Steve Mclaren has been oddly entertaining on the Leeds/Fulham game

I'd be more than happy for us to buy Ighalo.
He certainly knows how to bag in a scrappy goal. I’d be happy if he takes a significant pay cut.
Do Cubans still have to defect to play sport abroad? They seem to have to in baseball but that might just be America.
lol at that goal-line clearance.
Do they not check for offside at all for red cards at all? He might have been on but it looked close. Didn’t even bother looking
Has the Bundesliga finished @Sir Andy Mahowry?
It feels like without the crowd noise to go off the commentators are talking more bollocks than usual. United should just do what peak Barcelona did with corners and re-circulate the possession because I don't think I'll ever see them score from one again.
Penalties should be interesting with Krul and Romero.
Fernandes has been horrific
That ball by Pogba was lovely.
Team that needs to win vs team that doesn't care on the last day is only ever going one way, regardless of form.
Tell that to Dusseldorf.
They didn't (necessarily) need to win, Werder Bremen it was shit or bust.
Dusseldorf would have been playing for a draw as they'd have known that Bremen would have had to win by at least 4 goals.
Dundee United is about to appoint Malky McKay as the manager is absolutely tremendous. You’d think he was only caught sending the texts last week and hadn’t been employed by the SFA for four years.
There appears to have been a clear back-pass from Sheff Utd, but for some reason, no replays have been shown yet.
Sheffield United having their second season collapse within the same season is probably Taz's fault.
Arsenal defending more contagious than Coronavirus.
De Gea would get crucified for conceding that Arsenal goal at the end there. What's the 'keeper thinking?
Think he tried to be proactive and close the player down since none of the defenders seemed interested in doing it but it was very rash.
The bottle job Hamburg have put in is quite something
Gilmour is having an absolute mare
Should really be switching positions with Kante though.
Jorginho must be on his way out. Hasn’t seen a sniff of play.
Ben Foster won’t want to see that back. Though looking back Ings probably deserves more credit than Foster deserves criticism.
Danny Ings is class.
Ross Barkley would be too if he had half a brain. Has great positional awareness but I don’t think he’s ever made a correct decision if he’s got more than one second to think
That's some finish from Bednarek.
That’s a cracker.
And that's a blinder from Ward Prowse.
Who's the last player to win and manage at the same club to win the FA Cup?
Also, good job BBC. Make me feel depressed before a ball is kicked.
Probably one of the Chelsea foreign legion, someone like Vialli or Gullit? If you mean win as player and then manager, but then does being player-manager count for that? Martinez at Wigan?
George Graham?
Vialli's the last one.15 men have won the tournament both as a player and as a manager: John Cameron as player-manager in 1901, Peter McWilliam, Billy Walker, Jimmy Seed, Matt Busby, Stan Seymour, Joe Smith, Bill Shankly, Joe Mercer, Don Revie, Bob Stokoe, Kenny Dalglish, Bobby Gould, Terry Venables, George Graham and Gianluca Vialli.
That free-kick for Newcastle...City have a small 2-man wall and their usual high line but leave a massive gap straight through the middle as they focus their men where the cross is going to be aimed at. Newcastle need to have ASM as one of the takers and for his partner to just tap it to him and allow him a free run straight at the City defence.
Almost half an hour in and Newcastle have completed fifteen passes.
Well, that's that.
Nice of Newcastle to make a game of it.
"It's like playing football in a washing machine."
Erm, yeah, Martin.
His attempts at drawing chess analogies was peak.
"You could say the full-backs are rooks and this man (KDB), is he the king or the queen?"
Between him, Micah and Shearer, there must be about 20 brain cells that managed to survive the excessive headers.
Lineker's Cher joke was the worst of the lot.
Of course Shearer sees the takeover as good news. Bald cunt.
