Not not at all. I'm simply laughing at your ignorance and self worth that you find you can speak for all football fans on the De Gea v Neuer topic. But hey you keep up the good work

No problem, on such an obvious topic it isn't that difficult really.
Meanwhile De Gea hasn't had his best day today either.

Fcuk had a nice bet on 1-1, only time I'd be dissapointed to see United lose.

I love that you think that claiming Neuer is better than De Gea is funny....oh to inhabit the world that you do.

My post was some what tongue in cheek but I did a bit of googling, as per ESPN, in the league thus far this season DDG has made 55 saves in 21 games vs 33 in 20 for Neuer.

The German league is essentially a one horse race with a lot of poor teams and no team with the money or drawing power to challenge Bayern.

I'd liken it to the PL in the 90s, when the "big 4" played the lower level teams its almost a given that the big 4 teams will win.

So, much less to do, behind a much better defence than ours, the gap is very very close, ddg is also 4 or 5 years younger.

Should he have kept it out.

Ah well, that's that. No chance of Sunderland winning now which is the only result that is good enough today.

Off to do something else with my weekend as opposed to letting these useless **** ruin it again.

I hope you didn't go, Paully!

Paully D is currently writing the most negative celebration post right now....

Yes, Neuer plays for one of the best teams in the world because he is the best keeper in the world, that's kinda how football works, the best players play for the best teams. So why should that stat matter? If Butland or Foster save more per game than both of those keepers are they the best goalkeeper in the world? Keylor Navas and Claudio Bravo must be useless if that stat is what you base the quality of your keeper on.

My head hurts so I'm not even going to touch the next few paragraphs, I haven't stocked up on aspirin.

It really isn't "very very close" at all, you just think it is.

But Neuer is the undisputed most complete keeper we'e ever seen apparently.

On a more relevant note, LVG should be sacked immediately. A great opportunity to close the gap on at least half of the current top 4 this weekend and United lose to one of the worst teams in the league.

GreNoLi

Lack of champs league will be good for united, make a realistic tilt at the title with Mourinho.

irishguitarlad

Big Sam and LVG equals the death of football.

Nice to see O Shea get MOTM, hope he carries that form into the Euros
Only thing positive I can take from the match

Top four looks out of reach now so I'd say LVG's time up

Too early for booze?

Good Result for my Everton top 6 bet. Didn't expect United to drop points there at all!

And De Gea is better cos "he gets down better".....and plays for Manchester United

Yeah agree. He has to go tonight. Outplayed and outfought by a very poor Sunderland team. Just didn't work for him.

Who would have thought it would be a goalie that would bring us together :pac:

Its similar to how Mignolet was rated so high in the Sunderland team a few years ago.
For me De Gea is one of the top maybe 7 goalies, but I dont have him as the best. Right now their is 5 goalies in the league in Cech, Lloris, De Gea, Hart and Courtois
Id have Courtois and De Gea 1 & 2 but the drop to the others isnt massive, which I think we will see next year if United get CL and Spurs dont cause Lloris is the obvious replacement for De Gea
I do however not think Neuer is the best ever, Id still give that to Buffon or Uniteds own Big Dane or Kahn, but in last 3/4 years hes been best

A complete spoofer bill

The fact we are on the backfoot in injury time a goal down is incomprehensible!

Lovely great result

I don't know why Man U are waiting until the summer to bring in Mourinho. Bring him in now. Give him a few months to assess the squad and see who has to go and who to bring in.

Francie Barrett

Fair play to Sunderland, they played well today and didn't let themselves be sucked into United's dismal long ball game.

Andre 3000

What a mental season and there's no sign of it slowing up soon either.

blueser

Well done to the Mackems, a well deserved victory for them today.

Paully D

Kone has been threatening that since his debut. He missed 2 sitters from those exact situations against Manchester City. He's a weapon in the opposition box.

You can see why Allardyce has been after him since his time at West Ham.

Well Done Pauly D!
Be happy!!

Do people actually think Jose will actually go to United? I cannot see him going there tbh.

It is a scary partnership but I can't believe there are actually people who believe De Gea is better than Neuer, this proves 3 things.
1. That some Manchester United fans who wear those red goggles can only see 1 team playing football.
2. None of these people watch Neuer each week, or even once every couple weeks.
3. The Premier League hype machine is a scary, strong thing.

United do not play a long ball game. Go again.

They are ****ing ****e, but their style is not long ball.

GavRedKing

I have to admit, I'd be shocked if Mourinho isnt brought in before Utds next fixture. Utd have nothing to lose now and sacking LVG might push them towards a top 4 finish which is very much still within their grasp but they to maek that call sooner rather than later.

Why? I'd say he'd love that job. He'll be given plenty of money to spend.

If you were him would you want to?

I wouldn't think so anyway.

The worst thing is we are probably stuck with him for the season at the very least.
