We were ****ed for the league as soon as we didn't sign a cb and now lost clyne for half the season. Not to mention mignolet is still our keeper. I can see us making a deep run in the cl though.

Define, deep run?

Martial is a 'starter' for them as well or at least should be in the same way miki was last year. Still funny mourinho benching him for the opening quarter.

Agree about Martial. Everton score line flattered us others haven’t and we should have beaten stoke and no one would have complained.

I’ll back us top 2, how much you wanting to lay?

Hot?

They are probably at expectation for the teams they have played, maybe even slightly under, and have a points total that I would "expect" at least Spurs and Chelsea to achieve, who knows with the RNG that is Arse and Pool.

Everton have basically exactly what you'd expect points wise maybe just not GD wise.

United look good to challenge Chelsea and City for the title. City clear favourites as far as I can tell, just have the strongest squad pure and simple. Definitely big chance of top two for United as it seems like a 3 horse race at the moment unless Spurs find some form. Others seem to have too many weaknesses but guys Leicester won the ****ing league so what do we know. Other than being pipped by Chelsea not sure why anyone would be confident of United not finishing top 2.

Same problem here. Maybe they banned Americans. Probably Brexit related.

Only sky offer odds for semi, i'll lay that if you'd like.

4/1, I'll lay for £500 so your £100.

Split the difference and do 1.8? Not much of a market at all.

I'll back that at £250.

I'd like to escrow.

I was standing right behind the fellas that were starting that particular chant lol. Figured it would make the news. Watching United while trying to keep up to date with the All Ireland Final. They really need to ditch Heineken in there. Up there with Coors as the worst beer out there.

I didn't know that Coors still existed. I thought it died about 20 years ago.

I'm just surprised that they sell that piss in other parts of the country. They pushed it very hard with advertising in the 90's (I think) but then it disappeared.

Are people still drinking Hoffmeister as well? I saw some Skol in Tesco the other day.
