Things could had been very different.


Norwich? Wolves? Newcastle?

The reason we drew with Spurs was shite defending. Anfield was shite defending accompanied by shite finishing. Today was a dumb tackle followed by a lack of effort and maybe willingness to put a foot in leading up to the second goal, possibly because our main ball winner is being deployed as a CB and we are now soft as fuck in front of a very poor excuse for a back 4.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Cute that it means so much to United now too.


For me his biggest mistake has been moving Fern. Double whammy. The back four is still shit but we are now soft as fuck in the middle. We were out-muscled leading up to the second goal. Wouldn't have happened with Fern in his natural position.

last seconds of the game, his tackle at Rashford. Shows clear as day what we are missing with him in the wrong position.

What happened to Batman? Astonishing and uncorrected tactics from Pep in the first half - our pressing line far too deep. Tbh - our defensive shortcomings needed to be addressed in the summer. Fern was key in his former role and was irreplaceable, solving that problem needs a new CB and LB at least. That's hopefully the last we'll see of Angelino - just not our level, Stones is also struggling to justify a starting berth, even ahead of Otter, who is clearly in decline.Devastating day, chickens coming home to roost welkl short of Christmas.

we should get to safety points in the league and play all the youngsters thereafter , we are being systematically cheated out of results.

Screw 'em , write the league off and make them suffer by not seeing the talent at the club ( not the fans but the television audience).

In a pub watching the game today , where none of the apparent Rag fans bought an effing drink ? how should that work ?

The games should not be subscription based . Then the plebs can watch in their dumpsters instead of an expensive pub and maybe the price of a pint will go down.

What gets me is we all knew what to expect off rags, get it forward to Gashford et al, but nothing was done to counter it, add that to Jesus not good enough, Sterling should be on right, Sane missed, left back problems, need to get top four cemented now, anything else bonus.

“The best talent I’ve ever seen” 19 years old, absolutely fucking rearing to go......doesn’t get near the pitch.....
A young defender who “never makes a mistake “.....doesn’t get near the pitch. Angelino who is a decent player at best gets thrown under a bus and is not ready, and certainly not a defender, plays 90 mins. Pep has done us proud the last two seasons, but this one..? He’s up his own arse.
Fern HAS to play in midfield.......HAS to, it’s so bloody obvious. I’m distraught, it could have been so different.
My question to Pep is what is Gundog the answer to, what’s the fucking question ???..again a decent player but not the answer to anything. We need a spark and Pep doesn’t have one. Play the youngsters you cunt !!!!!

His kid is constantly singing City songs and wearing a City kit on Instagram. Stones is shagging birds and no caring about City.

Fern, as much as I love him, is 34. We need to rebuild in key areas and he will not be part of that process.

Don't worry. His contract is up at the end of the season and he's not being offered.
