PEH rightly given MOTM on the Beeb. Longest winless run since 2004/2005 though *gulp*. Let’s fix that against Palace. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42411000
I understand no offence taken, I need to proof read my posts more often. I was dreading watching the game today so for once I can use an old term my rugby coach told me one day, "beer never taste good in defeat" so I am working on the last of a six pack as I type and it is tasting really sweet right now.
Likewise sir. Having a celebratory pint myself. Yes, wasn’t correcting the post, just entertained by the Moroccan reference!
Well that was goooood. McCarthy was a revelation, PEH was strong, Boufal is getting better and better. And defence not too bad at all given the 2 missing FBs (& VVD gone). Very encouraging.
We need a leader at the back next to Hoedt, And a Striker, Who is going to get you 20 goals and we look very threatening.

trouble is I think you’re right. Said before, I think it was a rest to “allow” Alex to get get tonked & then prodigal returns. Hope we’re wrong.
It felt in control having Alex between the sticks. Less panic, more assured. I hope MP keeps faith with him, we can at least encourage competition for positions in the team, otherwise why should the fringe even bother trying.
I mised the match live and went to see Star Wars - The Last Jedi instead. I found out about the result after the film, and it sounds like The Force was as much in evidence at Old Trafford as it was at the cinema. As long as the rebels can stick together/regroup and we don't miss Skywalker's presence too much, we should easily take down the Palace Death Star (to mix several metaphors and more than one Star Wars film).
Back up keeper comes in and keeps a clean sheet at OT. That's called taking your chance - he can't be dropped now.
