The old Man Utd Thread

[Stevie]

Who knows, I wouldn't mind him leaving for Madrid in January. Theres no point in keeping a player that wants to play for another club. Its not fair to him and its not fair to our squad. I hope we get to sell him and at the same time patch up our midfield. Speaking on transfer windows I do hope we get Haaland, he seems like the type of mad lad we need at the moment. 

[Stevie]

Cant wait for today's game and I'm super exited  

 

On one hand I think City is going to score an early goal and then just press cruise control and dominate us for 70 minutes,  on the other hand I'm kinda hopeful as we tend to do better against stronger teams. Either City win 4-2 or we win 2-1

so what do we think 3/4-nill? ...to city lol

 

And Haaland would be interesting...but...if that release clause is true, everyone is going to be going for him! although, Ole already knows him, so that may help

 

And i've said it before, sell pogba, buy grealish. of course, villa would want an extortionate amount for him...

 

Update this post with the line up.

Thats my gut reaction, but then I gather my faith and become more optimistic

I'm a Utd fan, have been since I was old enough to know what football was.

 

That doesn't mean I haven't pulled my 3 players (Wan Bissaka, Maguire & James) from my FPL team for this game.

 

Should I post my Han Solo gif again?

[Stevie]

Common let’s fucking go!

 

 

edit: at 7 minutes I’m sweating bullets

[Stevie]

Pen???

[bradigor]

VAR got that spot on!

[feltmonkey]

Get in! 

[Stevie]

Rashford 

[footle]

Rashford should have had a hat trick by now. They’ll regret that.

[footle]

Bloody hell.

[feltmonkey]

This is like the Spurs game. We should be several goals up but we've only got one. I wonder if this time the missed chances will come back to haunt us. 

 

Breaking news it's 2-0!  

[feltmonkey]

I mean, the James chance, the Rashford one, the one against the bar... It so easily could have been 5-0.

[Stevie]

Wtf is this real life????

[Stevie]

 

 

2-0 HT

 

I dont think City will be able to keep up the pressure, but if they do we might not be able to resist. 

[5R7]

sat off waaaay too much at the end of that half! gotta get at em!

[feltmonkey]

Micah Richards is making a fool of himself by trying to claim that is a penalty against Fred. 

[5R7]

one of our forwards needs to stay on the half way line, so if summit goes over they can chase it down!

[feltmonkey]

How is that not a booking? 

 

Fantastic block by Lindelof a few minutes ago. 

[5R7]

that was clearly a yellow! you are clearly i few mins ahead lol

[feltmonkey]

Oh no goal for city! 

 

Not really. Not yet, anyway.

 

[Stevie]

City fans throwing bottles...classy.

edit: just 20 more minutes

[feltmonkey]

Great foul by Pereira. 

[Stevie]

Pereria on the field.....now we lose.

[feltmonkey]

This half seems to have been about four hours long already, and there's still another fifteen minutes to go. 

[feltmonkey]

Fuck

[5R7]

ffs, fucking zonal marking!

[feltmonkey]

Brilliant save DDG. 

[5R7]

...chucking defenders on...we should have tried attacking more!
