Sure, but then again, who isnt? But it does seem like a dropped ball from Chelsea rather than a performance from Utd.

Hope we can get something against this lot at OT. Although we probably find a way to **** the bed there.

Outshot 24-3 is hilarious given what utd have spent on their squad. Even moreso when 2 of the 3 came directly from unforced defensive errors. Was a laughable performance even from them. Nice point tho.

Maybe a Maguire/Fred masterclass can do it. Not getting my hopes up thoz especially if Saka is going to miss the game. Point would be happy days tho.

They'd better hope they're over before next season then.

This seems a bit like a weird take overreacting to one bad result (i don't even think the performance was particularly bad)

City have always been a level above anybody for me because of the depth they have but if you really think chelsea are a cut below liverpool, i'd have loved to hear that take when chelsea was trashing leicester away last week instead of after a draw to united

Chelsea have 30pts of a possible 39 with 31G/5GA and are more likely to win the league than plop going by the bookmakers, pretty sure they're not "a level below at the moment" and would happily back that with a bet

I guess my point is if we play like that vs plop/city we get tonked. As much as chelsea deserved to win they didn't really look like they were ever going to throttle us. Plus you don't win leagues if you're relying on defenders to score half your goals.

I don't particularly want to have to root for plop to catch you but I guess I'd be up for a friendly wager. What are you thinking?

I guess what would make sense is for me to get a small handicap on chelsea pts vs liverpool pts for the 2nd half of the season (to cancel difference in fixtures) but I honestly think it'd be a bad bet for you and I'd not make my worst man utd fan enemy root for liverpool so don't worry about it

Looks like Ralf won't get a work permit in time so it'll be the Carrickbus vs you guys.

This was nowhere close to Chelsea's 1st choice attack, and they did the Burnley game thing where they didn't capitalize and paid for it.

Their defense is amazing and should be lauded.

United and Newcastle both have must wins this week imo. I guess a draw for United wouldn't be awful, but if they lose they could be 8 pts behind West Ham/Arsenal for 4th. That's quite a bit to overcome.

Newcastle are just gone if they lose to Norwich.

How long until Leeds fans panic?

LoL at 'when you are next in london' when the guy has made a point of noting what a trek it is to get there. Could have at least offered to fly them over for a game if he's your 'guest'

Basically harry does nothing but give a quick handshake before the game and hand over comped tickets while the guy spends probably a couple of grand getting over.

I was surprised at the price, but then its Atkinson, so porbably right if not a bit low

Loooong ass season tho *insert Spurs 1st with 9 and Arse bottom w 0 pts table*

Although as a ManU fan I would not love a 9pt disadvantage behind Arse without Europe fixture pileups

The Ballon d'Or isn't awarded by FIFA but by France Football magazine. They used to recognise it, but only for a short period from 2010-2015

FIFA have their own awards that still had an award last year that went to Lewa
