Giroud's celebration might be the worst celebration I have ever seen in football, ever.

What a moronic thing to do with 5 minutes left on the clock. One of their players even ran into the crowd. That's why they don'twin things despite being talented.

Feckin Bournmouth teasing me

I couldn't keep my eyes fully on it this second half, what was the straight red for?

He dived in and went over the top of the ball. A little harsh but can see why it was given. The Arsenal player(Ramsey?) lay motionless face down which may have influenced the ref slightly but miraculously was fine five seconds later.

Jayop

Assuming the Chelsea/Spurs game isn't a draw then we'll have made up 17 points on the teams above us in the last 5 games.

Happy Days.

GSPfan

Shave that beard off your face you bleedin sap!

Goes from the coolest goal he'll ever score to celebrating an equaliser like a fool in injury time when they are chasing a winner.

I actually like Giroud believe it or not.

They played like the Arsenal we all know and love for 70 minutes. They made Bournemouth look like Brazil.

But yeah point taken about the comeback. Bournemouth did capitulate completely and looked out on their feet.

Half the team will be tweeting pics from the dressing room now as well.

Yeah sending off was harsh imo.

No wonder they're celebrating.

Strengthening their grip on fourth.

Martial scores to level against Boro and runs to get the ball and back to the halfway line.

Giroud scores to level against Bournmouth and puts on a dance routine. Brilliant mentality.

Why is Bailly already gone and Zaha is allowed to play tonight!?

Zaha is English, isn't he?

Edit. Just saw that he switched to Ivory Coast. So no clue. Was he picked?

It was bizzare to say the least. More so when the celebration was paying homage to Mkhitaryan.

Going to ANC with Ivory Coast.

No idea why he was left play and Bailly wasn't given the extra 24 hours.

Maybe Bailly is a first team player, so they were happy enough to leave Zaha for a while? He's off now anyway.

Wouldn't just be since Jose. United always had that. Arsenal used to have it.

Baiily just back from an injury and one of their most important players,they probably didnt want to take any chances.

Neither are Ivory Coast players though. I'd imagine it's the national teams FA that make the call.

Im sorry but I had to quote this, from Tommy Docherty about Mourinho -
“He’s done okay but if he were made of chocolate he would eat himself,” he said.

He slammed Utd a bit today, something about having to pay for tickets or something... but very wrong of him to say how Chelsea and City behave like "big clubs". Yeah big Saudi oil money and Russian gangster money is the way for a 'big club' to behave Tommy.......

Tbf he sounds like a drunk lad in the boozer with a chip on his shoulder

Look at the money he’s spent. Fergie sold Pogba for about a million quid and they then paid about £900million to get him back.

That was good business, wasn’t it?

He doesn't even know that Pogba wasn't sold at all. He left on a free.

Jayop

Hardy Jose's fault that Pogba left the club at the end of his contract years before he signed as manager.

Flint Fredstone

Ha ha. Bitter about not getting free stuff :pac:

Update on yesterday's post...



...It's been a massive December run for the team. The table below is from before the match v Everton, before this important Christmas run began...






The current table...



Still 6th, but...

- At least 1 point gained on Spurs, possibly more depending on Wednesday's result.
- At least 4 points gained on Arsenal, possibly more depending on tomorrow's result. 6 points gained on Arsenal
- 7 points gained on City.
- 5 points gained on Liverpool.
- Gap between United and 2nd now 5 points, down from 10.
- Gap between United and 4th now 1 point (could be 4 tomorrow if Arsenal win), Gap to Top 4, 2 points down from 8.

Ah lads. If any of you need a good bellyache laugh have a read at the last few pages of the United thread on RAWK.

This one ticked me very much given the cockyness and the absolute conviction they'd beat Sunderland.

Must be frustrating as **** that even when they hit a run of form, literally everyone else in the top 6 can't stop winning. Even Spurs.

Even if they were to go unbeaten right up to our match, and then beat us, we'd still have essentially a 5 point gap - accounting for our goal difference.

BMMachine

why are you visiting Liverpool fan forums?
Oh right to find cringey threads and then laugh at them because you are obviously better and need to prove that.


But yeah Docherty sounds a bit old and dothery there. Might as well have called the article "Old Man yells at Cloud"

But United did get about million pound for him though. Was decided by a tribunal I believe. 800k I think It actually was .

Who said it's a competition? Honestly I don't know what your problem is.

Are you honestly telling me you've never popped into the thread here of a rival team and found something they said funny? If you haven't then fair enough, if you have then you're being a hypocrite of epic proportions.

In fact, just posting the way you've done then crying about "winning at fan forums" is massively hypocritcal in itself. You're here trying to say I'm saying something stupid on a football forum because I said I laughed at something funny on a football forum.

Take a look at yourself kiddo.:rolleyes:


edit: Ah he's a Liverpool fan, reading the United thread, complaining about someone reading a Liverpool forum. Brilliant.

jayo26

I couldn't stomach reading crap talk from unmoderated guys like that. Bit of banter in pub is great crack but disillusioned bullsh1t like that make you want to poke your eyes out.

Anyways enough about a liverpool fan giving out in the united thread about a united fan reading a liverpool thread.

Jose wants Diarra and Schneiderlan could go to Marseille in a swap deal(cash + Lass , though they never happen). Crazy to think Lass is only 31, thought he was much older

DM_7

A loan swap deal?

All I can think of when the fans of those lot come in here..

Dunno, this is the translation

Info: Man Utd look to reconnect for a transfer of Lass. Interest of Mourinho and nego with OM for Schneiderlin can facilitate

Always found Tommy Docherty a gobsh!te.

Reckon the Giroud celebration says a lot about Wenger. Couldn't imagine a player under Fergie or Mourinho doing that.
