That rain at OT better not be heading south


This was an awful game.

In Spurs' hands now


What a boring and uninspiring game. From minutes 25-75 nothing happened.

United never looked like scoring though.


by Hoagie k

It’s a good thing United are absolute trash. This Arsenal performance is putrid.

Dreadful watch, but we’ll take a W at OT. All we needed.

COYS

Ange GOAT mate


Disappointing they didn't put at least 4 past United.

Only winning 1-0 means Man City might catch Arsenal on goal difference, should they draw against Spurs. Not ideal.


Draw at spurs would set it up nicely. City needing +3 gd on final day.


Most likely a 5-0 thrashing by City. But a draw would be amazing watch on the final day for the neutrals.


Holy **** that was a miserable watching experience worst game arsenal played all year and united still we're still complete dog ****.


Not been a great day for footy, 3 **** games so far

C'mon NeverLusen!

Draw at spurs for a boat race last day is def best for the neutral and absolutely miserable for any fans involved


I somehow didn’t know this before but Antony was on 25k/week at Ajax and United felt the need to just bump him up to 200k/week on top of the ridiculous transfer fee for no reason looool


People itt thinking that Spurs prioritise finishing 5th or 4th over stopping AFC from having a decent shot at the title.


Maybe people should stop acting like Spurs have a choice

they get rolled because lads


Tbf spurs actually have an absurd / nonsensically good record vs city


by Tom Bayes k

Surely United has a 16 year old center back that could still outplay the corpse of Casemiro.

by PoseidonCubed k

Are we sure this is actually Casemiro, multiple CL winner with Madrid and not just some fat Indian full of garlic naan and samosas they found somewhere?

by SABR42 k

Just the usual United acquisition of a star player 5 years too late.

Casemiro needs to **** off to the MLS.

damn, less than 2 years ago:

Initial €60m + further €10m. A four year contract, with option of a fifth year.

by 72off k

seems like a lot for a washed casemiro, lol manu

must be on insane wages too ... you really do hate to see it

When has that ever been a relevant thing though?
Different squads, different years.

This is the quoted stat that is more irrelevant than xG. Utter BS.
Do players really think 'some players who aren't us lost 5 years ago, so we're ****ed'.

Fully aligned here.

“But we haven’t won at Old Trafford for 30 years”


spurs - city to draw and then DYCHE GOAT ruining arses title hopes with some proper brexit football on the last day of the season would be peak entertainment


Here in the Netherlands there is definitely some merit to those matchup stats, culturewise. For instance, some teams are relegation level one week yet always give it their all when Ajax shows up, and are fine with their season regardless of what happens as long as they beat Ajax at home. Others roll over and look like they're just waiting 90 minutes to swap shirts. Seems to have more to do with their fanbase than their current managers or even players.

I always appreciated "the WC host nation never gets knocked out in the group stage", that we heard a lot in 2010 😃


xyz never happens in the worst thing you hear in sports predictions.

Ya i generally think its dumb, but every year its surely they can't keep getting away with this type **** in their matches with them.

People posting "Please lose to City" apparently did not see their last 5 games. No begging necessary.

I just don't get the mindset.

Do people really think that the weight of David Howells missing a sitter in 1995 and us not winning since is playing on Son Heung-Min's mind as he approaches the Liverpool goal in front of the Kop?
