Madridistas All Over Copa And Euros Collide While Colombians Dominate - The Other Teams Thread

Man Utd losing 3-1 at home to Nottingham Forest.

 

How's that begging?

 

watching Yoro playing for Manure not having the best day so far

 

Yoro weak as ********

Man u getting dicked by Forest

 

It would be great to see Nottingham Forest playing in Europe again, for a club that was so dominant in the 1970s, to fall so far to League one and come back is great for football.

 

Man Utd 2-3 Forest

Lovely stuff

 

Valencia lost 1-0 at home to Rayo. They are 19th with 10 points. I don't think they lost any key players last summer either.

Baraja was praised for his work taking them from relegation contenders in 2022-23 to 9th last season. But horrible start this season.

 

Utd are 13th. Probably another year without CL football for them next season.

 

"Probably"

 

Being cautious because Amorim has an impressive record. Took Sporting Lisbon to first title in 19 years and won it again last season. Ten Hag won titles with Ajax who are the favourites in Netherlands.

5th probably enough for a CL spot in PL and right now Forest, Villa, Brentford, Brighton, Fulham, Bournemouth are 5-10. Spurs and NU struggling at 11th and 12th.

 

Watching the 2nd half of the MLS Final. Horrible television production. Stadium is half in sunlight makes it so poor to watch.

 

Getting Ashworth in was a big story here in the summer, and they paid millions to get him out of his contract at Newcastle

EXCLUSIVE: Dan Ashworth leaves #MUFC after 5months as sporting director. Sir Jim Ratcliffe pivotal to call. Parting agreed in meeting with Omar Berrada at Old Trafford post Forest. Presented as mutual ⬇️

5 months?!

 

Add to this renewing EtH and then firing him, laying off long time club staff to pinch pennies, United at their lowest points tally after 15 games since the 80s… it doesn’t seem like Ineos’ results have been much better than the Glazers. Incredibly.

 

Pep needed a full year and a half probably to make City a top team and he had way better squad to begin with. Let’s see how Amorim will do but I think that he has a chance to shine post Pep and Klopp.

 

Meh, the quality of the football is what made it hard to watch.

The ball was in the air half the time. MLS players seem to love to play head tennis, instead of bringing the ball to ground, and combining with each other. Movement off the ball was poor. Defending was poor. Goalkeeping was poor.

If these were the two best teams in that league, they've got a long way to go.

 

Eh, with the Euros, the Olympics, and other summer tournaments, the workload on top players has got to be heavier this year than in other years. I'd imagine that this has got to be part of the cavalcade of injuries.

With the stoopid nations league adding a modicum of competitive edge to international play, I'd guess that injuries will continue to be at issue going forward.


I for one have become less of a fan of international football over the years. It just gets in the way of club football, IMO.

 

The football was abysmal. But as a showcase event to market your league with Americans, the TV production was unwatchable. Why choose a time/stadium where it is half in sun and half in shade. I couldn’t tell what was going on half the time as the camera couldn’t adjust to the light.

 

88th minute goal from Saka puts Arsenal ahead

....or will it be VAR'd out?

Yep. Offside

 

Cucurella wearing the wrong boots. That is so amateurish.

Great game. This could go either way and have any number of goals.
