Football 19/20

[jamesrain]

Joke club you say,

[santowhir]

Did you listen to the piece above? Carragher stated that the way football clubs are run is that they protect their own even if they think/know they are wrong. And that this can have bad repecusions. It must be difficult for a player to speak out against something when he knows there could be very bad consequences to their career. Especially when they are making so much money.

I'm a little bit torn on Carragher, sometimes he comes across pretty well on sky sports and then other times it can be complete cringe.

talking of which, what do Utd fans think about the possibility of being taken over by the richer despot of MSB?

I hear OT is getting scruffy and I can't really see the glazers dipping in their pockets for a makeover so from some points of view it'd be a good thing. And it'd be amusing for City to find themselves outspent.

Old Trafford is a shit hole. All rags I know would welcome being bought out by a Saudi prince.

United can and do outspend City now, they don't need a Saudi prince.

I did and Carragher did the right thing by offering the apology, just need the club to do the same now, can't see it happening.

I don't mind him, he works quite well with Neville. Both are pretty decent at analysis.

Another shot on target for Utd tonight!

The peno.

Can we be civil please people? Its only a game of football. We can have discussion without insults or lowering the tone.

Went to Italy at the weekend - saw 3 Serie A games and 2 were negatively affected by the process of VAR. Good to know it’s not just England. 

Other things to note were that attendances seem to be on an upwards trend from my last visit, and that Lukaku still always scores when I watch him live. 

[vintagelaureate]

No major League cup shocks, Oxford probably the biggest. 

The Liverpool vs. Arsenal game tonight could be good with the blend of youth and experience both sides will field, all three games tonight look decent.

Not quite sure what was going on at Anfield last night but it was an entertaining affair if nothing else.

yeah, really enjoyed that. Loads of errors but some great skills on show too. 

Both teams look like they've got some very decent kids. It's a shame so few will ever make their respective first teams.

Plenty of the Arsenal youngsters are getting first team minutes, but its whether they're given time to develop consistency.

And for Liverpool I hope Elliot, Jones, and Brewster will start making appearances by the end of next season.

Harvey Elliott looked fantastic last night. I believe he was the youngest player on the pitch but he looked great. 
Incredibly weird game that I’m not entirely convinced either team actually wanted to win. Our bench showed Klopp didn’t give too much of a shit.

Martin Atko. Fuck you!

You want Partick Thistle. Nice wee club under the stand and they always have a couple of players in after the game to sign stuff and get pics with the kids.

We got Rangers colts away which is a crappy draw. I was tempted by a trip to Scotland, but wanted to see a proper team!

Easty what's the 80's quiz show music played at the Etihad during the warm up?
