This is absolute fantasy writing. This image of Solksjaer as all sunshine and roses is just nonsense and it plays in to all the PE teacher shite.

This is the crux of the issue. Utd have been the best team in the league over the last calendar year. Solskjaer has taken a patchwork squad full of dross, and without spending insane money, has drastically improved the personnel, the style of football, the atmosphere in the squad and, most...

MOTM today for me and has been very impressive this season.

"If life gives you lemons, you go into the post-match interview and complain that it didn't give you the lemons at the right time, the lemons were too yellow, the peel was too thick, and you actually wanted an orange."

You're seriously overstating how much Wolves sat back. It's not as if Utd had 80% possession. Wolves had 42% possession in the game! When they lost the ball they dropped into a low block, so that made it even more important for Utd to force turnovers and move the ball quickly in the transitions...

Utd were way too pedestrian in the middle of the park yesterday, and the threat of a Wolves counter was accentuated by the lack of mobility of Pogba and Matic. They needed to force more turnovers and move the ball quicker when they did win it back before Wolves sat into the low block. Fred...

I couldn't disagree with this more. He's shown absolutely nothing to suggest he is a better manager than Solskjaer. Solskjaer has drastically improved Utd and the league form over the last 12 months shows this clearly. Despite all of the signings this Chelsea team is exactly like Frank's Derby...

He is the best player in the league atm, and one of the top players in the world.

Pogba was poor in the first half yesterday but improved in the second half, and Matic had a very good game, but the two of them as a pivot just doesn't work very well because of the lack of energy and dynamism. Fred's absence yesterday was starkly obvious. He's a really important player in this...

The fact that there are even question marks around Solksjaer's job is a damning indictment of the culture around managers in football. He has steadily improved the squad without spending obscene money, the PL form over the last 12 months is exceptional and he's been competitive in Europe during...

Since the October international break Arsenal are rock bottom of the league in goals scored, shooting accuracy and shot conversion and second from bottom in shots on target. So unlucky! :lol:

Well put. I can't understand the hysteria around this since he came in. He's a young player making a step up to a tougher league. There's a lot of quality and competition for places in that midfield. He seems like a humble kid with a good head on his shoulders so I'm sure he can understand his...

This is just complete insanity! I dunno whether there was always a massive disconnect between eFans and people who regularly watch football as spectators, but it really seems like YouTube compilations have twisted people's understanding of football matches. Bruno is up there with the best...

I don't have a massive problem with his answer in isolation tbh. I think Pogba is one of the most talented players in the world. I accept he is just not the type of player to dominate a game though, and he is probably someone who is always going to thrive in a strong team that is playing well...

Pretty much all agent fees are exorbitant. There's very selective reporting when it comes to agent fees, particularly when it comes to journos looking to exaggerate the cost of Utd's dealings.
