*Official* English Football Season 2016-17

[Furball]

This has been a really bad refereeing performance. Hasn't controlled the game at all.

JM team, wearing blue and setup to frustrate / deny. This seems familiar.

 

[Tangles]

No chance they're scoring.

Looks like a nil all if the 2nd half follows the first.

I think we're doing pretty well. Liverpool have been worse on set pieces and individual errors this season so this type of game suits us. Worried about Rooney coming on though.

Rashford is struggling. Really not sure this is the place to learn how to play RM.

I'd love to smash Ander Herrera in a 50-50. Absolute prick.

Haha he is really good.

It is not at all surprising but the lack of bookings in the first few minutes was really annoying.

Lallana completely changing the game. WAG.

That tackle from Valencia before was something else

 

[grecian]

So what exactly is different in Mourinho's Man U, and van gaal's.

It's just as stupefyingly dull.

 

[cpr]

Well that was dull, spent the whole game looking at different places to go in Cancun in a few weeks, hardly looked up once. Just sounded so bland...

 

[Furball]

90 mins of my life I'll never get back.

Usual brand of shitebag football from Mourinho in a big game and Liverpool looked like they had no idea what they were doing when they got near United's final third.

Yeah it was pretty ****ing boring

 

[Furball]

Haha he is really good.

He's an absolute master at really subtly cyncial fouls.

Exactly the sort of player the sin bin should be invented for.

Unreal but it was his partly his mistake to let Firmino in behind.

Really terrible game and a quite bad result for both teams. I'm definitely fine with us using those tactics in a game like this though.

He's great, never met a United fan who doesn't love him.

LVG was about boring with possession. That was boring without. JM does it in big games not every week also.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

That was dire.

[dontcloseyoureyes]

It's a different dynamic to a city Derby but it's probably the closest we get in English football to the Classico

Hindsight etc, but what a post this is.

Mourinho is just a glorified Pulis these days. Close to 200m pounds to play like that.
