Truth is a stter at times i know,
Yes, it’s awful for us winning trophies that nobody gives two sts about and building a winning mentality. We’re massively under performing again this season but nothing a billion pounds will not mend in the PL and CL, unlike your team who’s attractive style of play is doing well in the league....................oh hang on.
Have to agree
Oh look it’s all about money again. Have you picked up the “We’ve got the most money in the bank” trophy yet?

And we’re so unattractive that we’ve only scored 7 more goals than your gung-ho all out attack, score every 20 seconds, best XI in the world ever team.
To be fair, we aren't playing any 'home' games this season they are all at a neutral venue which even Conte said will be inspirational to any opposition.

For instance, you'll fancy your chances far more this season at Wembley against us than you would going to the old WHL and that's how all of our opponents will feel. Some players know they'll never get another chance to run out onto the hallowed turf in their career.

Don't worry, I see a lot of goal congruence. You never win trophies, Maureen will never manage you. Problem solved.

Oh yes, the chance to play at Wembley. Wow, we’re so honoured, I can’t remember the last time we played there as a team, it certainly wasn’t last season in the EFL Cup, or the year before in the FA Cup twice. Equally, none of our players are England internationals who play their home games there. Yes, I can see that playing at Wembley for that one time in our players careers will be a huge bonus for us.

And such a neutral venue too, what with the gate being split 50/50 just like cup games there

You Spuds really are a starange bunch.

I can’t believe we’re going to get a chance to beat you this year, it’s only the last two years where you’ve beaten us at your place. Before that it was 2001 when you last beat us at your place.

I wonder how many rolleyes Incould put on this post rolleyes

If you read what he said, I don't think he was talking about United players, but players from Bournemouth, Brighton etc, who could be gone from the Prem in an instant and never get the chance.

But the Spuds problem is losing against the big teams, isnt it?

In any case, I imagine the small teams are more excited about playing at Old Trafford against the biggest club in the country than they are about playing at Wembley against a side that almost once nearly challenged for the PL.

You seem to struggle to understand posts so I'll spell it out for you.

I didn't say United in particular would be more up up for it - although you will - the words used were

"Inspirational to A N Y opposition"

So Swansea, Burnley and probably West Brom tomorrow etc

If you can't see how these teams would be boosted by playing at Wembley then I think I know why you support United.

Oh dear Mary, are your knickers in a twist and you have to start with the insults? Well allow me to retort

Have a look at the bit in bold in your original post below and consider that you’re on the United thread and then tell me how I’m “struggling to understand posts”

You're "struggling to understand" because, again, I used the prefix "For Instance" ie one of many instances. You conveniently didn't embolden that bit which makes it not United specific.

United will not be as enthralled as (say) Swansea at playing at Wembley but will fancy their chances more because your not at the more atmospheric and cramped WHL - but yes, there will still be an element of "we're at Wembley!" even for you lot so that won't work in Spurs favour this season.

Unless of course you think you've outgrown the place. smile

Quite. You would think such people would try to fly under the radar a bit more.

No radar to fly under I'm afraid. Good to see I've united the scousers and mancs over something though. smile

I'd put Pog next to Matic but yeah would be happy with that

Would quite like to see Zlatan in the 10 later in the game, see if that works

Happy with that line-up. I am concerned that we might be rushing Pogba back a bit, but we are nothing like as good without him.

He'll no doubt start then Jose will bring him off after 70 minutes when we're 18-0 up.
