  1. Perhaps United might go in for Dick Emery, after he's been sacked by Arsenal?

    He’s done well with Atleti...he’d certainly make a Utd a tougher prospect to play against. Ok, it’s not always pretty, but you currently don’t have the players to play pretty football,

    The poch comment was an answer to a direct question

    The debate was discussing your views on poch being like Fergie <laugh><laugh>

    Do you know how this works?

    That’s exactly all we have! We don’t have the players to play his defensive crap. That’s why Jose is failing so miserably, he’s attempting to make our team play defensive ****e when he has a pool of attacking players, and Matic.

    Spurs fans thinking Levy wouldn’t cash in on Pochettino perhaps need to consider how Levy intends to pay back his astronomical loan on the stadium. Some cash has to be raised.

    You have Rashford and Linberg.

    Yes, your defense needs propping up. I think Bailly is a good player, but another CB is required.

    We have Rashford, Lingard, Martial, Pogba, Mata, Herrera, Sanchez and Fred who would all want to play attacking free flowing football.

    I can’t even talk to you mate you know absolutely nothing.

    Tbf I don't think Smalling is a bad player if the team is set up right. Not world class or anything but solid enough and previously one of our better players

    Jose has just killed the team

  13. The good news for Gooners is that 5th spot is looking pretty safe for them, now.

    I forgot Martial.

    Sanchez? Playing for money only. Pogba? There’s a v.good player in there somewhere, but it’s all about him with Pogba,

    Mata. I really don’t know why he doesn’t play more. He’s the only real playmaker you have.

    How are any of these supposed to look good when Jose plays that awful system? All he does is blame Woodward. Fergie won league titles with arguably worse squads (on paper).

    It does feel as though you have pulled away from Arsenal now and it will stay that way.

    Don't get me wrong I think you guys done well with signing him and keita, but today our mf was non existent and he had space and time to operate. Still had to do it mind

    This comment is basically the equivalent of somebody taking a wild swing with their hand bag
