And rightly so considering United's bank rolled squad.
I'd take a draw to be honest. Both teams drop points. Jose stays at United a bit longer.
Probably a draw. I think Chelsea will win though.
Really? I'm not sure you saw some of the starting elevens Sir Alex use to play with and won.
If Mourinho had taken United to a CL final playing entertaining football while not getting into public fights with players? I doubt it.
I think of 3 things:
Draw
United. I don't really mind United, but I despise Chelsea.
My post was actually a jibe in relation to something that happened nearly 30 years ago at Old Trafford when Alex Ferguson had been at United for 3 years. A United supporter, not too happy at the lack of progress shown in those 3 years, constructed a banner & had it on display at a United, with pretty much the same wording as shown in my post. With Fergie taking the place of Klopp obviously. I agree with what you say though, & I find it ironic that some United supporters see Klopp's failure to win silverware in his first 3 years - ignoring the fact he 's got us to 3 finals where we've lost to 3 very good sides - as a big stick to beat him with. Yet prior to their match against Newcastle on Saturday nearly 75% of people on here felt Jose wasn't the man to take the club forward. & this a man who has won 2 trophies in less than 3 years at United.
Ferguson could have fielded a team of blind Albanian shepherds & still win a game. He was unique in that sense. But my point was in relation to the resting of your first choice front 3 of Rooney, Tevez, & Ronaldo when you chasing a League & CL double in 2008. He had the likes of Saha & Nani to call upon, but when fit & not suspended, those 3 were not rested that much.
It's only been 7 years since you last won it though. For some Liverpool families, its been 3 generations.
It's all good, you rather see beautiful football but to say the ones who like titles more are the ones who never won a title in life is. Well silly.
What?United's bank rolled squad! ?!
A lot of trophies these days.. Like the 2nd place trophy you won last season. And reading this forum, one could get the impression, that many of you are hoping for the famous 4th place trophy this season.'Finals reached' is a new trophy Liverpool fans have made up.
Glory glory Man Utd.
We did this last year & the response was bordering on a farcical refusal to actually answer the question from what I can remember.
I would care. But i would sure take it over entertaining football without winning.
Er no. Why?
Hmm hardly, but considering Mourinho has put together the most expensive Premier League squad in history (or was it in the world???) and Ferguson spent more than his fair share then its hardly a unique thing is it? Yeah Klopp has started spending. Fair to say that he and the team had reached a point where there was little option if the club really wanted to progress. Bank rolling. Yeah it happens and United have done more than their fair share.United's bank rolled squad! ?!
Seems you're forgetting how much Liverpool spent on a centre half and goalkeeper and the rest of the team this summer!
Got to be in it to win it. I'd rather we had a chance, which being in a final gives you, rather than flopping out in round 3 or the group stages. That is why I am personally disappointed that we didn't progress in the Caraboa Cup or whatever its called these days. Oh look United didn't progress either!'Finals reached' is a new trophy Liverpool fans have made up.
Regurgitating history, isn't that something you guys mock us for? I guess history is more comforting for you than facing the harsh reality of what's going on now.
0-0 draw would be perfect. Both teams dropping 2 points
i like to have a good laugh now and then.
So do we. I hope you keep posting on iti like to have a good laugh now and then.
Just because you told me to keep posting my friend, and for another laugh and nothing else:So do we. I hope you keep posting on it
Chelsea went 50 years between titles. Still didn't stop them producing some good sides who played good football throughout that barren period. I know a few Chelsea fans who were around during the 70's & 80's who say how much the enjoyed it despite the limited success. If you look at United's title-winning era's they too came with substantial gaps - 1911 to 1951 & 1967 to 1993 - But they've always prided themselves (especially since the Busby Babes) on trying to build their success by playing attractive football. OK, winning league titles is a great thing. But sometimes you can enjoy the journey too whilst en-route.
Believe me, the longer you go without a title the more you'll mention what you've won in the past.Just because you told me to keep posting my friend, and for another laugh and nothing else:
The truth seems to hurt so i'll try to be more benevolent and not mention the thirteen Premier Leagues again.
See, there i obeyed you.
You're a Liverpool fan who spends more time on the United forum than on theirs!
Well, technically you get a medal by being runners-up.'Finals reached' is a new trophy Liverpool fans have made up.
Our forums are rubbish. RAWK is the main one and there's hardly any objective discussion to be had.
Liverpool has the most threads running in this General football forum. All started by united supporters. More threads than ones about united. There is another section dedicated to all things united. So, if the mancs want to talk all things Liverpool then the Lfc supporters are more than happy to oblige.
I post on here because I like to be challenged. What's the point in going on a forum where everyone pretty much thinks the same ? & why does it bother you so much ? Are you afraid to be challenged on your opinions ? The Caf is by far & away the best football forum out there. I hardly ever view, let alone post, on the Manchester United threads. But I like to hear alternative views on what's happening at my club. Sometimes I agree, sometimes I disagree, & I put the reason why I disagree. Isn't that how healthy forums should function ? Anything else is just one big, boring, echo chamber.
Ergh.
Chelsea. I always want United to lose, whoever they're playing. I appreciate that this season it looks like Chelsea are more of a direct threat to Liverpool's possible title chances (along with Man City, Tottenham and maybe Arsenal) than United, so it might make more sense logically for me to want United to win, or maybe have the two teams draw.
Really well said this. imo. On our side we can have a bit of a WUM as well (they're quite strict with you guys, I know). I like to get a different idea as well. I probably already know what we think isn't it?
. I was very foolish to say that I thought Zl*t*n was quite slow & mainly all about trundling off to the back stick, that's for sure, .I can’t emphasise how much I hate posts like these. I’m sure oppo fans are tough enough not to be dissuaded from posting here despite posts like this, but the idea that Redcafe would get less diverse in terms of representation across teams makes me angry as hell.
It's never really oppo fans in general, it's strictly always "you are a Liverpool fan posting on a United forum"..etc. I've read this so many times, it personally doesn't bother because I'm not all that thick
I'm well aware it's a United site, one that I can say has been part of my online viewing way longer than I can remember (as sad as it is), therefore I/us are here to stay.
