Don't be surprised if Mbappe ends up in Spain before the seasons start as he is too pricey for us.

Origi is a good player but l am not sure Klopp agrees with me.

Re: Season 2021/22
The football season is back, my first game attendance since last year. A good time was had.
As I get older seem to be going further away from cricket ('the hundred' was the last straw), and more back to 'the beautiful game'. Thought is was supposed to he the other way round when you got older !.
As for rugby union, stoppages for video refs has destroyed the international game. Each half is lasting over an hour for all the stoppages, it was supposed to be a free flowing game...
At least VAR isn't an issue in the football I watch, ref as well as player mistakes are part of the game. It usually evens out over a season.

Re: Season 2021/22
Just watched the second Brentford goal, how was that not a clear foul on the keeper?

Re: Season 2021/22
Due to the rules forever being buggered about with, I'm of the opinion that the only people who can correctly identify a foul (ha) are chicken farmers

It was a clear foul.
Quite surprised that Arsenal picked the team that they did.
The Arsenal fans have already started and we are only in game one of the season.

Re: Season 2021/22
Well that was good fun, credit to Leeds they don't sit with 10 men behind the ball. Pogba has his head on today.

Re: Season 2021/22
It will be interesting to see how much he plays or whether he is on the subs bench mostly as financially Man Utd will make plenty of money worldwide with merchandise sales as there must be millions out there who are still willing to buy anything with the name Ronaldo on it.

Re: Season 2021/22
Have serious reservations about this, could turn out to be Sanchez mk2, when United gazumped City for Sanchez and he was a total dead weight.
It will be very good for shirt sales as long as they can get Cavani to relinquish the #7 shirt.
Long term I think it may unsettle the team, Ronaldo is past his best, never tracks back or presses, you can’t afford a player like that in the Premiership like you can in La Liga or Serie A.
I sincerely hope I am wrong but time will tell.

Not sure Lingard is the problem, suspect United are trying to squeeze more out of the deal than is justified.

Plenty of other failures to replace him with, such is the state of 'modern football'
