Man United with 81% of the ball and looking good. Who'd have thought there was grass outside your own box

Re: Season 2018/2019

Difficult to know what to say, some excellent attacking football for sure but of all the players on show I could only pick out Pogba as one player who wasn’t trying 100% for Jose. The rest of them did appear to be trying their best before today without clicking. They just seemed to be playing with a freedom and confidence not seen recently. Far to soon to herald a new dawn but it will do for starters.

Cardiff might have won 4 of their last 5 at home but the list of those teams isn’t anything to crow about, they looked very poor TBH.

Re: Season 2018/2019

Absolutely too early which is only natural but I'm also absolutely confident in saying Mourinho would've grinded out a 2-1 win with less of the ball, less shots and less risk. 17 shots and 9 on target. Absolute dominance of the ball. Again its Cardiff but again Mourinho would've still set them up to a grind out a win against a team they should steamroll. They've steamrolled them today and actually looked like Man United.

Re: Season 2018/2019

Takeover update is a simple one.

Rumours that Mike Ashley requires any new owner to keep the current sports direct advertising is seemingly untrue and rather sensationalist journalism or better termed clickbait.

What we actually know is there are 4 groups. Peter Kenyon is the furthest along and is still progressing on a deal via an American legal team with the finances being raised by Rockefeller Capital. Understanding that he's awaiting the last £100 million to complete the purchase of the club.

Gary Cook is now leading a second group. Seemingly the same way he sold Man City years ago. Thought to be American based again.

There are two more groups that signed NDA's and virtually nothing is known about them.

Its worth noting that meeting the £300 million asking price doesn't automatically fulfill the requirements of sale. Mike Ashley has made it crystal clear that he won't sell the club unless a buyer has substantial evidence they can provide massive cash investment going forward. In other words he won't sell for a like for like owner.

So whilst Kenyon may drum up the £300 million required, he won't get any further unless he can provide future investment.

Sports Neglect banners have been appearing around Sports Direct and Tube stations in London with Newcastle United above them. Currently unaware on who's putting them there but one appeared on Ashley's house. I think Newcastle United fans are actually starting to assist in the damage to his brand.

The sports direct advertising is a red herring it's peanuts to a firm to put that up and Gary Cook talked sheikh mansoor out of buying Newcastle to buy city iirc

Re: Season 2018/2019

Nothing better than a cracking dive from Salah for Christmas. No doubt Jurgen Klopp has nothing to say regarding it come the end. Naturally the referee giving it goes unpunished for his part in awarding a penalty and the cycle repeats itself. Salah should be on a two game ban after this but naturally that won't happen either.

If the authorities don't enforce the rules which they don't then the diving and simulation will continue unbounded sadly adzii.

Re: Season 2018/2019

We don't deserve anything from the game and its not a close game either. They should enforce the two game ban rule but its rarely come up this season. With the above in mind the FA will probably take no notice of it.

Pogba did a thing and Man United continue their adventure in the great lands beyond their 18 yard box. They're no longer hobbits.

Re: Season 2018/2019

Over 46,000 at a League Division one game today must be a record crowd for that division.

Found not guilty by disciplinary panel...

Re: Season 2018/2019

Was expected. Doesn't meet the threshold. That threshold being any team outside the top six.

The FA response from the Niasse penalty incident last year: “The arching of the back & collapsing of both legs, were simply not consistent with the amount of force exerted upon him by Dann & in exaggerating the effect of the contact made, Niasse deceived the ref & this led to a penalty being awarded.

I mean that's literally what just happened. He got a hand on the shoulder and his legs buckled beneath him.

God forbid we get a big name banned for diving in the Premier league. Martin Atkinson was at it too last night for Chelsea.

Re: Season 2018/2019

Steve Howey sparks frenzy with claim Newcastle will announce new ownership this coming Wednesday. This would tie in with claims that Newcastle had indeed filed for a change of ownership pre Christmas.

Simon Jordan of Palace also claims a takeover is close.

Isn't really going to matter if a deal isn't struck whilst the window is still open. The teams capability to stay up is doubtful and its also doubtful there'll be anything left to sell if it doesn't get investment in January.

While Rafa is still there they will stay up IMO.

Salah was criticised a game or two ago for not going down when he was clearly fouled and got nothing. If the defender is stupid enough to pull him back and interfere in his run it's a penalty. As it happens it didn't matter a bit as Newcastle got battered, i'd worry more about your teams form than individual refereeing decisions.
