Like a man in orthopedic shoes, I stand corrected
Premier League Festive Season
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Are we counting our games in hand as wins? Unwise.
We're already in one realistically.
Apart from missing a red card in the first 10 seconds you mean?
Sancho won the cup, but yeah
If they're mediocre, feck knows what that makes usTwo mediocre teams.
So did Pulisic I think.
You think correct, 2017.
Both teams playing today are light years ahead of United unfortunately.
Chelsea and Pool will be 2 and 3 i reckon. what order i duno. Spurs arsenal face off when we play city, one of them, or both, drops pts for sure. Villa away wont be easy for yourselves.
All ifs and buts, but the top 3 right now, will be the 3 come may. Just my opinion
if that was a chelsea player you would haven't called for a red 10 seconds into the match
Yep. I'd assume you'll get it easily enough but this whole 'the top 3 are so far ahead' is abit outdated already.
City are streets away, Liverpool very good, Chelsea decent. The rest we will find out soon.
Some of the defending today (both sides) was shite.
It was, but the midfield and attacking play was excellent. Kovacic is just so good
Why would I be shouting for a red against my own player? Also what relevance is ‘10 seconds’ to that challenge?
Going by your idiotic logic, a two footed tackle knee high should also be allowed as long as it’s within the first 10 seconds? Good grief.
Good game between two teams streets ahead of us. Talk of catching either of them is wildly optimistic.
Still think we need a LWB in on loan this window. I like Alonso going forward, but not a fan in defence
Carragher embarrassing himself there.
Can I interest you in Brandon Williams?
Anytime you observe one of them alongside City who no team can match for consistency. United need a quality manager.
I actually quite liked him whenever I saw him for Man United!
He’s not even as good in attack now either. We had 4 really good chances which completely broke down because of Alonso. He’s nowhere near the level of Chilwell. We definitely need another LWB.
Carragher had a mare there. Is he essentially saying you can forearm someone in the face deliberately and it’s only a yellow?
Happy with a point, I was convinced we were going to get slaughtered going into this. Given how far behind Liverpool we were last season, the fact we're neck and neck with them despite all the injuries says a lot about our progress. Just need City to go into our game playing as shite as they did against Arsenal..
Like that FA Cup semi!
Terrible game full of dumb mistakes and no control from either team, no surprise City are walking again to another title.
My view of Man United players is mostly how they do against Chelsea. I was always surprised that Chicarito didn't end up with 50 goals per season!
So you want them to win it in injury time?
It was. Not always the best quality on display, but very intense and exciting
Nah, I'd hope our players aren't as dumb as Arsenal's.
What are your expectations for the sport? Matches don’t get better than that. wow
Well they do, but yeh it was a good game.
Too much chaos for my liking, Liverpool barely had anyone who was able to pass the ball well consistently.
I love a bit of chaos!
Great result as a United fan. Keeps Scousers away from winning the 20th title.
Why are you ignoring Kevin De Bruyne,Gundogan, Heung-Min Son, or Antonio Rudiger?
Plus none of the ones you mentioned have played for Bayern Munich, so hardly Bundesliga's best...

That's a rule change I wouldn't mind at all. First 15 seconds of any game is a free-for-all where no rules apply. The team that can cause the most damage to the other team and force the most subs has an advantage for the rest of the game, but any tackle made when the clock hits 00:15 would be a red card, so you'd have to make sure not to make the tackle too late. Would definitely make people tune in for kick-off.
The new Messi? BHA got verysloppy with their passing in the second half.
Jadon Sancho's going to be hurting a bit when he sees Gordon has been credited with that deflected effort.
