  1. Been of the view for weeks now that 86 points wins it. One more defeat for arsenal and that's the most they can get. So that's 25 points from a possible 36 for us. Cmon lads.. Bring it home
  2. I'm claiming that one. Sat on the same spot from learning the score and didn't watch a second... You can all thank me later
  3. I'm doing my bit.. Have not moved, logged in or changed a thing If this one slips it's on you
  4. When I find myself in times of trouble I see united on tv Watching slow Maguire Is a treat And in my time of darkness, listen To amorim on 4-3-3 Saying they're the worst There's ever been Let it be, let it be Let it be, let it be Let this last forever Let it be
  5. It's a bold move cotton
  6. Not sure about this at all. Klopp tried with him but then pretty much sidelined him. There was a brief flurry when he was unplayable in the autumn of his second season, but apart from that he's not been trusted by either of them. This one ain't on Slot. It's on the recruitment of him in the first place. But recruitment will never be perfect. Just a shame that two big purchases, keita and Nunez, have underwhelmed, but to have only two that have seriously underwhelmed is a pretty high strike rate in the favour of our recruitment overall compared to most
  7. The guy just cannot be trusted to do what is right in situations that either experience or technique should have engrained within him the right thing to do. Any professional training day in day out should be able to score the open goal. Any forward training day in day out should have drawn the foul from Martinez so that he's red carded either chipping the ball over him or cutting inside and taking the clattering. The really gifted player would have squared to Salah, but at that speed to have the presence of mind to see and execute that would not have been the norm. The norm should have seen Martinez sent off. He may, from time to time, do something mercurial, but not frequently enough to be of consistent benefit. His most consistent attribute is helping to defend corners. His inconsistent ceiling is not high enough to accommodate his consistent floor. I'll be amazed if he's here next season. I'll also be amazed if Slot doesn't try and (over) rely on working with 4 forwards for 99% of the competitive minutes left in this season. All coaches, including klopp, grow more conservative and narrow the circle of trust as the season goes on. Elliott seems to have never been in it. Nunez will be out of it. Endo will play more minutes than both imo unless there are injuries
  8. He could easily have brought on chiesa or Elliott along with Diaz and reshaped the forward line that way. We really need Gakpo back
  9. Dalglish laid those on a plate to Rush for years. Rush did the decent thing and put it in the net. Kenny was the creator supreme and Rushie the deadly striker. Dom took the keeper completely out of the game and increased the likelihood of a goal from 60% to 99%. Darwin should have scored. The end.
  10. Still convinced that 86 pts wins this. We need 25 and 21 of those are available at home, including 3 against arsenal.
  11. I just want him gone now. It's not worked out. It ain't doing him any good and it's deffo not doing us any good
  12. What's worse. Arsenal playing without strikers or us playing with Nunez in this form
  13. We need to stop operation anfield exercise. The lads are playing every 3 days and have to do some training in between. Adding more work to the load is too much. Someone needs to have a word with George
  14. 60 points after 25 games (spurs win would mean still more points than Ev + MU)
  15. We look a tad shattered... Changes for villa perhaps Deffo think trent / Bradley continue to swap irrespective of who starts. Quansah might start. Tsimikas to start. Jones to come in, maybe for Mac? Think he starts the same first 3. Nunez not doing enough when he comes on to earn a place
  16. We should sign Agbadou just for the song potential
  17. Much harder to score in this team in the 9 role than from both flanks. Salah, Gakpo and diaz will all get goals playing from the outside in. Jota stands the best chance at 9 cos he's the best poacher
  18. The universe has decreed our bond. This too has been my journey. Turned on the game to see nil nil at '72 and told myself to turn it off immediately.. But did I listen, did I, did I!
  19. Hang that in the louvre... Mitoma what a touch and goal
  20. When it's a player I'd like I consider every source to be rock solid. When it's a player I don't like I give a little inhale, frown and indignantly dismiss the spoofer/s. It's not a very wise way to live, but it's a lot more fun
  21. No one in the middle looks good though. Diaz, like Gakpo gets his goals when starting left and poaching into space. Salah gets all his from the right. Only Jota at the start of the season looked good in the 9 but he's been right off it.. There's something about what we are wanting that role to be that seems to work against whoever is in it getting goals
  22. Yup Gakpo limped off and was pretty ineffectual Grav looked as if he was ill Bradley and Robertson should be fined half a years wage each for getting rank rotten stupid yellow cards and being on edge the rest of the game. Total stupidity. We attempted to take the sting out of it so much we had little sting ourselves. But we still should have won it. Shades of Newcastle away. Poor game. Grafted the win. Gave away 2 points
