"Keeper has to catch that".
Does he? No way that was intentional?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Water breaks are such a crap idea. You can tell someone thought they were being smart thinking that given there is football in the Summer for the first time we should introduce water breaks. Just get on with it
Pretty impressed by Fabianksi's dealing with that backpass. Can't imagine keepers train much chest control.
This game has only been about 90% as dire as I expected tbf.

Bowen looks a tidy player
Please lord, bless us with another West Ham relegation.
We should have got him instead of James tbh
I'd say other than City, nobody has looked particularly great since football came back.
Yeah, ive been impressed.
I beg to differ, Pogba FC has.
Thats what's needed to win a Premier League-Champions League Double these days, its as simple as that.
2 in fact, since Kompany was never replaced & Otamendi is simply not good enough to play at this level. Hence why they have (potentially) lost the League to a side that still has Lovern on their books.
Aguero is likely to leave after next season so even if Jesus stays, they need another Striker.
Kompany, Otamendi, Fernandinho, D.Silva & (eventually) Aguero all need to be replaced. Likewise the injury record of Mendy means that City requires another LB while another winger is needed to enable B.Silva to move full time into Midfield. Thats why 7 are needed and in turn that is why Sane should not leave (1), because him leaving would require another Winger to be signed.
(1) If I was handling the Sane siutation, I would keep him for next season and give him more game time during said season (made easier by the fact B.Silva would no longer be playing on the Wing next season) while persuading him to sign a new deal. If he stil wants to go to a club that puts Canadian Teenagers at LB, then he can go so long as Bayern make a decent offer (£100+ Million) after next season.
The ultimate point being that Sane either goes after next season for a high price, or stays beyond it.
City would not be free of FFP due to a potential CL Ban, but rather because FFP itself has been suspended due to COVID-19 (1). Thus CL Ban or no CL ban (2), FFP would not apply to Man City next season, or any other club for that matter...

(2) Although lets be real; even if the CAS is willing to support an idiotic policy such as FFP, there is nothing stopping the club from taking UEFA to the European Courts over its monopoly on European Club Football (and its abuse of it via FFP).
You can see the players are struggling though. It's like 27 degrees in London and I'm struggling just sitting in my bed
Spurs will probably nick this with some individual bit of magic.
7 points behind. Their GD is +16 better than ours, don't think we'll chip that away in 8 games, but yeah, them playing Chelsea, Spurs and Sheffield is massive for us. Hope it doesn't come down to the last game of the season though.
Spurs been really sloppy in possession
This'll be another 0-0 won't it
Can't be bothered reading the rest of the post but this sounds like you're saying Davies isn't good? He's class.
His contract expires after next season, they might as well give those 100 mil to me.
Bowen, whilst impressive for Hull, has shown nothing to suggest we should have done that. That being said, I do think on to be a more all rounded player than James. Probably already is. However, whilst quite limited, James still holds the most assists for any United player this season. All in all, I think he's done well considering its his first season.
Game over.
Good finish by Son
There it is then
I dont know how much mourihno's tactics have to do with this but Kane looks like he is regressing. Spurs best players are Son and lucas moura.
I jinxed it because son just scored.
OFFFSSSIIIDDEEE!!!!!!

That’s offside
Offside?
He’s offside
Flippin 'eck Son
No VAR?
Offy woffy
I was just going to say feck it and go to bed as well.
Alphonso Davies is a good player (who has done a lot better than I personally expected) that has the potential to a great player. But lets be real, he is better as a LW than as a LB and the only reason why he had to play as a LB was because they didn't properly replace Matt Hummels (1). So if I was Sane, why would I join a club that clearly has very little ambitions when it comes to the transfer market (as shown by the fact that they have also allowed Werner to go to Chelsea)? Something that does not bode well when it comes to winning CLs...
(1) Yes I know they got Lucas Hernandez at the start of this season, but having him & Sule get injured (and allowing Hummels to leave) meant that Alaba had to move into CB and Davis had to move into LB.
Almost jinxed it. Feck right off.
Son is such a good player though.
I'd love him to come to Utd.

It’s so stupid really
Miles off.
Half time cant come quick enough for West Ham now. Spurs look like they're going to score.
Spurs should win this 3/4-0. West Ham are absolutely garbage.
Son - terrific player
