Chicago Fire game last night was fun even if both teams are really quite terrible. Best starting player on the pitch was probably New England’s Carles Gil, apparently a former Valencia and Aston Villa player. He had real quality on the ball and popped up everywhere

It was a lot of fun to see Shaqiri come on and play some good balls to the forwards but nothing came of it and the Fire lost

 

This won’t happen because the sport also hates me.

 

genuinely can’t understand the logic in replacing Moyes with Lopetegui

 

I'm just going to reiterate what i said a few weeks back: West Ham fans don't realise how good they've got it with Moyes.

 

Looking at City’s fixtures. Spurs, lost four in a row and look hopeless. West Ham, won 2 games in 9 games. getting hammered. Fulham, on the beach and have two wins in 9, against West Ham and Spurs.


We’re coming second again, but we’re getting closer.

 

God we’re actually going to swap managers with Bayern aren’t we

 

When the crowd find out they're getting Pound Bakery instead of Greggs.

 

I thought West Ham were getting Amorim. Happy to hear they went with a lesser option!

 

Bruno missing a game through injury - keep an eye out for pigs flying!

 

Fuck me @ United's bench.

 

Incredibly annoying that’s a foul.

 

Goalkeepers get a stupid amount of protection

 

Players are only allowed to do that to Vicario. Any other keeper, touch them and it’s a foul.

 

Regardless of table position, I think Sheffield and Burnley ande the only sides in the league who have played worse football than United from a game to game standpoint. Genuinely believe the likes of Everton, Forrest, Wolves have all had better spells throughout the year than anything we’ve been able to put together.

 

Nah that happened to Onana this year and a few times to De Gea last year (and every other year he played for us)

 

This is a job interview for Olise, right?

 

So turns out he was using West Ham to bait Liverpool which didn’t work. Then rejected West Ham.

Sporting won the Primeira Liga this weekend and Amorim opened his speech with a joke about it after apologising to the fans two games ago. He also said he’s staying at Sporting next season.

 

I do not understand this midfield at all. I get that Amrabat is really fucking shit. But an 18 year old, a guy who can’t run, and Mount in his first start in what 6 months? And not one of them is defensive minded. Mind boggling stuff. Just hope we can keep the score down in the second half.

 

Wild watching this and knowing that no matter what, United will win 1-0 at the weekend

 

If you can’t score against this midfield and defence you don’t deserve the title.

 

It was expected, but this is honking stuff from United. Put some youngsters in, can't get much worse.

 

It’s no less than they deserve but it’s absolutely hilarious that the Palace third goal wasn’t disallowed for the foul on Dalot when you look at our first disallowed goal.

 

The most baffling thing is Bayern looking at this and saying “yeah let’s have some of that”

 

Amrabat lucky he didn’t fully connect with that tackle…he would’ve been off.
