that was a good old ding dong of a half

so, no then. Daft point to make.

was that at the start of the season when everyone was fit/available?

after no more than 1 half of a friendly, where the opposition played again 24 hours later? Player of the season material after that?

We start the season with McCarthy in goal, Stephens starting and Valery in the matchday squad. Just missing Shane Long for the full house. yep, not good really

😗

I thought Bendarek was good enough?

Who are united playing next?

What is wrong with Sadoldgit? What next, trump, Tories et Al to blame?

A 22 year old (fruit bat), who is an apprentice in a dockyard and lives in the centre of a large city, who previously had his shot gun (allegedly) confiscated, was given said gun back to his possession! Unbelievable.

Glad it is done quickly. Wish we acted like Leicester in the transfer market when we were good

The war was won, in respect that the US/UK needed to remain for another generation. Very strange victory, don't you think?

Barak Obama told the international community that the war in Afghanistan "had been won" 🤔

Also, if they are left or right footed

They claimed Virgil was/is the greatest CB ever to play in the prem, when they won the league. Remember, the hype around their players at the best of times.

Dont forget the "Liverpool premium" when it comes to praise/hype for their players

It would be tragic over 38 games. We all know it, hence why we will buy someone

hilarious. Really hilarious

😂

I am unsure any manager ever really has his own side, unless they stay for 5+ years. Even then, that is a huge ask.

it is his team, KWP, Salisu, Perraud, Livramento, Diallo, Walcott, Djenepo, Adams, Armstrong, Broja + New CB & Tella (brought into the team under him) We will have almost an entire starting line up every game brought in under Ralph. That is his team.

Trouble is, in the very few games he has played, he looked terrible on the ball. Randomly (and under little/no pressure) just gving the ball away. Then there is the few times he was totally schooled. That is not to write him off, as you say, he is very inexperienced. That is why I hope the club do not buy a livramento type for a new CB, but an Adam Armstrong type.

it is a great race to the bottom with the defence. It was disgraceful last season, and we are about to sell the best one of the lot. Hopefully we will sign someone better than at least 2 of the 3 we have left

that is a problem. Bednarek is pretty rubbish and we have no idea is Salisu is any good over a season. he was decent at times last season, but completely schooled others, in the few appearances he had

depends if said replacement is a 'starter' or one to challenge the 3 very average CBs Vestergaard leaves behind. I cannot see the club signing someone not considered good enough to start myself, but you never know
