    tbf they'd find mobility an issue if you did that

    Eccles suspended

    It didn't sum up his evening FFS, it was one of a tiny number of occasions when he gave away possession

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    I'm not VAR. If you want 'conclusive', go to their decision taken with all the equipment at their disposal. My pictures were a genuine attempt to see if there was any mileage in accusing VAR of cocking it up, but trying to draw lines to make Haji onside is an impossible job, which explains why...

    VAR Edit: you've got to move them a hell of a lot to get the answer you'd like

    It's crystal clear to me, and that makes me comfortable with it. But believe what you want.

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    One last try on this. Here's the pictures I posted back in April. At the crucial moment (pics 3 &4), Haji stuck his leg out and under the inflexible rules (that give zero leeway to the attacker) he was offside. If you want to spend the rest of your life disbelieving it, that's up to you.

    Yes, you can argue that the rules should be changed to give more leeway to the attacking team, but that's a different matter. I confirmed in a series of photos I posted at the time that it was offside under the rules as they stand. I don't get why people are carrying this lifelong burden that we...

    He didn't though, his potential was clear and we signed him. People see a couple of poor touches or misunderstandings with teammates, declare that somebody is useless, keep the blinkers on and completely ignore their attributes. And it's still happening with some very good players now 🤷‍♂️

    A personal favourite of mine (which I counteracted at the time) was this. I'll spare the author's identity. Another fine example of someone getting it hopelessly wrong and projecting the same mistake onto everybody else :mad: Gyokeres 6 Let’s be honest, this guy is entirely forgettable, and if...

    Sporting boss Amorim being strongly linked with the Man Utd post. Not difficult to imagine he'd want Vik.

    These 'unseen' videos won't be nominated for BAFTAs, but they are nicely made and they do a fine job providing a glimpse of everyday life at the club for the players. Well done, keep them coming.

    Victor Torp

    People constantly criticising his stamina. He's still quite new to English football, he missed most of pre-season with an injury, and hasn't had a decent run of games yet. Far too soon to assume he can't be a contributor over 90 minutes.

    So many accusations lately that the players haven't been putting in the effort for the manager this season but tbh I haven't seen that at any stage. Things just haven't clicked, that's all. Such depressing overreactions on here to a run of poor results. We've only been properly outplayed once...
