Match Day Thread General matchday thread.

Funny how it all went to ****e under that miserable bastard Jose. Even moneybags City ran a mile from Sanchez’ salary. I’d only worried about Rashford, out of all the players out of contract next season... he’ll get a good deal and sign though.

De Gea can go this summer, we don’t need his drama every summer.

Good shot stopper but distribution nowhere near good enough to take Utd to the next level
Actually would prefer Romaro of the 2 if they were to replace Ederson

Romero always looks very good when I see him. Don’t know if he’s not arsed about playing or was expecting De Gea to go but I’d question any player as good as him not being a number one somewhere.

Can't think of any club in the world with a number two so good.
 
Wanyama is a ****ing wrecking ball when he’s fit and in form. He’d anchor that midfield.

It’s a good system for beating minnows. City do it well with Silva and De Bruyne.

Lesser sides or against better teams can’t do it. Leicester got picked off at will against dogshit Newcastle trying to play Yes Ndidi in midfield by himself while Maddison and Tielemans ponced about pretending to be Iniesta.

That's quite a statement... I'm not that big on number 2's but I'm sure there's better?

PSG perhaps?
Chelsea and Arsenal both have 2 decent keepers.
 
You basically admire how Liverpool play?


Most people probably do tbh. Even though Klopp is an annoying man, his teams play very entertaining football.

Is he a better coach than Pochettino? Dunno. Both have strong visions of how the game should be played, and the ability to get players to buy into that; both are a bit one dimensional and blinkered at times. Neither have won anything yet.

You'd need him and Dier probably, then you'd lose one of HIAGs choices.

Like WW said it would work against lesser teams but not a whole season.

Klopp has won trophies mate. His Dortmund team were very, very good.

Got to disagree.

Apart from burnley, im not sure i would rate cabalero that highly or cech who is decrepit now.

I would have mingers over both in their current incarnation.

Koeman used to set Saints up like that sometimes - Long, Pelle and Mane up front, Wanyama in the middle of James Ward Prowse and Tadic. Pretty ****ing effective it often was. Koeman was a pragmatist though, he changed systems all the time to suit the circumstances and the players.

Liverpool seem to lack the creative spark in midfield that the other top sides all have and are a bit too reliant on the front 3
Having said that they have done really well to collect as many points as they have with such a one dimensional midfield

Mingnolet is **** mate. Karius is still on our books though, hiding in Turkey somewhere... hope he gets lost and crosses the border tbh :bandit:
