How are you shaping up for next week? Don’t forget he will also need to manage a women’s team. Im busy in the gym Is that what you mean ? Oh the game. Well you will need to beat us to level it off as we stuffed your U23 last week ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course he is being paid in line with being the 3rd highest scorer in Europe over the last 8 or so years. Considering we didn't pay a fee though it's hardly a big gamble. Ole gave a lot of praise to James W-P in the post match interview, just wonder whether he could be a summer Pogba replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still prefer Firmino. Cavani is a good finisher but there is far more to Bobby's game than being a goal hanger. I am sure Salah and Mane would say the same. Regarding his 'Faux Pas' I have some sympathy for Cavani but he should be punished...as did City's Silva for a similar indiscretion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva has been suspended for one game, fined £50,000 and must undergo education after a tweet sent to Benjamin Mendy was deemed to have constituted an “aggravated breach” of the Football Association’s rules on social media behavior because it appeared to reference the French left-back’s race.

Yeah a 1 match ban and fined 50k I think it was. It was a joke between Mendy and Silva in which SIlva compared Mendy to a character of a chocolate biscuit. Mendy even testified on Silva's behalf that it was a joke between the 2 of them. The FA accepted there was no racist intent and that it was a joke between the 2 of them but because it was posted on twitter it was no longer private and some people could take offence. He didn't actually post any words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The come from the same country and are good footballers... but there the similarity between Suarez and Cavani ends. Always struck me as a big contrast even before he joined United. In light of the recent resignation at the FA, there is a pressing need for them to establish their "woke" credentials, so I would expect the worst in the matter of any punishment. Hope for common sense to prevail if you like but that is in short supply at the FA, as proven on numerous occasions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChipButty Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Manchester United will face Watford in FA Cup third round Man United have been drawn against Watford in the third round of the FA Cup. An exact date and kick-off time has not yet been set for the match but it will be played between January 8-11, 2021, and be held at Old Trafford. In a temporary rule change to prevent the football calender from getting even more packed in wake of the coronavirus pandemic, there will be no replays this season so the match must be settled on the day, through extra-time and penalties if required.

Even if the person he was responding to was not offended, others who saw the message may have been and the FA has been offended on their behalf.

And by the way, what you referred to is the n word with an 'a' not 'er' at the end. That's another big difference. I've got you down as a big gangsta rap fan Mr Boj.
