English Premier League

[Roberto]

Liverpool lost the title in the FA Cup really. Never recovered and Palace fucked them when they were in pole position.

Bottle went.

Everton result isnt a shock.

When Everton are relegated next season it won't be a shock either as Dynamo alluded to.

Liverpool are winning fuck all else. Klopp is an attention seeking arsehole. Just couldn't wait to tell the world about his big decision. Absolute cretin.

Looking awfully like Ipswich Town will be in the EPL next season.

How did the delta ray boy manage to get himself banned?

He was debating on Indy Ref page but nothing worthy of banning! It was mentioned who everyone thought he used to be and maybe that was enough 

[The Cockney Don]

CHEATING BASTARDS .

[Poodler]

Stinking penalty decision. He should be banned for life for that dive

Another goal disallowed because someone's knee was offside.

So offside then...

I think we need to go back to measuring at the feet. 

The offside and handball rules are an abomination

It's mental that Ten Hag could get sacked tomorrow and land the Bayern job shortly after.

Who would replace him tho, there doesn’t seem to be any big name managers going about or up and coming managers looking to make the step up if you’d call United a step up

Not really an excuse to keep him just because there isn't an obvious replacement. He's clearly out his depth. Would be surprised if he's in charge next season.

Rumour is nearly all the squad is up for sale, so does Radcliffe think the squad is the problem and not the manager

It was the manager who signed half of them….

Probably a combination of both to be honest. Some players not good enough but he's not been great getting a tune out of them or implementing a style of play.

Wouldn’t be overly surprised if he kept his job in the hope he either turns it around or as a stopgap until a better coach appears with the boy from Newcastle sourcing the players

That was debunked by the manager.

It's more, if you come in with a serious offer then we'll talk. No serious football club sells just for the sake of it. But Man Utd don't operate like a serious club, so you never know. 

The likes of Mctominay wasn't up for sale last year, but West Ham wouldn't stump up the cash, even though the player was interested in the move.

But I do think the squad is the problem. You've players still there from Van Gaal era, Solskjaer etc. Players playing whilst not fit and carrying injuries. Manager isn't without blame though.

I think he'll keep his job though. They've made massive changes behind the scenes. Think they'll see how he does with their support. He'll be gone by January I think. They'll also get raped in the FA Cup Final.

It's a team filled with complete arseholes. No wonder they're struggling.

Imagine Mark Kerr on 200k a week. They've got pretty much a first eleven of those.

Hasn’t he previously distanced himself from jobs in the EPL due to not speaking English

Zidane is a cheque book manager. He'll fail if they don't let him have all the best players and he's not getting those.

IMO Man Utd's problems started with Paul Pogba. Terrible signing, a guy who plays for himself, runs when he wants to doesn't when he can't be arsed. Then they compound it by bringing in Ronaldo, another "you run, I'll wait here" wanker. You think Fernandes is going to run about for those two? No chance, then Greenwood followed suit with the sulky cunt shit and then Rashford did likewise. It's a malaise and with the wrong guys leading the dressing room it won't change until they clear most of them out.

100% agree United failed in not bringing in quality team players! Prioritised single talent not squad building 

[sigh]

Davie Moyes - must be pissed off - takes over a team fighting relegation, gets then up the table, qualifies for Europe, great few seasons (even winning one Euro comp) and then gets telt errrrrrr well you've no signed yer contract extension so here, weve just brought this other lad in to be manager.

Will watch with interest how hard West Ham fall in the next few seasons.

Moyes the next Scotland manager?

[The Gee Man]

Moyes will be waiting for the expected managerial merry go round at the end of the season. The likes of Brentford, Brighton maybe Burnley. These jobs come up and then even more move about. He’s likely to be left a chair come end of July

When did we do that? For my entire football watching life it's been "any part of the body that can play the ball".

What a terrible and ill-informed take.
