As you have said many times, some refs are ****. Unfortunately for you Moss isn't one of them

 

In your opinion

Theres been many "****" refs down the years that have gifted your club, but of course you see no wrong in that because at the time it benefitted Utd, now you'll ask for examples but in doing so you'll be showing your bias.

 

I see **** refs and linesmen every week now mate, the more camera angles and slow/stop motion there is the worse they get

 

Er, yep, but just like you're rabbiting on like a rabid dog about Mane's challenge you're not feeling any guilt over the times Utd have benefitted from pure **** ref's decisions, mostly under Fergie.

It's okay pointing out the times Fergie himself got done by the FA but his players(on occasion) got away with(and other clubs btw)red cards for reckless play, you seem overly angry about Mane's red even though he got it and will now serve a three match ban.

What more do you want Diego?, shall we sell back him to Southampton in January to appease your outrage?

Btw I've had a few scoops meself so, I'm going to get my 'ead down now mate, so answers on a postcard to 'Santa Claus, the North Pole, the Arctic Circle'

Night Diego.

 

What have you been on tonight?
I have not condemned Mane in any way or ever (maybe rarely) said that we have been hard done to, why should I show any guilt?

We all get good and **** decisions, I am prepared to accept most because I am used to the game being played in real time by humans.
When a ref makes a good decision within the laws of the game it should be accepted, god knows they get castigated enough when technology proves them wrong.

 

No, he said he hoped an appeal wouldn't be needed

 

If we get it reduced to 2 games then in reality it's only one as I wouldn't expect him to play the League Cup game anyway.

 

VvD played for Soton u23, lost 4-0 and was at fault for 3 of them.

Clearly putting the effort in playing for Soton then, his integration to the 1stXI is going to be fun.

 

The poor fella is going to need a few games.

To either prove he's a total liability

Or

To build his match fitness and sharpness

 

Let's hope Couthinho's comeback doesn't go down a similar route.

 

Not our problem

lets not borrow it for ourselves eh?

 

Think we'll probably grab VVD in January but the problem is we need another good CB, a good CM, any LB, and a world class goalie ... try that in January

 

Some of this should have been sorted out this summer

 

Indeed. I'm baffled as to why the club hasn't bought any of those ... ok goalie I can understand, out of all those positions it's the least desperate but we are totally abject in CB, CM and LB positions and this has been abundantly clear for a long time now. Ok so we couldn't get VVD in the summer, fine, look elsewhere, same if that's the case in January, there are way better options than what we have at CB in Klavan and Lovren across Europe. Even Matip has been worrying so far this season, he doesn't seem as assured as he used to be which to me reflects an underlying structural problem basically in and across the entire defensive zone of our team starting in the middle of the pitch and working backwards

Forgetting that the other major issue here is why does there seem to be an apparent lack of desire to bring the necessary players in at the managerial and boardroom level. Or is it that they genuinely think we are capable of competing and winning a trophy/trophies with the current squad ?? If it's the former then that is badly apathetical and if it's the latter it's worryingly blind or recalcitrant

 

Hendo as Smithers ... perfect

don't. for get. yer. he ar. for. ev a

 

From what i saw on Thursday Ford did not look intergrated into the team. Everything he tried was individual runs, shots etc.
Now this could just have been to try hard due to the circumstances he finds himself in.
I hope he is goingto get into the team spirit today

 

If I recall, he takes a few games to get the pace of the game....at least after injury anyway. Last season he had a perfect preseason and started on fire....we may see a few abject performances before we see the real player.....all assuming that he even f#cking tries.

 

wasn't injured though

 

Apparently, Barca and Real Madrid are sniffing around Mane.
