    Am I not allowed to raise a little cartoon eyebrow, no?
    If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?

      United was awful. Too defensive playing at home...Love it.

        He'd be great in a 4-3-3, or perhaps used in the No.10 role, but they've got Phil Mitchell playing there, so all is good.

          I'll bet he isn't. He's probably wondering "****, just how bad am I if this guy is ahead of me?"

            They still won eh, so I'm not so sure he's the calamity that everyone is saying he is. It was also his first game. As I said, his ability and calmness on the ball is very good.
            Are we winning?

              Those things aren't mutually exclusive.
              Oh I don't know.

                No they're not but he's absolutely not been that poor. For a first game in English football, he was very brave to try and play the way his manager wants.

                    i was at that game today (free ticket - i wouldnt pay money to those cunts) United fans are horrible ****in cunts. You know what though, not once did they even attempt to sing anything about Mourinho. I think it will all end in tears!!!

                    Mourinho set up the team completely wrong. Fellaini and Pogba in centre midfield. ****in hilarious......

                      He was ****ing awful. Could easily have been sent off and conceded a penalty in the first half, on top of the rest which was mignolet at his worst. First game, yes, but it was a complete stinker.

                        Fact of the matter is Bravo allows the team to play the way Guardiola wants them to play. They wouldn't have dominated the first half the way they did without the building from the back. A clanger or two isn't going to overshadow his contribution to the team.

                          This. He is a new keeper to the league so will take time to adapt. But as he replaced Englands Joe Hart he is going to get slaughtered in the media for every little mistake he makes.

                            Little? He ought to have been sent off! Sure he'll acclimatise but yesterday he had a stinker as an actual keeper of the goal

                              Was a less than assured debut from the hapless Spanish glovesman. He will be targeted now for sure.
