General Football Nonsense

Glad to hear England’s successful World Cup under England’s most successful manager has kept him in tip top form!

Good to see the break hasn’t done the toon any harm. Nice to win a boxing day fixture for once. From 2nd bottom to 2nd top in a year. Not bad going. Looking forward to Leeds at home this weekend as I’ll be there. Hopefully they’ll be done in from Man City on Weds and we’ll tear them a new one

Nunez in goal purchasing failure.

Mad_Cyril

Was looking forward to this as first PL game for so long.

Weird game, horror-show ‘finishing’ from Núñez.

As soon as Agbongolahore & Macmanamanamanaman showed up hit the off button.

Will wait until tomorrow

Mad_Cyril Nunez for man of the match for missing all those chances 😂

RichM thought he was a right handful today despite a few too many offsides.

Clueless Utd fans used to laud JLingz because he ‘runs round a lot’

RichM

alistair he is there to score goals and he isn’t doing that. I’m not convinced by him yet

Am still a bit hopeful it will come good in the end though

Echo

alistair

RichM neither am I fully but he always fronts up, stretches defences with his direct runs and pace and creates space for others. Can’t wait for the goals to also come

Mad_Cyril

Interesting if true

Mad_Cyril would be a bit odd for United to sign yet another winger… not what we need… plus we simply don’t have the cash right now

alistair

Top turn and finish by Nketiah. Taken his chance with aplomb. Arsenal look the real deal

Jules72 Cody Cackpoo.

He has a good strike on him, but the rest of his game is mediocre.

I agree he’s not what Utd need. Had ten Hag really wanted him they’d have surely got the deal done.

Mad_Cyril

Jules72 would be a bit odd for United to sign ~~yet another winger~~… not what we need

Agree with this bit. Except the winger bit. Doesn’t seem clear what his best role is, which makes me nonplussed if I’m honest.

Jules72 plus we simply don’t have the cash right now

Not necessarily this bit.

Jules72

Done deal then. Seems reasonable view vs what we paid for Antony imo

Smallman1

Gakpo for £37m is a great bit of business.

We paid £65m for Cucurella.

Your assessment of value holds no water following your recent transactions with Uniqlo!

Wally

Smallman1 Klopp moaning like a sour twat that Liverpool can’t spend like other teams when they were in the shit at the start of the season, casually dropping 35 to 50 million just like that on a star player.

Fair play for the signing, but STFU about not being able to spend.

Echo

hugopal Cody Cackpoo

Signing for

Absolute scones.

Mad_Cyril

See bit on cash reserves… doesn’t mean the cash can’t be raised but I can see the Glazers wanting to hold off on large expenditures just before the club’s sale

bosstrabs

Mad_Cyril Your assessment of value holds no water following your recent transactions with Uniqlo!

If Smallman was choosing a kit manufacturer for Chelsea, he would probably go with Macron, given his tastes.

Am aware.

There’s also the argument about making an investment more attractive though. Which might make a player purchase more probable.

Having said that, if said investment sucks the soul out of the club, that would be a very sad day.

Feels like we’re on knife-edge right now and playing personnel is a trivial matter!
