Nobody outside of Yorkshire knows what Hull is, so I think we’re fine.

Honestly I know there's masses of evidence that show Mourinho's third season is when it all capitulates but I figured since that usually follows winning the league, and they haven't yet achieved that, he'd maybe not blow up this year.
But everything so far suggests that's exactly what's going to happen. I can't fucking wait.
Also, we beat PSG's reserves 5-1 and for the first time in a long while we've actually got some very promising youngsters.

The lad who has just scored a cracking free kick is 22 and played 63 games in La Liga. (Yes I googled him)
Must be no fun at all being a united fan atm.

my god I wish the penalty given for Ojo's goal was given in a league game. The outcry would be brilliant.

But everything so far suggests that's exactly what's going to happen. I can't fucking wait. Also, we beat PSG's reserves 5-1 and for the first time in a long while we've actually got some very promising youngsters. Jose: "We start the game with players who are not even going to be here. This is not even 30% of my squad." Jose: "Eric Bailly was not going to play. When he saw Smalling was leaving in the warm up, he thought I don’t want another kid on the pitch." Jose: "This game gave me nothing at all." Jose: "I would like two more players. I don't think I will get two. I think I will get one. I gave a list of five. I wait to see if we get one." Jose: "Matic had surgery. Out for the start of the season." Jose: "If I was them (fans) I wouldn't spend my money to come and watch these teams." Jose on Sanchez: "We're playing here just to try + survive and have some not very ugly results. Alexis is the only attacking player we have. The poor man is trying his best with the frustration of someone who wants more. Alexis, Mata, Darmian, Eric, Pereira. Phenomenal attitude" Jose on ref: "The officials came here from the baseball federation and thought it was a baseball game and realised it was soccer."

If he was put in charge of my club I honestly reckon it'd put me off the sport
What's he bought to any club lately apart from the bare minimum. He must be public enemy #1 in that Manchester United dressing room and is probably their biggest hindrance right now

Causing him to fume this much over a pre season friendly will get me through the winter anyway.

I’m hoping Curtis Jones has a place in the squad this season. I’d hate to see him shine in pre season and then not get a look in like what seems to have happened with Woodburn. Honestly, having seen him for the U18s and U23s, he’s better than Sterling was at the same age.

Reminded myself before that Mignolet conceded 6 against Villa once for Sunderland and in searching for where I’d said it worried me when we signed him, I stumbled upon the fact that he was actually voted our forum goalkeeper of the season for 2012-13. Mongs.

Lewis Cook seems like one of those signings that I hope if we're going to make, we do it now rather than in a couple of years for £45m+
Also think if we do sign him Dembele must be off

Obviously really happy with our business, seems we have got some real quality in key positions... bugging me that we haven't improved numbers wise though. I think we'll get closer to City; and City will surely fall closer to us, but not sure we've done enough from a depth perspective to overhaul them in one window - which is obviously the aim.
From this time last season, Shaqiri has replaced Coutinho, Fabinho has replaced Can and Keita has replaced Chamberlain. Only van Dijk has been added numbers wise. Need to be lucky with injuries to key players again because we are rolling the dice big time on Sturridge and Solanke.

I know it's only pre-season but Hudson-Odoi bossed Bellerin last night. Quite weird to be excited about a youth prospect at Chelsea
