BBC5 Commentary - Highlights
Brutal
The only reason Hannibal didnāt leave the field of play five minutes after entering it was that Atkinson took pity on him.
Iāll never understand this āshow some fightā mentality. Changing around the pitch like a headless chicken, giving away cheap free kicks, is not what a football team needs ever.
Pretty much sums it up.
On the plus side I feel justified for choosing to highlight Shola Shoretire instead of Hannibal Mejbri in my pre-season youth write-up.
āI went back and forward on this one. Hannibal Mejbri is a big name in English youth football at the moment and the extremely talented Tunisian is older making him seemingly a more viable prospect for the near future. However, in the end I couldnāt overlook Shola Shoretireā¦ā
So +1 for me I guess!
Yeah even Atkinson basically pointed to his head and said use it.
If thatās all he ever does in his career at least Iāll remember him mind, Sideshow Bob renamed Hannibal.
How low they have sunk.
Sure, but is it pathetic because they are saying it or pathetic because itās true?
I said it myself in the first half, that the biggest indictment of them as a team and a group of players, was that not a single one of them showed even the slightest amount of hurt about how the game was going. I dont advocate for kicking players who are better than you, but it is an almost inevitable outcome of a side who thinks they should get something out of a game being so badly outplayed. The fact it took them 85 minutes to kick one of us I thin is the worst things about that performance. It was a performance even more gutless than it was shit.

Not exactly true, De Gea spat his dummy out at Trent for kicking a ball near him within 15 mins!
Btw, what happened with Thierney last night he had an excellent chance to call Atkinson to the monitor and had KeĆÆta send off and he blew it
It is pathetic that so many of their fans are parroting Nevilleās nonsense about that mophead boy being their man of the match because he came on and started kicking people.
Someone needs to have a word with Mejbri. Heās a shithouse, overzealous rat similar to Guendouzi. He will have a short career if he keeps playing like that. You canāt just introduce yourself and start chopping down respected players with years in this league. Someone will end him.
I literally laughed out loud when Atkinson pulled him aside, pointed at his watch and told him how many fouls he already gave away since coming on then he pointed at his head telling the kid to be smarter.
Heās probably reading a book like he did in the Man City game, amusing theyāve kept him away from Klopp.
Mind you Atkinson rarely goes to VAR as Tyler pointed out once.
Fernandes petulant kick at Trent was 100% more red card material than Keita falling going into a tackle.

So did Steve Nichol, on ESPN.
Come on guys we all support the same club and last night was one of the best nights this season smashing those mouthy mancs 9-0 on aggregate.
So did Goldbridge. Unbelievable.

My message is simple. We just won 4-0. We should not be angry or fighting with one another
