Man U really are awful. May it long continue…

Relegation form at the moment. Literally.

Based on last 6 games, they are gonna end up 18th... and I don't know if that squad has the balls to fight their way out of it.

They brought in a new manager who plays 3-4-3 but he doesn't have the players to play that system. . No wonder Ashworth left.

Watched the Attack on Wembley program on Netflix about the Euros final in 2021.

Pretty grim. A late kick off, a day on the lash, lots of white powder and ticketless fans hell bent on getting in regardless (post Covid so capacity had been restricted). On the day authorities were ultimately glad we lost as a win would have kicked off things again.

Rugby's lost a lot of its smugness over the round ball game over time, but you can't remotely imagine anything like that in any other sport.

Yeh it was pretty disgusting really. I hate that kind of entitled mentality we have amongst a minority of our football fraternity. Although there were thousands of idiots that day. No wonder most of the world hate our fans.

And we have Euro 2028 to look forward to.

Man Utd 2-1 Leicester: Foxes manager Van Nistelrooy rues lack of VAR in FA Cup defeat

Ruud van Nistelrooy says his Leicester side were beaten not in "Fergie time, but offside time" as Harry Maguire's controversial late winner sends Manchester United into the FA Cup fifth round.

www.bbc.co.uk

Dreadful game and proved once again why VAR is needed.

Thank you West Ham - great win on Saturday.
11 points clear and breathing a little easier after a few frustrating draws - especially the Merseyside derby. Still, 11 games to go.

Really didn't want Liverpool to win the league but its going to happen now bar a miracle. Arsenal need to sign some firepower in the summer.

I hope Liverpool win the league. Would be a good win for football compared to the horrible Arteta and Arsenal FC.
