Re: Weekend Football

I wouldn't say last night was the final straw but they can't keep losing to crap teams.

Re: Weekend Football

What a terrific game Villa v Man City is.

And what an incredible job Emrie has done. They have battered City playing some great football.

The improvement in Leon Bailey is nothing short of gobsmacking

The last few days have produced some brilliant games.

Re: Weekend Football

Good to see Barkley seems to be playing well again.

And Osho - well, he just makes you want to throttle someone.

Is Arteta capable of reversing his decision re the ‘keeper? Ramsdale had his brain fart moments but he’s a better bet than Raya who is becoming a bit of a liability.

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

Journalists from Sky, ESPN, Manchester Evening News and the Mirror have been banned from today's Man Utd news conference after reporting some players were unhappy with Ten Hag.

Re: Weekend Football

Possibly. But I do find it surprising that the most successful manager of all time has had an almost unbroken succession of failures in management from his pupils. It seems like the longer a player was with him, the less likely they are to be successful in management. And pretty much the same applie...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Eastleigh (a)

Christ alive, as Ian has been saying for months, Mbengue is a truly awful defender. The quality of delivery in the 1st half particularly was worse than you’d see in a Sunday League Reserves game. Time after time aiming for people about 20 ft tall. Ebhi was useless. Elliott was useless. Savage was us...

Re: Weekend Football

'Wayne Rooneys Birmingham', in the play offs when he took over, won 1 in 9, now in 15th, 3 points above 21st I wonder what is says about Ferguson when the most successful manager from his many years as Man Utd boss is a toss up between Gordon Strachan, Steve Bruce and Mark Hughes.

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

Rashford is becoming a joke of a player.

Bags of talent - pathetic mentality.

I’d go so far as to say he’s a disgrace.

He was starting to look a lot better last season, and a reasonably regular starter up until his injury.

Re: Weekend Football

I don’t care about Spursiness and all that shite - they were great to watch under Poch, inevitably fcuking awful under Mourinho and Conte, and now, whatever the squad challenges are sticking to Ange’s principals and play some great football.

Long may it continue.

Re: Weekend Football

YorkshireRoyal99 Spurs must be absolutely kicking themselves if they do end up losing to Villa here given how the game has gone.


Yes, but for the neutral it was a terrific game to watch. 2 very good footballing teams.

Spurs are always on the front foot, too many times just one foot too many.

Snowflake Royal I think we've had enough chances now to count as our glaring miss rather than making the game safe


Or the same gaffe?

Re: England - the future....

Franchise FC
Royal Rother I’m not sure what worse - Dion Dublin’s constant drivel, the referee, or Rashford’s cameo.

One particular Rashford effort of note
Receives the ball tight to the left hand touchline ….. and turns left


Yeah, that was pretty good. As was the free kick.

Re: England - the future....

He both praises and criticises at the wrong time which is some achievement.

And he speaks more than the actual commentator.

Stick him in the jungle and after 24 hours the campmates would be screaming “FTLOG IACGMOOH!!”
