It's an irrelevance, Brosef, this competition. Mickey Mouse.

Only you care.

Go back to trying hard on AE.

Interesting that Mourinho sarcastically referred to journos and
pundits as Einsteins for suggesting what his team should be.

Subs Rooney on and hey presto they score 5 min later......

Yep. United were awful last night without Rooney in the side. Which backs up my theory that most football fans such as Lux don't know much about the game. 1 win and they get carried away. 1 loss and they get carried away. Football, as we know, is all about the bigger picture throughout the season.

If City lose this weekend and Liverpool win - they will say it's Liverpool's title. And vice versa the following week.

It's all too easy to get carried away, we see it with Liverpool fans after one win. Get carried away when you actually win a trophy.

hard on

Huh huh

very wise I'm sure, Keslar, but why have you dragged me into this gloryboy thread?

Man, we should have met up in Marseilles.

Rooney subbed on and hey presto, United score
shortly afterwards. Pattern developing here.

Rooney assist, Martial with the goal.

Grant MOTM so far with some great saves

[LUX]

Just popped in to get the United news, cheers.

[Brosef Stalin]

Joe Allen has levelled it up for the visitors. United should be well ahead

Should make it exciting for the last ten minutes

[BR2]

Was it an exciting draw?
I didn't bother to watch it as the garden hedge needed cutting.

It was as soon as Joe Alleniesta smashed home that equaliser.

Lee Grant of Derby and Burnley fame also had an absolute blinder in net for the Potters. They do say that the level of keepers doesn't vary much between the top two divisions.

Can that really have been claimed/logged as an assist? If so, time to scrap that stat.

Massive misspending AGAIN by Utd, which is brilliant.

Zlatan will be the new Schweinsteiger and Pogba the new Balotelli. (I know he didn't play for them but a similarly overhyped player with a BBB mentality.)

Taking shape nicely.

[No Fixed Abode]

I thought Zlatan (although not his best game last night) is starting to look pretty sharp now. He's been a decent signing so far. Pogba has been a disappointment though.

Still, the English El Classico on Sunday. Chelsea v United. Will be an interesting game and hopefully much better than that last night.

[Winston Smith]

Couldn't be arsed with the Sky Sportsgasmtastic match last night, sounds like I made the right decision.

It was last seasons 5th & 8th best teams, one of which has decided to become the most boringly defensive team on earth.

doubt I will bother with 'The Kes Derby' either.

[Sanguine]

Nice description of Pogba from the Guardian comments section.

....flailing around like a Carlton Palmer marionette with a couple of cut strings.



Disagree on Ibrahimovic, Kesmond. He's always been strong, that won't change, and he won a decent amount of the balls pumped up to him despite the attentions of Matip, who himself is a big lump. But most of Zlatan's touches went to no-one in particular, and that header was poor.
