I'm a bit nervous about the potential result of the Crystal Palace vs Bournemouth game. We cant lose sight of the top 10, even at this early stage.

Who's that guy?
All the 3pm PL kick-off's were 2-0. Everton just ruined it.
Im assuming BT Sport thought the writer needed his face attached to the article.
He didn't.

by Joe Ganley29 September 201815:33Jose Mourinho suggested that a bad start and two key mistakes from the match officials cost Manchester United during their 3-1 defeat to West Ham United on Saturday.
The boss stressed that the team needed to start the contest at London Stadium well after a disappointing Carabao Cup exit at the hands of Derby County on Tuesday, but United were behind in just the fifth minute due to Felipe Anderson's well-executed opener.The manager believed that the goal should not have stood - and would have been ruled out in a game that utilised the VAR system - due to an offside claim. United's misery was then compounded by a Victor Lindelof own goal just before the interval and a second-half strike from Marko Arnautovic, which Mourinho felt should have been chalked off for a foul from Pablo Zabaleta on Marcus Rashford during the build-up.WE NEEDED TO START WELL“We were a team that comes with that mental fragility of a bad result [the Derby match]. Coming here and after five minutes we were losing 1-0, which is not the best way to start. The goal was offside and, last Tuesday with the VAR, it would not have been a goal. Then in the first half we had a good reaction but an own goal makes 2-0. An own goal where we knew Yarmolenko is very, very left-footed, we had to cover that side, we had Matic on the ball and Luke Shaw and Lindelof very close by, but we were not aggressive enough to close that shot and then we were losing 2-0."
RASHFORD WAS FOULED
“In the second half we took a little bit of time to react, but then we did. Their goalkeeper made a couple of good saves, their centre-backs had a fantastic match. Congratulations to the scout that found the 21-year-old kid, [Issa] Diop - a monster who dominated everything in the duels. Then we scored to make it 2-1, and there was a referee’s mistake - it was a foul on Marcus Rashford. Zabaleta didn't have an attempt to play the ball, he just pulled the player from behind. And then the third goal killed the game and mentally killed the team that had a reaction and had a little bit of reward for that reaction. Not the pride - it didn't kill the pride. I could see some of the players going until the end. I could see brave McTominay and Smalling trying to go forward and bring the ball, to go to set-pieces. But the third goal, mentally, was a big blow for the team.”
PRAISE FOR MCTOMINAY'S DEFENSIVE JOB“He was the best [of the back three]. He had a fantastic attitude, he's aggressive and brave, and he has something that we thought was important for us: he has quality on the ball. He knows how to play football, he's technically good, he can bring the ball into offensive areas, so I'm really happy with the job the kid did.”
MARTIAL DESERVED TO START“For how many months people is asking for Martial, Martial, Martial? For how many months is people saying, 'Alexis Sanchez is not playing well enough'? So this week it was time to agree and to say: 'Let's give a chance to Martial and let's leave Alexis out.'
WE DID NOT SHOW OUR QUALITY“I have no complaints with the players' attitude. I can have complaints with some quality; I can have some complaints with some mental approach in certain duels, where you could see, for example, Snodgrass coming to the pitch with an incredible attitude that he wants to eat the ball and wants to eat everyone around him. You need a little bit of that - I don't know if it's the right word in English - humility. You have always to try, also because that's my nature as a football professional. But there are certain qualities we don't have.”
WE SHOULD LOOK FORWARD TO VALENCIA
“For myself, speaking of my own feelings, I am really happy that we have a game on Tuesday. I am really happy that I now go to the train and I start immediately thinking about training tomorrow, about the match on Tuesday and I prefer that than playing next Sunday, with one week of these bad feelings. I look forward to that match on Tuesday and I hope the majority of the players have this same kind of mentality, and that they are looking forward to Tuesday.
Jose Mourinho was speaking to BT Sport and MUTV.

Defeat to West Ham means Manchester United have just 10 points after seven Premier League games, equalling their lowest ever tally at this point.
Jose Mourinho’s side have won only three of those games while Marcus Rashford’s backheel against the Hammers was just their 10th goal of the campaign.

Craig Foster on SBS's football panel was saying that he'd not bother watching United before the last half hour or now probably the last 10 because it's like we don't try until we are running out of time and/or are behind.
Jose's going on about 'an offside goal' and 'an own goal' then something about an offside that shouldn't have been.
Michael Bridges (Leeds legend
) on the SBS panel said 'the last time I heard that many excuses from someone, it was when my son didn't do his homwork.'

Speaking from experience?
Well Gazz is the most decorated manager on this board but it has been said he's not the coach he once was and maybe the game has just passed him by.

We are shit
Pretty sure on the next phone in on MUTV they hosts will be 'if we'd won the last couple of games, nobody would even be talking about a crisis.'

Don't most of the people on this board usually hate West Ham?
-
Seeing as Optus and SBS have the Australian broadcasting rights, I only get to see Utd live when SBS, a free-to-air station, get to air one of their games.
Such as tonight. Not good timing, with that start.
Anyway, early goal conceded aside, it definitely makes a refreshing change from the mutv pre-game analysis and the mutv radio commentary that I've been forced to rely on since 2016. Actual genuine discussion about the issues surrounding the club and commentary that never gets ott at times.

It's the cool thing to hate anything superhero that Disney is involved in and part of that is big upping anything superhero Disney is not involved in, regardless of quality.

Watching the live Reserves game vs Norwich and they had Jose's press conference at half time.
Unsurprisingly every question was either directly about him vs Pogba, or indirectly about it. Indirectly as in asking if the disruption is making preparation for the next game more difficult.
-
I know delving into the murky world of online comments is a fools game but some of the people talking about the trailer are real morons.
'I can't wait for the last good X-Men movie before Disney ruins the franchise. '
Seems to be a lot of variations on the above comment floating around. Like the Fox X-Men franchise is free of crap.

Granted its an official club channel and you'd expect no different but MUTV seemed to be focusing more on how well our last 2 opponents played, rather than anything being wrong with our team itself. Paddy Crerand wouldn't shut up about how good Wolves were for example.

I really need to check out Discovery to find out for myself if it's as shit as the other people I know say it is, or as good as you guys say it is.
Strangely enough I'd probably be the most disappointed if I just found it to be average. Like I expected Fan4tastic to be horrifically bad but it was average and that was disappointing. Average is just dull.

I'm okay with the idea of a kickstarter unconnected to Telltale, featuring people from the existing WD creative team, which is something I've also seen people call for but throwing money at telltale itself, after how everything went down? Eh.
I'd fear, instead of hiring back the previous team, telltale management would instead just hire the cheapest available options, release a half-arsed couple of episodes and give the majority of the donated money to creditors.

There was a tweet on the ticker of the mutv radio broadcast with the person saying that Everton could hit 5, if we don't pick up our game.
They've stopped showing tweets now, for some reason....
