Calm down mate, they're just posts on a football forum from a poster you'll never meet. No need to get so upset.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
I predict Liverpool to win the league this season.
I actually am trying to jinx them.

This is finishing 4 or 5 nil now.
Maddison's defending on both corners was shocking, clear pen and then gets nowhere near Firminio.

It's amazing how often Liverpool seem to get the break of the play/ the ball. Every bounce, every tackle, every chance seems to fall their way. At the perfect times too. This goal just before HT when Leicester were in the ascendency has killed them off. It's fecking sickening.
So winning is enough to draw comparison with united of old? Are they like Barca of old? Real Madrid of old?juventus of old?
Or are the united of old comparisons just more unnecessary moaning about us?
Movement and pressing.
Just hand over the title to them. They're fantastic whereas we're just awful.
Tbf taking a corner isn't the most difficult thing in the world, but we feck them up week in week out.
We’ve been downright poor after our first goal, good thing is Leicester aren’t even threatening either so far.
Why make a post if not open to interpretation? Interested to know how I might have something so utterly wrong.
I think you are not looking at reality.
You just knew that after that decent spell without Leicester scoring, they'd score a second goal they didn't deserve.
Is Gray up front really a better option than Iheanacho or Okazaki?
I won't get overly excited untill we do the business against Spurs in a fortnight.
You’re being hard on yourselves, you’re like united 99 pal
Just shows you how crap we are, we struggled against this lot at home.
MASSIVE pressure on City later.
They look intolerably good. feckers will be up there with City.
Think we've defended well. Nice to see that we can be comfortable without the ball as well.
It's not luck by any means. It's a result of their tactics. And yea, mostly, movement as a commenter above also mentioned.
It’s probably the biggest advantage to a high pressing system. It was especially pronounced in Pep’s Barcelona. Every second ball seemed to always fall to one of their players. Happens with current city as well.
Leicester need a focal point up front. Albrighton tossing high balls into a bunch of midgets and wingers.
Badly missing Vardy
12 outta 12 for Liverpool ffs
12 outta 12 for Liverpool ffs
Missing Vardy massively. Leicester been very poor, 2-0 probably flatters Liverpool but they certainly deserve to be winning
OK. there is not a chance is hell United would be 2-0 up away to Leicester.
You can have your blinkers on as much you like, you can call me a closet liverpool fan, but there's no denying this Liverpool team are looking something special right now. The way they're playing, attacking football, fullbacks on the overlap, reminds me on United of the old. Just my opinion of course, but as is the nature of posters on this forum, they will attack you if they don;t agree with you. So go ahead and attack me all you want.
This will end 0:2 “unless something changes in the second half”
It just shows the value of quality, clinical attackers. You can play like piss for forty minutes and be 2-0 up.
Interesting how the United supporters wank over Liverpool's performance, but you actually see that they've not been good.
United of old. Hyperbolic rubbish. Unnecessary comparison. You’ve got a Liverpool fan here saying they’ve been poor, some pundits saying the same. But winning equals united of old. It just makes no sense. Like saying if Bournemouth are winning later it’s like united of old.
Early days and I don’t want to jinx or ge carried away, but loving how we give so few opportunities away (usually) the reason why Becker has had the fewest saves to make so far. Looking well drilled defensively although I’m still scarred mentally from the last 8 years.
No Vardy no party
apart from that Gray shot, you've kept them relatively quiet which is rare for a Liverpool side away from home.
Their recruitment has been hit after hit. Ours has been dud after dud. Unfortunately this day was coming
The deflection for their first goal was luck mind. The rebound for Mane was the perfect first touch!
Leicester were the better side between your two goals just like Palace were.
I think you lot are fortunate to have a 2-0 lead.
We were good for first 15-20 mins then Gini played a bad short pass which let Leicester in and they’ve been much better team since. Firmino’s goal was against run of play.
Keite and Fabinho are not hits yet at all.
Home to Newcastle? Doesn't get more high pressure than that
It’s not like they’re pummelling our goal though. Defensively we’ve dealt with them fairly well but offensively I think we were poor.
