    I’m not sure I believe that, Youri was no doubt trying to downplay it. Maybe the senior players have been told to do that after SJM let slip his honest feelings about Duran that one time. But I don’t think his antics will be much of a problem. He seemed to calm down after he spoke to some of the coaches and other players, and I’m sure Emery will have talked to him too and reassured him the decision was made before he scored and it was a bit of a freak scenario. If he’d scored five minutes earlier, Unai probably would have left him on for a bit whilst his tail was up. He was laughing and joking by the full-time whistle, so nothing to worry about in my opinion. He’s just signed a new contract anyway, so I doubt this will be enough to upset him.
  3. I grew up in Lichfield — I don’t live there now, but that’s just down the road from my sister’s place, and my brother-in-law goes there quite a lot. He’s quite the… erm, alcohol connoisseur. I’ll ask him if he’s tried it.
  4. Got my grey/green training top delivered today. Ordered it in Large, but I was nervous since a bunch of people here said to order a size up. I can confirm it fits rather well, which was a nice surprise! Really nice bit of kit, and the girlfriend was even impressed, and she hates football tops. It is on the more snug end of the spectrum, so maybe a size up is good for some folk. I prefer a slightly slimmer fit, though, especially for exercise clothes. Also, are they not doing the black training top in mens, or did they just sell out super fast on the website? I see the black ‘training presentation jacket’, but not the top. The women have it, and it’s really nice. Anyone know if exists in the men’s range?
  5. Yup, and besides, Dibu is now number 23, not Coutinho. It’s just not been updated. Wishful thinking.
  6. More a culture thing than a language issue in this case, I’d imagine, but it must be nice to have people around that speak your mother tongue.
  7. To be fair, that’s not his fault. You can’t expect a Utd fan to know anything about football.
  8. Or the work-experience kid printed the 9 upside down by accident.
  9. I think some people might expect Barkley to be more up to speed perhaps because he’s been here before, but we’re a completely different team now. He should get the same slack as all the other new players get, but he’s fast becoming the new scapegoat.
  10. Closer to a more realistic starting eleven, but still missing three of our best players (which obviously can’t be helped). First half ended goalless and we hit the post twice. I know we weren’t great, but perhaps if that team started the second half things would have started to click. We’ll never know.
  11. There’s no way we’re starting CL games with these disjointed lineups, so it’s all moot really. I know it sucks to lose, but I think we need some perspective.
  12. Hardly surprising when you have Digne and Donk at CB, a bunch of new/fringe players and two coming back from long-term injuries. Shame we didn’t decide to go for a more settled lineup with this game. I know that’s not the point of these friendlies, but it’s not much fun playing shit and losing, is it?
  13. What is the point of posts like this?
  14. We practically dominated possession for both halves, but got caught with the long ball in the first 45 and made a dreadful error in the second. We looked tired and sloppy, you know, like everyone does in preseason. Whether that’s down to lack of fitness and sharpness, the fact the opposition ARE fit and sharp due to them being midseason, the heat and humidity, the new players being unfamiliar with each other, that were missing key players, any other perfectly valid reason… Most likely it’s a combination of all of the above. Nothing to see here.
