When City was shit and we were at our peak, I remember we sold our players to them. I don't think we even tried. Say if we offer him a higher salary package which we are notorious for, there is no way Arsenal can compete with us for that. Frankly, if Arsenal is irrelevant to City, we should be too. We haven't won the league since 2013 and never look like challenging for the past 9 years. Money talks. I doubt City will refuse to deal with us if we offer more than Arsenal.
I think they hate us more than we did at the time. They don't need the money too. Zero chance they would sell us any player

This is my first year playing FPL but surely you are better saving your triple captain for a week with 2 games?
Always a punt if you ask me, sure it was Bournemouth, thought he'd do well.

4-0 he could have had the decency to get a couple.

What is it with Man United wide players never taking it to the byline.
Last week, Shaw was doing some awful early floaty cross, slowing down the play.
Here Sancho has no one in front of him and plays an awfull ball to Fernandes who has no angle for a shot.

Someone tells ETH to untick the "Play from the back" option in his tactic

If you’re going to play through the keeper you have to want the ball. None of them do.

Man United have been unbelievably bad, and I’m confused about what the thinking was behind the midfield when facing a side like Brentford

Players definitely don’t look comfortable playing in a 4-3-3.

This is too bad to even take the piss.
Went out for some shopping, opened the door to the sound of Neville saying "United are getting mauled" :eek:
I almost (almost) feel bad for smiling that hard...
And it's 4.....holy feck!!!!

Well at least the pressure on Lampard is going to ease and be put on someone else instead. :nervous::lol:

United haven’t looked this bad since the 70s if ever. Now we can say it hasn’t been coaching has it. They just have a mix of the wrong players for the last ten years. This is just terrible.

ETH is here to beat De Boer's record, isn't he?
