  1. Players you had forgotten existed

    He ended up immortalised as a FIFA legend for being the fastest player on the game for quite a few years.
  2. Football365: 28 Man Utd stats that leave us confused

    What makes it so frustrating is that last season we were seemingly creating far more chances yet way less clinical. This is baffling to me as this is over full season and a chance is a chance, so I don’t see any good reason why this should be the case.
  3. Graeme Sourness | Retires from “punditry”

    I'm not accusing Souness of actually being overtly racist, and usually with these things I take a relaxed stance, like the Lukaku chants, or even when Souness himself consistently brings up pace and power with black players in the past, but I can't help but get a little annoyed and feel certain...
  4. Manchester City vs Manchester United

    Except Pogba's hair has been like that for weeks (since the games for France). He could have changed his hair now and still have people complain about how he's changing to frequently or trying to make this game about himself etc.
  5. Paul Pogba | 2017/18 Performances

    Unusually for Pogba his long passing was off (Usually there are games he can be sloppy but still play pinpoint aerial balls at any moment) but apart from which I'm sure will be back with confidence. Otherwise a good game, his short and between lines passing was very good and he showed good...
  6. Talented players with terrible work ethic

    Of all things why is Pogba's work ethic being slated as terrible? It's not like he's so ridiculously gifted he's achieved what he has in his career so far despite a terrible work ethic (in fact he seem pretty driven in leaving united and forcing his way into Juve). He doesn't drink alcohol at...
  7. From the Times : Rock bottom - United's failing youth team.

    Alright, I understand how people are going to talk about how youth football should be about preparing the players for Adult football and not results etc. But in fairness if the U-23s is being slapped around like silly and are literally bottom of their league, I don’t see how you can play it off...
  8. Paul Pogba | 2017/18 Performances

    Has the amazing ability to get slated for both not keeping it simple and disciplined, as well as not doing/creating enough or imposing himself on the game at the same time.
  9. If you were to take 3 players from the bottom 10 teams, who would you take?

    Fair enough not rating any suggested player enough, but I don't people using Zaha time here as an argument as if it wasn't years ago as a young player or he even made more than 1 actual league appearance.
  10. Why didn't it work out at United for Zaha?

    I only just believe that he genuinely just think he wasn’t really given a chance at United under moyes. What gets me is that I thought he looked amazing in pre-season that year in Asia. I was hopeful and excited to see how he’d do having a couple of years where Young and Valencia were still our...
  11. Lukaku defending set pieces is an absolute menace!

    He was, I just passed it off as hes brilliant on getting on the end of and directing attacking headers, so it’s just natural he’s able to do it the other way (especially when a specific target isn’t so important). I guess my logic doesn’t always hold though.
  12. Ashley Young | 2017/18 Performances

    Honestly I fought he did very well first half, even on the right. Excellent defending when isolated and given Arfield a tough time.
  13. Manchester United vs Burnley

    Can’t believe people are watching the same game as me, people claiming we aren’t creating no chances. If that shot cleared off the line isn’t a chance I don’t know what is.
  14. Time to rewire how you watch football?

    When watching united, with the exception of LvG who would at times drain my soul, I typically watch all 90 minutes. Yes I do have my phone out, but even then it’s almost always either to check a Matchday thread, check social media to see other people’s reactions on the match or communicate with...
  15. What impact does a footballer's social media have on their performances?

    What gets me the most is. It’s not even like Pogba and co do anything particularly offensive, dangerous or controversial on social media. People mention it like out partying in Barbados or every snap or something, I find it bizarre. It just seems like bog standard fun with his family members and...
