  1. Angel Di Maria | Performances | Wife: "He only joined United for money. The food was disgusting. The women look like porcelain"

    Food is such an odd thing. I love Italian food and I'm in Italy now but I've had possibly the worst Italian food I've ever had in any country in Italy several times. Last time it was microwaved half warm half cold rubbery pasta, absolutely disgusting. You almost always need to research where...
  2. Do we extend Ole's contract?

    Apart from being top of the league in January for the first time in 8 years.
  3. Our 2nd best midfielder

    Overall McTominay has been more conistent than Pogba this season. Hard to split Fred and McTom at the moment as they give us completely different things. McTominay has outscored Pogba over the last two seasons and Fred provides energy rarely seen from Pogba. Pogba's excellent at headers, and...
  4. Eric Bailly | 2020/21 Performances

    It might seem like a 50/50 damned if you do damned if you don't. But I think for a center back, the scales should always tip to defending the center. A bit like a goal keeper at their near post. An 'if in doubt' if you will. If someone runs down the line it's not Maguire's job to deal with...
  5. Eric Bailly | 2020/21 Performances

    All right mate. Calm down. The poster above acknowledges the other defensive 'sub optimal' decisions. As does the United Hour and many other people. I guess you're an all of nothing sort of guy, you're not alone but neither am I in my opinion. Have a great rest of your day. Nothing to be...
  6. Eric Bailly | 2020/21 Performances

    Cool, you clearly agree that it was suboptimal. Bailey ends up covering Maguire's recently vacated position. You could argue, that, had Maguire not moved across there would be no goal. Obviously you've gone with a majority blame rather than an entirely blame position so there's not much point...
  7. Eric Bailly | 2020/21 Performances

    That's a really simplistic view of things. All you have to do is explain what Maguire was doing but no one can.
  8. Eric Bailly | 2020/21 Performances

    No it's really not 'entirely on Bailey'. What was Maguire doing? Just because you've walked off the side of the pitch doesn't mean you cease to have responsibility for defending. If Bailey goes to the man he's stood right in front of Pogba. What's the point in that? I've already acknowledged...
  9. Eric Bailly | 2020/21 Performances

    All of this heaping the blame on Bailey is unfair. He's playing on the right and only ends up anywhere near because he's pulled out of position by Maguire going to left back. It really should have been Maguire making the challenge. Pogba is the closest to the man, but decides both not to...
  10. Paul Pogba | 2020/21 Performances

    Good performance today 8-9 / 10. Amazing goal for his left peg. Good work rate and desire to win back the ball. He's found a few non penalty goals this season after not really scoring for years, must feel on top of the world.
  11. The relative strength of the Premier League

    Since United last won a league (ok I'm counting Liverpool already so I'm totally cheating here. I'm taking currently top placed in the other leagues too). Anyway, over 8 seasons: 5 teams have won the Premier League 3 teams have won La Liga 2 teams have won Ligue 1 1 team has won the Scottish...
  12. Manchester United vs Manchester City

    Lingaed got clapped off.
  13. Post match vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

    Hmmm. They have a lot of strange ideas such as players not getting sufficient pay rises (our wages are quite high, no?) and seem to be quite attention seeking. That being said they're no different that anyone on here, we've all got opinions.
  14. Wenger appointed as a FIFA chief

    He is the third most successful manager in England ever in terms of trophies. He's not won as many leagues as he might sure. But he did build a financially successful club in the premier league era, improved the facilities and the stadium, and maintained top 4 on a shoe string. Did he overstay...
  15. Get rid of VAR NOW! We want our game back! (...or not, some are happy)

    Actually, one is a matter of opinion e.g. "I think VAR works fine in England", the other is demonstrably untrue i.e. just look at the differences in the rules surrounding VAR.
