i’m torn. struggle to get over that you can never truly celebrate goals like before, probably the biggest reason i’d want it gone, but at the end of the day you’d still be left with the same crap referees making the same crap decisions.
also think VAR has corrected some massive howlers since...
there’s a very dystopian (and admittedly unlikely) outcome here where you effectively get cities overseas bidding to host premier league games. eventually, with the money that would generate, most games in the season would be up for grabs. pl would probably set a limit that a minimum of, say...
another one in the cabinet for the most boring club in the league. camera cut to their away end when haaland scored the second, nobody even looked like they really cared. another entirely hollow achievement from a club that has cheated their way to the top, continued to do so once there, and has...
it’s the wigan game, indisputably, for me. i mean, it more or less confirmed that we (f***ing brighton !?!?!) would be in the premier league. and then there was a huge pitch invasion and a massive booze up in town. what more could you ask for?
he’s a good choice for a rebuild but it’s still a very tall order. there’s a lot of shifting to do, looking at that squad i’d say:
rashford
bruno
antony
maguire
mctominay
lindelof
casemiro
are all either toxic or not good enough, and getting rid would involve taking a big financial hit on the...
potter would be a disaster. if ten hag can’t managed the egos in that squad there’s no way potter would be able to. can’t think of a bunch of players he’d be less well suited to managing, actually. they’re the reason man utd are in this crisis, a couple of bad results and the toxicity starts and...
if so i could definitely see him on a one year deal back there!
reading the article though, i took him saying that he’s been away from his family for four years to mean he’s been away since he left liverpool
always put in a shift for us, and an excellent player on his day. we will miss his invaluable experience. i know RDZ wanted him to stay but tbh it feels like now is the right time to move on. wonder if he will continue playing or go into coaching, either way, sounds like he wants a move back...
seems absolutely ridiculous that this is still going to be in place, given we won’t be in europe next season and TB has reduced to a minority stake in USG.
wants out of ajax in the summer. sounds definitely like something we’d do, but i really hope not. midfield signing needs to be as close to a ‘marquee’ player as we can get, not another has-been
well acquainted with that already. give me PR asap. lucky enough to live in brighton pavilion constituency, so i can meaningfully vote green at the general elections. don’t even like them that much, i think their housing policy is very weak, and they like shooting themselves in the foot, but...
