    Nobody really talking about Villa but they been on an absolute rampage, they edging up on second after no win in first 5 or so. Flying.

    Were always going to come good at some point. A good team with a good manager. Their only issue is PSR stopped them from investing more during the summer probably caused them to have the slow start. Saying that it's been a waste them signing Harvey Elliott and not playing him. If he's not wanted there & has no future at Liverpool, is he someone we could/should be interested in?

    Good point. Would have took it before the game.

    More importantly against the current champions we showed yet again we are not out of place in this league.

    Imagine before a ball was kicked at the start of the season,Sunderland fans wanting Man U to drop points in December against West Ham so they stay below us.

    This once I would be happy for Burnley to win. 5-0 would be nice.

    I know I've mentioned it before on here but this makes me smile everytime I see Wolves have lost again due to the interaction I had with one of their fans online a while ago. He educated me on how they would turn it around and we hadn't played anyone and he had looked at our fixtures and I shouldn't be too shocked if we lost the next 10 (this was the week before Man Utd match). Man Utd would be a mauling and Wolves would beat us easily. He had watched us and I was getting too excited when I said that so far I hadn't seen any weaknesses especially defensively, there was no way we could come back and draw 2-2 with Spurs like they had and unfortunately we would get relegated while they survived!

    Spineless bloke deleted his account a few weeks later without me even reminding if his comments!

    Brings me a little smile when I think they have picked up 0 points since him arrogantly educating me on the reality of the premier league, we have picked up 13 points i think it is?

    I was there. It was dire!! Both teams utterly terrible.
    On the plus side, waiting for the tram at old Trafford stop, hear a familiar accent. 2 South Shields red & whites getting on the tram with us. They’d Been in the West Ham end! Really good crack from both of them.
