Sounds like Brighton have created numerous chances but just haven't quite had the bodies in the box to make them count.

Just imagine what our front five will do to them.

Final Score just said that they've been the better team and still in this.

Taylor: Even tho we've scored, still looks like we're playing for a draw This is excruciating for a Manchester United fan.

As per normal, expensive, boring and very lucky.
Bet there's no mention of how much the two squads cost!

Not a PL game but well worth a mention

Dortmund were 4-0 up at home to Shalke. It ended 4-4.

dont even get me started. awful stuff but i actually expected us to get smashed so 4-4 is a mild relief. for 25 minutes i was surprised and happy. this fucker Bosz is terrible.

DC is summarising the rags game on SSN. Saying the rags will have to park the bus for the derby because if they play like they did today against us, then we will win at a canter and hurt them badly.

Nothing new there then NB.

PS Thanks for letting me know about last night's channel 5 programme. I've recorded it to enjoy leisurely. :) :)

Jose was needed after Moyes and LvG and he has indeed steadied the ship. And for that I am grateful. But his football DNA doesn’t match Utd’s. His style of football is soul destroying and I no longer watch. Its not enjoyable. Thankfully Jose doesn’t hang around too long at clubs.

I'm sure the Dippers defender stopped the ball with his arm there. No replay as yet and no actual mention from commentary.

They've just mentioned a "battle between the number tens"

If they are referring to Coutinho and Hazard it's not going to be a battle. More a rout. With Hazard trouncing Countinho

Personally speaking Beefy, I've never been impressed by the so called attractive, attacking football that the Scum were supposed to have played under FergusScum. For my money they've mindlessly played the percentages game, in different ways and received much help from the referees, over and over again.

All in all, I've always thought it's been a media propagated myth and, with his long ball style of play, Mourinho is following in the footsteps of his predecessor(s).

I used to argue about this in the 1990s, with a guy I used to work with, when Sparky Spews was playing for them and the ball was continually being launched towards his head. He used to claim they were long passes.

Mourinho's DNA may not match the rags. But his arrogance certainly does. In spades.

Puzzles me how no mention of Mourinho's role in selling three of those players is ever mentioned.
