Re: Is Pep a genius?

Snowflake Royal No, of coursehe isn’t a genius. He hasn’t brought any spectacular new innovations to football, or out thought his opposition.

He's been bankrolled to success and built a reputation that allows him to manage huge egos successfully.

How do you think he’s built that reputation ?

Re: Rival Watch

For that Play Off final versus Bolton, it always seemed to me that Bolton and Middlesborough were by far the 2 best sides in the division that season and that had there been 2 auto spots rather than just the 1, Bolton would have had it. We were the 3rd best side in the Division that season (the way...

Re: We're ManchesteROFL United, we do what we want

Well, that was thoroughly enjoyable. Being forced to play woefully out of form Casemiro out of position due to injuries is bad enough without having a manager who has shown throughout his time there that he has no idea to how to set up a defensive structure, which was a recipe for disaster that occ...

Re: We're ManchesteROFL United, we do what we want

Isn't it a plus that Maguire is out? :wink: Unfortunately for England he has just about 7 weeks to get fit. Unfortunately for England, he remains one of the best two CB’s available, so he’d better be fit Personally think Stones, Guehi, Colwill and Konsa are better options if all fit, but at the end...

Leverkusen equalled Benfica's unbeaten record with a 5-1 away win at Frankfurt - 48 unbeaten in all competitions. They were unplayable yesterday and with Bochum (a) and Augsburg (H) to play, you would be a brave man to bet against them completing the league season undefeated. You would also expect ...

3rd win in a row for mine and El Franquicia's boys, FC Cartagena, and you would think that should be enough to avoid relegation really. What a 2nd half of the season! they won just 1 of their first 17 games they had 9 points and were somewhat adrift at the bottom. In the 15 games after that they go...

Birmingham City's relegation got my thinking, they can be added to the list of teams I've seen us play in the top 3 tiers. Having followed the club closely since 99/00 or so, the list currently includes Wigan, Bolton, Charlton, Stoke, Portsmouth, Derby and Swansea to my memory. Got me thinking, we ...

It's ludicrous. This is meant to be a tool to resolve contentious moments and areas of "unsurety". I don't know what PGMOL has been telling its officials but to me it seems they're being told to not referee or make decisions or if they're not told that they seem to let VAR decide everythi...

Re: Weekend Football

Ascotexgunner Leeds apparently owe 180 million in unpaid transfer fees.....surely an FFP breach is on the cards if they fail to go up.

Shirley, that’s not an FFP breach, it’s a football creditor regulation that’s been around for decades
