I thought they were boycotting this game or are they putting Norwich scarves away now Glazers spending money even though they spent more than the oil cheats

Wait, you're not suggesting that their angry fans are fickle cunts whose vitriol is easily pacified at the hint of a shiny, overly expensive new toy coming in are you?

 

Shame on you.

Unfortunately we're under as much pressure,different pressures albeit,  as they are to get a result. 

It's ridiculous that we have to be under such pressure in fucking August, but given that we're up against the cheating cunts, that's the new reality. 

And as we're going behind in every fucking game to different types of goals, it would be nice to get ahead here and relax.  Go behind again, and we'll be in a world of hurt. 

Don't care how we play, just fucking win by any means necessary. 

Mo and Virgil. 0-2 please and thanks. 

 

 

Yeah 90 plus points is not normal - but it has become the normal now and you can bet your life it will be required again this season.

 

The room for error is so small now and of course fact we have done 4 out of what i reckon will be 20 max we had to play with puts us under it (ridiculously) already.

 

About 16 pts left to play with in 36 games IMO.

 

Madness.

Can't help but be concerned about this game.  Yes they are a mediocre team in poor form but if ever there was a game for them to kick start their season it is against us.  Likewsie could be said of us tbf though.  I'm just worried we'll dominate, they'll stick 9 men behind the ball and look to hit us on the break.  ball in behind trent and out lazy arse defending of late will just let their forwards run in on goal.

Monday?? Again?!

 

Has there ever been a team to get two Mondays in a row, much less two of the first three games in a season?

This must be what it feels like when the powers that be are out to get you.

No, we’re not. We could finish 6th and I’d still not feel worried about us. They are fucked and we are in phase two…Klopp is at the wheel. He’s rebuilding us and I feel fine.

[s(k)aturation]

 

Rebuild? 

Phew, that's OK then. We can all relax.

If we go behind, we will regroup and find a way to get at least a draw.

If they go behind, they will shit the bed and get hammered

 

[Red Shift]

Got a bad feeling about this game. Add to that, I don’t like Mondays.

If we scrape our 3rd draw of the campaign, I’ll be happy. I’ll watch the 1st half and take it from there.

[Bobby Hundreds]

They can be good at counter attacks and we seem to be vulnerable as fuck from them lately. My biggest concern though is our finishing recently its like a chippendale fucking a fatty for a bet. I've no idea what to expect.

Yeah it's crazy, and we might go to Old Trafford 7 points behind Man City. 

 

But we've only got ourselves to blame by taking 2 points from Fulham and Palace, unfortunately.

Absolutely - and it is this mad new normal that makes those results so gutting.

 

Instead of shrug of the shoulders and a 'its dead early plenty of time to put it right' which would have been case in years gone by it is 'oh fuck there goes a massive chunk of a tiny nit of leeway in just first two games'....

 

It is to me anyway really draining.

 

All those titles the mancs won for example in the 90's and 00's they never had to be at the level we are being asked to be at every fucking week now....they have titles where they lost 6/7 times and got less than 80 pts.....as we do too of course - 1990 we won it with just 79...10 draws 5 losses.

 

In 97 the mancs won it with 75...12 draws and 5 losses....that is virtually half their games they failed to win, but still won title.

 

So draws and losses that were once no problem are now seen as a disaster - it is really shite, but that is where we are.

Tell me why.

Shit game to go into. If we don't get the win, I'm laying the blame at the feet of FSG.

Nah it'll definitely be on Putin.

[El Dangerous]

Only way United get anything against us is if they flood the midfield and hit us with pace on the break.  This would mean McTominay and Fred not being shit and Rashford and Sancho remembering they’re footballers. I’m quietly confident. Hopefully they start Erikson, Bruno and Ronaldo and we annihilate them.

[niallers]

United had 67% possession last week and over 300 more passes than Brentford. They'll be the Brentford on Monday and any team is vulnerable to being hit on the break so we need to be clinical with our chances when we get them. 

[magicrat]

I am so fed up watching s chase games after squandering chance after chance to take the lead.  Score first and we win more games , simples.

As I typed it I knew . Fully deserved.

We really need to be more clinical from the off anymore.
