Sigh Toro..you guys could've at least tried to take points off Inter.

 

What's with these clubs that save their best performances for us and then roll over for other games [emoji849][emoji6]

Sheffield making United look ordinary.

 

Edit: Game turned on its head later in the game. United probably a lil unlucky not to take the win but that's football

Thank goodness for that.

 

A win against the goooners tomorrow will do us the world of good. And I got such good odds at William Hill I could not resist a wee wager.

 

 

Not to be but we will take a point. Cashed in when we were 2 1 up so made 30 quid too.

 

Though break that, you guys outplayed us and deserved to take the W. Big ramblings going on that Emery might get the boot today.

I thought that should Arsenal have lost he would be booted.

 

This firing of Poch has made chairmen and chairwomen realise that they should take a hard look at their teams. Emery, Ole , silva , Ralph and the other under perfroming managers are going to be looked at very critically in the next week or 2 I reckon. Believe Silva will be next, Pellegrini possibly

 

Edit: will be surprised if Silva still in charge come satruday.

Look there is no question the coaches you mentioned are not doing very well.. not at all.. but again I ask..who would you replace them with.

[Gen]

It is a really good thing we have already qualified for the next round..

 

DE Ligt dislocated his should of Saturday..remarkably he actually finished the game

 

Costa can't catch a break and is out for 2 weeks..again.

 

Berbardeschi picked up some sort of injury.. okay he is struggling under Sarri.. but still.

 

And tomorrow we face Atletico[emoji85]

I like Big Sam. I make no bones about that.

 

I like Redknapp although I don't think he is in the market these days.

 

Poch out of a job. Maybe not looking though.

 

Moyes actively looking. REckon he would be possible to replace Silva. Fans love him that side.

[Andrew Steer]

If I was United I would be all over Poch... I imagine he has plenty of suitors though, possibly better ones too. United squad just needs so much work it's actually quite scary

 

Good start for Mourinho... played players in their positions, can't have really changed too much in such a short time, but it's a good start. Also managed to get the best out of Dele with some clever build up banter. 

Hopefully the start of something good

Lots of managers on thin ground - I'd be surprised if we don't have a couple more out the door before year end

What qualities do you thing they would bring in that would be an improvement to what they already have.

And it was quite pretty too

It wasn’t exactly difficult to get the guys playing the attractive brand, but is was good that he recognized the shortcomings I.e. fatigue, emotions, exertion, etc.

Of there is still a way to go, but they’ve come through with the first step... COYS

[RoddieJ]

Okay, just going to say that I am not going to comment on the other EPL teams’ problems, whether it being coaching or players’ attitude... It’s difficult enough keeping up with my own team, lol... COYS

[IceCreamMan]

Some interesting Leicester stats

I have watched a number of their games this season including the catastrophe at St Mary's and their lightning speed up front is something to behold. The league winning season might make a come back in spite of not having Ngolo or Macquire.

Off to the pub tonight with my Spurs fan mate. Should be a comfortable win I reckon. Cant afford anything else.

They're a very good team, well balanced and can cause anyone huge problems on the counter... two of their players I was hoping Poch would buy but didn't, Maddison and Tielemans.

 

I'm also a bit bummed, as I remember reading a betting pundit saying Vardy was great odds for top goal scorer, it was well over 15-1 if I recall. Needless to say I liked the bet, but did nothing about it.

[Gen]

And breathe..good first half Juve playing well, connecting passes..lovely one touch passing..solid in defense.

 

But that goal from Dybala[emoji184][emoji173][emoji173][emoji173] impossible angle..what a free kick.
