    Not even in the door of OT and he's winding up Pool fans. Fantastic.

    He's made some brilliant tactical calls this tournament it must be said, that can't be argued with regardless of your club persuasion.

    Who is he winding up. Do you not feel maybe utd fans are hyping the man up so much they are going very disappointed if he doesn't win the league.

    Title challenge talk is seriously premature considering the changes going in at the club IMO.

    Getting back into the top 4 on the other hand should be very achievable.

    Not if the anomaly was finishing 7th...

    United are 11/2 to win the title...think I'll take a slice of that.

    Interesting that Liverpool are 15/2.

    Anything above seventh will be seen as a step forward. Top four will be the aim and hopes.

    Hes winding you up badly judging by your laughable comments on both threads. Relax kid! World Cup only comes round every 4 years. You have the next 4 years to hate on United when it's over

    None of us have any ideas above our station about winning the league next season. But a move into the top four next season followed by a title challenge the following season is certainly attainable.

    And you know well who he's winding up given their need to come into this thread and try talk him (and his balls) down. Not going incur the wrath of mods by going any further.

    Utd were champions 2 years ago and now with a tactical genius in charge, he has to be challenging.

    I personally believe we will be. I believe last year was an abnormality.

    At the same time, I think we have to have realistic expectations. We have a new manager coming in after our worst ever season, with multiple players to blend into the squad.

    Expectations are not limits. Would rather hope low and be pleasantly surprised, than set stupidly high expectations and get frustrated with second cause I wanted first....

    You also have to consider Moyes destroyed the team. It will take LVG time to get the teams confidence back and rebuild the team

    Where it gets interesting is;

    Who starts the semi?
    The keeper who's confidence is likely dented?

    Also worth mentioning, 1 of the 2 penos he saves was a shocking peno.

    Yep, Cillessen's fcuked. Look at him, he couldn't even....
    Oh....

    Personally think it was an amazingly brave call for a manager, and obviously a GK coach to make.
    That GK coach? Frans Hoek.
    ...

    Yep, he's coming with van Gaal too. We're in good shape.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,475 ✭✭✭Zico


    It's great to have a manager that strikes such fear into the enemy again. He hasn't even taken a training session yet and they're dribbling all over themselves in panic. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    copper its junior b not senior stay up and watch it lol

    We take our Junior B very seriously! We were training at 8 this morning :mad:
