Man Utd Thread:

[nrico2006]

Thing is, we've been here before during his reign and Utd always seem to put a few wins together.  That said, even then they still haven't looked convincing.  I don't think there is a list of any outstanding candidates to be honest.  Personally, I wouldn't have a problem with the likes of Rodgers or maybe the Ajax manager.  Potter is definitely one to watch in the future, has Brighton playing some great stuff.

I'd actually love Rodgers to go and be a success, but I think the likes of Pobga and Ronaldo (most of the squad actually) are too far up their own holes to play for someone who's not a big name like him.

Rodgers had an interview before but they went with Jose instead. A mistake in hindsight.

Rodgers could do well but he isn't a proven winner.

Does Celtic count?

Only if you have Rangers in the same League! And how you got on in Europe!

That cant count in all seriousness.

I'm as likely to get the Utd gig as Rodgers FFS.....

The whole Ole out thing is a bit mad in my opinion. His limitations must be obvious to the club at this stage? Has anything spectacularly different happened in the 9/10 games this far this season? Not really, so why the current drama?

Probably because he's got probably the best squad in the world (on paper) and are struggling to beat shite teams.

De Gea (on form) one of the best in the world, same with Shaw, Maguire, Varane at the back and Lindelof and Bailly very solid back ups. Wan Bissaka ok limited very going forward but an exceptional defender. Poor enough cm's in fairness but the attacking talent is something else. Pogba and Bruno are top drawer players, Rashford and Greenwood 2 of the best youngsters around. Lingard was excellent for West Ham last year and a solid back up at United, Martial (ok when he is bad he is absolutely woeful) has shown he can be a superb striker when he wants. Ronaldo and Cavani well enough said.

Nah some United fans want you to believe he is managing some rag tag bunch and is over achieving !!

After 7 matchdays last season EPL (difference to this year in brackets):

1. Liverpool P7 Pts 16 (+1)
2. Leicester P7 Pts 15 (-7)
3. Spurs P7 Pts 14 (-2)
4. Everton P 7 Pts 13 (+1)
....
7. Chelsea P7 Pts 12 (+4)
....
10. Man City P6 Pts 11 (+3*)
....
15. Man United P6 Pts 7 (+7*)

* - one more game played this year.


People need to calm down. Brendan Rodgers....cmon for heavens sake. It could be better but there's every chance it will improve. Cavani needs to be on the pitch more.

Cunny Funt obsessed with his possession stats for years now, I think he reckons that's how games should be decided

Far from obsessed Everton made much better use of their mere 28% possession and better use of possession is generally how games are decided. Everton today earned their point with a low block tactic and scored how they probably expected to score (on the counter attack) though from a United point it was poorly defended.

Tight it wasn't Sheedy, may have been a goal or DeGea 2nd save of the match if Davies took on the shot instead of passing it to an offside Mina.

expected goals stats for the game have Utd @ 0.9 with Everton @ 1.1 so draw probably the fairest result.

Everton need Allan and Doucoure to stay fit. If they do then they'll hold their own against most of the top outfits.

Gray for 1.75M is a bargain of the Seamus Coleman variety.

With Ronaldo there, this simply won't happen
