How did you get on in the mid 90s?
I can still see it now. Nicky Summerbee dribbling along aimlessly out of defence, runs into Nigel Clough. Ball runs free to Ryan Giggs.
He advances toward the penalty area. Keith Curle, standing in his way, points at the top left corner of the goal with his right arm (as he bizarrely was known to do). Giggs hits it right into said top corner. Immel didn't see it, as he couldn't see shots from outside the area.
Absolute fucking shambles. But ah, they were great them days!
Point is, are we really that bad now?
Two kids came along, not as much time on my hands but essentially we had zero reason to be great back then. In this modern era with the resources at our disposal and arguably much better players we dont really have any excuses for some of the shite we have watched. Watching games these days just winds me up

Left wing is his secondary position (listed on transfremarkt). Got to be better than Doku as a starter, pace over bamboozling and fading.

I read this week that Doku and Haaland have been working on a secret code to get the crosses working

There's a few people who we need to get shot of in 24 hours.

I know, pal, but I would actually love to see a winger there and maybe Marmoush behind Erling.
