    Yes. Also I absolutely love that Rose's strategy for being up by 1 in stoppage time is "Try to score again! Kill! KILL!"

    Ronaldo scores 2, but United still not looking very solid.

    Thoughts on United vs Newcastle:

    Seeing Ronaldo in Red again was as good as can be expected, gutted he didn't get the hat-trick
    Fernandes' goal stole the show, master class
    Anthony Taylor is a braindead moron, no idea how he got a license to ref. 3 occasions where he should have given us a FK and didn't, and randomly pulls a booking out of his arse against Pogba for...being fouled??? United should be asking for that to be investigated, no way Fergie would have put up with that
    Commentator top quote 'It takes some strength to come inside Varane'

    But yes, this is our season. Weep non-United fans, for we are finally BACK

    You utterly dominated that match. You were exposed briefly during a couple of counter attacks which happens to all teams who dominate at some point during the match.
    The performance today was similar to the performances you saw during the Fergie days. Opponent sits deep but you just overwhelm them

    no more excuses for united. they've got the players, expectations are as they should be. win the league, or it's a failure.

    saul starts today for chelsea, nice.

    and if not win, they 100% need to be challenging up to the last game of the season, they can't finish 12 points behind again.

    and if they do miss the league, they need to win at least one cup.

    Top of the league. Brace for Ronaldo. 4 goals scored. I'm assuming Richie has been negative?

    I'm a little hesitant to draw conclusions about Man U going forward mostly because it was Newcastle and that first half was terrible. I think it's definitely going to be an interesting competition at the top of the Premier League table, though.



    A COMPETITION FROM WHICH CURRENT STRONG CONTENDERS FK ZÁPADNÍ ŠUNKA SJEDNOCENÁ WILL EMERGE VICTORIOUS!

    I don't even like the hammers, I just find it hilarious that they keep recruiting directly from Slavia.

    watkins and ings are a really dangerous pairing, can't be so shaky at the back.

    timo's speed is the perfect complement to lukaku. he may not hit the shots, but he makes incredible runs and occupies defenders.

    great 2nd half. villa are no joke, very talented and balanced.

    The number of truly incredible shots from Athletic Club that are going to waste tonight because Mallorca are just that good at getting their defenders in the way is almost depressing. They should consider letting a bicycle kick through as a treat.

    Liked for that hilariously literal translation. [face_rofl]

    Shame I'm probably the only person around here who can appreciate your Czech puns and references... :p

    Good to see Bruno silencing the "He only scores penalties/free kicks" and "He'll be overshadowed and drop off when CR7 comes in" crowd



    Pogba with 7 assists already in 4 games.

    The only real issue is having a doughnut team (very nice but it has a hole in the middle).

    Liverpool, City & Chelsea's midfield will dominate McFred & Matic (who looks like he can just about play 60minutes a week if that).

    Trying the "we'll just score more than you" tactic won't win the league.
    Didn't work for Klopp when he started at Liverpool

    If Matic was 28 I'd be confident of challenging until the last week or so.
    But he's not and we didn't bring in anyone

    Well, Hertha's up by 2, which has not previously occurred this season, but so far the problem has been getting up and staying up. It's going to be harrowing to find out if Dárdai has actually solved our defensive issues in the second half.

    Harvey Elliott looks like he'll be out for a bit.

    Bad looking injury.
