United should just rush Paulp Ogba back and tell him not to run.
Whatever just don't diss Hull ok.
Fuck ME. What. A. Goal.
Dzeko
Hilarious goal for Rashford.
Rashford
The 'keeper pulling a stupid face after made it.
Chelsea
HAHAHAHHA. Fucking take that you Chelsea cunts.
Kolarov and Dzeko shiteing on them lol.
Keepers a bit Sunday league. I get the rationale from Rui Vitoria to give youth a chance but they're not going to win anything this year with two kids rotating goalkeeper duties.
Getting donned by the Man City 'rejects' in Kolarov and Dzeko.
Conte will be a goner.
Why don't they play Cesar? Is he not good anymore?
I think he's trying to rebuild so giving kids a chance. Hoping he gets another Ederson. César looks a bit of a pie these days as well.
"If you're a football purist, this game wasn't for you"
Please explain this utterly ridiculous statement? @Reg?
That was painful.

Just watching the highlights from last night. Can someone tell me exactly what Pedro was doing in this "wall"....
So good.
Speaking of keepers, Thibaut Courtois is one of the most overrated ones in the world.
Elaborate? I always found him quite good and solid, one of the best really.
He's a tremendous shot stopper, but his distribution is woeful and his decision-making at times is pretty bad (he's good for at least 1 red card a season and about 3 penalties conceded). He's a good keeper but nowhere near best in the world material, as people tout him for.
Is he that highly rated? He’s good and should be recognised as such, but I’ve not heard him being particularly lauded.
For me Manuel Neuer and/or De Gea is the best in the world. De Gea has sort of gotten close enough in skill and consistency I think that they are almost equal. Neuer if I have to pick one.
After that, I'm not so sure.
I hold Courtois over Lloris. Cech is still around up there, and you can never really exclude Buffon even if it's starting to be a bit more on merit these days.
Then theres Oblak, Handanovic, Navas et al, all which aren't quite up there IMO.
But yeah for the 3rd spot I'd probably go for Courtois to be honest.
Neuer is Barthez-like in that he's always got a clanger in him. I'm probably biased, but I think De Gea has surpassed him.
Lloris is possibly the best shot stopper there is. Unfortunately he is also the worst distributor scince Yodel were caught chucking parcels about on the hard shoulder.
Lloris is always good for a massive fuck up too.
Yeah hence why I hold Lloris below Courtois, personally.
@SvN you might be right really. Haven't seen Neuer that much in a while so.
Oblak is underrated.
Jan Oblak is quickly becoming the new Dennis Irwin.
I’ll let someone else have this one.
Dave Gayer is the best by miles, and has been for at least two years.
You forgot to mention he's Belgian. That can never be a good trait, can it?
De Gea > Oblak > Neuer
Oblak’s stats are ridiculous though. More clean sheets than goals conceded in La Liga.
I suspect Atletico Madrid are prone to making goalkeepers look good.
I've never heard of Oblak til this thread. Is he an international?
Slovenia, so essentially no. He's Atletico's main keeper for 3 seasons now, though.
That’s a bit harsh. Slovenia don’t exactly have world renowned defenders and his record for them has been fairly impressive - especially at home.
?

Can we sack every one of them?
Already thinking about different career choices, might be wise.
It appears that we'll be playing 4 at the back with Debuchy (hasn't played since we lost to Sheffield Wednesday a year ago), Holding, Elneny (midfielder) and Reiss Nelson (a winger)
Respect the point lads.
Ostersunds winning against Bilbao. That's them at 9 points already. Zorya 2nd at 6 and Bilbao and Hertha at 1 (provided the results stay as they are in the last 10 minutes).
As a reminder, last season was their first at the Swedish top tier and this one is their first ever appearance in Europe.
It's pretty impressive. Graham Potter for king.
Ah damn, late equaliser. Still a win at home against Zorya and they are through.
Jack Wilshere is a fucking boss. He'll be starting at the World Cup.
