He'd be an instant caf legend too if he has another winner in his locker this season.Lucas Moura has become an instant Spurs legend for that goal. I've watched it about 200 times so far.

Funny thing about that. We have a pundit in The Netherlands called Valentijn Driessen who likes to say provocative shite just for the feck of it.Lucas Moura has become an instant Spurs legend for that goal. I've watched it about 200 times so far.

Before the 2nd leg against Madrid he openly relinquished his tickets, because Ajax had no chance to qualify anyway. This obviously met with a lot of ridicule from all sides.
To top that, before the 2nd leg against Spurs he told the country that Ajax where through, doubly so because Poch would play Moura and Moura is so shite and so little of a goal threat you might as well just not mark him and let him through on goal.
Ooops. Brilliant guy though. Everybody absolutely hates his guts without realizing that's exactly what he's trying to do.
City won a portion of those games because you gave them to incentive to do so. You lost to City at the Etihad to trim the lead to four points and then had four draws in a relatively short space of time (in whole-season terms). Had you won some of those, or drawn v City, your lead would’ve demoralised City and they may have prioritised Europe instead.City won 18 or their 19 league games in the second half of the season, but we threw it away?
Give City the credit they deserve.
Far from it, la.You must be mate.
Forgot all about the destiny etc. rawk was talking about regarding that.20-18.

He isn't a failure. But he sure holds the record for a top tier manager with the most number of short straws drawn. So many finals and now a league chase -- not bottled but lost.97 pts and only second.
The ridiculous thing is, people will say Klopp is a failure because he didn't win the title. But Pep's City is the most consistent side in PL-history, and Klopp's Pool is just 1 freakin point behind.
I think that's incorrect regardless of what Bernardo Silva said in an interview. City's dominance over everyone (including teams they've been beaten by) is there for all to see. Chances are they were going to end up on at least 95 points regardless of whether or not we drew a couple of games. They're that far ahead of everyone else in the league.City won a portion of those games because you gave them to incentive to do so.

Make no mistake about it, when the title was there to be won and statements were there to be made, you fluffed your lines. Draws v West Ham, Leicester, United’s reserves and Everton looked criminal at the time - like we warned - but you lot paid no heed.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this algorithm seems to indicate United are going to win the league every year for an entire century.Forgot all about the destiny etc. rawk was talking about regarding that.

Tick tock, tick tock, no matter what Leicester & Blackburn have won more titles than Liverpool.Clock is ticking till final. Hopefully another for the shelf. Number six. No one from the league will ever catch that. Then again no one will ever reach five. 2 more leagues however is within reach. Especially if the united free fall continues. Tick tock
What if, lo and behold, Spurs beat you in the final.Clock is ticking till final. Hopefully another for the shelf. Number six. No one from the league will ever catch that.

Well, that's good news.

The world keeps spinning. It's not like we're all going to go and support Everton.What if, lo and behold, Spurs beat you in the final.
Have you considered the ramifications of that?
So are you saying they didn't prioritize Europe? Don't Pep fool you when he said they were not focused on quadruple. His risks didnt work out in 1st leg which costed him the tie thus quadruple. I agree, we fluffed our lines especially draw against the sides you mentioned. We were bereft of any creativity in those matches from midfield and our front 3 were not firing. I believe if we had Coutinho or Fekir, maybe we would have turned one of those in win.

I’d agree with that, mostly. Getting 97 points but losing the title to one of, if not the, greatest team ever in the league is hard to take but still quite a feat. Losing yet another final, this time to Spurs, would be absolutely horrendous.I'll be honest, finishing on 97 points and not winning the league is frustrating.
But if we lose the CL final to Spurs there won't be any positives to take from this season for me. I'm sick of watching us continuously be the nearly men under Klopp and there's no excuse for us not to win that game. It'll be gutting and will feel like we're never going to win anything under him.
I wouldn't want him gone if we lose. He's built us up to this position from the mess we were in when he came in. I have higher expectations now though and if he loses in Madrid and then doesn't win anything next season, then serious questions need to be asked if someone else becomes available.I’d agree with that, mostly.

Your last sentence sounds like you’d want him gone if that happened, which I strongly disagree with as I see no other manager doing better than him.
You've been on 5 for the last 14 years. Only takes a few seasons in the future for United to get back up there.Clock is ticking till final. Hopefully another for the shelf. Number six.

I don't get this. Finals are not about form. Anything can happen in a final. If we lose, I'll be disappointed, but I would still be immensely proud of the season, and look forward to the next one. We're up against the best team in the league, so it could be next year, or a number of years before we will the league, if at all. Nothing is a given.if he loses in Madrid and then doesn't win anything next season, then serious questions need to be asked if someone else becomes available.
You'd need to be pretty damn dominant if you want to make up 2, let alone 3 CL trophies in "only a few seasons". Even Barcelona with Messi took 9 years to collect 4 of them and that's pretty extraordinary.You've been on 5 for the last 14 years.

Sometimes you go on a run and it happens. Liverpool could easily have been sitting on 7 trophies by the end of this run.You'd need to be pretty damn dominant if you want to make up 2, let alone 3 CL trophies in "only a few seasons".

For now he's far and away the best manager available to us and he's done a brilliant job of building us up to the side we are.
Good question. The only manager I'd currently take over ours is at our main rival so it'd be pointless to try and replace him just because he hasn't won anyting yet.Like who?

No it’s not unless you’re RM at their best or Liverpool in the 70s/80s. United should have won more during their PL and SAF knew it.Sometimes you go on a run and it happens. Liverpool could easily have been sitting on 7 trophies by the end of this run.
2 in 3 or 4 years is very doable.
We didn't have a panic attack. The City game was decided by the ball being just mm away from being a 2-2 draw probably.Pep was right when he said it's way easier to win games when you are chasing, all of the pressure is off. For the Scousers to be 7 points ahead and then have an absolute panic attack that they might win the league only to be good again when City went back ahead of them is a real sign of a team having the fear of winning choke but it will be covered up by the run they went on at the end.
No one currently. He's the best we can hope for. That might change in 12 months though if someone becomes available and we're still not winning anything.Like who?
You want Solskjaer?Good question. The only manager I'd currently take over ours is at our main rival so it'd be pointless to try and replace him just because he hasn't won anyting yet.

It’s just a response to the silliness. A week ago everyone on here was lamenting why Klopp didn’t come to united. Now it’s the opposite even with the points and a chance at 6What a WUM
