The Footie Thread

[Lord Tyrion]

You’re only saying that to get the City’s fans hopes up.

The thing is, they are awful but they are very capable on the break. Liverpool could have 20 shots 2nd half, not score and Utd steal a goal. It's what they've done for most of the season.

The only surprise this game is that instead of rope a dope they are so open. Surely Liverpool can't keep missing, can they?...........

They weren't slagging Mainoo off, they were highlighting his positioning. I believe the implication was that they were pointing out he has been asked to play in that position, not choosing just to do his own thing

I agree.
But his footballing brain is telling him that things are going wrong and he’s getting bypassed.
Asking Maguire though he might as well ask the ball boy.

Just before halftime a Liverpool player (Diaz?) went down ‘injured’ and Man U had to kick the ball out. The player refused to allow the physio on and sat complaining to the ref. Why did the ref not tell him to get up and then start the game straight away? If Liverpool further try to delay the throw in, book the player for wasting time.
Too much play acting and time wasting in the game nowadays - from all teams

Your wrong UTD don’t have to put the ball out they chose to.

Managers need to emphasise that. No way would I have put it out and Diaz just confirmed why (clearly I'll never get a chance to prove this ). Just keep playing until the ref blows.

Well, talk about a goal that papers over the cracks for both Utd and Bruno

Why did it have to be rat face?

No, Vardy plays for Leicester.

Anything, just anything to stop Liverpool winning the title.
An offside goal would be nice, just to see Klopp's face.

I know that by the rules they don’t have to but they were heavily encouraged by the Liverpool players and fans. Can you imagine what Klopp would have been like if Man Utd scored when the player was down?

This is more Sunday League than the Chelsea game. Really, really bad.

 

[Billysboots]

Hopefully that’s Rashford done for the season.

Casimero is wearing gloves - I bet he drives an EV

 

[Slime]

And some say he's not ready for the Euros!!!
