A plague on both their houses, and all that, but it would be satisfying to see Yanited lose having been 2-0 up. What goes around comes around.

I want to finish 3rd, so a draw is good right?

A draw is better than a Man Utd win for us to get third. If Liverpool and Villa win, then all 3 teams would be on 61pts with 3 games to go.

That manure stat of unbeaten in 398 games at home when winning at half time is quite ridiculous.

Strange stat flashed up on MU results at OT when leading at HT. Why since May 1984?

I worry about Peter Drury’s heart. He’s blown so may loads it might be too much for him before injury time.

How monumentally shit was Amorim?

That’s a given. But how the fuck has Carrick turned this around in the manner that he has? He’s completed liberated how they approach the game. It starts in the head. They’ve spent more than enough money to acquire the talent.

Putting Fernandes back into his best position helps. Ole part 2. They are still very average. And Kobbie Mainoooo

Everybody knew their best side except Amorim. He was worse than Gerrard.

Flat back 4, two in centre mid, Bruno @10 behind Cunha, Sesko and Mbueno.

There’s no doubt he did some simple/obvious stuff tactically. You’ve still got to execute it in games and lift the club. Especially with all the background stuff with the owners/board. I’m not saying he’s the second coming of Sir Alex. OGS had a minute in the sun too. I just think it’s as simple as bringing Mainoo back or going to a back 4. But clearly it’s helped not being a bell end like Amorim.

Duh! Yes you're right they lost 2-1 to Ipswich after leading 1-0 at HT.
