I would say there are championship teams with bigger budgets than Copenhagen

Copenhagen are playing professional football in a country with roughly the same population as Ireland. Their average attendance is 27k.

The Clubs total wage bill for 2023 is: £14,778,920 per year or £284,210 per week.

Andreas Cornelius is their highest paid player at £29,000 per week.

Fair play to them. As with every team sport nothing beats a good underdog story.

Anthony boyed again. EtH soon be gone sadly 🤡

Don't think they got Gaelic fball, Hurling. Or Rubgy to deal with.

Has been a shocking start to December for Man United after their epic November and underdog wins(according to Cunny Funt)against the mighty Luton, Fulham and Everton.
Would expect them to turn up this Sunday though in what's really a Cup Final for them now against arch rivals Liverpool.

I really don't. 4-0 minimum.

Pathetic

Considering the team that was out there and what they ended up with that was a positive start, no extra games to worry about on Thursday nights too, get past Liverpool and its all down hill

[NAG1]

This is the only saving grace that they are out of Europe completely.

Another two injuries last night, squad going to be massively stretched but no Thursday night games going forward gives them the opportunity to get some rest time.

A disappointing performance but that starting team is about a poor a team that started a must win match we've ever had in the CL.

Front 6 had 1 player in Fernandes who should be starting regularly in a proper United team, 2 youngsters who should be bit part players and 3 players in Antony, McTominay & Amrabat who aren't good enough. Dalot is just woeful, does so much good work then lacks any sort of quality with a final ball and lacks awareness which results in him been dispossessed time and time again. Wan Bisaka not much better, limited going forward and he also lacks concentration. That team lacked quality,

United should have got through and taken 12 points from the 4 games against the other 2 sides but ended with 4.

Muscle injuries are out of hand, Shaw, Casemiro & Mount are all on their 2nd muscle injury of the season. That might even be Maguire's 2nd muscle injury of the season, Wan Bisaka was out with one too! The way they messed up Martinez's injury from last season is amateur hour too.

Sunday won't be pretty either, would imagine Mount, Casemiro & Diallo will be back for West Ham and not for Sunday.

What was Onana up to there?

Rooted to his line and giving up the entire right side of the goal.

Your man was probably going to score no matter what but Onana doesn't cover himself in glory there with his attempts to stop it. Doesn't even try to close him down.

Why is being out of the Europa league a good thing? Are we not trying to win trophies? What good is struggling into top 4 so we can have another calamitous champions league next year. If that's the height if it then we should just give up. That tool Ole was the king of picking crap sides in semi finals to rest players for the league and what in hell did that achieve?

Ten Hag I'm afraid is another spoofer. Played the hard man and got rid of Ronaldo but then failed to get rid of any of the other shite and worse then brought a whole load more rubbish in.

[Jeepers Creepers]

Do betting men not always bet against Europe's league teams playing at the weekend after a Thursday outing?
The fear of getting beat last night competency nullified any minimal prospect they had of scoring. Liverpool game will be another murder picture.
In fairness to ETH, no-one expected the Sancho situation to arise or Rashford going off the boil so quickly. Never mind  the injury list. Fellas under some serious pressure and with Ratcliffe rumours of a clear out surfacing. I don't envy him one bit

Ronaldo openly defied him and that  needed addressed, any self respecting manager would have done the same.  His business in the transfer window has left him wide open to criticism so I fully agree question marks arise over that.

Regarding the other muck lingering about, we'll paid long term contracts have hampered him in getting them flogged off, as they won't leave as they won't get lucrative deals elsewhere, so that issue was not of his making. 

Thursday night football is a balls of a thing, the travelling and lack of recovery, chances of picking up injuries etc.  I agreee any competition is worth playing, and given they are not competing for the league, they should have made dame sure they had something else to play for.
