People forget that we lost a huge attacking aspect to our play (Eriksen) and we lost him 18 months ago.

Jose mentioned the Eriksen dilemma in the recent interview as well.

"If you want also the situation of a very important player like Christian [Eriksen] refusing to sign a new contract, not accepting a new contract, pushing for a transfer. Do we play him? We don’t play him? What's the best thing to do? Do we keep him until the end of the season? Do we try to sell him in January? Lots of things happened.

There's absolutely no comparison between how Chelsea are playing and the shit show we dished up.
There's losing and theres losing.
Same as a 4.4 draw against Bournemouth wouldnt have been the same as the 0.0 draw we got.

It's not that different really except that you're more emotionally attached to our performance than Chelsea's lol

Slightly OT. I do love watching SUFC travel the country f..cking teams over. Like a negative traveling circus. ?

United this season in whole competitions had 3 matches with 0 shots on target. Chelsea had one. Liverpool had one. Leicester had one. Arsenal had one. Tottenham had one.
...and there was I worrying about our place in the Big 6. We're now part of the Big Zero instead. Yay!

Why? He has Burnley playing functional football but give him a budget and he might want to change things up.

He'd have to interview well but he is strong tactically, thorough in his recruitment and not afraid to play kids who impress (Dwight McNeil the obvious recent example). All those three things would be good for us.

Plus from his appearance on Crouchy's podcast he sounds like a fantastic man manager as well.

And I hate quoting myself, but seeing the entitled crybabies in our fanbase wetting their pants over getting Sean Dyche as our manager would be worth whatever it ended up costing.

Our players would be running to levy complaining about Dyche straight off.

1 makes us train hard
2 speaks northern
3 has a shiny head

and so on.
