I'll be very disappointed if Liverpool fans aren't singing 🎵 Paul Scholes sucks his daughters toes 🎵 this afternoon
Welp, you called it Pat : https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/14 ... sCjrRy.mp4

But so did Scholesy, bang on the money : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0uHmmQ4f_8
:lol:

One thing Scholes is wrong about though is people calling him miserable; they're calling him worse than that now

The problem at United is Pogba. Zero as a team player. Only plays to his potential when he feels like it. His red card doesn't suggest 'passion' to me, it suggests "this red card will take me closer to the January window without having to lift a finger for a few weeks".
Waste of space.

Agree about Pogba but the biggest problem at Utd is Solskjaer, nobody seemed to have a clue what they were trying to do yesterday and that's down to the coaching.

Atalanta scored three and probably would have scored more if they hadn't have lost one of their best players to injury, if Ole is still in charge when City visit they'll get torn apart again and City won't take their foot off the gas like we did for the last half hour. 5-0 is a great result for Liverpool but it shouldn't be viewed as some kind of freak result.

According to the Manchester Evening News the board are considering sacking Ole so his time may be up. Other reports even before this game said that Conte would be interested in taking over so they might be contenders again soon enough. Conte would sort them out and if Pogba didn't get his finger out he'd be left on the bench or sold. The rest of the forward line would be expected to do the donkey work for Ronaldo so Rashford, Greenwood and Sancho will all be on notice.

Ronaldo looked well fed up with Ole's tactics, could really be game over : https://mobile.twitter.com/Left_Winger0 ... 3353465860

If he does get the sack in the following hours/days he deserves to get a similar statue like his pal Ronny got. If their fans aren't going to make one then I'm pretty sure ours will! :D Can't honestly think of anything more fitting than that.

I guess so about Ole. Everyone likes him and wants him to succeed and he has hauled Utd up to be a top 4 contender again.
But 5-0 v Liverpool was bad. Not just the result, but the attitude of the Utd players.
Pundits were talking about Utd's high press was their undoing. What!!! Were you watching the same game as me? Pogba's red card was not a result of a high press. We had the run of Old Trafford.
And I reckon Conte is the stand-out replacement. And that should focus the minds of the Utd players. He's a wholly more demanding and agressive person.
So, get your act together and play for your current cuddly manager or prepare for a whirlwind manager.
But perhaps he would be another unable to play the "United way".
Moyes has proved success doesn't require "a way". Just to win.

Unlucky he has to play his last few years under newbie managers like Pirlo and OGS.

Ideally United would now get a reaction against City and would beat them again :)

But I fear the meltdown will instead continue. It's honestly ridiculous how ex-United pundits like Neville and Rio etc keep covering for their mates like Ole and betraying their own club in the process. Mates United FC 🤦‍♂️

Banter aside I think Ole has done great as a caretaker manager to change the mood and bring back the attacking style of play, but now you need a top class manager with the right fit to actually compete properly. The money and the players are already there.

Well, I didn't see the game. But Man C knocked out by West Ham is a big talking point. Before Moyes (phase 2) it wouldn't have happened.

I suspect Foden can get sex anytime. Unless its with Guardiola, that might be tricky.
