Wolves on February 4, but we’ve drawn 2-2 with Brentford, Burnley and Sheffield Utd during this unbeaten run, so you can see why we’ve getting nowhere despite not losing games.
You were 2 nil up against Burnley too, if I remember correctly. Still hope for Everton. ;)

Future United 7.
Palmer? He’s a United fan is he?

Gotta give poch credit, unbeaten in last 7, they are scoring well (scored in last 15 halves).

seems like the defense is gonna get major investment

On a side note, ever since the ball playing keeper has become a necessity how many goals have we seen give away when a keeper could just boot the ball upfield or out of bounds? It’s surreal. You would have never seen someone try to make that pass Pickford just tried ten years ago and beyond. Am I wrong?

United have some nice fixtures coming up (Sheffield Utd, Burnley and Palace (a) next three). Not sure you'll end up in the top six.

You would think with Sean Dyche as manager and position in table Pickford wouldn't be making that pass.

How in the hell is Palmer this good and City let him go? This is crazy.
Because he wanted games and Pep couldn't guarantee him that, I suppose.

He's clearly driven and more focused on his development, rather than team accolades. Yes, he could have easily stayed at City, been in and out of the team, and potentially have won a couple of trophies. However, he chose to leave and play week in week out for a team who are in a bit of a transition period. His development over the last few months has sky rocketed, simply because he's playing. We're now seeing the same thing from Phil Foden now, who has been given the chance to play on a regular basis. Unfortunately for City, Palmer didn't have that same patience.

at this point you cant really look at any fixture and think United would be comfortable to get the win.

Beto lazily offside there, he is looking across at a couple of Chelsea defenders.
