  1. Why are American chants so bad?

    There are dumb phrasing everywhere, and, yes, US soccer chants are embarrassing. The phrase “gutted” is pretty lame too though. How many times a season can Shaw be gutted anyway? Last season it was often twice a week.
  2. Club Sale | It’s done!

    No idea about his sources, but Wayne Barton is suggesting that Elliot think they are getting a portion and the Glazers are keeping the rest (30%). The plan being asset strip and then sell later. Fun.
  3. Qatar or Ineos - which owners would you prefer? | Vote now Private

    Of course. Therefore, all the other choices are bad—maybe some less bad than others or maybe not.
  4. Qatar or Ineos - which owners would you prefer? | Vote now Private

    If someone comes along with 6 billion and wants to put United in some kind of trust for the fans, then yes. Obviously that isn’t happening, so it’s two bad choices. I don’t see one being significantly better or worse than the other.
  5. Old Trafford revamp/could be torn down and rebuilt according to Glazer plans

    The retractable roof stadiums I have visited were more like an umbrella than a roof. They don’t have, and don’t need, a/c. Maybe it gets hotter in Manchester than Seattle, for example, but I’m guessing probably not by enough to make a difference.
  6. Post match vs Leeds United

    I thought Ten Hag is bad at subs? This place is confusing sometimes.
  7. Post match vs Nottingham Forest

    Go with your first instinct.
  8. Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United

    Low energy 0-2. United look fatigued—passing isn’t crisp (except when it is—the Anthony chance comes to mind). Seems like a game for a few of the bench guys.
  9. Frank Lampard | New Diary of a CEO interview

    Who’s the best relegation fighter available?
  10. Ronaldo leaving was the catalyst

    I don’t respect the manager.
  11. That 1 dance that footballers do when they’ve won a trophy / had a big result…

    Thank you for this. It’s puzzled me for years. Also, I approve of the name—assuming it doesn’t have a somehow better one.
  12. Do Brazil dance too much? Never gonna dance again

    I'm sure someone has already said this, but they weren't dancing much during the 7-1 to Germany. Maybe just stop them from scoring if you don't like the dancing.
  13. Manchester United vs West Ham United

    I guess. . .Hope this is one of those where it works a lot better than it looks. Elands seems an odd choice given how West Ham are likely to set up.
  14. Post match vs Newcastle United

    kept them quiet in the 2nd half. Looked like (should have) scoring at the end twice. A hell of a lot better than most of last season.
