I'm not a United fan.
And karma still doesn't exist.
Edit: How has Valencia not been booked yet?

Referee caving to his own standards. Sending off for next to nothing, allows Valencia to go mad and nothing.
It ended up being a winning challenge but it was dangerous play.

"Ended up". It was a fair challenge and no one was hurt - that doesn't make it dangerous at all.

Spent most of the second half on my phone, just a defensive show. Actually pretty decent defending, but no chance to break.
Rashford should have taken his chance though.
50/50 on it. Of course, some will tell you it was a definite leg breaker. It looked worse than it was, but you really can't go in like that these days.
The hypocrisy on the ref was things like that aren't a booking, but Herrera? Oh yeah, def red at 35 mins in :/ How did Rojo not even get 1 yellow?

Not a United fan obviously. But man Pogba pisses me the fuck off, puts in a pathetic performance and then is laughing and joking after the game. It's a joke!

Mourinho still neutered by the Man Utd board lol.
He'll shave his head tomorrow to show how angry he is.

He's gone from one too many touches to know touches in this game. He needs a serious confidence lift but no idea where it will come from.
I disagree vehemently.

I forgot the game will be played at Wembley. Final is in the bag.
Or those who bring in "Wenger Out" signs before a match is even played.
There's no sense of perspective anymore. It bugs the fuck out of me, even if it's mostly heat of the moment stuff.

He's been anonymous for most of the season. It wasn't until we started playing Carrick and Herrera with him that he showed some glimmers of his potential. But with the pricetag looming above him, he really hasn't done it at all. He has picked up a bunch of assists for Ibra but other than that has gone missing again and again.
We're so fucked when Carrick retires though.

Protecting his player, but yeah it's iffy. First makes up for it, as those "fuck off Mourinho" chants will have cut deep. It might not be great to see him at Man Utd, but cmon, he was fired and was going to end up at some other "big" Club.
Not to mention Mou himself has never chucked Chelsea under the bus (post-leaving).

Mou whining but being sensible as the Man Utd board partially has his balls. To be fair though those remarks about the Chelsea fans are class.

Mike Oliver sure hates Manchester doesn't he?
Glad we are out as I expected, quite frankly I'd have played fringe and academy players. Jose has an ego issue that tells him to work his players to death. Pogba needed rest and he still made him do a 90 after Russia and he's going to expect him to do a 90 on Thursday too

Paul Pogba was the best player on the pitch last night, according to Mourinho.
I completely forgot he was even on the pitch. In fact, I completely forgot he even signed for Man United.

It is safe to say we have seen this before. A lot of players had issues during their time at some point, being called overrated or flop or this or big game flop. Time will tell, at least for now, let them enjoy the banter, it is only part of the game
Pogba is not a Ballon D'Or level player, he never was and he never will
Selling him for that money is the biggest robbery in recent history.
I feel like when people say this, it comes across as a knee jerk reaction of sorts. The market is a result of market forces, not necessarily player value. The season before this, he was valued around £50M by Juventus, the season after that, he was valued around £70M. Keep in mind during these periods, Neymar and Suarez joined Barca for huge sums as well so of course, Juventus would place big value on him. Then he went on to have a really good season, of course they were going to inflate his fee again. The £90M is a result of market forces, not that his football is worth that exact amount. Of course, he has potential and he is the next most marketable football player after Ronaldo, Messi, James....

Can't agree there. It's the afternoon so it's still a bit early to handle shitposting
Pogba is young, he needs to knuckle down and take a page from Cristiano's book at Old Trafford. We have the facilities and staff to help good players become great.
The issue with Pogba is his off the field attitude, and on the field, the sighing and moaning. Some of that may be immaturity, but yes, someone like Zlatan needs to knock some sense into Pogba. Issue with Zlat is as much of a leader and presence as he is, he isn't a "United player". We really lack the days of having United through and through players, who really sorted out the young players and didn't take the club for granted.

I always wondered if Mourinho had a GAF account. I always thought he'd make an excellent internet troll.
At least now we know.

Cause he went to a rival club? I mean, as I said earlier, he got sacked, and from that he was going to go to another big club. I can understand a little supporter frustration, but hold your tongue a bit for a guy who brought you many trophies. At least, you don't really need to be chanting "fuck off Mourinho" directly to the guy.
As for Judas if you mean the name, it's referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judas_Iscariot
That first one hahahahah. He mad.
Tbh watching Costa and Hazard play Liverpool prob has the same effect on me too, as funny as it is to laugh I don't really blame him
I've been a subscriber for over a year. The beta is fine, it's just a new style player since they have added a ton of channels. For Serie A, you'll likely have to use your fubo.tv credentials on beIN Connect though. Fubo.tv only supports playing beIN 1 and beIN ñ directly thought their app. beIN Connect on PC sucks since it still uses silverlight, but the mobile app supports chromecast if you want to watch on your TV. And you can't DVR games that are outside of the two main beIN channels.

Some Man Utd fans.... /s
In saying that, either us lot on in the GAF Football Topic are fairly neutered, or we're all just the rare kind of self-hating supporters who know most of our teams constantly do shite.
Even Arsenal-GAF is thoroughly self-defeated. Considering AFTV, usually Arsenal fans are a bit more explosive
I try to do some light trolling, but no one ever takes the bait Instead we all just get together in here and agree our own teams keep screwing up. Where is Chelsea-GAF? You guys are like Unicorns. I'd expect more smug posts from you lot this season.German Football GAF had a reputation before I joined, but are you all banned now? lol
Even the Barcelona/Real battle seems lacking in here. Sad times.
