Other football - 2017/18 edition.

[Aventus]

That may be so, but we both know damn well what that desperate badger bating bastard is capable of.

Didn't realise he wanked off badgers too.

 

I had my suspicions but I didn't think the dirty bastard would actually do it.

[Aventus]

Southampton winning the net spend trophy thanks to us.

 

We'll have to settle for third, hopefully Klopp can do a bit of shrewd business in the summer and close the gap, especially if Southampton and Swansea both get relegated.

[an tha]

Klopp is a fucking miracle worker to have us where he does with that kind of spend....inagine where we could possibly be with the purse strings loosened

[Bobby Hundreds]

The money city and united have invested into their team compared to the rest boggles the mind, at least city play like an expensive team.

[Vincent Vega]

Everton £165m (snigggers).

 

I reckon Palace and West Ham will be in big financial trouble if they get relegated.

[sir roger]

Blimey , Gary Neville picking his team of the season on SSN and going with Robbo and Bobby along with Mo. Always liked Gary !!

[Trumo]

Are we sure Arteta wasn't actually sold for a world record fee?

A decent reminder that the expectations for United should be roughly the same as those for City. 

 

One is always portrayed as the team with all the money, while United is grouped in with us, Spurs, Chelsea, and Arsenal. It's bollocks. Mourinho is failing with the resources he has available and if it wasn't for De Gea he'd be failing miserably.

[Captain]

Quite contrary, I can't remember ever seeing anyone lumping us in with Man U when it comes to spending.

[Jairzinho]

Quite contrary, I can't remember ever seeing anyone lumping us in with Man U when it comes to spending.

 

Klopp and Mourinho are often judged as if they have similar resources and expectations.

 

"Klopp is lauded, yet Mourinho has United above them in the league" type stuff.

 

Same with Pochettino. "Yeah but Tottenham haven't won anything, whilst Mourinho won the League Cup..." etc

 

It isn't so much that they're lumped in with us when talking about resources, it's that they barely mention the resources when talking about the two of us. The only criticism of United is about their appalling style of football. Whilst true, it is appalling, they're also failing regardless. They should be much closer to City and in the CL semis every season with the resources they have.

 

Mourinho will fail again on both scores next season, in my opinion. 

[Dr Nowt]

Yeah but, you know, football heritage and that.

[Bjornebye]

Murty sacked by r*ngers. Gerrard must be keen on it. Fuckety fuck fuck 

[Aventus]

What we reckon for tonight then?

 

I know Real are obviously favourites but they shipped 3 goals to Juve at their own gaff so I reckon Bayern might make a decent go of it.

[Jim Lahey]

I know Real are obviously favourites but they shipped 3 goals to Juve at their own gaff so I reckon Bayern might make a decent go of it.

I reckon Real are nailed on with the help of the twelfth man i.e. the ref

[Creator Supreme]

They'll present Real with the trophy tonight!

[Chip Butty]

I'd generally plumb for Real, but after the Juve game and how they nearly took them to extra time, there may well be a surprise.

 

Bayern will create chances, they just have to make sure they take them. Score first and its game on.

[El Rojo]

Oooh I say. Game on.

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

Madrid 0 Bayern 1

 

3 mins

 

Game fucking on.

[El Rojo]

Still not fully sure what the best outcome is for us here.

[Sweeney287]

Let's see what Madrid are made of now!

[Grinch]

Still not fully sure what the best outcome is for us here.

 

Madrid easily imo.   Even then it will be our hardest game in a very long time.   Both of these are miles ahead of anything we face domestically., 

[El Rojo]

Kimmich sounds like some new superfood.

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

This is still a top notch Bayern starting XI for such a depleted side.

[Anubis]

Well that didn't last long.

[El Rojo]

THAT GOAL DOESN’T CHANGE MUCH FOR BAYERN - THEY STILL NEED TO SCORE AGAIN.
