The Man Utd thread (3)

I have a feeling that Onana is actually 1 of the best goalkeeper in the world,

and he’s only been crap at Man Utd,

because he never wanted to play for them in then 1st place,

so he played crap to get out of there,

watch him win the Ballon d’or next year! :wink:

I did like that end of the working day and then a game of football at 6pm.

That happened for a short period.

We all took great delight in that then we lost 7 -2 Villa 4 hours later.

Ours was an actual blip.

Theirs was an hilarious glimpse into things to come.

That never happened. When did that happen ?

It’s called a convenient memory loss.

Legendary edit. One of the best. Lol. Watched it half a dozen time. Hahaha.

It’s only difficult because they are shit, like I remember Liverpool having similar articles but it was mostly because we were poor.

I saw a compilation over the weekend and even after having lived through the glorious comedy of it all it was hard to believe it was real. There was one where he was facing down a 1-1 and fell over allowing the striker to just casually pop it past him :rofl:

I actually think I remember that. I expect about a month or so from now there will be issues with the latest keeper.

They mean he’s a pouty little shit bag

That will shag then steal his best mates girlfriend

Will they ever learn. Give the lad some games let him build himself up… don’t tag him with a goalkeeper from the same country it’s a bit lazy and just setting the lad up for a fall.

He’s also from the same country as a certain Simon Mignolet… :eyes:

One of the best things about Redcafe is that it’s a fantastic view into the manc brain. They recognize how shite they are, yet simultaneously think they’ve got a good squad and a great manager and are just a couple of tweaks away from being a top-4 club again.

They take the defeats and shitty draws as you’d expect - with doom and gloom and calling for change and lamenting writing off yet another season, but over the course of an international break, they begin to talk themselves back around into believing that they’ll get a great result against City and will be back in the top-4 race.

It’s absolutely fascinating, it’s like they have no concepts of recent events and how they relate to current/future events. They’re convinced that they have a top defense and one of the best forward lines in the league, and that this new GK kid is going to be one of the best 'keepers in the leage before he’s put on a glove for them.

I think this is what makes it so funny for me. We had boom/bust cycles that would begin each summer, fizzle out by November (usually), but we wouldn’t spend the rest of the season believing that we were just about to turn the corner and get back in the title race. These deadshits have boom-bust cycles that are measures in weeks.
