Well I guess it depends on your approach. If you just sit and ignore it knowing you'll never get on in a game where your creativity might be useful it could be pretty stress free.

I was sort of at a loss to understand why he was getting hammered so much, but didn't realise his being injured led to that bizarre freekick dropback from Ward-Prowse. I'm doubtful that that cover story is really true, and it was more of wacky modern tactic gone wrong, but hey ho.
'United already looking like a Ralf Rangnick team. The way...'
*black and white Rangnick avatar*
*sniffs own seat*
Started doing a long post about reactionary football media after seeing a ‘Chelsea get hammered’ headline before realising the very obvious pun.
They do actually look like a different team. Aaron Wan-Dyspraxia is done for.
Patrick Viera’s chubby face makes it look like he’s got a permanent allergic reaction
United are just playing with a bit of energy which is clearly what we've lacked all season. Full backs who can attack as well is pretty cool as well.
1-0 Fred.
Finally the useless lump does something.
With his even weaker foot as well lol.
Over half of Freiburg’s players have scored away to Monchengladbach at half time. Lolz
Great playacting by Kasper to have that goal ruled out but it still requires retardedness by the referee. That can't be a rule, can it?
Cuadrado banging in direct from a corner, big dick energy.
Micah Richards and Leon Osman trying to argue with the use of legalese. A mark of the times if ever we needed one.
Apparently the rule is 1 hand and the ground is sufficient for the 'keeper to be in control of the ball, so the decision was technically correct.
They really should just scrap the tast 20 years of tinkering and go back to the drawing board... then don't draw on it. Every time they add a layer of context, they just create new ways of annoying people.
An attempt at (over)protection, but it won't really protect a keeper in this case as every player is going to go for that ball with the keeper stretching his hand out to touch it. That said, I liked seeing Pope get knocked about 15 yards out of his goal and get nothing out of it against Newcastle.
United already look like a Ralf Rangnick team. The way they pressed and played with so much directness going forward was pure Ralf, especially in the first 30 minutes.
True. I have watched every RB Leipzig match in the last five years, and that is exactly how they play. Total Ralf performance.
Pure Ralf
Donned.
Thought I'd have to wait for a new page for that to work.

Don't know about a Ralf performance but definitely a new manager performance. I've seen United to that sort of high energy first few games a number of times now until they get bored and throw the towel in.
Still, a clean sheet was nice.
Carrick would've probably won that match as well.
It reminded me of the first few games under interim-Solksjaer, where everyone was running their bollocks off. We'll see if it lasts.
Dalot 4.4m in FPL.
Another one for the 'Mourinho was Right' column.
At least he's nearly back from his holiday.
Possibly the only person who cares about the FA Cup 3rd round draw. Going to get smashed by Citeh but should be a good atmosphere at least.
We've got Strawberry FC at home, so no doubt they'll have us to court again.
Goodson Park is such a class looking spot. It’ll be such a shame down the line when they’re all big soulless bowls.
Home tie against Cambridge. I'm alright with that. Charlton might sneak past Norwich.
Man Utd - Villa, FA Cup 3rd Round. Does this tie come round every few years or is it just me?
Comes round twice a year for the last few years.
Reading skills. 👏🏻
After seeing that Bayern penalty Bellingham wasn’t far off the mark. Complete bullshite.
Intent doesn’t matter but you can tread on an opponents face? Interesting.
Everton are horseshit so naturally Arsenal will give them a hatful of chances.
2 goals in 2 games for Odegaard, how's the watch going Taz?
Absolutely undeserved. Love it.
‘That’s 100% intentional’
‘Do you think it’s a red card?’
‘I can see why they haven’t given it’
What?
That’s a joke of an offside and hopefully a sign of why the rule doesn’t work.
I thought the latest changes were meant to stop these ridiculous decisions?
Foot to foot. It was clearly further ahead of the other guys foot. It’s a stupid rule not a stupid application of the rule.
Can they find a way to make that one offside too?
Fair result.
