Even with the 115, even with the Jammy “What Billion” Dodgers, even with the Bone Saw Boyz, even with the egotistical Micky “We’re Extra Double Special” Mousers, it has to warm to club official cockles of your noodle sponsered heart to know YooUtd are still top of the the “Teams We Love To Watch Lose” table… 🙂

Again, that’s just so weird 😅. You care more about us than your local rivals?! We’ve had zero rivalry with Spurs over the years. Literally none, yet you so called North London local rivals would rather see Utd lose than your local rivals?! London rivalries are really shit, let’s face it 😂. So many players move between the sides without any fuss, you don’t care about seeing each other win or lose, managers jump between the sides with no issues.

Nancy don’t let United catch you ffs!

You Southern football fans have really weird rivalries 😂. Cheering each other on hoping other teams don’t catch up? That must be a Southern thing, surely? You’d never, ever have Utd, Liverpool or City fans cheering each other on like that!

Paul, yeah I’d expect Ten Hag to be gone if he doesn’t get 4th or at least wins the FA Cup and shows significant progress. Agree about his post match stuff. He says some odd things at times.

Has to be Southgate or Gerrard in my opinion if not Alonso. Amorim would be interesting choice. I fancied him at Utd but it’s a if step up from the Portuguese league. Similar kind of pedigree to Ten Hag who found the transition difficult.

On Southgate to Utd, I was listening to a Utd pod on the Athletic this week and they were very much questioning the authenticity of those reports, which is usually a sign there’s nothing in them.

Some good games today. Good to have proper football back. No doubt I’ll be longing for the International break again after today’s games are finished 😁

I never get excited about the Euros or World Cup, but if I do watch them I prefer to watch the slightly smaller teams that play with more excitement. Japan, Croatia, Colombia etc.

Yeah I’m not sure I would if England weren’t in it either. International football used to be the pinnacle but it’s lost some glamour, for sure, with the rise of club football.

Yeah that’s it Sean. You accept it as long as the results are there. I think I have more patience with the style of football at International level just because it’s always knockout games almost. You just want to get through most of the time. To be honest, I don’t find many of the best International sides great to watch. France are pretty poor to watch under Deschamps. Argentina aren’t great either despite their WC win. Brazil aren’t all that. Spain I find incredibly boring.

Benitez was loved at Anfield though Sean and he’s one of the most negative managers around. Mourinho at Chelsea and Utd. Conte at Spurs etc. The game’s probably passed that type of manager by, hence why I think Southgate would fail miserably in club football again. But I honestly think he gets far too much stick as England manager. I’m not sure who else England could get who would be a better option. I suspect it may be Potter after the summer with Southgate getting a club job, just not my club, thanks.

I’d be genuinely amazed if he got the Utd job quite frankly. I think the odds are based on the speculation which I don’t think is coming from the club. The likes of Berrada were brought in without a sniff in the media about it so it’d be odd if things started leaking now. It also doesn’t make sense time wise to bring a new manager in after the Euros. I don’t think there’s an ounce of truth in the rumours in all honesty, much to rival fans disappointment 😁.

I think he’s a good talker Mikus and I think he’s done a decent job at creating the right environment for these top players to succeed. It wouldn’t surprise me if he won something with England. I don’t think he’s a great tactician but I don’t think he’s a terrible England manager, just one that’s lacking in the tactical aspect of the game. I think he’d be a disastrous club manager though, certainly if he went in right at the top. Some managers just suit international football and I think he’s one of them.

Of course we won’t win it Mav but neither will Liverpool now and that’s something 😅

What a match! Unlucky to the Liverpool lads. We really needed that. I thought we’d get battered today but we ended up with almost twice the XG Liverpool had. Very unexpected. Mainoo is going to be some player. Looked the best player on the park at times.

This upcoming round is probably going to be the first one I’ll be bothered about. I can’t help but think the CL has been pretty boring this season so far. Nothing to do with my own team being out. I just haven’t found it particularly entertaining. If there’s a PL match on at the same time, I’ll usually opt for that.

It’s the way he starts laughing expecting everyone else to laugh with him and they all just look embarrassed for him. Punditry needs a real overhaul and, as you suggest Mikus, to move away from this desire for the viral clip with silly soundbites which can be shared on different platforms.

Anyone else see this? I almost feel sorry for Carragher. That’s so cringeworthy

That’s out of order if that’s the context in which Paul meant that Sean. I hadn’t cottoned on to that, if so. Mak offered up his own banning on email. I felt him offering to fight other posters and calling them retards and racists was a bit far. I’m completely in agreement that Adlab brings a lot of him upon himself with his conspiracy claims against his club. Let’s get back to football, though, eh?

Completely agree though that the not commenting on other clubs point was a tad extreme!

Steve, I hardly ever ban/block people. I only did it this time because I felt it was getting a bit out of hand. I’m all for heated debates. I just felt it was getting a bit too much. With Nine no longer around, sadly, I don’t really have the time to be constantly monitoring things here so I just felt I needed to do something there. I’m aware not all will agree it was warranted but I can’t please everyone. We could probably do with another moderator if anyone fancies it.

Apologies everyone but I’ve just had to block Mak for now. I just don’t have time to be policing the forum and it’s got a bit out of hand this evening despite my pleas.
