I know it's only Cardiff but it really does shine a light on how bad Mourinho was. He would never have allowed three or four players to stream forward on the counter like that.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 22 December 2018 18:13 (five years ago) link
yup. It's not all going to be plain sailing but the difference in application and energy is blindingly obvious

They still look shite at the back too
Townsend for gots BTW the lad is incapable of scoring non-crackers

Utd's third goal was better :)

When you punt it hopefully from 30 yards 183 times per match then the occasional cracker is bound to happen

Football's Devon Malcolm imo, todays goal the equivalent of that 9 wicket demolition of South Africa at the Oval.

first time we've scored five since Fergie's last game

Chances of your lot giving us a massive lol on Boxing Day calzino?

Townsend absolutely blitzed one off the bar at Anfield at the start of the season when Keita gave the ball away — I think Liverpool scored straight after it. He's always been a cut-in-and-whack-it kind of player.
That volley is an open and shut case for Goal of the Season. I literally can't think of any context-free strike being better. If he was on the half-way line that would still have gone in, that's how sweetly it was struck.

Boxing Day 1977 all over again. At least I still have Xmas to look forward to.
― Michael Jones, Sunday, 23 December 2018 17:52 (five years ago) link
that was not a four goal game, bit of luck on small pushes and marginal offsides made a difference
that said, our counter is a devastating thing these days
lloris out

Enjoyed today a lot but it was extremely obvious that there wasn't a defensive midfielder anywhere on the pitch.

taking off goat for lucas at 6-2 was brilliant

this will too grim to take, I'm going out for a walk instead. Good luck to Billing trying to do Hogg and Mooy's job and the useless Belgium lump upfront who looks about as fit as me.

from the wireless it sounds like the usual story for us, lots of bad luck and bad quality in the final 3rd letting down an otherwise credible performance.
― calzino, Wednesday, 26 December 2018 16:48 (five years ago) link
United dominated, to be honest, but it was only 1-0 for a long time and you had a few chances without taking them

was that from a Depoitre effort? He does add an extra 10% to most opposition keepers by being Depoitre you know?
