The 4-3 against City with Owen's winner was great as well.

Bayern play Bochum every week.
Abdoulaye Doucouré scores every single week without fail; however, his goal tally at the end of each season is always 2.
Newcastle play on tv every week
Liverpool go 1-0 down in every game they play but go on to win comfortably.
Always 3-1 too
If Liverpool win, Diogo Jota will score the last goal
I was actually going to say that but thought it wouldn't happen if I posted it
Genuinely feels like it's been this way since the Benitez days!
They could have won by a lot more from the sounds of it
Arsenal only play on Sundays.
It’s happened 5 times(Or 6 if you count pre season) already this season!
Every year we play the same team back to back within a few days, one in the league cup and one in the league.
We usually lose 1 and win 1.

Since Mark Goldbridge created the United Stand its cursed the club. When he supported Forrest we won major trophies. When he deactivates the Channel we will win the prem
Diogo Jota scores all of his goals from the 80th minute onwards.
Yes, I'd love to see stats on this.
Most premiership games are not televised in England. But every match is available in the United States of America 
Steven Davis has been at Rangers for the last 40 years.
Just read that alvaro morata is only 30!
Seems like he should be about 40 we’ve been linked on and off with him for so long……..

Didn’t know where to put this
Italy either don't qualify for major tournaments or finish between 1-4th in them, no inbetween.

Would genuinely love to see a match now played with those old tactics.
Also, the drop kick is a forgotten art, never really see a keeper do that anymore.
Couldn't stop giggling while watching that
None of this tippy-tappy shit, just boot it as far away as possible.There seems to have been a private meeting among the heads of all football media outlets where they've agreed to push women's football on a captive audience, despite the fact that nobody seems to watch it or are able to name more than a few players.
That's a rubbish definition of a captive audience.
As in they're trying to create a captive audience. But also that the average consumer of football news, including myself and every friend I have who follows football, has felt it shoved upon them when going to their previously regular news outlet. There seems to be no demand that justifies the enormous rise in the presence. Todays united matchday thread reflects that.
I do agree that we’re seeing women’s football being given almost a manufactured platform that isn’t proportionate to demand, and it’s definitely deliberate.
They’re trying to grow the sport and let’s face it, it’s hard to do so if nobody is seeking it out. So it comes to you instead. They sort of need to do it this way or it would stay niche forever, hence why every established club like United has its own women’s team, instead of just Manchester ladies FC - it’s the brand recognition they need to get people watching.
If you don’t like it just ignore it, but I do understand why it’s happening. If it gets more girls involved in football it’s a good thing. The subsidisation is the least the men’s game can do really considering the FA banned women from even taking part until what, the 70s?
Everton v Liverpool is the only top tier derby in world football where one of the teams has never won.
Whenever one of our games get postponed, when we go on to play that match we don't win and/or put up a dire performance.
When a player pressures an opposition player and raises both arms to clearly indicate to the referee that he isn't fouling, a free kick is always awarded against him.
Jarred Bowen and Ollie Watkins score every game for their respective teams.
That Scott McTominay used to play striker as a kid. He didn’t.
Feels like we're not far off even with the knowledge we've won 'a few' over the past decade or so.
Not for nothing but in the Sky Sports app on a Saturday, it goes :-
Premier League
Women's Premier League
Women's Championship
Women's Scottish Premier League
Championship
League one
League two
Conference
then the top and interesting other leagues in the world.
I have nothing against women's football, but the way Sky Sports organizes scores on their site now is extremely illogical and user-unfriendly. Big pet peeve of mine.Not for nothing but in the Sky Sports app on a Saturday, it goes :-
Premier League

Women's Championship
Women's Scottish Premier League

Its ridiculous.
The opposition are more likely to score from a Man Utd corner than Utd are.
