Don’t worry boys. I’m here x
18 Oct 2026 14:56:22
Interesting games
18 Oct 2026 14:56:30
coming up
18 Oct 2026 14:57:36
Only got eyes on one RM bud
18 Oct 2026 14:58:18
Depends how we set up, 3 in CM as a screen in front of the back 4 with Amad and MBueno using pace to get behind would give us a chance
18 Oct 2026 14:59:03
8-0-1 formation might hold it to a draw I reckon.
18 Oct 2026 14:59:46
Only 10 men?
18 Oct 2026 15:00:09
The first ten mins will be tasty
18 Oct 2026 15:00:16
We classing Dalot as a player ?
18 Oct 2026 15:00:22
If he is starting Bruno out wide against a Leeds team that has attacking wing backs then the game is over and so is Carrick.
18 Oct 2026 15:00:56
Off to the cleaners today me thinks
18 Oct 2026 15:01:13
Now now fizz. Let’s have some optimism
18 Oct 2026 15:01:33
433
18 Oct 2026 15:01:36
Then Dalot does that …
18 Oct 2026 15:01:37
Lol
18 Oct 2026 15:01:43
?
18 Oct 2026 15:02:07
Put it out for a gk rm
18 Oct 2026 15:02:38
? Was for the formation
18 Oct 2026 15:02:45
Bruno rw. Yikes
18 Oct 2026 15:03:00
Looks like tielemans in fact
18 Oct 2026 15:03:27
Looks like Bruno isn’t RW
18 Oct 2026 15:03:32
No striker and Bruno as false 9. Just grow some balls and drop Bruno.
18 Oct 2026 15:04:15
Strange setup fg. See how it plays out
18 Oct 2026 15:05:09
If we have 3 CM it will be better
18 Oct 2026 15:05:42
I agree on the cm. But drop Bruno and play somebody as striker.
18 Oct 2026 15:06:20
Who?
18 Oct 2026 15:06:40
Bit mental that you can call your team mates and your director crap and still start the next game
18 Oct 2026 15:06:41
Mbeumo up top. Amad RW. Cunha LW
18 Oct 2026 15:07:06
Not offensive if it’s true.
18 Oct 2026 15:07:14
Exactly Fizz. Having Mbeumo and Amad wide is perfectly sensible. Cunha LW ok but he's not playing well either
18 Oct 2026 15:08:08
Benny he didn't call the manager crap
18 Oct 2026 15:08:10
Definitely true bud. But crazy to get the start nonetheless
18 Oct 2026 15:08:18
Or his teammates
18 Oct 2026 15:08:52
Clamering for new signings infers current players are naff id say
18 Oct 2026 15:09:06
He will call Carrick crap after today’s game lol
18 Oct 2026 15:09:10
He said not enough was done. It's true. We needed fullbacks desperately. That can be true and still think the players signed were good. It's not inconsistent
18 Oct 2026 15:09:22
Carrick is crap!
18 Oct 2026 15:09:30
I don't understand why a scouser has so much interest in United,it's weird
18 Oct 2026 15:09:44
Its fun x
18 Oct 2026 15:09:56
Rent free AJH
18 Oct 2026 15:09:59
An I’m no scouser I thank you.
18 Oct 2026 15:10:02
You Scouse benny?
18 Oct 2026 15:10:18
Ok, a Liverpool fan
18 Oct 2026 15:10:24
No mate I’m not on welfare
18 Oct 2026 15:10:31
yes ajh ??
18 Oct 2026 15:10:31
I thought he was an Arsenal fan
18 Oct 2026 15:10:41
Brilliant benny!!
18 Oct 2026 15:10:43
That’s offence DR
18 Oct 2026 15:10:52
That's malaga
18 Oct 2026 15:11:12
Ah yeah. Gooner gives it away!
18 Oct 2026 15:11:34
I just lump all those folk in together anyway
18 Oct 2026 15:11:46
Truth is shappy hides in the WhatsApp group during United games. So I come here to get a glimpse of him.
18 Oct 2026 15:11:59
Afternoon gents
18 Oct 2026 15:12:15
?
18 Oct 2026 15:12:35
?
18 Oct 2026 15:12:40
Plus it’s nice to see some United fans with common sense after having to listen to shappy throughout the week
18 Oct 2026 15:12:47
?
18 Oct 2026 15:13:06
Hi ken
18 Oct 2026 15:13:11
Are his whatsapp messages as long as his posts?
18 Oct 2026 15:13:23
your mate benny the ref is in
18 Oct 2026 15:13:28
Brighton 3 up in 10 mins
18 Oct 2026 15:13:41
I’d say shorter, but the same nonsense
18 Oct 2026 15:13:46
Hi fizz.
18 Oct 2026 15:13:52
What a goal for Brighton
18 Oct 2026 15:13:55
?
18 Oct 2026 15:14:11
Wow just seen it
18 Oct 2026 15:14:30
Playing well they are
18 Oct 2026 15:14:33
Wow. Unreal
18 Oct 2026 15:14:37
Benny will be on ref watch soon enough?
18 Oct 2026 15:14:56
Hurzeler is impressive
18 Oct 2026 15:14:57
Anyhoo, we've started better
18 Oct 2026 15:15:13
Much better midfield.
18 Oct 2026 15:15:16
Liw bar...
18 Oct 2026 15:15:18
Was nice to see Keane etc agree with me about that push from shaw. I shan’t gloat though x
18 Oct 2026 15:15:23
Low
18 Oct 2026 15:15:26
Wait for it
18 Oct 2026 15:15:31
Hurzeler the real deal. But Brighton really are strong because they pay attention to the overall metrics rather than immediate results. Drives me mad how shortsighted we've been
18 Oct 2026 15:15:51
Our midfield is better than Brighton's Ken. It's a set up issue
18 Oct 2026 15:16:13
Keane is often wrong Benny!
18 Oct 2026 15:16:16
In what world DR? Player for player ?
18 Oct 2026 15:16:33
Absolutely Benny. Leave the bias behind
18 Oct 2026 15:16:50
Ouch
18 Oct 2026 15:16:56
I’m rarely bias but I find that a crazy claim mate.
18 Oct 2026 15:17:05
Bruno is such a knob
18 Oct 2026 15:17:20
Gross and ayari are ballers.
18 Oct 2026 15:17:21
I don’t think it’s a much better midfield. The system is pushing Dalot up to left mid, and forcing Baleba to play lb
18 Oct 2026 15:17:43
Bruno red card incoming
18 Oct 2026 15:17:50
Bruno is going to get himself sent off
18 Oct 2026 15:18:10
Yep
18 Oct 2026 15:18:12
Tielemans, Baleba, Santos, Mainoo all would be regular starters for Brighton. Crazy to say they've a much better midfield. Just crazy
18 Oct 2026 15:18:13
He is not captain material
18 Oct 2026 15:18:26
Bruno wide makes no sense.
18 Oct 2026 15:18:36
He’s not wide
18 Oct 2026 15:18:39
He's not wide Rohan!
18 Oct 2026 15:18:54
Once again massively disagree DR
18 Oct 2026 15:19:10
Doubt we'd agree on anything benny
18 Oct 2026 15:19:30
Proof is in my favour though ?
18 Oct 2026 15:19:36
Hardly
18 Oct 2026 15:19:51
Are they doing red card checks today
18 Oct 2026 15:20:01
That’s the problem. If Bruno is going to play centrally, then you can’t have Tielemans there too. Completely unbalanced system.
18 Oct 2026 15:20:09
So you think tielmans santos maino get into Brighton right now?
18 Oct 2026 15:20:11
Won’t we don’t need is a Leeds red card. We all know this lot crumble against 10 men
18 Oct 2026 15:20:28
??
18 Oct 2026 15:21:14
Benny this is my issue with your arguments. It's all short termist with no strategy in building a team
18 Oct 2026 15:21:38
You don't build a team for 10 games.
18 Oct 2026 15:21:54
Short term? Brighton have been a better team for the last 5 years
18 Oct 2026 15:22:11
How many seasons have they finished ahead
18 Oct 2026 15:22:12
We are more solid in MF but don’t look like scoring do we
18 Oct 2026 15:22:37
If anything’s short term, it’s United new manager bounce they have once a season
18 Oct 2026 15:22:49
Somebody should gag Bruno to stop him going on at the ref
18 Oct 2026 15:23:11
I like Brighton. I used to live near there and went to a good number of their games. I think Tony Bloom has built them the right way
18 Oct 2026 15:23:32
Yes I agree on that benny but you keep conflating things
18 Oct 2026 15:23:41
If either of you knew what you were taking about or had any expertise you would be making a living out of it. Just Everitt your 2 non experts taking about something of which ye no little
18 Oct 2026 15:24:05
I do Ken. And I do make a living out of a very related area
18 Oct 2026 15:24:06
?
18 Oct 2026 15:24:12
Oh Ken’s getting no attention so puts others down. A tale of time.
18 Oct 2026 15:25:01
Benny i rarf out rowd at you. Pot/kettle
18 Oct 2026 15:25:01
I'm not you have opinions butb they are no more valud than asking a random person in a supermarket.
18 Oct 2026 15:25:11
Ly
18 Oct 2026 15:25:21
Getting deeper and not sure that’s a good idea
18 Oct 2026 15:25:53
I've multiple links in the area of data science at a few EPL clubs. A bit beyond that in fact. I do actually know what I'm talking about on that.
18 Oct 2026 15:26:08
You never answered my question benny, why are hanging out here?
18 Oct 2026 15:26:18
My opinion is that the midfielders for Brighton are better than those of United. Dr disagrees. My opinion is backed by performances over long periods of time. We can have our chat, we don’t need you putting people down ?
18 Oct 2026 15:26:28
Dalot is probably one of the mister hatful players we have ever had. He tried hard but really is painful to watch in nearly everything he does
18 Oct 2026 15:26:29
They aren't benny.
18 Oct 2026 15:26:41
Playing with no central striker at this point. 4-6-0 formation.
18 Oct 2026 15:27:06
Just joking. Agree with your point above. Ease up Ken
18 Oct 2026 15:27:10
Yeah danny very odd
18 Oct 2026 15:27:12
That’s fine DR. We can disagree. I won’t put you down like grumpy old bollocks lol
18 Oct 2026 15:27:44
Has to hit target
18 Oct 2026 15:27:51
Hahaha. I like Ken. Gives curmudgeon cuddliness vibes
18 Oct 2026 15:27:59
Should score there
18 Oct 2026 15:28:11
Good move though
18 Oct 2026 15:28:13
But that I the exact reason we needed a striker
18 Oct 2026 15:28:13
Streams gone down. Who missed ?
18 Oct 2026 15:28:21
Stream, I meant sky ?
18 Oct 2026 15:28:25
MBueno
18 Oct 2026 15:28:37
Mbeumo. It was a decent header but off target
18 Oct 2026 15:28:59
Oh yeah. You gotta hit the target. Unchallenged.
18 Oct 2026 15:29:04
How the **** do you miss that?
18 Oct 2026 15:29:16
Ah it wasn't that easy
18 Oct 2026 15:29:28
We're better today than we have been
18 Oct 2026 15:29:59
Maybe not to score, but defo easy enough chance to work the keeper
18 Oct 2026 15:30:05
It was a free header, unmarked in the box
18 Oct 2026 15:30:30
He has only ever scored 1 header. That effort explains that stat
18 Oct 2026 15:30:33
Yep fair enough. But the aim is to score, not work the gk
18 Oct 2026 15:30:36
Goal os 8 yds wide
18 Oct 2026 15:31:41
Call it 24 feet RM. Sounds worse then.
18 Oct 2026 15:31:52
That position is a 20% xG. So it's not that unusual not to score
18 Oct 2026 15:32:16
XG? Lob’s
18 Oct 2026 15:32:45
Will never understand xg.
18 Oct 2026 15:32:53
XG is what an average player in the league would do given the same chance. Some of you just don't understand it
18 Oct 2026 15:33:17
It’s bollox
18 Oct 2026 15:33:19
Maguire from 10 yards has to be a different expectation from say Isak from 10 yards. Makes no sense
18 Oct 2026 15:33:20
Dalot is the inverse Denis Irwin. He’s nearly good at most parts of playing football, but not actually good at any of them
18 Oct 2026 15:33:24
Yeah, we're all thick
18 Oct 2026 15:33:38
I understand it and its not fsvtual its opinion bars on sets of data that are not comparable
18 Oct 2026 15:33:46
Based
18 Oct 2026 15:34:12
He is a waste of space danny that's what he is
18 Oct 2026 15:34:31
Didn't say that AJH. Though some are! I mean that anyway thinking it's used in isolation is ridiculous. It's an additional, and useful, way to get better overall context
18 Oct 2026 15:34:40
Yes. Understand how it works. Don’t understand why it’s a thing when there’s so many variables. It’s dumb.
18 Oct 2026 15:34:49
We've made Mbuemo worse
18 Oct 2026 15:35:11
It's why Brighton are so much better than comparable sides with that budget
18 Oct 2026 15:35:21
Yes
18 Oct 2026 15:35:24
Boooom
18 Oct 2026 15:35:27
Well deserved
18 Oct 2026 15:35:37
Good break and runs
18 Oct 2026 15:36:01
XG??
18 Oct 2026 15:36:12
It's very good. Licha bringing them all together!!!
18 Oct 2026 15:36:14
Santos and baleba more solid they were decent in madrid too
18 Oct 2026 15:36:15
Never doubted him ?
18 Oct 2026 15:36:27
Not sure about deserved Ken based on a scrappy 35 mins. But a good goal
18 Oct 2026 15:36:36
Now we sit back and get mullered
18 Oct 2026 15:36:40
Baleba looks good tbh
18 Oct 2026 15:36:47
Definitely deserved benny. We've been the better side
18 Oct 2026 15:37:01
I think its deserved ask someone else they may feel not
18 Oct 2026 15:37:08
Mbuemo is playing out of position because the club thought it was perfectly reasonable to go into the season with one striker that was injured for the entire summer. Mbeumo is one of the players that’s doing a good job
18 Oct 2026 15:37:15
4 shots to 1 away from home
18 Oct 2026 15:37:16
Better with his left than his head though ?
18 Oct 2026 15:37:39
So does santos redman he needs games before writing him off
18 Oct 2026 15:38:33
Wouldn’t say you deserve a lead purely because of more shots dr. The other 3 could have been pot shots from 40 yards lol
18 Oct 2026 15:38:39
Yep that's it Ken. Baleba and Santos are young and have lots of promise. It takes time to settle.
18 Oct 2026 15:38:54
Hopefully spikes some life into the game ?
18 Oct 2026 15:39:35
Stream dropped ?
18 Oct 2026 15:39:35
90% of people thought we would be out fight out worked and out players in midfield today's not been the case so far
18 Oct 2026 15:39:41
Ok benny xG 0.66 to 0.14. So definitely better and possibly enough to be ahead. Glass half full or empty
18 Oct 2026 15:40:27
Calvert Lewin is such a good player. If he didn't keep getting injured he'd be top notch
18 Oct 2026 15:41:07
Good free transfer for them
18 Oct 2026 15:41:34
By your own logic dr, a 0.66% xg means you shouldn’t have 1 goal…
18 Oct 2026 15:41:34
Trans
18 Oct 2026 15:41:56
Its a nonsense metric
18 Oct 2026 15:41:57
Nonsense. You clearly don't understand it
18 Oct 2026 15:42:06
It isn't Ken.
18 Oct 2026 15:42:13
It's nonsense in isolation
18 Oct 2026 15:42:13
I so understand it very well
18 Oct 2026 15:42:17
1% mean you’re expected 1 goal
18 Oct 2026 15:42:25
Ok. Doesn't appear like it
18 Oct 2026 15:42:55
Like teligion. It’s bollox
18 Oct 2026 15:43:19
Imaginary
18 Oct 2026 15:43:23
You can't call it nonsense and then question why Brentford, Brighton, ... all recruit better than we do
18 Oct 2026 15:43:25
It is. Its based on comparing and compiling a set of data that's in no way comparable so is flawed greatly from the outset
18 Oct 2026 15:43:43
You really haven't a clue. That isn't what is done
18 Oct 2026 15:44:02
Ah how silly of me. Brighton play good football because of xg. Nothing to do with a good coach and good players.
18 Oct 2026 15:44:11
Its exactly what's done
18 Oct 2026 15:44:43
Sack Brightons coach. Let stats and computers run them lol
18 Oct 2026 15:44:47
You can use it based on passing movements and then give a contribution per player to the overall quality. You can use it to understand out of possession ability, zones of control. So much more.
18 Oct 2026 15:45:10
Jog on fs
18 Oct 2026 15:45:15
Dr, as shankly said. You pass and you move. It’s a very simple game.
18 Oct 2026 15:45:33
Benny yet again that isn't what anyone is saying. I'm not asking you all how it works, I'm telling you. Because I know
18 Oct 2026 15:45:59
And any club who just does that nowadays benny is getting left behind
18 Oct 2026 15:46:02
I do feel bad for the time you’ve wasted studying a nonsensical system though. That’s 5 minutes you’ll never get back lol
18 Oct 2026 15:46:49
DR; luckily I have these two things in my head called eyes. I can determine a player using those. Nothing stats. This isn’t baseball pal
18 Oct 2026 15:47:37
Don’t need no algorithm to tell me Maguire is pants ??
18 Oct 2026 15:47:50
Again that attitude will get you nowhere at the top level. In Gaelic games it's used extensively too fwiw.
18 Oct 2026 15:48:28
And the models do say Maguire is pants. You don't use it is isolation.
18 Oct 2026 15:48:31
Oh a sport not watched outside of Ireland. Well in that case yeah spread the system across all sports
18 Oct 2026 15:48:33
Part time muck savages
18 Oct 2026 15:48:58
I get data being used to determine fitness, stamina and energy levels etc, but xg is a nonsense
18 Oct 2026 15:49:13
Ken I've said it before but that's incredibly insulting to so many people. You're just being a prick
18 Oct 2026 15:49:36
Agree, Fizz
18 Oct 2026 15:49:47
Most of Ireland's beat athletes play Gaelic games. You should grow up fella
18 Oct 2026 15:49:56
What’s the algorithm on Kerkez getting a second brain cell?
18 Oct 2026 15:50:19
Ken is Irish no?
18 Oct 2026 15:50:25
Fizz days can be used to improve no doubt and to spot trends and like most things the best bits are useful
18 Oct 2026 15:50:32
Kerkez and Dalot are in the extreme outlier. Hard to model their stupidity
18 Oct 2026 15:50:57
Yeah but I’ll sign Kerkez because your system says he runs up and down… you see my point
18 Oct 2026 15:51:25
To bad don. Its crap imo and even though less bigoted than before its a sham organisation imo
18 Oct 2026 15:52:06
Klopp signed players based on their backgrounds, families, careers. Salah had ****ty stats and failed at Chelsea. Your computer would say never to sign him ..
18 Oct 2026 15:53:18
And if it was that easy to use all that to sign players to play systems. Why haven’t United took Brightons analytic teams?
18 Oct 2026 15:53:38
Klopp signed players based off xG actually. Again you don't know what you're talking about. Edwards and all that group were brought in specifically because of their data analytics skills
18 Oct 2026 15:53:57
Absolutely not ??
18 Oct 2026 15:54:05
Wirtz kagawa miki san ho all players of the year with great stats but none have reproduced in different circumstances
18 Oct 2026 15:54:05
Because Brighton got theirs off Starlizard. Just look them up
18 Oct 2026 15:54:12
Fsg tried it with commoli. The old money ball nonsense.
18 Oct 2026 15:54:21
That worked well. Downing et al
18 Oct 2026 15:54:33
Ken, Liverpool stopped using the approach that gave them success in last 2 years
18 Oct 2026 15:54:56
There is s difference between xg stats and other performence based ststs
18 Oct 2026 15:55:10
Again it's not money ball. Arsenal bought a company that advanced it and base a lot of their decisions on it
18 Oct 2026 15:55:16
Edwards signed Wirtz… now contradicting yourself man
18 Oct 2026 15:55:43
There isn't Ken. It's a key part. I have repeatedly said it has to be used in context
18 Oct 2026 15:56:01
I'm not. Edwards stopped using those approaches
18 Oct 2026 15:56:23
Edward stopped using the approach just to suit your argument? What a coincidence lol
18 Oct 2026 15:56:39
Xg is not performance based stats xg is not factual its based on opinions in non comparable situations
18 Oct 2026 15:57:08
Probably developed by people who’ve never kicked a ball Ken
18 Oct 2026 15:57:35
Dr must have shares and stocks in it ?
18 Oct 2026 15:57:37
Will Spearman if you want to know is the main one at Liverpool and he was somewhat sidelined in last couple of years. Because of those who thought they knew better
18 Oct 2026 15:57:54
I don't. I've a doctorate in a related area.
18 Oct 2026 15:57:54
But you said ..
18 Oct 2026 15:58:14
“ Edwards and all that group were brought in specifically because of their data analytics skills”
18 Oct 2026 15:58:21
Lots of peeformance based stats are hugely useful. Xg does not tske into about a million variables to come up with their percantages
18 Oct 2026 15:58:22
They were
18 Oct 2026 15:58:39
Again ken you are just ignoring what I said
18 Oct 2026 15:58:43
But then you said those two went against their own system they were brought in for ?
18 Oct 2026 15:58:53
Make up your mind bud
18 Oct 2026 15:58:59
Im not don.
18 Oct 2026 15:59:12
I said Edwards did. Spearman was ignored. Edwards will be gone soon. 2+2 benny
18 Oct 2026 16:00:06
Hughes and Edwards have both left. Not sure how that’s any relevant to xg. Was them getting new jobs at 0.66% xg too?
18 Oct 2026 16:00:29
?
18 Oct 2026 16:00:34
The point of xG is to be agnostic of the other variables. That is the entire point. It is a retrospective stat. It's isn't a predictor but can be used in those models
18 Oct 2026 16:01:16
Or I could just use my eyes to determine who works hard, who’s quick, who has a first touch etc
18 Oct 2026 16:01:46
Its flawed to the nth degree as the varuable are too great to draw any meaningful conclusions which is went nobody relies on xg for decision making
18 Oct 2026 16:01:53
Ok lads have at it. I tried to explain. You really just want to think that basing decisions off more data is worse than basing it off vibes then fine. It's just incredibly silly but ok.
18 Oct 2026 16:02:25
And you are willfully ignoring that I've said many times it is not used in isolation Ken
18 Oct 2026 16:02:52
Im not don as I've ssid many times
18 Oct 2026 16:02:59
But as it kills me to agree with Ken. He’s right. If you put xg on stats on mbueno playing for leamington spa in the southern prem, he will look like Messi on your pc
18 Oct 2026 16:03:28
That's why you account for the league strength of opposition. Strength of league etc
18 Oct 2026 16:04:15
That is the context I spoke about
18 Oct 2026 16:04:48
Strength of each league changes week on week
18 Oct 2026 16:04:57
Anyway this was fun
18 Oct 2026 16:05:01
Too many variables
18 Oct 2026 16:05:28
Yes always good to hear people’s opinions and passions dr, even if it is wrong.
18 Oct 2026 16:05:53
Fair play benny. I like a heated argument. In the right spirits
18 Oct 2026 16:07:09
I don’t think it was heated. Nothing to get riled up over pal. Now let’s hope the game gets exciting.
18 Oct 2026 16:08:21
I be seen more heated arguments with a few muck savages at an u 8 gaa game
18 Oct 2026 16:09:05
More like a statistic convention
18 Oct 2026 16:09:36
Haha. Good man benny. Ken I was training an U9 game today. Was great craic. You should go to some of the go games on a Sunday morning. Great people and you might find you enjoy it
18 Oct 2026 16:09:45
Not been reading this chat and just popped on to see what everyone has thought of Baleba this game. Seems to me that he is invisible and hasn’t added much
18 Oct 2026 16:09:48
So, general consensus is that xg is bollox. Excellent.
18 Oct 2026 16:09:56
1all
18 Oct 2026 16:09:57
Shoite
18 Oct 2026 16:10:18
Cross after cross
18 Oct 2026 16:10:51
I hate it with a passion don
18 Oct 2026 16:11:13
Have Utd come out of the changing room at half time yet?
18 Oct 2026 16:11:31
It's a ridiculous viewpoint Ken for anyone that likes sport
18 Oct 2026 16:11:36
Game just got exciting
18 Oct 2026 16:11:44
Carrick had then on the zanex again mark
18 Oct 2026 16:12:07
What was the xg there DR?
18 Oct 2026 16:12:44
Fed up just fed up of this rubbish
18 Oct 2026 16:12:47
No its not Don. You don't have to like or appreciate every sport. I dislike gaa and the organisation
18 Oct 2026 16:13:25
I dislike Ireland and any sport that comes from it.
18 Oct 2026 16:13:54
Guiness though. I’ll give them that.
18 Oct 2026 16:14:08
This team are the masters of brainfart football
18 Oct 2026 16:14:24
Ok Ken but your comments go beyond that and are deliberately insulting. The GAA has flaws but it's by far the best run sporting organisation in Ireland. The FAI by comparison are a bunch of jokers
18 Oct 2026 16:14:54
We have a rb playing lb a cb playing right back and a rb playing cb(swear)
18 Oct 2026 16:15:04
Second placed best run sports organisation in Ireland is the stone skipping tournament in Kilkenny
18 Oct 2026 16:15:20
For context.
18 Oct 2026 16:15:53
What do you know about tennis ire or cricket ire or rfu. Gaa is crap imo
18 Oct 2026 16:16:04
The stats don't lie..Utd are useless
18 Oct 2026 16:16:30
The tennis ire? They finally learned how to weave nets over there?
18 Oct 2026 16:16:36
Carrick requires removing ASAP
18 Oct 2026 16:17:04
Disagree mark hughes
18 Oct 2026 16:17:10
I know people in each code that have represented the country and there is no way any of those are better run Ken
18 Oct 2026 16:17:23
Golf ire produced world best players
18 Oct 2026 16:17:38
So, xg then. What do we all think? ?
18 Oct 2026 16:17:43
Golf indeed is well run
18 Oct 2026 16:17:48
Riverdance is ok?
18 Oct 2026 16:17:57
It’s baffling Ken. It would be one thing if this weird 5-5- 0 formation was working, but to playing people out of position when Leeds are dominating is silly
18 Oct 2026 16:18:13
Get Michael flatley in charge
18 Oct 2026 16:18:42
I know how much i pour in every year to a couple of them don and i have 1st hand knowledge of all ire sporting agencies. Rowing ire world and olympic champs boxing ire the same get off your soap box
18 Oct 2026 16:18:57
We were doing well. Why did Licha come off? Maz isn't a good enough CB. Surely if De Ligt is fit enough to be on the bench he was the choice
18 Oct 2026 16:19:15
Injured don
18 Oct 2026 16:19:24
Licha
18 Oct 2026 16:19:32
Soap box derby come from Ireland too?
18 Oct 2026 16:19:34
Fair enough.
18 Oct 2026 16:20:31
Terrible game this.. zero quality
18 Oct 2026 16:20:44
But you deserved the lead you said
18 Oct 2026 16:21:08
Neville said best half United played all year
18 Oct 2026 16:21:09
Ee did doesn't mean its a good game full of quality
18 Oct 2026 16:21:38
Best sport is the bed race in Leeds. Mad stuff
18 Oct 2026 16:21:41
I can’t keep up
18 Oct 2026 16:22:07
Both teams just not showing any sort of quality
18 Oct 2026 16:22:22
Leeds are much better than us this half
18 Oct 2026 16:23:57
Currently sat on the loo Ken so I’ll take your word for it
18 Oct 2026 16:24:31
Don't forget karate kid. Wipe up wipe off
18 Oct 2026 16:25:14
Mayage san
18 Oct 2026 16:25:27
(rofl)
18 Oct 2026 16:25:30
I learnt last year some people still wipe when sat down
18 Oct 2026 16:25:46
And they looked at me like I’m the crazy one when I say you stand up
18 Oct 2026 16:26:00
Turned into the greatest debate of the 21st century
18 Oct 2026 16:27:55
Surely time for Cunha
18 Oct 2026 16:28:01
Still talking shoite bb
18 Oct 2026 16:28:15
Toilet humour
18 Oct 2026 16:28:31
Wonder who’s cornflakes Cunha pissed on
18 Oct 2026 16:29:06
Wilcox's I assume
18 Oct 2026 16:29:26
Ask xg
18 Oct 2026 16:30:24
xP?
18 Oct 2026 16:30:25
When Chelsea were 5-1 up last week their xg was 1.08 vs 1.61 work that out
18 Oct 2026 16:30:55
Did my best to divert from xg chat. I see no one took a side. Wise move
18 Oct 2026 16:31:01
Crap goalkeeping is what that would indicate GNev or pure luck
18 Oct 2026 16:31:20
Aka load of shi te
18 Oct 2026 16:31:32
Xg are opinion based stats compiled from non comparable data
18 Oct 2026 16:31:38
Who looks most likely to score on the computer dr?
18 Oct 2026 16:31:43
Gunna put £20 on it
18 Oct 2026 16:31:45
Nope not getting drawn back in. Context. Context. Context
18 Oct 2026 16:33:04
I don’t need a computer - leeds
18 Oct 2026 16:33:48
Leeds are. Home advantage gives around a 10% edge
18 Oct 2026 16:34:14
Bs if the away side is better
18 Oct 2026 16:34:22
No context required that's how xg stats are compiled. No account for too many variables which means amy assumptions on trends are greatly flawed
18 Oct 2026 16:34:22
Amad?
18 Oct 2026 16:34:51
He lacks pace among other things amad
18 Oct 2026 16:35:01
Thanks dr. If I lose this money xg is gunna have it
18 Oct 2026 16:35:01
Never rated him
18 Oct 2026 16:35:04
Don't be a dolt. Of course team strength matters. I'm saying we're right now about equal strength so home advantage is what gives the edge.
18 Oct 2026 16:35:08
Afternoon, had the match on. Dull as dishwater. Baleba looks good, not sure id take him off.
18 Oct 2026 16:35:32
Had to be fitness level
18 Oct 2026 16:35:53
Not getting dragged in DR? ?
18 Oct 2026 16:36:15
Good strike from Mount that
18 Oct 2026 16:36:27
Bruno has been shocking again not warrenting his place right now
18 Oct 2026 16:36:38
Agree
18 Oct 2026 16:36:44
You’d take grob over Bruno ?
18 Oct 2026 16:36:48
Can't help it Fizz. It's my one weakness!!!
18 Oct 2026 16:36:54
Probably play regardless based on previous merit
18 Oct 2026 16:37:06
One of * dr
18 Oct 2026 16:37:26
Ah now benny that's too close to the bone
18 Oct 2026 16:37:37
?
18 Oct 2026 16:38:48
Look at the positives. Another 90 for Dalot.
18 Oct 2026 16:38:48
Id take bruce groballar over him last few games
18 Oct 2026 16:39:19
He will play himself into form soon will Dalot
18 Oct 2026 16:40:06
Only a matter of time
18 Oct 2026 16:41:01
Bruno is done we've seen best of him well only get worse from here on in
18 Oct 2026 16:41:24
Gotta see this as a good point away from home nev. Also points you 2 points away from the relegation zone. Breathing room.
18 Oct 2026 16:42:06
What has cunha done to not get any mind for 2 games now?
18 Oct 2026 16:42:09
Leny yorro would suit a top Spanish team that has all the ball so he doesn’t get rinsed every week.
18 Oct 2026 16:42:13
Any mins*
18 Oct 2026 16:42:18
Reminds me of pique
18 Oct 2026 16:43:02
Lenny yorro reminds you of one of the best cbs la liga has ever had? Interesting
18 Oct 2026 16:43:21
When he was at utd
18 Oct 2026 16:43:44
Ah.
18 Oct 2026 16:44:00
And if pique played in a competitive league you’d change your view
18 Oct 2026 16:44:23
True. Not one where they were bribing refs
18 Oct 2026 16:45:00
Rashford coming on. He will strike confidence into the Leeds defenders
18 Oct 2026 16:45:41
Amad, permanently offside
18 Oct 2026 16:46:06
Ha ha dalot nearly did something well
18 Oct 2026 16:46:16
That could be a pen…
18 Oct 2026 16:46:23
Looked clumsy
18 Oct 2026 16:46:28
Shut up
18 Oct 2026 16:46:32
No way
18 Oct 2026 16:46:44
Headbutt him.
18 Oct 2026 16:47:07
Nonsense
18 Oct 2026 16:47:18
?
18 Oct 2026 16:47:26
Amad has been terrible. Carrick is too scared to give Lacey time
18 Oct 2026 16:47:40
Carrick looks like he just came in on an illeagle boat
18 Oct 2026 16:48:02
Take that eagle to the vet I would Ken
18 Oct 2026 16:48:06
Carrick looks surprised and confused he’s alive tbh
18 Oct 2026 16:48:18
Amad = garbage
18 Oct 2026 16:49:56
Clumsy tackle from Dalot. Var could get involved here
18 Oct 2026 16:49:59
Lucky
18 Oct 2026 16:50:01
?
18 Oct 2026 16:50:22
Shut up benny ?
18 Oct 2026 16:50:58
?
18 Oct 2026 16:51:16
You know the block feature, can we have one on live chat
18 Oct 2026 16:51:50
Harsh on Ken that red man
18 Oct 2026 16:51:57
He’s not that bad
18 Oct 2026 16:52:42
Is it 6 points in 6 or 7/7?
18 Oct 2026 16:53:09
On for 38 points Nev. good going imo
18 Oct 2026 16:53:17
Two poor, mid to low table sides
18 Oct 2026 16:53:28
Will have to get a win somewhere to hit that 40 point mark and be safe though
18 Oct 2026 16:53:55
7 in 7 and worst start since 1986. Only need another 33 points to feel safe
18 Oct 2026 16:54:01
Has to go?
18 Oct 2026 16:54:24
Give him time Nev. Rome wasn’t built in a day
18 Oct 2026 16:54:37
It's just such a level of mediocrity. But xG is crap, your eyes told you Carrick was better than Amorim etc etc. We are so poor. Just some adrenaline tbthe start made us seem better. Carrick needs to be replaced
18 Oct 2026 16:55:04
Dr your xg cost me £20
18 Oct 2026 16:55:11
Yes G Nev
18 Oct 2026 16:55:12
The only sympathy i have for Carrick is when I see such rubbish as Amad.Really poor players
18 Oct 2026 16:55:24
Shouldn’t have never fallen for the ole crap again
18 Oct 2026 16:55:33
get a proper manager in fs
18 Oct 2026 16:55:58
That's it Nev. Gave up on all the progress made. And more importantly on the culture
18 Oct 2026 16:55:59
Harsh he’s done well with the players you gave
18 Oct 2026 16:56:00
Banjoe, he could have taken Amad off and given Lacey time.
18 Oct 2026 16:56:01
have
18 Oct 2026 16:56:30
It's getting embarrassing. Carrick is like a rabbit in the headlights
18 Oct 2026 16:57:09
He's not the only problem though. The whole hierarchy are rotten to the core and nothing will change until we're rid of them all
18 Oct 2026 16:57:10
It’s getting embarrassing? Where have you heen
18 Oct 2026 16:57:19
Maybe, Redman. But I don't see Lacey turning this team around.
18 Oct 2026 16:57:24
Good win for Brighton. Shame none of their midfielders would get in at United though eh dr
18 Oct 2026 16:57:45
Banjoe, he is afraid to try anything
18 Oct 2026 16:58:05
I’m off. Have an XGcellent evening gents. Fun as always x
18 Oct 2026 16:58:31
I agree Redman, and the talk of the best training sessions this week are laughable now.
18 Oct 2026 16:58:39
RedGedge I've been here all along. I'm talking about the board and how incompetent they are to let this continue
18 Oct 2026 16:58:56
Ted, yes Wilcox as well.
18 Oct 2026 16:59:40
Wilcox, berrada, sjr and most importantly the glazers
18 Oct 2026 16:59:59
Nothing will change until the ownership does unfortunately
18 Oct 2026 17:00:00
Banjoe, best training session comment was embarrassing. What does that say about all the other sessions
18 Oct 2026 17:00:12
Nicely done benny. Enjoy the evening folks
18 Oct 2026 17:00:39
Yes Ted, we need to improve on the pitch or face a relegation battle
18 Oct 2026 17:00:58
When you see the squads of the likes of Villa, spurs, Newcastle even, they bring in 6-7 players every year, and compete. From the board to the players we lack a mentality and professional game craft, I can’t think of anything United are competent at
18 Oct 2026 17:01:36
We are incompetent with managers as well Gedge.
18 Oct 2026 17:01:38
Looking at the current state red man dare I say relegation would be the straw that finally broke the camels back
18 Oct 2026 17:02:40
That's how it's looking. There isn't any fixture that I'd say okay we'll definitely get 3 points here
18 Oct 2026 17:03:13
Ted, I kept asking who was going to score goals all damn summer. With 7 points in 13th, we need to look down with Carrick in charge.Relegation might sort the disgraceful owners out
18 Oct 2026 17:03:58
You just have to look at the full time appointment of Carrick gedge. Didn't we already try this way with ole? It's like living in a time warp lol
18 Oct 2026 17:05:13
Red man unfortunately that's the only way I see anything changing
