That's where Mourinho lost the game. Clueless cunt

[TheHowieLama]

I am starting to like Mou

[manwiththestick]

They missed their talismanic captain tonight.

[Jennings]

Get Jose's interview on!!

[magicrat]

"I prefer to go it " says Mourinho in his interview from an alternate reality

[Jennings]

Jose: "I knew we were in trouble when I saw Jones".

 

OUCH!

[magicrat]

Just now, Jennings said:

Jose: "I knew we were in trouble when I saw Jones".

 

OUCH!

He say Jones and Bailly to be fair. How bad must Bailly be at pens

[Anubis]

Well, there was no part of that ending which wasn't massively entertaining. As soon as I saw Jones walking towards the area I said "that's a miss" out loud, and sniggered. And he didn't disappoint.

And whichever mid to lower table team he ends up playing for will be lucky to have him, I'm sure. 

Worth persisting IMO. Not many players have the audacity as well as skill to execute that free kick, let alone against the biggest team in the world. Might be something there.

Oh, Aye. 

 

Yeah, he'll never make it with us. Just like the others that went on loan and didn't make it for us.

Real in the Carbuncle Cup?

I liked the cut of his jib in interview.

 

Sky mong started with "well can you believe it" and Wilson very calmly and confidently said "yeah" and went on to say they know what they can do....

 

Totally taking the air out of the sky mongs balloon who clearly wanted him to come across as a giddy kid who has just won a game against the mighty man utd at the theatre of wet dreams and push the agenda of what a shock and amazing result it was...a totally calm and collected and almost dismissive Wilson was having none of it

Fair point. Richest then. My point is that he wasn’t at all overwhelmed by the occasion. I like his arrogance.

I knew it would. I like the cunt of your gin.

That was a fantastic cup game! Brilliant free kick from Harry but when mop head scored I was sure the mancs were going to win. Brilliant brilliant pens, but as soon as I saw Jones I knew he’d miss! 

Lovely stuff

[Einch]

The Telegraph minute by minute was fun. Phil Jones described as a Yeti amongst Elves had me in stitches.

What happened to other players after going on loan should not be equated to what will happen to the players going on loan now. Different players, and depending on when they went on loan, possibly quite a different club.

 

What Wilson has that most of the young players who went on loan didn't have, is goals, and they can take you a long way. He may not make it with us, but him, and in my opinion Woodburn, have a better chance than any who have gone on loan before.

I agree, it shouldn’t be equated with it. Just one of the reasons I didn’t do it. I was just saying that he’ll end up like the others. Not that the different events have any sort of correlation or equivalence.

 

As for Wilson, It is going to get harder and harder to break in as the team gets better and better. Especially as an attacker. Then you need to consider the market for young players like him, the money we’ve got for players like him recently, and the money teams who are desperate for attacking players have and are willing to spend. I would be very surprised if he does what others couldn’t, and drag himself out of the shop window that is the modern loan system.

I watched the penalties after the fact for my viewing pleasure.

 

The utd players all celebrated their pens like it was a cup final; the Derby players all just jogged back to the centre circle.

[The Woolster]

Mason Mount looks to be some player. Its great to see 2 young players who are also on loan like him and Wilson on free kick duties, think Lampard is showing some promising early signs in his managerial career.

 

I know many don't care, but with the likes of Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Mason Mount, Phil Foden, Jadon Sancho, Ryan Sessgnon and others coming through, and added to the likes of Ali, Sterling and Rashford, England could have a fantastic team in a few years

[Numero Veinticinco]

I think the more important thing is whether or not playing on loan lower in the league system and doing well means going back to their club and being given a chance, or being sold as they can't break through. Say, for example, Harry Wilson and Mason Mount have brilliant seasons, Ryan Kent too, they come back to their clubs... what then? At the very best, a bit part player for the Carabao cup? Mount goes away, plays 29 games for Vitesse Arnhem, scores 1 in 3. Comes back, and straight in for... a loan to Derby. Harry Wilson, older then Joe Gomez, goes away and scores fucking 7 in 13, comes back... loan to Derby. 

 

We either need to start giving these players chances and rotating them in at the expense of other attackers, or we sell them so they can build their career in the Premier League, which is actually where they need to be to prove they can do it. That's going to be much easier for them if they don't have the likes of Mane, Salah, Kante, et al ahead of them. So managers need to give them a way in, but are under such pressure to perform that it's difficult and end up selling them for 10-20m.

Has Brands been on the phone yet?

Let's win something first, then the next step will be giving the young'uns a go.
