jukel123 8,253 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 Man U match going ahead at Liverpool. I thought we might get a reprieve because of the weather. But into the lions' den we go. Newcastle are flying. Just listening to ex pros and they reckon Isak is the best forward in the Premier league. Hard to disagree. West Ham are in the doldrums. The new manager is disappointing. I've got a lot of time for Kieran McKenna, manager of Ipswich. He's got a big future in the game. For a young manager he seems to absorb pressure without problems. I hope Ipswich stay up. It would be a great achievement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It would be a great achievement. Utd are going to get gang raped at Liverpool ! In fairness, West Ham did well yesterday…..if we could finish it would have been a very different story. That said, still too many chip shop mistakes that are absolutely basic but a manager can’t do much about players with a shit first touch, who don’t want to put a foot in and who can not play a 10 yd pass !! I like that young McKenna as well, great attitude. Edited January 5 by WILF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jukel123 8,253 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 If we came away with 0-0 it would feel like the premiership title. West Ham need Bowen back pronto. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

THE STIFFMEISTER 16,078 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 What a touch for a hard battled United . if I was a betting man I would be thinking that young manager knows exactly what he’s doing with who he has now by building yo up a case file to the board saying “we can’t play Casemiro or Erickson , when we don’t , look how we play “ TAA had a mare today as well 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jukel123 8,253 Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 I remember Man U were getting hammered at half time at St Mary's I think. He ordered the team to change their shirts to a deeper colour because the players old not see each other properly. Lol Well Wilf lad, Potter the right man? Moyes is shaking his head and having a chuckle methinks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was a shit appointment from the get go but he deserved to be treated with a bit more respect than that. If you are going to part ways just sack the geezer and have done with it, dont let it come out in the press you are interviewing other people and when it does just leave the bloke hanging…..two Bob as f**k all that caper. Potter is probably a good fit for us, I hope so at least….we will see. Im not getting out my pram and going all Man City about it, but it’s a better appointment than the Spanish bloke I reckon.

I agree. Premiership experience is a huge plus for a manager and a player. Look at that clown Anthony we signed for £ 80000000. He may been special in the Dutch league but the premiership is a different animal. I think Potter will do well given time. Lucky for the Hammers he was available at the right time. There's talk of Moyes to Everton. Wouldn't surprise me. Edited Thursday at 22:39 by jukel123 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair, Everton’s forwards could not hit a cows arse with a shovel…..I don’t know what Dyce can do about that. Like our last game, we got done in but we should have scored 3 or 4 ourselves. Watching your team put 9 behind the ball and grind out 1-0 under Moyes will be about as cheerful as a day trip to Dignitas ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My son just bought me a one way ticket to Dignitas. He said it was a great place??? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
