Why cant you and your pal Mame diouf just leave one positive, nice thread alone.A predictably poor response
Is it that hard?
We’ve beaten them all...

Is it that hard?
I don't think I've ever been as miserable as some of the emos on here.
And both of them are on my ignore list! Technology is amazing isn't it?A positive thread has been completely ruined by 2 negative posters. Unbelievable tbh.
After a positive result too. Some people need a hug.A positive thread has been completely ruined by 2 negative posters. Unbelievable tbh.
Because it seems an odd thing to celebrate. I’m not intentially being negative and trying to cause a stir, it just seems a funny thing to pat ourselves on the back about.
I had several other posters on the ignore but seems I missed these 2 !
If you put Man City on ignore, we're top of the league!
Jesus Christ who's celebrating it?
Or if I put you on ignore I enjoy this place. Wohoooo
You can just stop watching United then from now on. Everything has been achieved before, so from now on, they are just stats.
This thread is! I mean, if this was on a rival site, we’d be in stitches and the small time nature of it.
They are saying Boo-Urns!
That really tickled my funny bone. Nice one. Am very drunk though.
Hahaha glad I could help. Especially after all the advice/help you’ve sent my way!
Enjoy the festivities
That’s not really how it works but thanks for your input
We could have discussed what it means or does it mean anything. Or why this was possible even though we are quite a bit away from the league leaders. Or how there are almost 3 teams in one season achieving this when it’s been a rare occurrence before. Instead we have two whiny rigid fans who can’t let it go.
Saying we’ve achieved the absolute minimum of what’s reasonable to expect is also subjective. I’d argue that finishing 4th and a cup final would be minimum of what’s expected right now whilst we’re building our squad to compete
Saying “hundreds of millions to spend” is a very lazy comment to make in 2018. In 2005 I’d have agreed with you, but hundreds of millions only buy you 3-4 players and when you consider the absolute shite Mourinho had as a squad when he took over, it will take another 3-4 players to make us good enough to win a title.
Given that he’s transformed us into a side Who will finish 2nd, on 80 points, who’s won trophies, I’d say he’s the man to be trusted with spending another “hundreds of millions to spend” to take us to the next phase, don’t you?
How are people moaning about this
True, normally a record like it would result in winning the league, but instead tonight we turned up at a rivals party, popped all the balloons and shagged his bird. Seems like plenty to celebrate.
Enjoy your night.
Really I've been thinking about this and I don't know how you can genuinely think that. I mean, scoring against every team in the league isn't an achievement? How about keeping a clean sheet in every game? Those are just stats but I don't know how one couldn't also consider them achievements. This is a separate issue from whether it's something to celebrate.
There has been enough of negative stats coming through this season. It’s always good to have a positive.
Feck off.
And you.
So how does it work? If you do not care about stats, don’t bother reading about it. If a player scores against this and that team x amounts of times, some find that interesting - see stats on Ronaldo. If you don’t, fine. Wouldn’t bother being an arse about it though.
Indeed. It's an opinion.
Again, very much subjective and not something I'd agree with.
No, I don't. I'm not seeing much evidence that there is a "next phase" under Mourinho. I feel like this is it, really. He spends lots of money on players that he doesn't seem to know how to use. Again, just my opinion.
Baffling - if Lukaku had scored against all teams and was top scorer, but we didn’t win the league, it doesn’t matter; it’s just stats.How are people moaning about this
I see what you’re saying, but my point really is context. This is nice but if it results in finishing the season empty handed then its pointless and not an achievement at all, in my view.
Premier league football is about winning things, stats are nice-to-haves but ultimately meaningless if you don’t win anything for me.
We haven't though. We've pinched his balloons, knowing that we're going to have to have to give them back next week. We've taken the shine off the party but we haven't stopped it happening.
The only stat that counts is points on the board and who has the most.
Id be inclined to agree with you if we were 7th
Champione!!
And everything else isn't worthy of mention?
Not yet, City is not only one they need to beat. They still are yet to beat West Brom, Leicester City, Watford and City.
What an utterly boring and plain stupid way to look at football.
If a team like Burnley manage to get into top six, should their supporters be as miserable as you and only look at the points on the table to see how far behind City they are?
Or, is it possible that they can look at their achievement and see improvement.
That is quite a polite way of saying it.
Fair comment but there’s a lot more said up to this point so can’t take this post in isolation.
People getting all upset just because a couple of posters think these stat achievements are meaningless. Give it a rest. No-one is forcing you to respond to them. Whether or not beating every team is meaningful or not is completely subjective. Fact, we've beaten every team. Hooray. Fact, we're still a mile away from competing for the title. Oh noes. Which one you want to focus on, who gives a shit... Who the feck pronounces it like that?
That’s why I’ve never cared for the CL, no points on the board? Feck right off with that.
Again, you need to look at it in context.
We’ve beaten every team in the league, that in isolation is a nice badge to have but what does it actually mean in the grand scheme of things?
We should create one big mega thread called Title or nothing where we will write everything cause anything but the title is not worth discussing.
