Would've been nice if United got at least one more defender.
I like Blind as a player, but he's better in midfield.
But Jose has a thing about height, which apparently is why he prefers that lump Fellini over Schneiderlin in midfield.

 

Everton are Everton going to do the most typically Everton thing ever and lose on Monday to give Moyes his first victory as Sunderland manager?

 

lol epic

lol@ Maureen

Pogba was garbage. What a "bargain:

 

Should have started with 3 in midfield. starting Lingard was a strange one

That being said could easily have been 2-2

 

Nah, it was the result your **** on a stick football deserved.

So glad you got Mourinho. So glad we got Klopp

 

Jose lost to Man City, Klopp lost to Burnley.

First half was poor, can't really play catch up to a Pep team once you go behind.
I still don't get the insistence on Fellaini. He's not a holding player, so he doesn't allow Pogba the freedom to go forward.
No pace either, Blind was too slow reacting in defence & allowed City to score.

Bravo was poor for City, I wonder if Hart will get recalled if this persists. Though it was only his first game.

Benteke looks like a good signing for Palace. They needed a decent striker

 

Excellent job of missing the point, Richard! I'm s not the results I was referring to, but the attitudes and class. Yesterday, Mourinho is throwing players under the bus. Players he's picked, played the ****ty tactics he came up with. Meanwhile, Klopp says, " I’m responsible for our bad performances, they are responsible for our good performances. That’s quite an easy deal."

The gulf is immense.

 

Jose said it's his fault, because he is the manager. Even if certain players let him down on the day he is responsible for picking the team.

 

Yes, and saying players let him down would be the under the bus throwing. Do try to keep up, 007.

 

No. In fact it was quite the most un-Everton like performance imaginable.

 

It was quite the performance. And Lukaku with a point to prove is quite the Lukaku.

 

Quite you.

 

Quite.

 

Not going to lie, kinda mad ESPN falsely reported a Christian Pulisic - the player of not just his generation, but any generation, and a god among men and boys - had scored a goal in Champions League play.

 

Disgusting effort from Spurs today.

 

Inty stole my post.

 

A great result, and I am thrilled with ten points from what was (on paper) just about the hardest first five games you could ask for.


Oh, and **** you, Costa!

 

Wrong, heelsy. Klopp was a manger everyone liked and would happily welcome. Then he went to Liverpool, so now he's overrated crap.

Come on, keep up!
