We're certainly a lot worse defensively against the so-called weaker sides, so that's some solace on my side. I'll really be bricking it if we don't have a half-time lead.

It's wonderful. Billy Bob is the man.

I'm more confident about Chelsea than I am about Palace because we're at Anfield. I don't think Chelsea's players will be able to cope, especially after a draining week in the CL.

Losing to Palace would break my heart :( Let's hope that does not happen.

Looks like shit.

I miss Nike already.

It's all about keeping it simple, which Nike always did. The elbow stripes and white sleeve continuation into the shoulder ruin the whole thing.

Now THIS is a kit:

Congrats. If you guys get a couple of good signings and bring back the improved Suso, you guys can do some damage there. You don't want to end up like Dortmund who couldn't challenge in Europe despite doing great in the league.

SEF. They say they will make a decision after Saturday's game.

Fucking Tufty. How are they not taking it down already? We all know Norwich aren't going to win. They know it and they will keep the banner up.

Can't see you winning vs Liverpool. Too quick for your defense. Sturridge is also back. I'd just focus on the CL at this point.

O ye of little gratitude! We'll just have to agree to disagree. Pepe was fucking brilliant in Conte's first season. Or at the very least the first 6 months. Sure, you could argue that he was having the season of his life. And obviously I agree that he's far from being a top player. Those six months though ... he was on fucking fire. Goals, assists, worked as hard as I've seen any player work for us. I will forever love him for that. He deserved a better end to his career. :( Fuck injuries.

No actually I agree that he was pretty awesome/clutch in Conte's first season <3 But FUCK ME ZABO, he couldn't CROSS or DRIBBLE for shit! Or even PASS properly like a fucking professional footballer for fucks sake. The only thing he had going for him was his grinta and balls, which Isla lacks.

I guess he's a bit fast too..in a straight line.


He was fucking Messi against Napoli and Lazio (twice) though :lol :lol

And I cant forget his cross(!) to Matri in San Siro of course

For me it's Adidas>Nike>>>>everything else

The three stripes simply is a fucking amazing design. Timeless look that fits so well, it's crazy.

Look at these BVB kits from the 80s, 10/10 would want again:

Too bad that Adidas has both Bayern and Schlacke, simply won't get them to make our kits in the next 10-15 years for sure :(

Ogden piece gives me a bit of faith.

Foolish to say that he could read anything into Wooders' demeanour, though.

Carrick was wank. If you were Fletcher's parents, you'd ask the coach to move him into another team.

Playing Tomb Raider and this line of dialogue crops up:

"You committed seppuku"

I'm in fucking floods of tears. The way it's pronounced. How it came out of nowhere.

That cutscene made me realize how terrible I had been pronouncing it. Well I chose to believe their way of saying it, which I probably shouldn't considering they say Laura instead of Lara.

Not long now...

When asked after this defeat whether the board recognise his insistence that things will get better on his watch, Moyes shrugged his shoulders and smiled, but it was a nervous, uncomfortable smile.

For all his good work behind the scenes in rebuilding scouting networks and player analysis, that kind of progress will count for nothing on the Stretford End.

It is all about success and trophies and, as United’s team bus drove past Stanley Park on its way towards the M62, the sight of Anfield on the horizon preparing for a title party, will have darkened the mood even more.
