      Got the Champs League in August, so need to maintain that level they're at.

      Achieving it though isn't easy but they make it look so. Most other premiership teams you can see look bit ropey and some cases just look like friendlies. They're certainly looking like the team to beat again next year.

      Since the restart City have been the best team in the premiership. Very surprised just how well their playing when you consider the last 3 months.

      Chelsea game aside.

      They were the best team against them in my opinion KK, even against 10 men.

      You expected a 4-0 defeat? You think the goals we conceded were acceptable? Whilst we had a few chances, we were lucky that it didn’t finish with them having 6 or 7.

      The defeat didn’t happen by chance, they were far better than us on the day. The manner of the defeat wasn’t good enough.

      weird that we had more possession then and almost the same number of shots on goal, as I said it was just a strange game, they were of course better than us but I wouldn't say they dominated us.

      Possession counts for nothing if you keep having to pick the ball out your own net.

      If you don’t find a 4-0 defeat a bad thing then that’s up to you. But if we had been told before the game we would lose, I don’t think anybody in their right minds would have said it would be 4-0. Losing by a goal or 2 isn’t so bad, it’s a common scoreline when losing, but losing 4-0 is unacceptable regardless of whether we had chances or not.

      So did us beating Barcelona 4-0 make them a bad team, or how about when they beat us 3-0, no, it was a night where everything clicked for one team, it happens when 2 great teams play each other. We had plenty of chances to score ourselves, it just didn't happen for us.

      My point is that a score line does not always reflect the strengths of each team or the balance of the game, for example our 4-0 against Palace was for more dominant than City's 4-0 against us.

      Top four next year I think will easily be ourselves, City, United and Chelsea.

      Us and City far above the rest, but looks like Fernandes as given United that glue to bring out the potential of their youngsters, so expect them to grab a top 4 spot relatively easily and if Chelsea’s new and potential new signings hit the ground running, I also expect that from them, and if us or/and City underperform, I reckon a sneaky shot at the title could be on the cards for them.

      I know it’s early for it, but if I was to put a sneaky fiver bet on right now, I’d go;

      Liverpool
      City
      United
      Chelsea

      It amazing what the right player can do, Bruno Fernandes is a hell of a player. The race for for Champions League spot should be fun to watch.

      Its well documented by me he should never of got the job. Always said defensively hes totally inept and that hasn't changed. De Gea & Maguire were awful and obviously to blame for the two goals conceded.  United won't get away with this against the top teams.


       Exciting to watch though. What can you say about Greenwood again, this time with his right foot. If Ole can sort out his defending who knows?? We might give you lads a game  ;D

      Yeah id agree with your assessment, the way United are playing looking like were turning a corner even though the defence still looking shady

      Wow Wolves really let themselves down today and some poor decisions from Nuno.

      Traore showing that whilst he can have some boss games, it’s far too much of a common occurrence having this type of performance; he rarely passed and kept trying to do it all on his own. Why Nuno took off Doherty and put Traore at WB to accommodate Neto made no sense at all.
      Boly was all over the place and made a poor attempt to cut out the ball on the first goal, nobody was close to Saka and Saiss could easily have got sent off with the number of fouls from him.

      Watching Citeh v Soton game, Ederson got caught out of position and chipped from 40 yards out by Adams. I feel like last two season Ederson makes errors yet never really gets called out on it, just gets jerked off about his ability on the ball .
