The players tomorrow will play in a kitchen when the match kicks off .

Sky sports "You may have heard of using tea bags to enhance your skin, or baking soda to clean the carpet, but what about garlic to improve a football pitch?
The root vegetable helps keep parasites from damaging the roots and United, along with a number of other Premier League clubs, have been using the technique once a week for the last five years.

It is used sporadically but kicks up quite a stink inside the stadium and can be smelled from half a mile away in a prevailing wind, but it is not expected to linger when Jurgen Klopp's team arrive at the weekend."

Some farmers put actual shit on their fields, it's madness I tell ya!

 

[Cee90]

A good way to stop Emery winning at Old Trafford.

 

[Slevs]

So we've come up with a plan against that vampire Firminho. Now what to do about Salah and Mane?

 

[Turnbl]

Let’s hope we show some bite

 

[tenpoless]

Now let's see if Klopp is actually a vampire.

Them miniature marbles that everybody used against Falcao should do the trick.

Mods please clove this thread!

 

[Catt]

Garlic is quite possibly the worst of all bad smells.

 

[Gandalf Greyhame]

Klopp is going to be very cross about this.

I love this man.

Garlic Fred !?

Nicely done.

 

[dwd]

Don’t clear the garlic from their box at half time, beat them at their own game.

 

[Fracture90]

Yep, remember reading about this few years back.

Good against vampires as well.

 

[Maticmaker]

Lets hope Rashford has a 'silver bullet' in his locker on Sunday!

 

[Tom Cato]

Garlic spray on Old Trafford for 5 years. Luis Suarez was sold to Barca in 2014.

This is no mere coincidence. Vampires move on when they are found out. #CrackPotTheories

 

[Hoof the ball]

Eww. They covered every Blade.

 

[ROFLUTION]

You should've taken a photo and uploaded it here so people on RedCafe can smell it.

 

[Will Singh]

They've been doing it for 5 years and can be smelt half a mile away but $ky decided now is the time to report it. Clutching on straws or what?

 

[Trizy]

Klopp licking his lips over having an excuse already in hand.

 

[Turnbl]

No wonder Moyes went with 81 crosses vs Fulham

 

[Adam-Utd]

Oh wow that’s interesting, gonna make it a clove game this.

 

[Paxi]
