What a great result and great to continue such a good run. United, Everton, Leicester, Southampton, Spurs, City. Some big scalps in those last 8 games. We're normally **** this time of year as well! Shame we can't have another crack at the Arsenal and Liverpool games with this new system United drop points again. Still Jose's to lose Stan?!?! It's 13 points now.... Thought we were a bit lucky in the middle of the game as City had 2-3 really big chances they failed to convert. Credit to Courtois on a couple and not bringing down Aguero with the one Cahill let run through. Luiz was exceptional but could have been an entirely different story if the ref had sent him off. I've seen them given though Aguero went down very easy. Aguero tackle at the end was appalling. One of the worst and most deliberate you will see. Fully deserves his 4 game ban. He has history with Luiz. Remember he did a horrible challenge on him in the fa cup semi that he somehow got away with. Little scum bag! But credit to us for riding the luck and taking our chances with some brilliant passing and counter attacking football. Massive statement. Need to make sure we now win the easier ones coming up. 5 games in Dec - all against sides we should be beating.
yes it is still Jose's title. Until someone is 15 pts clear of Jose deep into next year (March at the least). It is baffling to compare Jose & LvG records. Under LvG Manu picked up undeserving points. Under Jose they are dropping points in the last minute on several occasions. Under LvG De Gea was their best player. Under Jose De Gea was one of their worst players. Pep has no right, same goes for Conte. Delusional talking about title for Klopp, Poch & Arsene.
this league & season is not conventional any more - just like last season. I won't read too much on current form. 13 points will disappear in 3 games tbh.
Last season saw Leicester, Spurs and West Ham flying from virtually nowhere. This year the top 4 are Chelsea, Arsenal, City and Liverpool. Hardly an unconventional season by any stretch. United would have to make up 13 points and overhaul 5 other teams to win the league. To say it's Jose's to lose is frankly laughable. They are an outside bet at best. They need to focus on top 4. .
Yeah gotta back Giggsy on this one..... The **** are you talking about? Pep has no right? Who gives out rights? How much right did Ranieri have last season? The winner of the PL will be the team with the most points come seasons end, regardless of ****ing rights.
People earn their rights nobody gives it out Pep hasn't earned anything to consider for title. That was my stance from day one. You cannot ****ing compare last season to any ****ing season.
you talk absolute nonsense. this isnt Pep v Jose v Conte v Klopp v Wenger Its City, United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal.
You talk as if no one has the right to win the league unless they've won it before. Exactly how does anyone win it a first time then??! Notwithstanding the fact Pep and Conte have exceptional pedigree in winning titles. Stan, you're hitting a new low with this nonsense.
It's not Pep going for the title. It's Man City. They have players like Aguero, Silva, etc who are all title winners and are world class. Pep just happens to be the current manager.
United won it from 11 points behind once, but even then, they were in second place at that point, not 6th. Its not just that United have to claw back 13 points from us, but also ensure they get more points than Arsenal, Liverpool, City and Spurs..... Not gonna happen.
Exactly. At that time they were the dominant force in England and Newcastle hadn't won **** for years and collapsed in the run in. Its not that Stan has predicted United will win it, it's the 'Jose's to lose' type comments I struggle with. It's far too early and far too close to be anyone's to lose, let alone the guy in 6th!
More likely Mourinho will be sacked by the end of the season. ThickStan actually thinks Mourinho is better then Ferguson lol,
Another prawn sandwich brigade plastic, you are! Jose sacked already? wow! Comparing Jose to Alex is an insult to Jose. Alex had no competition. Just look at the talent of Managers in this year alone. Alex never had these many good managers in his 26 years put together
JM don't look happy to me and he's certainly jealous of Conte.Maybe he knows he's lost the life he wanted.
I was saying to a mate earlier, Jose just doesn't look happy at all. Started with us last season. The guy has lost the spring in his step, and it really looks like he just doesn't want to be here (in the PL). I think the guy should take a break from football management. He is away from his family at the moment too, living in a hotel.
