Not even worth going back to bump all the fapping done during the summer transfer window. Going 0-3-0 this season against Arsenal should bring enough lulz

All top 4 teams have a chance to win the title, that is awesome.

Between that, the relegation battle and the 2 europa league spots its gonna be a fun end to the season

Nothing less than I expected tbh, little disappointed we only scored one from open play but the SAS had a rare off day and we still put 3 past the mancs at home

 

p.s. where's everyone's favorite hun been hiding, he's been awfully quiet since our supposed collapse has failed to occur

Very true, one of the best and most competitive Prem seasons as far as amount of teams in it to win it.

By the way, guess who played centrally against United?

Maybe that had something with Liverpool's attack looking so average?

Meh. When you bet on sports you get used to your opinions being wrong about 50% of the time.

Couldn't get in front of a television so I missed the match. Went to a world of beer and watched spurs not do their job. Some liverpool supporters were in attendance

Romour has it United after Van Gaal......???? Well see, but the Glazers are not happy, and SAF pull ain't what it was. Prolly just a rumour, but a breath of fresh air for a desperate fan base right now.

Pressure is mounting. Worth noting, Van Gaal would have replaced red nose in 2002 if he had went through with the retirement.

Eighteen-year-old German-American striker Julian Green has officially decided to represent the United States internationally, U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann said and multiple sources told ESPNFC on Tuesday.

The Florida-born Green, who had made two senior team appearances for UEFA Champions League holders Bayern Munich this season, submitted paperwork to FIFA, the sources said.

Klinsmann confirmed Green's decision on Twitter:


U.S. Soccer is expected to make an announcement on Tuesday evening, a source with knowledge of the federation's plans said. Earlier Tuesday, SI.com reported that Green would train with the U.S. ahead of next month’s friendly in Phoenix against Mexico, as he had before the Americans' March 5 loss to Ukraine in Cyprus.

Green's application to switch international teams may or may not be approved in time for Green to participate in the Mexico match, which is the last tune-up for Klinsmann's team before its pre-World Cup training camp begins in Northern California in mid-May. But Green is eligible to play for the U.S., so it's simply a matter of time until he gets the green light.

The appeal to FIFA was necessary because Green has participated in competitive matches with Germany's under-19 team during European qualifying.

But Klinsmann, a former star forward and coach at Bayern, has been heavily recruiting Green. He originally invited him to train with the Yanks in November, an invitation Green declined. But Green accepted the invite earlier this month and was photographed in a group picture with five of the squad's other German-Americans.

Last week, Klinsmann told USsoccer.com that if Green decided to represent his birth nation, he'll have a chance to make the 23-man squad for this summer's World Cup in Brazil.

"This is a player who has tremendous potential going forward," Klinsmann said. "I think there's a strong chance to see him rather sooner than later and there's also a chance for him to break even into this World Cup roster. But first he has to make this decision and we go from there."

Rumors are that it's going to be Giggsy. I honestly have no idea how that would turn out.
