  1. Post match vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

    No tearing of hair or gnashing of teeth for me, just a sad acceptance that THIS IS THE NEW NORMAL. It's as clear as an unmuddied lake: Doesn't matter who the manager is, doesn't matter who the players are, doesn't matter what "savior" we purchase each season, the magic is gone, the mundane is in.
  2. Post match vs Brighton & Hove Albion

    Pitiful. No wait, that would imply that I feel sorry for the players. Excrement. Ahhhh, yes, much better.
  3. How would you feel if Rooney smashed it at Everton?

    I wish him all the best, why not?
  4. Post match vs Anderlecht

    Pogba does more spin-a-ramas than the entire cast of ICE CAPADES.
  5. Post match vs Anderlecht

    Our impotence is Viagravating.
  6. The enigma that is Antonio Valencia's left foot

    yeh, that is an amazing stat!
  7. The enigma that is Antonio Valencia's left foot

    Almost 200 United games to his credit, going on 300 Premier League games, something that 100s of thousands of 2 footed players would love to accomplish. Even knowing what foot he was guaranteed to use, would you want to be defending against him? He's a stud, in my book.
  8. Who would you keep: Rashford or Martial?

    My gut reaction is Rashford. I dig both guys though, hellish question to mull over.
  9. Anyone else feeling desensitised to our decline?

    I live in Los Angeles, so to see a match live I usually have to wake up between 4am to 7am on a Saturday, which I did religiously for years, making a good breakfast for halftime, and usually falling asleep face down on a bar around 11pm on Saturday nights. But as the Moyes era got halfway...
  10. To the posters saying Mourinho is done

    Depression. Clinical depression. It's a depressing subject, and one that over my 65 years I have, from time to time, been intimately familiar with. I'm not a doctor, but I have learned to see the signs of depression in others, and in fact have helped some friends into therapy and...
  11. Post match vs Chelsea

    M.A.N.N. UNITED Mediocrity As New Normal
  12. Rashford, our most exciting youth product since Ryan Giggs?

    Speed and luck. 2 absolutely vital components that cannot be learned. The other things can come with time. Hopefully Mourinho will give him that time!
  13. Rashford, our most exciting youth product since Ryan Giggs?

    I see a killer instinct in Rashford that Welbeck never ever exhibited. I'm a fan.
  14. State of the refs in this country

    Middle aged men required to run the length of the pitch, for 90 minutes, chasing top athletes in the prime of their lives, while retaining ultra acute powers of observation and judgement. Kind of ridiculous isn't it? My proposal, TWO REFS, neither of which runs past the centerline. If a player...
  15. I'm worried about Rashford

    All kinds of pressure on Cassius Clay when he was Rashford's age. He did alright. Some people are just born to play the heroic part, and I have a good feeling Rashford is one of them.
