And they're really quite crap. No pattern of play, guile or composure. But they get points. The beat teams who are vulnerable (like Leicester who are having a wobble). No way they'll go down instead of us.

Dyche moans at the officials all game. During injury time then one and half minutes wasted because of a Burnley injury. Dyche went apapletic that Lesicester got to take a corner one minute and twenty seconds after injury time should have finished. Commentators love him and he's never picked up on it.

Anyway could be worse. Could actually live and work in Burnley.

We are far too nice on and off the pitch. never get in the refs ear. The officials must love being the 4th official at our game knowing for years we never question anything other than we hope their changing rooms are ok.

The Villa that outplayed and out-battled us yesterday do you mean?

And this month have embarked on recruiting first team ready players, now bringing in strikers including the CL player who scored at Anfield. Buying their way out of it.

Wonder what the odds are on Brighton and Bmuff both dropping?

Leicester have no strength in depth. It’s only taken a couple of injuries for them to look like a mid table side.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer manager. Unlikely the majority on here, I don’t mind Eddie Howe at all, Rogers on the other hand is an objectionable slime ball (imho).

Yeah because the ton of money they spent in the summer worked out well for them.

Hypothetical question? What would it take for Tony to pull trigger if say we lost next 3 games and we're next to bottom. Would he think shit I took big gamble and it's bit me cos we all know the mandate is to stay in premier league no matter what?

Welcome Big Sam?

That should have been a goal and 5 bookings for Utd players for dissent.

Who may or may not score 10 goals for the rest of the season to keep vile up.
Many people think on here that the easy answer to us staying up, is to spunk money on another striker. If only football management was that easy.

Alternatively playing an entire season with only 2 strikers is all but asking to be relegated

United fans signing where's your famous atmosphere. At possibly the biggest derby in England, at Anfield ko 4.30 so all day to drink, Liverpool winning and on top and absolutely storming the league.

Just goes to show the issue of atmosphere in this country is not limited to the Amex despite what some people on here seem to think.

Atmosphere has been excellent.

But we have Maupay, Connally and Murray = 3. Are you saying that we should start with all 3.

My argument is that so many on here think the easy answer is to by another striker, and that will secure survival. Maupay was unlucky not to score yesterday, but he set up the first.

Murray is a striker in name only, which is why we have only had 2 all season.
The fact the Connolly is the other one is an absolute joke on the part of recruitment.

Without some genuine help for Maupay the club will, again, be playing fast and loose with relegation.



We've become so conditioned to have an appalling front line (and fantastic back line) we've completely lost sight of just how bad it is.
