89/1 on the exchanges

I've had a couple of quid

 

[Me and my Monkey]

It's gonna be carnage.

 

[rool]

Weirdly ESPN are showing this here in Brazil

 

[Swansman]

Losing with less than five goals would be a win kind of.

Done the double ? Liverpool 125/1 to beat Arsenal

1-0, pen

1-0, pen

Dodgy pen, offside in the build up

Probably should cross reference this thread with the “watching too much football on tv thread”

Definitely offside in build up to the pen - so frustrating. Not that I was expecting us to be in with a sniff of a draw even, but it would be nice if we lost fairly

 

[Pevenseagull]

Fortunately the odds shortened so I got my money back .... and still stand to win £150 if we can turn this around!

 

[zeetha]

We are not quick enough to react, so the constant pressure has resulted in a 2nd goal. We need to do better keeping the ball too when we do get it

 

[GingerBeerMan]

How can a two horse race be 89/1 for one team? Is the difference in ability really that great?

They may not be highly paid but they are full-time professionals. Can I ask what do they do in training? They are awful. And I say that as someone who has watched them for the last few years.

Got two games on at the same time now

 

[Swansman]

Good numbers so far. Never winning this and goal difference might turn out to be very important.

I see looking at the table that the rich clubs have hoovered up the talent in and are dominating the women's game too... sigh...
Didn't MU only set up a women's team about a year ago!?

 

[jessiejames]

Not sure if anyone is aware but its live on sky showcase.

 

[hart's shirt]

2 goals down. 26% possession.

0 shots
0 shots on target
0 corners

Decent half-time team talk needed.

 

[zeetha]

Given who we're playing and whats happened with Brighton this week/season, being 2-0 down at halftime isn't actually that bad. Yes they are professionals, but they are also human and the team has had many changes (inc managers) and is very low on confidence. We also do not/can not recruit the same calibre of player like the top teams and there is a big difference between the top four and the rest.

Was actually four years ago, and they were made to start in the Championship but with their money and name it didn't take long for them to be in the WSL and at the top of it.
