Lol I called a year ago+ Show Spoiler +
(and Manu fans jumped at me so hard, one guy linked Gary Linekar on twitter saying "Underestimate LVG at your own peril)
that a team whose best player for parts of last year was Ashley Young could never be relevant. I'd like to be smug and quote myself but I'll be the bigger guy here.

Haha you're kinda quoting yourself already. If you claim to be the bigger guy, you wouldn't have brought it up at all

There was veiled sarcasm in that last comment. I never intended to not be smug. The only reason im not quoting it is because im to lazy to use the search function. Plenty of Mou horny's here, should be appreciated.

It's funny, I just skipped through the Guardian live report of the Bournemouth game, and Mata is mentioned only once, when the teams are introduced. That's telling.

And the format gives the teams from group E an additional handicap:

French mathematicians have always been very skilled!

The authors of this "article" not so much though. They claim that winning 3 knockout matches is enough to win the tournament. While thats just a minor error, when they make suggestions about how to improve the knockout structure, they completely ignore most scheduling issues that their suggestions would bring along. They would make it possible for teams from the same group to meet in the ro16 or ro8. Or that a team with 5 rest days plays a team that had just 2 rest days in the ro16.
Sure there may be fairer knockout stage draws, but finding them isnt as easy as they make it sound.

Man City were so lucky against Swansea. Those Swansea fans were delirious when they equalized. I felt bad for them when City just went up the other end and scored such a lucky goal.

Why is LVG not playing Young for fucks sake, is he injured or something.


Young doesn't defend as much as the other players so too bad. Out of the team. Likewise for so many other players.

Manchester United were completely played off the field by Bournemouth who if we're honest are bascially the Burnley of this year, lot's of energy but not too much quality. United created shit all all afternon as usual and Bournemouth missed a couple of sitters whilst de Gea made a couple of good stops too. The score line if anything was generous to United.

What must be a slap in th face for United fans is for LVG to come out and say it was a good performance and his team 'showed character'.

lvg still being our manager is the biggest slap in the face. id rather trust giggs with the squad atm. ive always said lvg was shit; you can say hes laying foundations or whatever but the way he makes teams play and the way he manages his players is just shit

Wasn't there a thread on reddit few days ago which said that Group E will be the weakest group mathematically?

i beg to superman that lvg gets the boot and they bring in pep.
there seems to be absolutely nothing redeeming looking through out the past year or so we've had him that anyone else could have done.

I haven't mentioned the K-League much this year since I've been busy and it's largelly been boring. But a quick summary might be order.

Jeonbuk won the K League comfortably and the usual Pohang, Seoul and Suwon Bluewings will join them in the AFC competition. Daejon and Busan were woeful and luckily we now have relegation so it's unacceptable to have teams that bad and neither will appear in next years competition as Busan lost the playoff finals to FC Suwon.

Disappointingly Sangju (The military team (football's Airforce Ace)) won the K-League Challenge so they will be playing top flight football again next year. I say that's disappointing because though we all cheered for Airforce Ace and loved the underdogs in Esports. The reality of Sanju is that they play at a ground in the middle of nowhere with just a thousand or so fans watching and it's not really great for the Korean football to have them in the top flight. It also speaks of the weakness of the second League that the military team tops the table.

Having said that Dageu where hugley unlucky finishing on level point sand goal difference and only not getting promoted because Sanju had more goals scored for them.

FC Suwon winning the play offs and now been promoted is actually pretty awesome. They are not a big Chaebol team but are actually a community backed 'real' team. Which is great for Korean football and they need far more teams like that. Hopefully they won't get hammered too badly next season when they play against the big boys and it will be great to have a Suwon Derby. Korean football desperately needs more teams like that to start popping up.

We have a Korean player in Portugal and he's playing great.

Suk Hyun-Jun

He currently plays for Vitória de Setubal (which are 6th on the League) but he is, imho, one of the two top player of the team along with André Horta and if he continues with this performance he will go to a better club really soon.

Is he relevant at all on the Korean football Scene?

I'm torn between sticking with LVG till the end of his contract or just replacing him at the end of this season. Ancelotti will be my number one pick, great manager with PL experience. On the other hand, I don't want United to become another Chelsea/RM where we change managers every season or two and I hope LVG can turn things around,

Just in case United fans weren't depressed enough Javier Hernandez scored a hatrick this weekend. Leverkusen really smashing Gladbach. I wish I had the time to watch some of these Bundesliga games midweek like I used last year. Though I won't wish to hard for a return to unemployment.

Ozil... To think there are still some Arsenal fans that dislike him.
