Top 6 01 Celtic 02 Liverpool 03 Barcelona 04 Real Madrid 05 Man Utd 06 Bayern Can't recall the others but I think Ajax and one of the italian giants were up there. Not sure what the criteria was but if we are going off global fanbase, I am pretty sure that's incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to be fair no one was ever going to replace Ferguson, but they they couldn't have gone about it any worse. I've often considered "after Klopp" but I'd expect a transition that would still see us compete, and not waste millions, maintaining his winning ethos, philosophy and strategy behind the scenes. That said Chelsea is a great example of how all of what I'm saying is total <deleted>-s, manager after manager but you are always in the mix, it doesn't have a detrimental effect. The benefit of hindsight shows Ferguson only had the chairman he did so long as he was there and then he was chopped as soon as Fergie left so Glazer could bring in his own man....it was a huge mistake from a footballing perspective but gold dust for the balance sheet. The Glazers in a nutshell really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Ole-at-the-wheel's 17 league games since the PSG match have yielded just 17 points (Mourinho’s last 17 games before his dismissal brought 26), or a 38 point season, which in last season's table would have been a 5th from bottom end of season. So O-A-T-W should keep you up, just. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. On the Brazil and Parry show. Are you not pleased to be the 5th most supported club in the world?

balo Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) The problem with Ole is that he still thinks that Rashford is a gift sent from heaven. His team last night was a bunch of wannabe footballers. Maybe with an exception of McTominay and James, the players in that team would have a hard time to get into any Premier League side or even in the Championship. They are just poor. And whatever the manager is telling them, its not helping. Liverpool up next which you will lose and then you are in the relegation battle. I think this experiment is long overdue. Ole will get released from the contract within the next 2 weeks, anything else will be a suicide mission. Edited October 7, 2019 by balo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think im wrong you can say im wrong (im always saying you're wrong) but leave out words like "lying" especially WHEN YOU WRONG!

alfieconn Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) Lets go over it again: From Rick Quote Some of the posters on here are obviously in good relationships. One of the nice things about Thai girls / women is that they really get into the spirit of football. My reply to this part. Quote Really, just following their boyfriend / husband's team is getting in the spirit of football more like just following their husband like a little lapdog. Bb reply Quote Why would you comment about something you can't possibly know about? Ever met my wife Part of my reply Quote where have i mentioned your wife ? bb reply Quote The subject you chipped in on WAS ABOUT MY WIFE. So it went from "why would you comment" to "The subject you chipped in on" Anyway you still never answered the question, did your wife follow City before you met her ?

Bredbury Blue Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Alfie but you joined a discussion ON MY WIFE part way through - AS IVE SHOWN WITH THE SCREENSHOTS ABOVE - and THEN you joined in. But you seem to want to interpret that you started a discussion when you did not and then you call me the liar...unbelievable. You should also take Hackjam's advice and leave people's wifes out of it. I took no offence to Rick's comments, but you come along and offensively have ago at all thai wives/girlfriends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackjam Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Is there a worse EPL player than Fred? And that miss by Harry, total school boy stuff. Got to say, Man Utd are totally basket team, players scared to make a forward pass. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
