    "Go and get the guitar!"
  2. VAR and Refs | General Discussion | May 15: Premier League clubs to vote on proposal to scrap VAR from next season

    VAR is great in principle but, we essentially have 2 referees reffing the game which where the problem lies. Why not just put both on the pitch? Or send the pitch referee to the monitor everytime and let them figure out if they need to issue a red card, penalty or whatever. Leaving the main ref...
  3. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    While they were also the far better team. We couldn't get near them or keep the ball away from them during this period. The rest of the game went as you described. They sat back and just saw the game out without much effort it seemed. I guess people gave Ten Hag credit for tactics today but...
  4. Post match vs Arsenal

    I did watch it. Did you?
  5. Post match vs Arsenal

    Arsenal still had a couple gears left. They didn't need to use them as we were never really a threat going forward. This was as easy as it gets without having to expell too much energy as far as Arsenal were concerned. We were crap, have been crap, will always be crap with this manager and...
  6. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    Goals wins games, defense wins titles. The exact opposite of that is Ten Hag football. No goals, no defense. Not a lot of anything really.
  7. Crystal Palace vs Manchester United

    So kicking through players to get a ball isn't a foul anymore. I mean, still deserved but come on.
  8. VAR and Refs | General Discussion | May 15: Premier League clubs to vote on proposal to scrap VAR from next season

    Yeah. Gvardiol runs over the back of Pedro. Outside the box that's a cynical foul and a yellow card. Oh wait......it's City. Nevermind.
  9. How bad have our injuries really been this season?

    Ooof! Hard to believe every single one of our players is injury prone. When someone like Maguire gets injured (who was quite reliable before ETH). We've had consistent injury problems all season.
  10. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    They haven't done all season why would you expect them to do it here. It's a defensive problem that Ten Hag can't solve. It's the same goal we've given up time and time again. That's a tactical problem.
  11. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    So He's resorted to hoof ball. This is absolutely garbage football.
  12. Brentford vs Manchester United

    Bit shite! I don't understand the lack of effort. Brentford are in woeful form and we can't pin them back. They keep coming and we keep letting them.
  13. Scotland National Team Discussion

    It took me a while to come around to Clarke. I thought he was the same exact manager as we've had over the last 20 years and didn't expect much of him. At the time I was quite annoyed because the talent pool had significantly improved and the manager didn't meet the standard of that talent. But...
  14. Things about football that get you unreasonably annoyed…

    I think it's this one. Instead of allowing the ball to roll around the net for the, "net bulge", if you will; it stops the ball dead and takes away the beautifulness of the goal. Anyways, just one of my annoyances.
