It really is.
Ive a funny feeling about us this year.
Im happy everyone is sucking off Pep and paying no attention really to us.
I like that they keep bemoaning our defence......while we keep picking up 3 points.
Feels funny in my tum.
Yes, the media are very much obsessed with Guardiola and Mourinho, then Arsenal and Chelsea. We tend to be mentioned as an afterthought.
That situation is helpful to us.
I remember a discussion in 2005 on BBC Radio 5 Live about the last 16 of the Champions League. One of the southern journalists remarked that Liverpool were only in the last 16 "to make up the numbers."
Does it not sound strange that everytime we conceed a goal everyone thinks we have a dodgy defence but when the other big tits do the same it is totally ignored ?
Its good
We do have a dodgy defence. We haven't kept one clean sheet in the Premiership yet, and conceded yet another goal from a set-piece yesterday
Most teams in the Premiership have better defensive records than us
Interesting. It was Blind who took those yesterday. DO you think Mou risks blind as LB against Mane? I surely hope he does, he is incredible slow. SO they going to need a hell of a lot of set pieces to make up for the weak defence against teams like ours or City. I Guess they have Stoke now, and should beat them confidently, which ptobably make them believe they are better than they are.
I like our free flowing attacking style, followed up by the whole team hunting in packs to win the ball back when lost. We do take to the pitch looking to score more goals than the opposition and as such will concede but it means we're great to watch.
A fast energetic style suits our players. We need to give the opposition no time to settle, especially a team as talented as Manchester United. I've no doubt we'll press them right from the off. Stand off a team with the likes of Pogba and Ibrahimovich and we'd need to rely on our defense. I don't think we want to do that!
Shit or bust football please. We want Mourinho so dizzy he'll be lost trying to find the dressing room.

Well the bookies are catching on at least, we are second favs now and as low as 9-2 for the title
Third favs around 8-1.
If you are only getting 5/1 for that bet then you are going to wrong bookies.
Utd to win 4-1 would have been about 16/1 with most betting shops, let alone the Pogba to score part in there too. I think you should have got about 33/1 at least for United to win 4-1 and Pogba to score anytime.
You've been robbed.
@Pesam can verify, i'm sure.

Yes I saw that today.
I backed City, 9/4 before the start of the season. They are 8/15 now. Also backed Norwich at 9/1 for the Champ and they are 2/1 now.
The other two divisions i'm doing shite in however!
Yeah your odds look about right Pete, I would have thought somewhere around 33/1 at a high st. bookie. 5/1 is beyond scandalous.
Thought so.. I think RA may have backed it in running and maybe he had Pogba to score anytime in a single.
5/1 for the combined bet isn't right at all.
wasn't 4-1 the score he bet not the odds. Or have I read it wrong?
Yeah I bet on it being 4-1 and Pogba to score anytime. They were two seperate bets I think. I lost a stack on a failed acca (Everton stiched me) but my Kitty is now £120 quid after starting the season with £25. All in not so bad 🙂
Just in time for a nice little donation!!! Dont be shy, we know you got the Money!!! 😉
Ahh two seperate bets explains it, but you still should have got about 16/1 for Utd to win 4-1.
Shop around for your odds in future mate 🙂
Yeah I think I will. I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to making the odd flutter. I didn't think the odds would vary that wildly! Good to know.
I use William Hill but I might have to rethink that in light of my numptiness.

Cancelled my William Hill one and set up a Paddy Power one. Looks a nice slick website. Cheers mate 🙂

If he turns out to be Moyes or Van Gaal in terms of results and end of season trophies then we must be hoping for this to drag out for ages.
I favour the "it can't be easy for him" when discussing with Utd fans. Annoys them when they think I'm sympathising with them. I'm not of course. I know some who are apoplectic already about him. It's delicious to watch.

I had a dyed-in-the-wool Man U supporting colleague at work. When Liverpool suffered a bad defeat, he would text me saying: "It's sad to see a great club reduced to this." Nothing could be more irritating.
And he knew it too.
Hahaha. He sounds like a bastard.
I'm also enjoying suggesting that this smacks of what happened to us circa 91 in a sincere but serious voice. Then say, that must be worrying you surely?
