A draw here would be disappointing, but not shocking. Still, I'll call it a 0-1 win as this is a true must win game for our top four hopes. Drop points in this one and I suspect even Ashur will throw in the towel. The thing is, on paper even a depleted United side should completely (thinking about the right word that won't upset Brainfart) destroy this Middlebrough side. If my information is correct, boro haven't won a prem match since December 17 over Swansea, but they seem to have hung in there in most matches since then and even our victory over them on December 31 was only 2-1. Without Ibra, Pogba, Herrera and I fear Martial as well, we could be a good bet for a grim draw. They'll sit back, understandably so, we'll dominate possession and we'll create a few chances. But can we capitalize on at least one or two of those chances?
Well he was at least. Miki was very talented and being shunned by Jose exactly how Memphis was. The only difference is that Jose eventually gave Miki a chance.
It's a Mourinho trait, sending one of his 'players' to train on their own, so nobody can say he favours his own signings, seems to work most of the time for him though.
Enough of this shit. He's scored against Toulouse, Metz, and Nancy. All bottom half teams in a shit league other than PSG and Monaco. He's padding his stats against stat padding teams in a stat padding league. Conversation over.
As mentioned elsewhere, Memphis's success in France is nice to see. Long may it continue. The change in narrative for a league often referred to the parrot as a "pub league" is the funny thing to note here...
Boro will open it's autism sensory room tomorrow for the game vs United. www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-tees-39308709 No idea some football clubs had such facilities in their stadiums. Great to see them trying to make games accessible to everyone in this manner.
That was in comparison to the other possible matchups. Just because they're tougher than Anderlecht doesn't make them a powerhouse. I'm more afraid of Besiktas and Celta Viga than them.
You're right. They're 16 points behind powerhouse Nice in their league but we should be terrified. That's why oddsmakers have us 6/4 to win the competition.
I think you're referring to Gilma and not me, but if you are referring to me, please show me where I've ever said the French league was anything other than a joke.
Are you the one using the term "pub league" when talking about the French league every chance he gets and acting like some dumb parrot (on top of acting constantly like some stupid jerkoff desperate for some attention)? I didn't think so...
Again I'm sure you're right. You probably know more than the people paid to create odds that always keep them making money.
