If PSR is going to nerf transfer windows so badly for the majority of clubs then there is an argument that transfer directors or whatever are a level of middle management that could be culled from football.

Why does this gif last an hour?

Just back from the hospital. My brother passed away tonight, he had a brain haemorrhage 13 years ago and had been severely disabled since. He went in with a chest infection which was common for him due to his previous brain injury (he was quadriplegic so couldn’t shift infections easily). It happened remarkable quickly but luckily I made it back from Manchester in time. I haven’t processed anything yet tbh, I’m really worried about my mam though. Since my dad died 3 years ago she has devoted herself to my brothers care and I’m worried she will be at a lost end. Sure am sick of watching my loved ones die though, that’s my dad and brother I’ve looked in the eye as the life leaves them and it’s definitely changed me as a person. Not a clue why I’m even putting this on here tbh, none of your business you bunch of cunts. At least Man Utd are shite

He literally said “can only play on the left”, incorrect

Aye that’s patently nonsense, all 5 of our midfielders/wingers are right footed and nobody bats an eyelid. Loads of pairs of centre backs are both right footed.

Would rather take a chance on Dibling from Southampton personally, Semenyo isn’t as good as he looks this season it’s a purple patch like Miggys was. I don’t think Mbeumo is the kind of player we need either, and would probably cost more than we can spend at the moment.

3rd least goals conceded and 4th most goals scored in the league. Not bad

Ruddy and Gillespie are training goalkeepers, they face shots from the outfield players in training. It reduces the wear and tear/chance of injury on your first two keepers. Most first choice keepers now aim to make 2-300 “saves” per training session with the ball, but the majority of them are with the goalkeeper coach so they can work on technique etc.

I’ve still got the boots I last wore to play, still in decent Nick but will never be worn again after the last time I tried

George Burley OG for Ipswich in 3-0 home win, first actual player was Chris Waddle

Bragging about being old and close to death, pretty bleak.

Good, unlucky

I’ve met and enjoyed a canapé and a drink with Diane Youdale. Lovely woman, even better looking in person. You can proceed to be jealous now

Grew up in boro, all my best mates are boro fans. Whatever fucks them over the better. Desperate for a rivalry with us, Sunderland, Leeds, any fucker who will take one. Nothing club to everyone except boro fans. Ask a random football fan about boro and they will shrug their shoulders. Had a spell in the 90s when the chairman bank rolled them but otherwise irrelevant and it nearly bankrupt them, again.

I don’t need your respect, you’re a gladiators enjoyer

Missus is out with her mates, dog asleep. Might you know, never watch gladiators ever in my life

Youse are mad, I play games to get away from the missus

He’s a rolls Royce of a defensive centre mid, the closest you can get to Busquets but bigger, stronger and better in the air. He’s immense

3-0, start fast get ahead and manage the game. These are shite at the back

Fucking Southgate has been knighted, big deal for Man Utd to have a Sir managing them next

Nonsense, we managed the game and saw it out. We won comfortably and didn’t need to over extend ourselves.

Managing the game pretty well imo, we will get a chance on the break. Think isak needs a rest though

We just need to weather this storm and we will get a couple more later in the half

Disagree about Arrizabalaga, think he’s a poor shot stopper. He is good with the ball at this feet though. Football opinions are like arseholes though so I could be wrong

Think we will go back and we should, he was hung out to dry at Burnley because of Kompanys kamikaze style of play. He's a very good young goalkeeper, would be ideal back up for a couple of years then take over.
