Why people in Argentina give up their Saturday evenings to watch 0-0 draws every weekend sure beats the hell out of me!

They're laying the over 1.5 and 2.5 and partying all night after the game is over

Well the latest is that if a ManCity player delays a restart it's the opposition that get's the yellow card. So no bias there then!

Something weird happened after the Salah goal, Arsenal went out to just under 5 and someone matched at 1.6 for over 2k which was the draw odds. Fat finger or wrong hotkey maybe?

Sounds like a fat finger or a clock beater screwing up.

Wonder how long ETH can last?

Ten Hag gone at Man U, suppose the FA Cup win gave him the start of the season to push on. Man U have a massive issue with the players more than the managers IMO

I agree. I can't think of a single United player that isn't wonky in some way.

Ruud may prove me wrong but I don't think he's going to improve things. The new brooms seem no better than the old.
It's a bit staggering with their resources. But, selfishly (as an LFC fan) it's one less big hitter to deal with while they continue being underperformers.

In terms of average goals scored per match it makes pretty sad reading...

Better then Palace & Southampton though !

No goals did him in

Baffling they went for Zirkzee over someone like Gyokeres

This stupid trend of only buying young players is stupid

....until you map the respective squad cost and revenues. Then it screams total failure. It's a bit staggering. And it doesn't appear to matter who the manager is. Nobody has been successful there since Fergie. Even "The Special One" won a bit but got the boot.
The new regime around the football side appear to be no better than the Glazers.
We shall see.

It's difficult to see Man Utd attracting an ambitious manager any longer. It's starting to feel like a poisoned chalice.

Rats! beat me to it.
Not so much
"Who might replace Ten Hag as Man Utd manager?"
more who the hell wants the job. I wonder what Fergie is thinking.... has been thinking since he retired. He always looks calm but he must be fuming.
Or perhaps not. Maybe he see's the Glazers marching relentlessly towards having to sell.
I don't see the Man U situation the same as Hicks an Gillett at LFC. There is no RBS to call in debt at Man U. The Glazers are on the gravy train and they know it.
