The Footie Thread

As I've just told my kids, all we need to do now is to keep the ball 20+ yards away from our own defence... for the next nine and a half games!!!!

Neville is clueless. He also thought Ole should've had more time and thinks Rashford should've started yesterday when he couldn't trap a bag of cement at the moment. Through Ole's whole tenre Neville was sitting on the fence and papering over the cracks as his mate made a mess of it.

Throwing money at the problem is what every elite club does, the difference is they all have better people running the football side and spend the money well. The idea Utd can get out of this without spending even more money is pie in the sky. The best of the academy is Elanga and he's not good enough to start for any top 8 side. It's embarrassing seeing someone clearly not good enough starting games simply because he runs and puts in a shift.

The moment Woodward picked Pogba and Martial over Mourinho in 2018 he created the toxic arrogance among the players and gave them total power. Terrible contract extensions, overpaying on wages and players aswell as not selling players when they were worth something are other key reasons. Utd haven't got the right people running the club and football side to turn it around.

Odd that you should refer to Neville as clueless, and then go on to make the same points he has, repeatedly.

Why is it that a challenge like that is given as a penalty even though the contact wasn't enough to justify the theatrical fall to the ground but defenders can cuddle and wrestle a forward to the ground from a freekick or corner and it's not given as a penalty?

Saw someone say that Richarlinson has the ego of Cristiano Ronaldo but the career of Stewart Downing- prob sums him up

Nah....if it was Sunday League defending then Benzema would have been put onto the next pitch by Rudiger.

Away goals don't count as double anymore, if scores tied
