EvilenFroggen Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I mean, relatively. They're still in second and better than most of the league, but the mystique is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mystique is gone. They don’t play the “Man United way” anymore and I don’t think anyone fears going to Old Trafford. At least not the the extent they used to. Mourinho has the wrong mentality to play the way United fans were apparently desperate to get back when Van Gaal was there, but they swapped boring possession football for boring defensively organised football. Previously, as a neutral, you’d be excited that United were playing because they’d attack and play entertaining stuff. Now, it’s a chore to watch them. I’ve heard it said that Mourinho is just Pulis with pocket money. It doesn’t feel like that extreme of a comparison at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kempus Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I will be delighted if West Ham get relegated again. Couldn't happen to a scummier set of fans and club. With their massive white elephant stadium they could see themselves in serious touble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though his sarcasm in the pressers is becoming the stuff of legend; wondering out loud if some horrible illness befell so many of the season ticket holders for all the empty seats. Also, Martin Atkinson continues to further the case as to why so few managers actually voted for an English referee to be assigned to World Cup duty.

I'm sure Kroenke will be satisfied with another win or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVRamsFan Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Two straight clean sheets after looking horrible @ Brighton. This is what the team is with Wenger now unfortunately. It's like they flip a coin before the match to see if they'll play or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good result but the performance was still not really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKTexans Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share Posted March 12, 2018 Thoughts on United is Liverpool - Lukaku was imposing in the first half. Invisible in the second. The fact we have to bring on Felaini to win and keep possession proves my point. - Sanchez is absolutely wasted under Mourinho, add to that he looks as disinterested as he did in his final days at Arsenal. - Bailly makes such a difference to our back four, his mere presence makes Smalling looks twice the player he otherwise looks. - Young was outstanding, going into the game I lambasted Jose for not picking Shaw, but Young was excellent in containing Salah. - Liverpool don't have a plan B. They play excellent football and keep possession well, but when things aren't going their way they don't have an answer. They should have switched it to have Robertson and Alexander Arnold overlapping a lot more in the second half as we had no defence on the wings apart from Valencia and Young. - I don't know why VVD allowed Lovren to get bullied by Lukaku the entire first half. I know you have right or left sided centre halves but eventually you need to use common sense. - Honestly forgot Mata was playing until he was subbed off. He and Sanchez are so anonymous in this team. - The 3 points are the most important thing, but like others have said, this United team is poor. Not LVG poor. But very poor.

Buc Ball Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 No more Carragher on MNF for the time being it appears. What an absolute clown. He’ll be back, but hopefully Henry replaces him permanently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carragher spat at a child in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
