Don’t think United would want to sell him to anyone that could rival them this season.

Number 6 Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 West Ham are a very good side. Enjoyable to watch too. Be interesting to see the impact of Europa games on their squad, but their best 11 is really very good.
st albans fox Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 btw, I didn’t think it was a pen at the time but I’m glad it wasn’t overturned because there is some doubt and we now go with the on field call. Hopefully this means that only howlers (in both directions) will be subject to var reviews …

David Hankey Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 Another long hard season for the Magpies and quite possibly relegation fodder after this result. Be nice to see a "big" club go down.
Corky Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 The whole Souness/ Pogba thing is really dull. Souness is bad enough for seemingly playing up to it and the constant remarks every time Pogba does something well about Souness complaining about him on Twitter are equally as tedious.

They wouldn’t risk an injury - what if Man City do go to £140m ? Reckon Spurs was always going to sell just didn’t want him to line up against them in both games this season 1

Fizo Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 If we want to get a good result at WestHam, we can't have passengers. They seem to relish physical duels. 2
ARM1968 Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 Going to be mighty tough against West Ham. Good side. We will have to be on it.

Be nice to see a "big" club go down. Did you watch the game? They actually looked quite decent. West ham are a quality team and will do this to a lot of sides. (They did it to us twice last season) Edited 15 August 2021 by Lambert09 3
Tuna Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 Tone deaf sky host boasting about how the Man City squad cost nearly a billion pounds.

Deeg67 Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 Only one match away from no draws in the opening weekend. When was the last time that happened, I wonder?

Last season had 8 matches on the opening weekend- all 8 had a result either way. The two games that were moved to later in the season both had victors so technically all the opening matches last season didn't include a draw.

But why react if it’s pointless The VAR should be pointing out that there wasn’t actually any body contact between the players and the only contact was with the ball 2
Bert Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 The bullshit managers have to come out with when their player is close to leaving is painful.

Why do they all have to lie. Why not be open and honest? What difference does it make if,say, Rodgers say we are looking for a winger and are currently in discussions with x club over y player. I think that the footballing network is such that most clubs know what others are up to

I think that the footballing network is such that most clubs know what others are up to I think it’s different with transfers in that sense when it comes to discussions you don’t want clubs hijacking moves. But in this instance when the only destination is going to be Man City and it’s so obvious is annoying. Is he the only England player from the euros that hasn’t featured in a squad this weekend?
