The Manchester United Thread

[zzeezzy]

Yeah United should be beating Hull but they've won both their games so far so hopefully Jose and the team don't underestimate then and then we lose 1-0 or something

Be very surprised if Mourinho allows complacency, but Hull are doing well and have a manager in Mike Phelan who knows United as good as anyone, great man manager and tactically pretty good too.

Exactly. But it consistently keeps happening.

Meh, lighten up, it would be the same if United had lost to Southampton. The cavalry charge would begin, lead by myself. (H)

Has there really been anything worth moderating/deleting lately? Far as I can see it has all been banter and genuine discussion regarding football.

Exactly. Don't think anything has been out of order or over the top. Been fun and harmless and mainly discussion based.

Waiting for the first meltdown Zzeezzy style got to admit I'm shocked Phelan has not been given the job yet. Was always very well thought of at Utd. Especially in the defensive side of training.

What consistently keeps happening?
Banter and genuine discussion regarding football?

What else are we here for?

Wasn't even bait. I simply don't want us thinking those games are acceptable. Doesn't mean Liverpool are mediocre, but it's about maintaining the standards we want for a title challenge. If people are going to slip up away to Hull and Burnley, then these are the games we win to get an advantage. Simple as that

Hull away next. They've won 2 from 2, but unlike Liverpool, I don't want to see any excuses about losing this game. We have city after this and we should be going in 9 from 9, 7 bare minimum, though that would still be somewhat disappointing.

Let's see if Uncle Mick has learnt from Brucey about always guaranteeing us 6 points a season.

What isn't a surprise is no posts have been deleted in the very selective moderation game of late.

We don't mind light hearted jibes/ banter. Call it what you will. But that doesn't roll in here the other way often. I know from talking to different posters it's making it a very uncomfortable place to be for them as to what's deemed 'acceptable' and what's not.

You mean Tezzz, who has been a colossal ******* for longer than you've been on this site. Lucky not to have been banned years ago. **** banter can fly both ways. What i won't have is the same people getting tizzy in one thread and then strolling into another.

I would love it to see Mky get a start in Rooney place. That cameo against Saints gave me major wood. Especially after seeing Pogba gliding past players, driving forward and getting on the end of attacks. Can't wait for this team to completely click and everyone 100% on it

I wasn't thinking about him at all as happens. But as you've mentioned him, what's happened there? Or is that between he and whomever in which case I understand and forget I asked.

My patience with him is long, but not infinite. Hoping when he comes back from his vacation he understands that you . This forum is a lot more lax than SI but it doesn't mean people won't be removed

I think he will against Hull at the weekend but think it will be for Mata. Would have been perfect to play him the last match but the press would have been all over Mourinho for dropping Mata the week after he scored and played well. All the rumours of him not trusting him would have surfaced again. Id drop Mata all together for the next match and stick Lingard on the bench to add a bit of pace if needed.

You guys need some relaxation method, like eating a lot of chocolate or excessive masturbation. All of you "banter" in other team's threads, but when someone does the same thing in your team's thread, bantering suddenly becomes unacceptable disgusting behaviour designed to stir up drama.

I, on the other hand, having no team, can be an ultimate arbiter of what's just and fair.

Thank god, if we get him out and Fonte in it will be good business. But even if just get Jones out I'll be satisfied.

The rumours are media based nonsense. Basically started from nothing tbh. Started both prem games now.

I just troll everyone and know my team is **** so its win win but seriously people don't realise how good we have it on base, I mean other sites hand out straight bans for things like questioning moderator actions on the forum etc.
