I didn't see the match yesterday as I was working.

 

From what I've seen in clips Pogba looked absolutely shite for them again.

 

He's the biggest myth in world football, looked good at Juve with Vidal and Pirlo next to him but has never done a fucking thing elsewhere. Scores the odd spectacular goal and that's it. 

 

Bruno Cheyrou with better PR.

I went to Whitby yesterday with my missus, my little girl and my in-laws dog fully intent on ignoring the build up and with the plan of trying not to look at my phone.
 

At about 4:30 we began ascent up the 199 steps to the abbey.

 

I hadn’t really noticed the time until I saw the clock face of the church at the top of the steps and my will power broke.

 

I checked.

 

Shit! 1-0 already. Get in.

 

Walked round to the abbey after a stop to look at the view over the town.

 

Gave in again and checked.

 

Wow! 2-0. Fucking yes!

 

Got back down to the town after a while and decided to go and have a pint, headed for the yacht club, “no children or dogs allowed” so we turned on our heels and back up towards the other pubs we’d passed.

 

Quick check. Get the fuck in! 3-0! Yes Mo!

 

“All welcome, including dogs”. This’ll do. Doesn’t look like they’ve got the match on either. Good. walked my girl round to the loo, then I went for a wee myself after. Headed back round.
 

4-0 now my missus said. Nah, still 3-0 and half time now, I said. Wrongly.

 

Nope, definitely 4. Hahahahaha.

 

Stayed in the pub til just after Pogba got his marching orders. The doorman was walking round complaining asking people if they were Liverpool fans, saying how much stick he’ll be getting when he works another pub later for karaoke night. “Full of Liverpool fans that pub” he said. A couple on the table opposite us watched the game on their phone. His face like thunder throughout, barely a word uttered. She half celebrated their “goal”, the doorman told the pub it’d been ruled out before she did. His Apple Watch alerts ahead of their mobile stream.

 

Oh what a lovely day.

Salah gets a 9 out of ten in the Guardian. What does a player - who scored a hattrick at Old Trafford, terrorised the opposition in a 0-5 win, scored in his tenth consecutive game - have to do to get ten out of ten I wonder?

There should never be a 10/10 as a great player will always think they can do better.

Be Ronaldo probably, mind you they would probably bring out an 11 for the lazy prick.

Another thing these games throw up is the difference between Klopp and Solksjaer. 

 

Klopp is one of the best managers in the world who's earned his stripes at other clubs over a long career, yet is self deprecating, personable and seemingly a pleasant guy. 

 

Solksjaer, like Lampard and Sherwood and similar ilk, seems supremely arrogant and just a bit of a cunt.

 

It's funny how overachievers like to circle the wagons in their own head to deflect blame. He also draws from the Moyes at Everton school of thought, that by saying stuff like 'I couldn't care less' about Liverpool's title prospects somehow endears him to the fans, rather than actually being good at his job.

 

If he worked in a call centre he'd be a 'team coach' this fuck. These types are the bane of society, no matter in what industry they find themselves.

A Utd supporting colleague messaged me this morning for thoughts on the game, I was quite reserved in my response and just said "good win, happy enough"

 

He then asked what should the club/board do next, I said they should do the obvious thing for the benefit of the club and it's fans, green and gold Ronaldo scarves.

 

No response.

9 goals now in our last two visits to the Theatre of Screams....

 

Even when they dominated under Ferguson we never got a hiding like yesterday and we have had some brutal sides down the years (I'm not counting the 4-0 Mike Riley inspired game when he sent off Hypia after 5 minutes) .

The closest to yesterday was probably when they went 3 up after 20 minutes in 1994 at Anfield, I remember standing on the Kop thinking this could get fucking horrible...Luckily we got it back to 2-3 before half time and the rest is history

Remove his shirt revealing a T-shirt that shows support for a green transition.
