He should stop being their mate.  Levels have dropped, he's there to stop that and reset attitudes. He hasn't.  This is why we're 7th in a season where City are very beatable, and Chelsea are mid table. 

 

Being their "mate" is called his management style which is what brings him success.

The players you mentioned by the way, declining: Alisson, just no. Van Dijk, declined since his injury. Salah, 30 is NOT an attacking players peak.

Agree with this.  We are their main motivation and when we drop off, so do they.

 

20-21 We were shit all season apart from our extremely late run-in for third

 

It was United pushing City, and its United pushing City again..

 

swings and roundabouts and gruelling schedules.

 

[manwiththestick]

Horrible result that, let's hope we can soften the blow with three points.

Fucking shite we weren’t able to get those league titles in 18/19 and 21/22. Really deflating. 

It really pisses me off we got fuck all for putting up the sort of seasons we did - rexord breaking stuff.

 

Now looks like arsenal or the mancs might win a title and possibly only need about 85 pts to do so.

Yeah and City won it with a "measly" 86 points, they dropped off.

Doing a decent job this tan hag, I'm sorry to say.

Give a top manager lots of money to spend and you are almost nailed on to get results.

Can't wait for the clowns on match of the day tonight to defend that manc goal standing after they slagged ours v wolves that Salah scored and said it was wrong etc ....

If the rules were made by people understanding football both of those goals would be offside. 

[bossy]

We need to stop focussing on ‘what ifs’ and do what United are doing. Sort out defence, midfield and scoring. Simple, ha. Anyway, I hate United but fuck Pep the absolute prick.

Er nah, Benzema and Lewandowski maybe.  And plenty of others agree. Most, probably.

Zlatan and Giroud are having a coffee in the corner discussing who agrees.

United are doing what we desperately  need to start doing, be practical and play to the strengths we have rather than being this plaything for nearly every side on the league. We hold no fear for sides.

 

Didnt watch the game, good result for arsenal this. city 1 up then losing to 2 goals in 4 minutes?

 

I dont think Ten Hag has done anything remarkable except fuck Ronaldo off and install some discipline (which should be present in any team of professionals any way).

 

Other than that, I think it's a question of 'who wants the result most?' Again, every team, including us, will say they go on the field with that attitude. But clearly, we arent unlike other seasons when we have and managed to come from behind to win many games. Now, we're conceeding first far too often which says to me, the players dont believe they 'want it more.'

So Klopp agreed to pay a waning striker £400k a week. 

Van Dijk had a decent comeback from injury, his form has subsequently dropped off a cliff.

Alisson concedes loads. We've conceded 1 less than Everton.  

 

I'll accept a range of indicators in their defence, but 7th in January is one indicator you can't ignore.  It points to a myriad of issues. 

 

 

 

[Colonel Bumcunt]

Edit, we've now conceded as many as Everton.  

[El Rojo]

Lecce two up at half-time against Milan, which would leave Napoli ten points clear. They could have it won by March at this rate. 

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Two points between the bottom seven. I don't think I've ever seen it this close at this stage: there's usually one or two teams looking hopelessly adrift by now.

Rashford was clearly offside when the ball wax played to him but he left it for Fernandes who ran through and scored.

 

The linesman put his flag up though so clearly he thought Rashford was interfering with play, but VAR overruled him.

Atwell was ref expect decisions without thought.

Without question - but you watch the double standards in the analysis.

Which of those verifiable facts are hurting the most? 

YNWA etc 

[dockers_strike]

Got absolutely no love for city but how on Earth was Fernandez' goal allowed to stand when clearly offside Rashford makes a clear play for the ball like he did? Rashford clearly makes an attempt to play the ball. If running to within less than an metre of the ball isnt attempting to play it, I dont know what is.

 

But then I noticed who the ref was, Stuart Attwell, the very same ref who repeatedly screws us over. Then you have that utter clown in charge of our game today. Didnt even wait a minute to book Matip for a challenge after booking Dunk for a far worse foul and then wasted no time pointing to the spot for Brighton when he didnt give a 2nd look at the Brighton keeper knocking Mo over.

[Captain Howdy]

How the fuck was Fernades’ goal not offside?

[Captain Howdy]

Just saw dockers post. Fuck me if that’s not offside I really do give up.
