  1. Not to worry, Kobbie "the human turnstyle" Mainoo will save the club.
  2. We've had much better managers with much, much better squads, who never realistically sniffed SFs. England as a squad are pretty overrated. The fact that we clamour for Ollie and Ezri to be in the squad kinda says everything. We have genuine World class talents in Kane and Bellingham, and depth at right back. What else? The likes of Luke Shaw, Rashford are massively overrated and often start for us.
  3. He's clearly lost the dressing room, and his comments don't help around the whole feeling with him. I think he massively overachieved with a mediocre squad this year, and to be honest United are about where they should be this season. Sack him and they'll likely end up at about Chelsea level because there's basically no quality in the squad.
  4. What sets it apart from any other post apocalyptic thing? I've heard of the games but never played them.
  5. I've never understood this take. France have finished in the top 2 in 3 of the last 4 tournaments, with a second XI that is probably in the top 5 in the World. I still think there is a general massive disrespect in England to other nations. Like at the last Euros when people complained we "only" beat Croatia 1-0. A result that was sandwiched between 2nd and 3rd place World Cup finished for this "old" team.
  6. Watched out of morbid curiosity. Blues started well, but after about 7 minutes they created nothing and Rotherham probably should've won. Abysmal football.
  7. They've barely got out of 2nd gear yet and top of the league. Genuine chance to win it this season.
  8. Throwing everyone up for a throw-in in the last minute is a bit mad.
  9. Give it time and Doku's natural instincts will be trained out of him as well.
  10. Warsaw are really contradicting themselves with every statement they release. First it was "Villa wouldn't let any of our fans in to the stadium, this incited the violence" Then it was "None of the fans causing violence had tickets" Now its "We returned out tickets to the host club" So they didn't give tickets to their own fans, expceted them to be let in the stadium, but also don't claim them because they were ticketless and causing violence. What!?
  11. Yeah, all these YouTube pundits think Martinez is massively overrated. They'll spout stats for the likes of Onana, ignoring that Emi over the last 18 months is statistically brilliant.
  12. I don't think it matters who we get, people will rewrite history to fit the narrative. Beat Croatia last time and they were 'too old'. Sandwiched between a 2nd and 3rd place finish at the World Cup.
  13. I need to watch the other one he did, think it was a short. My dad said it was brilliant.
  14. Got around to Asteroid City. Stylish and visually nice as always from Anderson, but from a story point of view I just didn't get it. Maybe I'm missing something, but I was lost.
  15. Thought Saw X was good as well, I've been really disappointed by their recent entries so this was a nice surprise. Across the Spider-Verse probably my favourite this year, but I've just not been able to see much.
  16. "They advised the meeting that they would meet with their supporters at 2.30pm and communicate the decision at 3pm but advised there was a possibility that they would not accept the tickets. Despite repeated requests before and after the 3pm deadline for a decision, there was no communication until 4pm when Legia informed Aston Villa that they wished to receive their ticket allocation." It's this bit I find so odd. Legia hav to ask their fans if they want tickets? Do Legia fans think that they can just rock up to a game and be let in without them?
  17. Agreed. I was 6 when webeat Man U and 8 when we beat Leeds. It saddens me that i more or less don't reremember '94 and barely remember '96. I want new memories that will last with me.
  18. Agreed. Made a few of those defence splitting balls inside the full back that Pau's brilliant at.
  19. That's entirely my point though. For what? In 10 years what are their memories from the 2010s? Losing a final? Beating Arsenal a few times? None of that compares to an actual trophy.
  20. Thought he did a job well yesterday. Loved him charging back the full length of the pitch to his own corner flag. Bags of enthusiasm.
  21. Man U are involved, UEFA would make up whatever loophole they needed.
  22. Trophy and not a second's hesitation. Spurs made the CL a number of times, have had some of the World's finest players in their squad... for what?
  23. I think even if we lose by 1 and Legia win by 1 we still win the group. Like you say, very comfortable position against a team that barely touched the ball in our half in the first game.
  24. Well said mate. Superb job in a very difficult situation.
  25. Yeah, he had a fairly rough first half. Well taken goal and minutes in the bank though.
