Post Match Man United (A) - Sunday 1st September

[dee]

Absolutely astoundingly bad United performance. Fucking awesome performance from us

Gravenberch stand out first half, Mac A bossed the second

Two brilliant assists and a goal from Mo. Two sharp finishes from Diaz and Trent unlucky not to be on the score sheet too

 

[mark1975]

As comfortable an afternoon at OT as we've had in a while, classy from Slot, nice from Trent, Salah looks every bit the player he was. We defended in numbers, controlled, and know how to see out games. Brilliant stuff, and dare I say it.. very City like.

 

[tombrown]

Did I hear those cunts tragedy chanting in the first half?

 

[RobbySwanson]

Lovely stuff, Diaz, Salah, Gravy and Ibou all boss ... Dom seemed to be on the OT payroll at times.

Does anyone else think Slot may be unlocking a bit more in terms of Diaz's ability? I'm all up for him being shite and still scoring goals.

Well done also to Grandad over the hill Mo Salah.

[Tinto]

It seemed everyone was going on how Arsenal beating Villa was a some kind of statement win.

Well, that was ours then. The games against them last season were so painful

 

[Frogfish]

Yeah we look a lot more City-like in our effectiveness. Defence too - at OT we only gave away 2 good chances otherwise they never looked like scoring.
Got to give Slot a lot of credit for how he's tactically transformed this team.

First and second half they were

Mo just said this is his last season at the club!

 

[binomial]

Too easy.

3 points, clean sheet. No injuries and we didn't even have to get out of 2nd gear.

 

[Fabio]

3 clean sheets on the bounce, whilst winning. This is utopia

 

[Shadey]

Mo just said it’s his last year at the club.

 

[Fabio]

Mo just said this is his last season at the club!

Ahhh don't be clickbait

 

[Tinto]

Mo just said this is his last season at the club!

He did and that he just wanted to enjoy it

 

[Fabio]

He said that but that's because his contract is up.

 

[dee]

Mo just said it’s his last year at the club.

Quiffer

 

[Fabio]

I'm sure if we offered him an appropriate contract he'd take it

 

[Markeh]

hmmm that very much sounded like he’s decided this is his last season

 

[Woland]

Yeah but he said 'as you all know this is my last season at the club'

Not 'I'm looking for a new contract'

It was unambiguous

 

[Fabio]

Says the clubs not talked to him about contracts yet

 

[dee]

He just said NO-ONE HAS SPOKEN TO ME FROM THE CLUB

What! What? WHAT!?

 

[binomial]

Roy getting in the way of Studge and Mo embracing like what the fuck am I meant to do here.

 

[Fabio]

He just said NO-ONE HAS SPOKEN TO ME FROM THE CLUB

What! What? WHAT!?

You think chiesa deal happened overnight? Probably been working on it for 3 years.

Now it's contract time

 

[Shadey]

hmmm that very much sounded like he’s decided this is his last season

Free to speak to clubs in January.

 

[KopRed]

Keane looks about 60.

 

[dee]

Just seen Jota’s orchestration of the first goal.

Smart

 

[Markeh]

i reckon his agent has told liverpool he’s done, that’s why there are no offers

 

[mark1975]

Yeah we look a lot more City-like in our effectiveness. Defence too - at OT we only gave away 2 good chances otherwise they never looked like scoring.

Mad, 3 shots on target each. Clinical.

 

[dee]

Slott explaining how he planned the victory. Quite satisfying

 

[rubans]

There was a piece by Jonathon Wilson suggesting the same for Trent today. If it is true then a conscious decision to maybe wait and see or just let the contracts wind down to save money on the balance sheet as they are probably in the top 5 earners currently.
