The 2 sides playing tonight are the worst Arsenal and Man Utd teams I've seen in years. Until tonight I thought talk of the top 6 was exaggerated I've now changed my mind 

Worse than even the second teams Fergie and Wenger put out in the cups

Rashford is absolutely appalling btw. He is nowhere near good enough to be leading the line for a club like Manchester United.

[SecretPro]

Actual dogshit. My brother (United fan) laughed at me a few weeks ago and called me delusional when I said we'd finish top 6, typical Leicester fan delusion, asked me who would we replace in the top 6, I said United or Spurs (hopefully both) and he was beside himself with laughter. I also said Ole would be gone by Christmas. Guess he isn't laughing now, delusional bellend.

Said it from day one about Rashford. People fell for this purple patch when he first came in under Van Gaal. He's Southampton level.

[StriderHiryu]

If you told teenage version of myself that we are living in a timeline where Leicester City are third in the table, just won 5-0 at home, are genuinely a better team than both Manchester United and Arsenal and have won the Premier League more recently than either, he would have asked you what you were smoking, and if he could have a toke.

 

I have no idea which fan sold their soul for this to happen, but it is glorious. I was skeptical when King Power took over the club, but we won the club owner lottery jackpot.

 

Honestly, what a time to be alive as a Leicester fan!

Harsh on the Saints.

[SecretPro]

So many awful footballers in that United squad now it's unreal. Really really average side. It's gutting that we gifted them points.

Thing is it genuinely is.

 

Derby.

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

Just in case we get too harsh on Rudders*. Although they haven't mentioned Maguire yet. 

Shows we've made some class investments with the likes of Soyuncu and Evans. 

 

 

 

* though there's a been a couple....

he's definitely nowhere near the level of danny ings, and if anyone would offer me a decent price i wouldn't mind backing che adams to outscore him this season, even giving him a 3 goal headstart. 

 

they literally had to randomly decide he was their number one penalty taker just so he could score more than 5 goals in a season.

Fair and honest interview from OGS.

"I'm out of my depth and can't believe I've not been sacked yet".

 

Something like that?

[Aus Fox]

United have an away game on Thursday night before coming back to play Newcastle, who should have a rocket up their arse and a point to prove! 

They then play Liverpool, if they lose them both United could easily find themselves a quarter of the way through the season and in the bottom 6.

Huge game for them on Sunday at Newcastle.

Listening to Roy Keane talk is actually fairly interesting. He's always painted as a complete dick head, but he's coming across here as someone who gave his all for the club and was pissed off with anyone who didn't have the same dedication as him. 

[Dan]

Fifty four million for Fred hahahahahahahahaha

 

This will all come out one day as some Calciopoli like scandal.

I know someon who was a psychology student when Keane was a player, and he was seeing a psychologist because he had too much money. He just comes across as arrogant to me

Talked about the offisde decision and said they should have played to the whistle, the claims of playes heaing the whistle probably weren't true and were just his players trying it on. Also said the goal was miles onside and it was rightly awarded as a goal.

Maybe not manager, but a person who they could use around the training ground, reminding players of their role and responsibilities.

Understandable and fairly sensible tbh. Players generally get given all this money and you see a lot of goes straight to their head and they think they're some show pony.

I agree he comes across as arrogant, but listening to him talking about football rn, absolutely different from how he's usually shown to be.

I know, god knows how he still breezes into the England set up and gets preference over players like Maddison and Vardy in the past. 

 

He truly has managed to buy himself himself an entire career off an exciting debut and nothing more.

did nobody else really enjoy most of that? the first 25 mins was diabolical but after that it was well funny 

 

that lindelof crossfield pass in the 93rd minute ffs hahahah

 

You're being very generous calling that a pass.

And players like Callum Wilson now. He's consistently scoring, so for me needs to be given game time, especially with Rashford going missing. 

 

It'll be interesting when Hudson-Odoi is back fully fit as to who Southgate brings on as well

Frustrating thing is Southgate will still favour him for England

A few things here, seeing a psychologist shouldn’t be a reason to bash someone, I’m sure his issues were much deeper than simply I have too much money. As someone who was privy to someone’s medical records and information, your friend should be very careful about what he says and who he says it too.

Roy Keane is clearly a very complex character, but he is a winner and demands the same commitment of those around him as he does himself. 

Agree with him or not, he is honest in his assessment of what he sees.

I would say being arrogant is the last thing you could throw at Roy Keane.
