Drawing 0-0 with Milan is an impressive result now?

Last season that same result nudged Conte towards the door...

In fairness he set us up and played for a nil nil when we needed to score at least 2 to win.
Was there that night. Was the worse I've seen us play since the 90s. Our first attempt on target came in the 92nd minute and iirc Sanchez was brought on when we were looking for a goal late on.
Decided that night that I would not go again while Conte was our manager
and didn't!

Pretty sure a few of our squad weren't showing up to our matches if Conte was still manager after that one...

Ten Hag says he is yet to start his strongest XI due to injuries.

I personally don't think he has a clue what his strongest XI actually is.

I’m beginning to think he hasn’t a clue in general.

No identifiable style of play in over a year now, signings have been heavily influenced by players he’s already managed or played against and on top of it all he seems very uncharismatic, doubt too many of the players are willing to smash through doors for him.

He’s had it tough by walking into a ****show of a football club so was always up against it but equally he’s done little to impress from his own perspective.

It was always going to be a huge challenge, stepping up from a cake walk into one of the biggest gauntlets in world football.

But there is a total lack of leadership at the club right now, that much is clear from how they are lurching from scandal to scandal and just how comfortable current and former players are to take open shots against manager and club in the media. The aura is totally gone.

They've spent £1.4billion since SAF left and have almost nowt to show for it.

Methinks Levy knew exactly why he passed him over

Still waiting for the UKIPpers to admit they were wrong on that one...

There doesn't seem to be a plan.
City have basically copied Barca and added an endless supply of money.
Utd are being drained by the Glazers, who are making random stabs in the dark.

Manyoo generate an enormous amount of revenue or they might be on par with Everton.

Chelsea's next 11 league games and the corresponding result from last season.
They didn't play Burnley, of course and the City match was at Stamford Bridge, but they lost that 1-0, too.
 
Lille beat Olimpija Ljubjana today 2-0 in the Europa Conference League.
It kicked off at 3.30pm (4.30pm local time) and the ground was mostly empty.
Why was it on so early and on the "wrong" day? No ****ing clue. Very odd.
