Mrviktor:
Maguire was good in the game.

Na Walker nd dier cause d goal

The standards for good seems to have changed. If you watched the match, it seems just because he didn't make a mistake for the goal doesn't means he was good. He wasn't worse than most of his teammates but I would not describe his performance as good. He was average at best and you can see his lack of confidence on display. Southgate is the worst culprit. He seemed completely clueless. Interesting to see how he does at the world cup because I know they won't sack him.

I have too much peace of mind right now. I miss watching this team. Can't wait for our next match for my blood pressure and general mental health to reach unacceptable levels.

Halaand about to turn premier league into Bundesliga

Manchester United have six contract decisions to make in next four months:

David de Gea - extend 1 year or sell in the summer.
Diogo Dalot - Extend 4 yr deal
Luke Shaw - let him go
Fred - undecided.
Marcus Rashford - Extend new 4 year deal. ( I have a soft spot for Marcus)
Cristiano Ronaldo - Let him go.

The club has an option to extend them all by one year. Who shall be extended & who should be let go for free?

Looks like our next league match will be City away.

Just ruining this football season with all these postponements. smh

Borntosmoke:
Giroud to me. How can I be comparing a trophy less player with someone that has won
Uefa Europa League
World cup
Uefa champions League
Pukas award
FA cup 4 times
Italian league
France league

You're using mostly team achievements to make an individual comparison.

realise his pass was still intercepted from that move?

Ellexy:
So he should be playing with injury cos he's being payed 250k per week?

No. Of course not. It's the general moaning about shirt number and not been able to handle criticism and expectations I have a problem with. To whom much is given much is expected.

Ellexy:
Ole no try shaa, he played some of these players into the ground.

He's been paid a reported 250k PW.

So senseless postponing this weekend's fixtures. Would have been better for everyy ground to have tributes for her during the matches. Now the fixture congestion is about to be wild.

elampiro:
They are only three months older than last season.

what a post.

That's never a pen but whatever.

LostMyZeal:
Are we going to talk about the fact Casemiro is just 30 and he plays like he's in his mid 40's

Let's assume he's still new sha.., if not, I nor understand again oh

I thought I was the only one who noticed this. We gave this guy a 4 year deal and he's already looking like Matic last season.

Karleb:
With Harry Potter at Chelsea and Liverpool shambolic form, top 4 is getting set.

Long may their woes continue.

Very long way to go if you think top 4 is set.

elampiro:
The same midfielders we were told were a million miles ahead of McTominay? When we argue we should also look at ages of players. Their are up coming players and there are those in their prime.

I think you should watch more matches.

They're playing 36 year old James Milner, 19 year old Harvey Elliot with either Fabinho or Henderson depending on who's fit. Fabinho, Henderson, Thiago and Keita have all been injured for many periods already.

elampiro:
Hope it will not end up be revealed that it was Mane who really was carrying Liverpool

Have you been watching their matches? If you have the issues is clearly their midfield.

Ellexy:
My boy

That training kit is nice.

patrickmuf:
I'd like to see a midfield combo of Case/Fred/VDB...

In attack, Garnacho/Ronaldo/Antony (Pellistri might start)...

In defense, AWB/Maguire/Lindelof/Shaw...Let's see if they have learnt anything from their time on the bench?

Any news on Martial?

Varane must be at home with his feet up because there's no way his body is not in the red zone.

Lana1:
I must say that they have anger issues at Chelsea

Someone you just backed with a host of record breaking signings. Why sack him less than 2 months into the season?

They sacked him 1 week after getting a striker he specifically requested.

Those Agberos are different.

Chelsea just trying to carry on tradition. Sack the man after backing him with nearly 300m worth of new signings less than a month later. Makes no sense but this is Chelsea we're talking about.

Illimitable:
Ole never beat Arsenal and Liverpool in a league game throughout his time at the club.

That should tell you all you need to know.




Maguire is a very terrible player. A horrible player and a useless captain.

Maguire has never won player of the month at the club. Martinez did that under one month of joining the club.

Bailly also won player of the month at the club under one month of joining the club.

This was why the fans were outraged that it was Bailly leaving instead of Maguire. Bailly was outstanding in the preseason but he doesn’t have a British passport so he had to leave for useless players to thrive at the club.

The passport is irrelevant.it didn't help Henderson or Lingard get in the team.

Bombblacks:
When all Our center backs were fit last season he was 4th choice behind an English, French and Swedish player. He couldn't even get game time ahead of Lindelof. Bailly should not be talking when he couldn't play 3 matches consecutively without getting injured.

We're saying different things.

I'm saying when Maguire was half fit he was still played ahead of Bailly who was fully fit at the time. And let's not forget Maguire was playing poorly. So despite being unfit or out of form, he was playing ahead of Bailly. Varane was injured quite a bit so Lindelof was playing quite a lot of matches but Bailly wasnt. That's the only point I'm making. Bailly didnt get an opportunity, I dont necessarily think its due to Maguire being English but he has a right to be salty about that.

He's obviously talking about the times a half fit Maguire was played over him.

I dont think he has a future at the club though and I think he knows that.

afrodoc:
How can you even remove the goals a team's centre forward has scored? Was he not bought to score goals?

When I see posts like that, I know to stop any further discussion.

afrodoc:
Any link? I am thirsty and i need to drink very salty and juicy tears.

The Lord has yet to make anything as sweet as Arsenal fan tears.

Beating Arsenal is always sweet. All those Arsenal fans on my zoom don finish today.

I look forward to the day we stop this McTominay in the lineup business. The guy was ok against Leicester, not great but we know his level. He's part of the reason we can't keep possession.

I doubt Antony will start.

Back 5 is the same but midfield should hopefully be Casemiro and Fred with Bruno.

Unfortunately front 3 will probably be Elanga Rashford and Sancho.

Arsenal are definitely a much more serious side than recent years. The only doubt I have is how they will manage the Europa League with premier league games. I think they might struggle with that. These first few games they have won Arsenal of previous years would not have won them. It's never easy consistently beating teams you should be beating.

afrodoc:
The biggest mistake ETH can make against Arsenal is for him to start Eriksen. The guy needs a good rest.

I actually thought the Leicester match was a good chance to rotate Eriksen with Fred or Donny and Varane probably with Maguire. But ETH chose not to. Varane can't be far from a muscle injury.Maguire own don finish for sure.

Seems Antony is not match fit at all as he hasn't been training for a while so it could be a while before we see him.
