I think this counter attack or dominating the ball debate is a little distracting.

Arsenal are now a good bit down the track of their system of play and have backed that system in the market bringing in the exact players Arteta requests, while he has spent money I dont think ETH is getting the targets that would be top of the lists. So it's a bit catch 22.

Full out with first 11 they could match most of the top six on their day, but thing that would worry me more is the mentality of lack of it in the tough moments in games. Doesnt seem to be a steely edge to them that teams of the past had, this Sancho carry on it just another example of the type of character that they have at the club.

Antony was Ten Haags man and nearly 100 million wasted on him. Most players brought in played in Dutch league so he's definitely getting his targets.

The problem remains though that Utd play counter attack. Don't look to dominate a game.

How much is Ferguson worth in todays market?

£100m he's better than that Danish fraud United signed - could be £120m by the end of the season and especially with how hard it is to buy from Brighton

I actually think could be close to 150.

Maybe recommended before but The Founder is on Netflix. A brilliant movie based on creation of McDonald's.

It's hard to know how he'll do but first impressions are good as he's put some impressive team together.

I see one of Healy Raes saying drugs maybe a factor too. Can't say I disagree.

Looks like Raymond Galligan Cavan manager. Stephen O Neill part of backroom team.

I thought Havertz was ok. He links up play well. Rice was immense. Two yellows for Tomi a joke.

If people think that Donegal team that beat Mayo in final and Dublin was defensive well holy god.

Looks like Caicedo doesn't want to go to Liverpool.

Raya a strange signing?

I enjoyed Life Begins in Leitrim.

Why aren't United playing in the Charity Shield today? I always thought it was the League winners vs the Cup winners and seeing as United were runners up in the Cup I assumed it would be them rather than Arsenal would play in it.

Always when team does double league runners up play in it.

Jesus it's hard to be happy for them if they can't be happy for themselves. Them interviews. Holy god.

In fairness Mannion and McCafferey were understandably uncomfortable when interviewed. Both have taken sabbaticals, and you could see the awkwardness of Mannion receiving MOTM award. Cluxton, was Cluxton. He hates the interview BS stuff. I like him more for that reason.

The questions to Fitzgibbon and McCarthy asking them to talk up each other where a hard listen also.

To be fair all also seemed a little tipsy and were trying to be extra careful because of this.

The two hard years crap too. Like seriously.
