Odegaard is the best player in the league.
Without him and some good moments in games from their attacking line they would implode. They need to put Jorginho instead of Rice or Trossard. They are to open.

He's so, so, bad

If he's not reciting on of his prepared sonnets, then he's listing the players names in an increasingly high pitch. One day he's gonna pop I'm sure
Some people absolutely adore his style.
But then some used to love that Stuart Hall's way of speaking too!

That is because they have less control compared to city, so an element of jeopardy in their games
Ye they get the ball quicker aswell and I like the way they interchange around the oppositions box.

I can't stand arsenal but I'll cheer them on all day long over the scouse or City. Go on you gooner cnuts
Yeah, watching Arsenal or any of their fans, the first thing you notice is that they're horrible odious cnuts.

The second, more important thing that you notice is that they're not Liverpool.

Gabriel is such an overrated defender. Gary Cahill type brute made to look good by a significantly better partner.

Ye he’s definitely up there. I just don’t like his antics with his time wasting.
Arteta looks and acts like a douche but he is turning out to be a damn good manager. His team plays good football and also has the ability to adapt and play on the counter when needed. He is very flexible in his approach and is not militantly married to only one particular style.

I can't wait for the day Arteta gets absolutely cleaned out of it on the touchline. It must be a bit off-putting if you're on the wing and he's literally breathing on you.

Yep. Any United fan who wanted City to win the league last season has surely learned their lesson after seeing them win the treble. Back to back trebles would be sickening.
City could win eleventy trebles in a row and it'd still be preferable to Liverpool winning a league.

I agree, but I think the same about arsenal winning it as well... come on city (I don't care about you)

Arse winning is the least worst option, but cheering them on is a step too far and I hatred for them, their manager and fans is only a wafer thin distance from my loathing of Liverpool and City. Actually City is always a bit more meh.

Really enjoyed that half.

Odegaard is some player. Incredibly tough to mark with his movement and more often than not produces a defence splitting ball.

Luckily for us one of those halves where Arsenal are overhitting crosses and shooting rashly when tight angles.

Will probably still lose as they'll overwhelm us in the last half hour but one goal defeat actually keeps us 4th.

Feel like it’s gonna be similar to last season. Us in the Fa cup final having a chance to stop them winning the treble but it won’t happen. They’ll probably pip Arsenal to the league, and if they knock Madrid out on Wednesday then they’ll surely win that again.

There's pros and cons with Arsenal.

They have some really hateful morons in their fanbase. I've experienced that up close when I used to do the United away in their end (guy at work could get tickets).
And it's nice they haven't won it for 20 years or so.

The idea of them winning it at our ground and for the next 30 years singing it, like with the "Invincibles" (yet lost in 3 cups) side would also be tedious.

But no-one has won 4 titles in a row, so it'd be good for City not to do that if possible.

You're probably right, although I do like the look of Barca in the CL this season. They'll have a better chance of beating City in the final than Inter did.

Would be great for multiple reasons if Chelsea pull off a madness and beat City in the semis.

How United fans feel about Liverpool is basically how I feel about the prospects of Arsenal winning the title. It cannot happen under any circumstances. I’d rather watch Liverpool win 5 trebles in a row than watch Arsenal win a single title or CL. City is the comfy safety net, hopefully this season too.
