Sterling and Henderson ran themselves ragged, everyone else was awful.

Pretty sure we need to replace Gerrard before the end of this season.

Just play Can more.

Lovren was fucking boss.

 

[Mastadon]

First match was bound to be a bit ropey, but some positives there. Manquillo was good, and Moreno should play next week.

 

[Meier]

Nice job by LFC at keeping the ball those last few minutes to kill it. I only watched the final 10 or so minutes including stoppage and it seemed like the refs weren't calling any fouls. Was it pretty chippy the whole match? Obviously some bad blood between those teams -- well, at least from Soton's perspective.

 

[Labadal]

Embarassing play.
Embarrasing atmosphere.
Ref missed Hendos backpass to Mig.

Had Southampton played any team but us, I would have felt sorry for them.

The good thing? We lost this game this year.

Get fucking in. My heart, oooff.

 

[PowderedToast]

no reason why allen shouldn't have started, he offers so much more than lucas. hope that little experiment is over now. johnson the same, he's a detriment to the defence and the attack breaks up when he's involved.

 

[L1NETT]

Good sign when you play badly and still win

I want the mugs who said Saints could be relegated to have a written letter of apology on my desk by monday

ta

Johnson needs to be shipped off to the MLS. Nowhere near good enough.

 

[Blablurn]

Liverpool fans complaining about a cheap win lol. Manchster supporters would die for one.

 

[GorillaJu]

Good, nervy win. Important 3 points especially since we took 0 in this fixture last year.

 

[Yen]

Poor, poor performance.

 

[H1PSTER]

Well this isn't funny now...

 

[Yurt]

Liverpool would have won the league with Henderson

I'm fucking serious. What a specimen

 

[doicare]

And yet another game where the difference between winning or not just comes down to dumb luck, first Arsenal and now Liverpool while United continue to get no luck at all.

 

[Hixx]

Sucks, game would be so much different if Soton had taken their chances

Are you Alan Shearer?

 

[Zabojnik]

Inter. I have Materazzi's picture in my room.

Spoiler

I root for Liverpool in BPL

Well, as long as we're both faithful to Cedevita, I guess.

 

[severin]

Lucas and Gerrard in the same 11 doesn't work. Don't know what Rodgers was thinking today, he got very lucky.

 

[GQman2121]

That ended up being a really fun, well contest match. LFC fortunate to get out with max points.

Good signs from Saints though. They'll be fine this year if this is how Koeman is going to have them prepared.

 

[fuenf]

Liverpool fans complaining about a cheap win lol. Manchster supporters would die for one.

they learned from the best

 

[Splatt]

I see noone praised Skrtel.

He was everywhere. Stopped every Soton attack he could.

 

[L1NETT]

Well this isn't funny now...

hahahahahahaahah

That is funny

 

[Blablurn]

Müller in good shape already

 

[Coldnoodle]

Onwards!

 

[Garjon]

i'd rather play a youth team member or one of our CBS at that position than let that liability on the pitch

Yes, I'm not even sure Tadic was that good or if it was just the effect of playing against Johnson.

Also I take credit for that Long miss near the end.

Shane Long always scores against us. And by always, I mean a couple of times in recent history.

 

[Splatt]

Well, as long as we're both faithful to Cedevita, I guess.

I drank some Cedevita yesterday.

Mmm, yes :3

 

[ShogunDarius]

I hope Moreno will be avaliable next time, drop Johnson and that will help the defence a lot. Dropping Lucas too, a DM that did so poorly today :/.

 

[Freewheelin']

Are you Alan Shearer?

hes as old as Shearer

 

[PowderedToast]

I see noone praised Skrtel.

He was everywhere. Stopped every Soton attack he could.

yeah he was great. he seems a lot more comfortable as a no.2 under someone more authoritative, lovren has transformed the whole mentality of our backline. he's a leader.

 

[pulga]

And yet another game where the difference between winning or not just comes down to dumb luck, first Arsenal and now Liverpool while United continue to get no luck at all.

What do United need to get more luck dear doicare

 

[GorillaJu]

Lovren was fucking great today I thought.

 

[Walshy]

Lucas and Johnson really need to be sold.

Johnson is on £110,000 p/w. Has been our worst player for about two seasons and offers nothing going forward, a shambles defensively, and along with Skrtel, is prone to the majority of our individual errors. I'd rather have Cissokho there.

He is our third choice right-back and fourth choice left-back, just fucking terminate his contract.

Lucas hasn't been the same since his injury.

 

[TrueBlue]

Those are the wins that can prove decisive come the end of the season.

Arsenal and Liverpool showing the clank already. Wonder if City and Chelsea will follow suit.

 

[Blablurn]

Müller! 2:0

 

[Mr Cola]

I think Newcastle will beat City, perhaps even 2-0

 

[Yurt]

Django and Sterling together in a post match interview

Swoooon

 

[Garjon]

I hope Moreno will be avaliable next time, drop Johnson and that will help the defence a lot. Dropping Lucas too, a DM that did so poorly today :/.

I'm a little bit surprised Allen didn't start, he's been better than Lucas for a while now.

And yes the atmosphere today was embarrassing, though the fans didn't exactly have a lot of shout about, very nervy from everyone today.

 

[Timbuktu]

Hmm... Maybe switch over to cricket, England might wrap it up before City plays.

 

[El Topo]

Okay, this is going rather smoothly now.

 

[Scum]

Liverpool would have won the league with Henderson

I'm fucking serious. What a specimen

What a stupid red card that was.

 

[fuenf]

Bernat looking good, Götze playing awesome, Lewandowski really does look like the perfect striker for Pep's system... wtf is going, I'm beginning to get hyped for the season

 

[Yurt]

What do United need to get more luck dear doicare

You daft clitoris

 

[GorillaJu]

My FPL target is 60 points per week... with Hazard and Costa still to play and Sterling (and possibly Henderson's) bonus points still to come, I feel pretty good about hitting that.

 

[L1NETT]

What do United need to get more luck dear doicare

Every player has to be given a four leaf clover and stick it to their kit

Every player is numbered 8

They must carry a rabbit's foot and horseshoes onto the pitch before the game.

How else can United win football matches

It's about LUCK not tactics/players/tempo/desire/ability/chemistry/leadership

LUCK

 

[Labadal]

Raheem saying we were lucky. But also says the win is what matters.

Sturridge tells the interviewer he has to step up. Results matter.

Fuck MotD. We get everything immediately after the game.

 

[H1PSTER]

hahahahahahaahah

That is funny

If he scored two I would have just quit all together for this year.

 

[Blablurn]

Bernat looking good, Götze playing awesome, Lewandowski really does look like the perfect striker for Pep's system... wtf is going, I'm beginning to get hyped for the season

Now we just need Benatia. Because reasons.

 

[Arnie]

We jibbed it just like Arsenal and Spurs, so I won't have any funny bollocks from them.

These first matches are difficult, players aren't fully fit, teams haven't properly gelled.

Either way we have that Battleship mentality and we fly on to City three points to the good. I said I wanted six points out of the opening three so this is a great start.

 

[Yen]

Agree on the Lucas and Johnson shouts. Manquillo seems like a solid shout, and Hendo/Can/Allen/Coutz are all vastly superior to Lucas. Yet I fear Rodgers will keep both around because they both have CL experience.

 

[Mastadon]

My FPL target is 60 points per week... with Hazard and Costa still to play and Sterling (and possibly Henderson's) bonus points still to come, I feel pretty good about hitting that.

I'm on 48pts with Costa, Fabregas and Premier Ass to play. I had Studge as captain, should have gone with Sterling.

 

[bud]

koeman's english.

i'm dying.

 

[Blablurn]

Damnit Lewy. Wow.
