  1. Worth noting that it was 2-0 until the 89th minute.

    Not sure a footballer has ever confused me as much as Oliver Burke, fair play to him for somehow managing to carve out a strange yet pretty amazing career for himself. 

  2. Have heard a few stories regarding him being out on the piss a few times - including in the Blythswood the night before the Norwich game. A bizarre way to approach a massive career move and he'll need to screw the nut pronto, i can't see Ange giving players too many chances when it comes to stuff like this.

    A big part of the problem is that he’s been left with the same core group of players who have been utterly shite for the past few seasons. 

    If Man Utd have any hopes of competing they need a complete clear out and a manager with a blank cheque. 

    For sure aye.  Was reading the other week about some of the the players both Mourinho and Ole wanted to bring in but weren't allowed. Loads of them have now went on to become good players for other top clubs. I have no doubt the same will be happening here - but it was Ten Haag himself who wanted to bring Arnautovic in, and him who has signed and played a 5ft 9 centre half in a league where physicality is still important.

    His use of Eriksen as a DM, as well as his insistence on making shite players play out from the back is worth questioning too - but that goes back to your point about him only having them to pick from.  Think regardless of his own ability, the daft hipster foreign coach not knowing our league narrative will take hold pretty quickly which will only end one way.

  4. Have to say I do enjoy a good old fashioned Welcome to the Barclays™️ whenever the latest continental gaffer turns up and gets pummelled.

    ETH might well be a great coach but you can see how this is going to go already. He’ll be a joke figure soon enough and will end up hounded out. Hasn’t helped himself with the Arnautovic stuff mind.

    Any idea what happened to that club? Seem to have had a shocker over the last decade. Season 2010/11 they were averaging over 20k in La Liga.

    Our game against Spain in 2011 was at their ground. A decent wee stadium, although clearly hadn't been touched since the 1982 World Cup.

    The cost benefit analysis of AFC telling the officials that they'll just wait in the changing room until the nonsense is finished with thank you, and the ensuing tsunami of sellik mewling about disrespect versus what happened is very finely poised. 

    St Johnstone waited in the dressing room the last time we unfurled the flag in 2019. No one was even remotely arsed.
