    Manager Jose Mourinho

    I still remember playing Chelsea away when we were top of the league and he refused to bring Bale on to win us the game. Bale just sits on the bench as we draw 0-0. Mourinho brings on Lo Celso at 65 mins, then Lucas and Davies in the 90th minute. Doesn't even want 3 points.

    Club Come here to laugh at Nu-Castle

    He isn't betting on the number of throw ins and booting the ball out of play, otherwise he would be done for match fixing. Banning a player for betting is like banning a fan for betting. It's completely pointless.

    Management Ange Postecoglou

    The fans may have turned on Mourinho and Conte, due to playing style and poor form, but I doubt the majority would have sacked them both at the time when they actually left. Mourinho was in a Cup final and Conte was still in 4th, so it made zero sense to sack them both when we did, and Mason and...

    Management Ange Postecoglou

    The poorer form in the second half of the season isn't solely Ange's trend though. We as a club started well and tailed off with Conte and Mourinho too. We even did it with Poch that season we lost 5-1 at Newcastle and came back stronger the next season. If, for example, at best Ange finishes...

    Club Come here to laugh at Nu-Castle

    I don't laugh at the Tonali thing. I'm actually fundamentally opposed to any rule that bans any player from gambling. Not match fixing. Gambling. If the FA, gambling companies, government, and clubs all stopped advertising or stopped people putting on bets and made gambling a crime it would be a...

    Club Bayern Munich

    Surely Juve is the next destination for Zizou though. I honestly don't see the appeal of Bayern right now.

    Manager Jose Mourinho

    He excluded Pogba from training too because of Pogba smiling on Instagram when United lost. Apparently Pogba sent the post when United were winning 1-0 but by the time the WiFi at Old Trafford connected they were losing 1-2.

    Management Ange Postecoglou

    What if it is nonsense that we do worse next season though? Does that mean the earth is flat? I'm sceptical and highly critical of Ange, especially defensively, but I'm not going to assume he does worse next season. He already did better than expected.

    Competition FA Cup

    I don't care much about the FA Cup any more which is sad. I think the fact that the FA described it in terms of being an asset that produces revenue for them in their original statement shows that they do not give a fuck about football. They have made it as meaningless as the League Cup. I...

    Club Come here to laugh at Gooners

    This is all I keep thinking about when people keep saying to me that they are, "only one or two players away". Their ship has sailed already. They bottled it. Odegaard etc. will want out, especially when they realise they should be winning big trophies and signed Havertz instead of a striker.

    Yeah but his players are so thick that if he draws a heart emoji on a whiteboard it may actually work.

    Player Timo Werner

    I half-expected Red Bull to paying for a rollercoaster around the stadium as part of the deal.

    Club Come here to laugh at the Fascist, Failing Chavs

    They kind of are untouchable though. Sir Alex would ban journos from Old Trafford on the regular.

    Tactics 100% Angeball, or adapt during the game? Which are you?

    I'd argue some of our best performances under Poch were 3-4-3 even without Eriksen or Eriksen sitting deeper in the 4, due to the pace in the counter-attack with Dele and Son as wing-forwards. I honestly feel the most ruthless effective football we played was that way. End of the '17 season we...

    Club Come here to laugh at Citeh

    I've come to the conclusion, when discussing City, it is better to just say 115 and nothing else City fan: Man City won the league Me: 115

    Management Ange Postecoglou

    Most of our problems are from pissing about with it in our own third against half-decent pressing Premier League teams who only do the basics. Why does it matter if Hojberg or Bentancur start or not? They will still both be told to make a risky pass that isn't on, lose it, and they would never...

    Match Tottenham Hotspur vs The Bottling, Diving, Scummy Woolwich. Sun 28th April, 2:00pm kick-off (maybe)

    I said before the Newcastle game we needed to play more aggressively defensively and earn the right to play, even if it meant playing more first-to-the-ball defensive players in midfield or as wing forwards, however that looked. Ange and fans on here don't care about losing to Woolwich last...

    Match Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur. Sat 13th April. 12:30pm KO

    We continually make the mistake of trying to overly play out from the back against decent pressing teams like West Ham and Newcastle, without stamping our authority on the game first or outworking the opponent first in order to play. It is entirely predictable. Say what you want about Conte but...

    Player Timo Werner

    The strangest thing is, I have no doubt he could probably beat me in finishing in training, but on a match day I'd rather start.

    Match Newcastle United vs Tottenham Hotspur. Sat 13th April. 12:30pm KO

    As long as Dier and Skipp aren't starting we should be okay. I'd go with an extra defensive midfield and wingers though. Just whoever defends better and is first to the ball. Truth be told Ange will play whoever the fuck he wants and think we can play through them even with 9 men, but the...
