The whole post is what Reddit would term as a 'crappost' replacing crap with something ending in T. It's all sarcasm and for nothing other than comedy relief.
He's still Brendan Klopp though.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
The comeback is certainly underway but an away goal will flatten them here. Still a hard task this. One away goal will see them needing to take the score to 5-1.
Arsenal also playing, anything but a win again would surely seal their CL fate.
Isco scores, brutal. 3 goals needed again for Atletico as they start all over.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
Rafa Benitez plans 10 year Newcastle stay.
Conspiracy here: I get a feeling Mike Ashley is using every inch of this to finally sell the club. Benitez, big money etc. He's going to throw down a massive set of dice, spend big and get Newcastle where they need to be in order to recoup the money he's spent overall. Obviously that's not a bad thing because it's the best possible advert you could deliver.
On the other hand, Ashley is supposedly delighted at the way things are unfolding and hopes to finally restore the ties he had with fans at both home and away games and become the supporter style owner he was first known for... In geordie terms, the fat guy that downed the pint on TV at the Emirates. Then lied and said it contained no Alcohol: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/e...ne/7592350.stm
We're also set to confirm our sponsor, which is supposedly another club record deal, supposedly a Chinese Betting firm offered big money on the basis Newcastle were promoted. It comes after Newcastle themselves failed to re-acquire Brown Ale as a sponsor in a move to please fans. There is no deal for stadium rights and they weren't offered any as Mike Ashley claims to have learned from his mistakes and no such deal will be in place again.

Squeaky bum time at Old Trafford tonight, thank goodness that Man City reject balls it up at the death.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
Not trying to be super critical but that was one of the worst United performances I've ever seen given the team they played.
A bottom half Spanish team out-possessed United for an entire game at Old Trafford. What? More shots too. Absolute madness. They can not play like that against Ajax.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
A typical United home performance this season, to give Celta Vigo their due they are not that bad a side. Their league position is in no small way due to them prioritising both the Europa League and the Spanish Cup. They knocked Real Madrid out of the Spanish Cup and earlier in the season beat Barca 4-3 at Camp Nou. They have been resting six or seven first choice players for months now, hence the lowly league position.
All in all a very sloppy display from United I will agree.

I agree with henning berg, 10 years ago this season would've been a disaster for Utd, the quality of trophies being won or competed for is their new level

In fairness to Mourinho (who I still say is a better choice than Monkey Moyes and Louis Van Help) he's doing his best with a squad that was neither his choice or could quickly adjust to his style and tactics.
I don't care if this isn't what United fans would have said 10 years ago, I say *everything* is pinned on the Europa final. Word is many of JM's targets during the summer and January would otherwise seriously consider signing for United but were put off by the possibility no CL action for at least another season.
We won't qualify through the league so this is our only hope. If United win will I be happy? Absolutely so but not due to them getting the trophy - I'll be stoked that JM will then have the prospect of CL football to tempt more of the world class players we need and deserve.

Thankfully they got through although the shenanigans near the end were unedifying to say the least.

Good to see you Russ, denphone said you were the new BB King but I told him not to be so mean and you get what you deserve generally, interestingly though other than this season and last the only thing winning this competition would get you was entry to the super cup

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
I think that Ref Oliver was wearing Blue tonight.
Then we had the idiot Chelsea Fans run on the pitch to waste time - that's why we had the extra five minutes.
But there again Chelsea won the title in there normal fashion by cheating.
I have seen better acting for diver at the nearest swimming pool.
Next season it will be us
