Chris1989 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I was thinking more modern as Burnley used to be a top team. Seem to remember they beat United, and they beat Chelsea on penalties (only game I've ever seen us lose in 14 years) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) I seem to remember them beating us 2-0 somewhere...good few years back though.Now...if the Hammers and Liverpool come through for me I should have enough for that Z4 I've had my eye on . Klopps made 10 changes though. Edited January 30, 2016 by Len B'stard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris1989 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 So glad we're smashing Franchise FC. Not just because of the history, but also because I drove through MK last week and it is just a load of roundabouts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLegend Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Didn't watch the match, but Neville 2 months in the job.. failed to win any league games. Took Valencia who aren't exactly a minnow side from 4th to 12.Don't know what their situation is, but I'd be shocked Neville makes it to the end of the season. He's literally done more press interviews about the Man Utd job than goals his team has scored . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's succinct, it's direct, it's almost poetic in it's stark encapsulating brilliance, never let it be said that there is not a weight of intellect, deliberate or otherwise, behind the feelings of Chelsea supporters because, for my money, they've fuckin' nailed it here, absolutely nailed it, couldn't've said it better myself Lord Byron couldn't've put it better!

You and me both, Soulie was saying earlier in the season that they'd win and I said they wouldn't (and still don't think they will) and he thought i was being pessimistic but I'm not, I just know my team.

PappyTron Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I don't think that Guardiola is guaranteed success in the PL at all. It is by far the hardest job that he has had, relatively speaking, and the only player that City have at the moment who is in the same group as those at Barcelona and Bayern is Aguero. As always, it's "Man City will swoop for Pogba, Stones and XXX for £170m" which just shows that modern managers live and die by their chequebook. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreblack Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) Depends if he can get the players he wants to suit his style. Didn't have to change much at Bayern, but he also didn't take them to the heights of success that Heynckes did just before him. What a goal by Vardy yesterday.

PappyTron Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Vardy's goal was beautiful; I cannot begrudge him it, or Leicester their win. I think that, so far, Pep hasn't really hit a point where he has had to dig deep and show his credentials as a manager. If it is simply a case of him saying in the summer "I want Pogba, Stones, and £100 million worth of other players" and he gets them all, then that tells us very little. Has Pep ever turned a nobody into a superstar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PappyTron Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 So, Valencia have just been smashed 7-0 by Barcelona, with Suarez scoring four and Messi three. I wonder at what point the Valencia board give Neville the Spanish Archer, because as it stands he looks completely out of his depth. I wonder whether it will have any effect on the Man United board with Giggs as well, because I think people simply don't realise that being a good player or pundit is not the same as being a good manager. I like Neville, but he is getting battered from pillar to post in Spain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those unaware . That 7-0 was just the first leg of their Spanish Cup tie. If you fancy becoming a billionaire, I'm sure you can you put down a £1 bet on Neville turning it around with an 8-0 comeback next week...
