I’m baffled at how they didn’t give the handball in the build up, I think he actually managed to handball it twice!
The coverage is so one-eyed they barely mention it.

Newcastle playing well, but Jenas is such a twat. Guimares with a swinging arm at Ugarte, “there’s nothing in that” according to Jenas.

Yeah the Geordies gave it a real go that half. But not for the first time, PSG big money players barely trying a leg.
Maybe they will turn up for the second half.

Fair play to the Geordies. They’re giving it a right go.

No idea how VAR managed to give the second goal with one of the most obvious handballs you’ll see in the buildup.

I see fat Frank is being heavily linked to the Rangers gig, why do these clubs still believe the hype about him? Fucking awful manager.

I forgot they signed Mount. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Yeah I think it was to try and tempt Rice as well, TBH.
I also think there's something in that agent thing mentioned below. Quite a few of them seem to have been in the Dutch league or passed through Ajax at some point. Anyway it's enjoyable to see so much damage being done to them. I think they are genuinely in a rather worse state than when he joined.

Ten Hag looks like a right stubborn cunt, maybe even more than our stubborn cunt!
They are an absolute disaster at the back to the extent that Maguire should probably get called back. Looks like Ten Hag has made his mind up though and is resolutely sticking to it. Classic stuff.

Mike. The Mount deal went through because they had a hole in midfield that needed filling. And to keep their English quota numbers up. (They thought getting rid of Maguire was a given.) But hey. Fuck them.!

It's possible that they only bought Mount as bait with which they hoped to lure Rice up there and were quite willing to then ship him out had that happened.
Amusing, at the very least, that he seems to have become one of their better buys.

This Onana business is very bizarre, what the fuck have they bought? The fella is an absolute calamity and surely must be close to being dropped? As for Mount, fuck me he's awful, even the penny has dropped with waistcoat now. Early days still but I think the Danish lad looks the real deal, looks like a real number 9 and has an arrogance about him too belittling his years. It just proves if you're good enough then you're old enough.
Their game at home to the Bees on Saturday could def be worth a watch, massive pressure on Ten Haag for that one.

DeGea was increasingly having his moments (thanks for jumping over Benrahma's BOBBLER) but has to be a better prospect than the Roberto-like ONANA.
Not seeing any of the attribute he was supposed to bring as an Ederson style keeper.
They have wasted millions on some ordinary players, seem an unhappy camp under Ten-Months who looks like he could start a fight in a phone booth.
Casemiro is on the decline and has lost his Real Madrid immunity so will continue to get sent off while he is trying to hold the fort behind the likes of Bruno F & Mount.
That said the striker Holjland looks promising ... runs hard, aggressive and gets in the box.
In a couple of years he might be worth the £70m they paid but its a lot of pressure on a 20yo kid.
Good news is that the GLAZERS are seemingly going nowhere so this shit show will continue.
FANTASTIC!

Fergie has fucked them. They were never a league team before he rolled in.( Only won it a couple of times in the hundred years prior.) And he’s falling out with the horse owners invited in the Yanks. As for the players there. Ain’t most of them who have been brought in. Clients of Ten Haag mate.?

goose - The best player, possibly, but Bellingham is comfortably one of the best players in the world today.
As for the Mancs, it's a disaster on and off the pitch, fuck knows where they go from here, and I doubt sacking Ten Haag would make much difference.
The Danish lad looks immense though.

‘Transformational signing’ is all those twats at Manchester United were saying when Onana joined. He’s a ‘ball playing goalkeeper’ who will set up attacks more effectively.
A keeper that lets in most shots that aren’t straight at him or very close to him is not really a keeper.
It gets funnier by the game.

It's surely a matter of time for two bob to get sacked. Way way out of his depth and almost every player he's signed has been absolute shit. (Although it cracks me up because it's Man U signing them, every one gets a load of puff pieces and talked up as being a brilliant buy in the media before even kicking a ball) he's wasted hundreds of millions of pounds on 'clever' buys and they are worse than they were at the start of the season.
Just getting into a deeper and deeper mess. Squad full of expensive shit they'll never be able to sell, and manager alienating half of them. Superb.

I think the Manq fans call him “Ten Bob” :-) The issues there are not just ownership but the whole club and its fans sense of entitlement. Their recruitment is getting worse too.
They’ll be in the Europa by the looks of things? Although I’m not sure if they even qualify for that the way things are going?
Arsenal as some of us said are finding this second season harder being “back”’in the big time. Teams will know their strengths and weaknesses. I always thought Rice choosing them to play in Europe and get trophies was a bit premature as they have only had last years great season. It took City a while to start competing well in Europe.
Anyway, that’s enough of the entitles rich 5 or 6 clubs. We have our own tough encounter against the Jerries to deal with

Crazy thing with Onana is Inter signed him on a free from.................Ajax when ETH was the boss i think, he then turns around and buys him for ManU a few seasons later for how much? LOL
Makes Brentford's upfront demand of £40m for Raya look pretty reasonable. He was right there given that he only ended up moving to Arsenal by default.
Should have kept De Gea.......................but im loving it!!!!
