Napalm Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 And replace Pogba with whom?.. I do agree though Pogba should leave for the sake of his career. Pogba is too much in the mold of Ozil and Alexis Sanchez. I'd rather see a mediocre player willing to work for a team than someone that turns up for a game whenever they're in the mood. United is at 2-3 years away from being anywhere close to challenging for the EPL.

United is at 2-3 years away from being anywhere close to challenging for the EPL.And who do you have in mind...of course it would need to be someone that can defend, attack, assist be playmaker and score goals. Cause that is what some United fans seem to expect from Pogba every time he takes to the field...and be happy about it. IMO United are going down the same road as Milan..if things aren't sorted out at the top at will be a lot longer than 2-3 years and as long as what United are still drawing sponsors and selling shirts Woodward will remain..

Kranswurm Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 Worrying signs at Spurs... players are all over the place.Eriksen has now missed 3 or 4 penalties this season already - his head is clearly not in it. Poch also looking lost and fumbling his way through things. This all goes back to Poch's brainfart to talk about possibly moving on if Spurs had won the Champions League - stability starts at the top and he's made himself look weak and the trickle down to the players is obvious. Very few of our players at the races at the moment, they all look distracted and to a degree disinterested. Very sad if this is the end of an era - Poch should of been our coach for at least another 5 years, building on a brilliant core of players, but if things don't turnaround fast, Levy is never one not to actWhat do you mean end of an era?Who has gone?They must just pull their finger out and keep at it like we are.
Andrew Steer Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 Isn't it a bit early to be so down about things, yes they are going through a difficult patch..but things can surely turn around.That's the thing, it's been a while we've been struggling... our CL run just covered over the cracks late last season.Our 'form' the last calendar year or so would not have gotten us top 6Problems have been building for some time - way too many players not delivering, and now clearly some contract issues and a break up in player manager relations. I would back Poch, I wish he had been backed more in the window too (and earlier) and there wasn't this uncertainty over key players... but it's happening in front of our eyes And the reality is, that if this carries on another month I won't be remotely surprised to see this all come to an end Very sad
IceCreamMan Posted September 25, 2019 Author Posted September 25, 2019 Here's hoping Chelsea, United and Liverpool win by 3 or more goals tonight. Took another flutter. 7/1 odds. William Hill must be sweating. Andrew Steer 1

Eriksen, Toby, Vertonghen all look on their way out.Dier, Alli and a few others look an absolute shadow of their former selvesHow long will Kane stay if we're losing our best players and stop competing? This is slightly outdated now, but a month ago we had 15 points from our last 15 league games... one game aside, not much has changed of late. It's not good, it's more than a blip unfortunately. https://www.90min.com/posts/6442056-the-premier-league-form-table-over-the-last-15-games-is-grim-reading-for-tottenham-fans

IceCreamMan Posted September 26, 2019 Author Posted September 26, 2019 United were lucky. Pogba missed a sitter. Fully appreciate it’s not a high profile competition and it’s not a full first team but Damn.

For a moment I thought we had a chance for a point. Spurs down to 10. Game was on. Alas, William got none of my cash today. I did not place a wager.

I did not place a wager.Another positive for Spurs... we've found our best RB option in Sissoko He's such a team player, limited for sure, but you got to love him. Glad to see some fight from the team RoddieJ 1

Glad to see some fight from the team Lloris had a great game, except for that faux pas. 3PM games are never broadcast here so ended up watching the lowlights only. We certainly deserved a point but thems the breaks. Premiership shaping up to be a good one this season. Watford, Newcastle, Norwich, Brighton , Villa, mighty Saints going to be in a tussle come april/May 2020 I reckon. Andrew Steer 1
ScottCM Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Arsenal vs Man U @ old trafford tonight. Guess it will be a case of who plays the least bad game that will be victorious. As both sides are crap or at the very least have crap departments (not just players) in the team. For us (Arsenal) it is our defense, but then again, its been our defense for the past decade.

I've gone for the score draw for Superbru... can see both defenses struggling and both teams being happy enough with a point after conceding a few. If anything I'd edge towards United being at home, but they're poor at the moment so it's hard to back them
