[El Zoido]

it serious foul play... and that's a red. Gary is right

It’s not, serious foul play has to be considered endangering the opponent, which clearly isn’t the case here.

 

[NoLogo]

He hasn't commented on it.

He was on Sky Sports during half time and he was fecking fuming over this disgrace of a performance.

 

[Dobba]

So only the FA cup to play for this season.

feck the FA Cup, can't we go and play some tournament in Brazil again?

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

Evra is absolutely dejected

 

[DomesticTadpole]

We might need Cavani now Martial banned.

 

[Buster15]

What a pity this was behind closed doors. This lot need to experience a toxic atmosphere from their own supporters.

I thought that the toxic atmosphere ended when Jose was sacked.

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

I foresee a smug and nauseating prick in your not-so-distant future.

It has already started. We are all in this group text for PL Fantasy. My Boss is Liverpool and I have a Spurs co-worker and 2 Chelsea. They have all been yapping. I told them I'm not going to work tomorrow because I need a mental health day. My Boss's reply : It won't be the last one this season.

 

[Deery]

Any need for the Sky host to be so exuberant at United getting whipped? fecking cnut!

 

[Enfant terrible]

I want a 100% wage donation towards Rashford's campaign.

For the next 6 months

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Why is Ole smirking at the officials and Tottenham players?

What do you want him to do ? We have enough problems with him and the team, dont make up shit thats not there !!

 

[hungrywing]

And SAF before that

Yep.

 

[jesperjaap]

Anybody thinkign we needed 2/3 quality additions or that the poor start was due to fitness....still think that?

Forgetting recruitment, for me this startign eleven is our best starting eleven.....but you look throughout the side, it is actually quality wise pretty good....consistentcy wise it is dreadful though. DeGea, Bailly, Shaw, Pogba, Rashford and Martial are ALL players that have been inconsistent throughout the last 2/3 seasons, thats half the side. You cant win trophies when half the side are liek that, ability or not. As many moments of woefulsness as magic dont win trophies. They are also players who cant do it when the chips are down, just look at the body labguage of half those players.

The Maguire....off field problems but after an average first season he has been absolutely diabolical this season. I like many have stated we so need a good partner for him....not sure he is good enough himself the more I watch him. Matic has played well once in the three games, today again though, looks like the player we saw for a long period of time, legs gone, over ran....can we rely on him for a whole season and are McTominay or Fred good cover for his role...no no and no.

Now on to recruitment!!!!!!!!!!! Our priorities for me this window were for the first eleven a new cb, a new dm and a new rw.....then competition and more quality squad wise for lb, am, st and lw

We are quite possibly signing not one player for the 3 positions we needed to imrpove the first eleven now.....but a lb and a striker to go with an am.....and also end of this window Jones, Rojo, Lingard, Mata, TFM almost certainly still here, Smalling possibly still here.......should all be gone....so should in my opinion two or three more I wont even name.

This is pretty much an exact rerun of the season after Mourinho won the Europa league and looked a good window away from challenging....had an awful window, lost the dressing room and board and was gone.....rightly anyway as wasnt the right manager for me. Only difference is Ole isnt causing friction....he should be.

 

[In Rainbows]

Honestly dumbfounded that people on here don't know why people laugh after a bad incident. It's a clear sign of frustration like it's a bit of a sarcastic laugh either at someone or something.

How do you guys not know this?

 

[RedNed77]

Saved some too. If he sprinted to Kane he would've made it 7 for example.

Oh behave.

His indecisive goalkeeping left us with a mountain to climb. That isn’t excusing Maguire or Shaw or a Bailly and doesn’t excuse our woeful midfield who were completely bypassed, but he has his part to share. A couple of TV saves doesn’t exculpate his mistakes, which helped put us on that back foot and led to this absolute disgrace of a performance.

 

[Scriblerus]

The side he brought back up were enjoyable though.

Certainly were. And had a way of playing, and a shape. This team...

 

[No Love]

Hang in there!

 

[El Jefe]

If Ole smiles in his post match interview, he needs to be sacked on the spot.

 

[patty123]

If you squint your eyes at the scoreboard it looks like we’re winning 1-0

Not sure if you twigged what I was referencing - the Graham Taylor “Do I not like that?” moment? Maybe too obscure

Never read what onion head had to say,( Edit) just did, my bad as they would say 25 yrs ago.

 

[Caliban]

I thought that the toxic atmosphere ended when Jose was sacked.

Fanbase are toxic too. Everything is toxic at this club

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Certainly were. And had a way of playing, and a shape. This team...

Two proper wingers. A colossus at the back in Martin Buchan. Stuart Pearson banging the goals in. Lovely.

 

[rpitchfo]

Hmmm, honestly think we will struggle to make top 10 this season.

 

[Dobba]

Certainly were. And had a way of playing, and a shape. This team...

Have at least 11 different ones, with no players telling the next one what theirs is.

 

[Falcow]

Enough with the Jose virus crap. It was silly then, and it's silly now.


Oh come on. What's at fault is Maguire's obvious 2 errors in that.

Pogba was a disgrace for the 5th and 6th goals. Maguire for the first 2 goals. Bailly for the 2nd and 3rd.

Why is it silly? His attitude and effort stink. Do you not think that rubs off on team mates especially younger players who might be naive enough to look up to him?

 

[Caliban]

There is smiles, and there is smiles. But i get your point.

 

[Enigma_87]

A couple of TV saves doesn’t exculpate his mistakes which helped put us on that back foot and led to this absolute disgrace of a performance.

Who was better though? Our defence deserved negative ratings. Midfield was awful, attack none existent. At least he got those TV saves. The whole team top to bottom was tragic.

 

[In Rainbows]

It’s not, serious foul play has to be considered endangering the opponent, which clearly isn’t the case here.

Exactly. A clear foul with the only intention being to stop an attack isn't necessarily a serious foul. It's a yellow, but it wasn't dangerous unless it was done in a way to harm a player or was reckless in a way even without intent.

I don't see that. I just see a blatant attempt to stop a player by tripping him.

 

[Ranchero]

He was on Sky Sports during half time and he was fecking fuming over this disgrace of a performance.

But he said he couldn't comment on United, and then tried to but it was all inarticulate babble. A bit like our performance

 

[mitchmouse]

could have broken his leg... it was obviously on purpose and it was dangerous

 

[reddevil80]

i feel physically ill and drained now. There is more of a spine in a jellyfish than our squad. I would absolutely love to be a fly in keanos gaff right now.

 

[In Rainbows]

Why is it silly? His attitude and effort stink. Do you not think that rubs off on team mates especially younger players who might be naive enough to look up to him?

No I don't. The fact that you're singling out Pogba for that characteristic (not that I agree) proves that it hasn't rubbed off on anyone hence why you're not labeling others with that same moniker. Otherwise he would be indistinguishable from the others regarding that attitude, and would therefore not lend himself to being labeled as THE virus.

Like logically it doesn't make sense to me.

 

[RedNed77]

Who was better though? Our defence deserved negative ratings. Midfield was awful, attack none existent. At least he got those TV saves. The whole team top to bottom was tragic.

The only players I’d give a pass to, and this is based on what I saw as I turned it off after 5, were Greenwood and Rashford. They’d both get a 4, everybody else would get a 1 including DdG.

 

[Baneofthegame]

I see it did not get any better.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

Weirdly probably not a bad shout. Probably deserves it for popping Lamela anyway. Imagine how embaressed his family must be at going down like that.

I've picked him. It's a bit childish of me, hopefully not against the rules here, but I'm not interested in selecting anybody else on that pitch.

 

[mitchmouse]

For the next 6 months

rashford can run the campaign in person. doesn't deserved to be picked at the moment

 

[UncleBob]

it was vicious and spiteful... that can be seen a serious foul play. but hey, i only refereed for five seasons

Vicious and spiteful awesome.

But no.

Any player who lunges at an opponent in challenging for the ball from the front, from the side or from behind using one or both legs, with excessive force or endangers the safety of an opponent is guilty of serious foul play.

Weird that it doesn't say anything about spiteful, and that you don't understand what serious foul play is, you refereed for 5 seasons and all.

There's no excessive force and he doesn't endanger the safety of the player, he sees that he can't get the ball so he takes him out. Is it cynical as feck? Obviously.

 

[Redplane]

If Ole smiles in his post match interview, he needs to be sacked on the spot.

Regardless of what one may think about Ole-he is the last of our recent line of coaches Id suspect to take this lightly. One thing I never question about Ole is his pride for the club.

 

[mitchmouse]

i feel physically ill and drained now. There is more of a spine in a jellyfish than our squad. I would absolutely love to be a fly in keanos gaff right now.

can you imagine if Keano was in Ole's management team.. there would be blood

 

[mitchmouse]

I see what you're saying, but unless it's a blatant mistake, you're kind of just blaming him for something that we have no idea would change under another keeper. I don't think you should blame a player based on that what if scenario. It should be based on actual evidence of a mistake.
