  1. Are Bruno and Rashford a problem?

    Bruno's stats are almost identical to Odegaards, and together they're both the two most creative players in the league. He's sometimes frustrating and he does cede possession to an annoying extent, but he makes things happen. When you look at our team in terms of quality, and see the distinct...
  2. Harry Maguire | 2023/24 Performances

    I live in South America and it's kind of a cultural thing and seen as fair game, by some people, if you rub your opponent's nose in it. Which doesn't mean it doesn't happen anywhere else or that all Latinos agree with it - some are actually dead against it - it just might explain why he did it...
  3. Harry Maguire | 2023/24 Performances

    He was MOTM today. Defended well despite not being 100% fit, showed desire to get forward, and got a well-taken goal. Also, and perhaps most importantly, an extremely classy gesture to go straight away to shake hands with the Coventry players.
  4. La Liga 2023/24

    That's surprising, but ok, that's the graphic they've used. Personally thought it was over because after Lunin makes contact with the ball, it is diverted to Lunin's right and then lands flush on the line, which is five inches. It doesn't seem in any sense probable given the lateral movement of...
  5. Rasmus Højlund | 2023/24 Performances

    Not great today. As poor as Jackson's finishing was yesterday, he offered a lot more against a stingy defence than Hojlund did against Coventry.
  6. Aaron Wan-Bissaka | 2023/24 Performances

    You would see better positional awareness in a school game. Imagine carefully setting offside traps and waiting for the linesman's flag to pop up, only for this guy to constantly play everyone onside by inexplicably haring back. It's infuriating. He had a clear line of view to see the other...
  7. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    Come on mate that was a second string team with Reece James, Saidy Janko, James Wilson, Marnik Vermijl, and Nick Powell. It is not comparable to this game at all.
  8. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    Overall, he's not the worst manager post SAF because he's won something and he had a decent first season. But some of the performances under him have been the poorest of any manager post SAF. Moyes and Van Gaal at their worst would have still won comfortably today. We go life and death with...
  9. Coventry City vs Manchester United

    I'm glad we won because it spared further humiliation, but it was harsh on Coventry City and their fans. Rightly muted celebrations at the end. Not much to celebrate.
  10. Coventry City vs Manchester United

    Come on mate we were absolute garbage and Coventry were a marginal call from a final.
  11. Coventry City vs Manchester United

    Gotta feel for Cov. Pathetic display from us.
  12. Coventry City vs Manchester United

    AWB ballwatching instead of stepping up.
  13. Nicholas Jackson

    Kevin Davies was unfashionable as hell but he was a good target man. Averaged about 8 or 9 league goals a season for a decade while working his bollocks off for a long ball team. Nuñez is rapid and direct but he hasn't truly capitalized on his potential yet, but he probably will eventually break...
  14. The RedCafe Boxing Thread

    Garcia just looked bigger and stronger in there. Faster hands, especially with the left.
  15. Coventry City vs Manchester United

    He's 37. I don't think Hud should play because he's a coach now, but he was a classy player. Great range of passing and scored some absolute screamers, especially for Spurs. But yeah seeing him given a sub appearance or two in the league would be cool.
