Conte got 93 points in his first season with it

I refuse to believe it. If i believe it, i will have to adjust my reality.

Still hard to know if Amorim is good or not. That club is a f***ing graveyard. They could sign Remain In Light by Talking Heads and somehow manage to make it sound s***e.

The past few years of recruitment is an all-timer and will take years to undo. 
 

Still mad he thinks he can persevere with his way of playing despite clearly having the players, and as Smithdown said, he spends every press conference looking like he’s filled with regret now.

Be good when they take points off arsenal later, mind.

Interesting concept 

I'd love to see what Slot would do with Marquee Moon

or imagine if Klopp had signed Master Of Puppets

Would obviously be great but just can't see it happening. 

Arsenal should win by 3 or 4 really. 

Mind you, I suppose people were probably saying that before we played Utd. 

Hmm, this post has been a journey for me.

Haha yeah Arsenal will be favourites and maybe the PSV game has got their tails up again but they’ve been so useless going forward lately. Just have a feeling it might be a dreadful draw. United are spectacularly bad at home, mind. A team that bad having a pitch that big is a respite for disaster.

I would have been all in on arsenal dropping points today but I can’t see united hardly getting the ball off them tbh.  Also arsenal are about the only side not to have gone there and beaten them up to a pulp so far and it’s probably due.  
 

So I’m going in enjoying united’s demise and if they somehow pluck up a bit of courage they’ll hand us the league.  
 

Come Ed Kick Off.  Bring on Gerald Stindstadt.  

[Chewie]

This is win win for us.. 

United getting beat is always great

Arsenal dropping points would be great

Irrespective of today we need 16 pts out of 27 provided that at least one of those is against arsenal. If we get 3 against them we need 15...

It's all so so good

Totally agree. United are shocking at defending set pieces and that’s how Arsenal get there goals. I can’t imagine United anything less than a 0-4 loss. It is win win for me if Arsenal batter United I will enjoy but if miracles happen and United pull one out I will be estatic. Arsenal will blow them away in my view even without a striker.

That was a tweak aswell wasn't it. They'd lost a couple of games early on and he changed the system to suit the players he had.

He was four at the back til about 5 games in after they lost to us and Arsenal I think. Then he changed to his preferred 3 at the back and Costa and they went on a mad run

Well done to him.  
 

Universally unarsed about that team.  I can only think of Victor Moses in it.  Let Chelsea celebrate winning the league playing three centre halves at home for a change and then going to s*** with it the following season.

I think it shows how s*** Amorim is. He’s meant to be Conte in terms of stature but he is miles and miles off. There’s no comparison between the two.

[RedHarvest]

United could probably squeeze something out of this if the lazy useless pricks upped their game like they did against us...but they won't, they've downed tools and are trying to get the manager sacked so at least 3nil to the a***

Ah get this kerkez lad in. Made for Liverpool 

One of the best crosses of the season there

And that after a 50 yard sprint. Crazy good cross that was.

[Stanley Leisure]

Also he’s had a much-needed haircut.

Much more important than the ability to put a pinpoint cross into the box nonsense.

Side 1 would be a bit down tempo, but side two would be amazing?

First I've heard of Isak having a 75m release clause. Doesn't sound right.

I've no idea if this is true or not, but when you think about it, if you were Isak and you had ambitions, wouldn't you also ask for a reasonable release clause if you were joining Newcastle when he did?

Kinda makes sense as there's no way he saw Necastle as his peak club.

He signed in 2022 so perhaps not a mad figure at the time.

He signed for £60-65m, so having a release clause so close to that seems unlikely.
