McGuire has to be approaching some sort of record for most "oomph!!" plays in a single season

Sevilla [1] - 0 Manchester United [3-2 on agg.] - Youssef En-Nesyri 8'

dubz.co

The more I watch this the worse it gets. ANYONE else takes that pass and turns up field into acres of space starting the attack. But not Maguire. He panics and kicks it off the guy in front of him setting up the goal.

At this point an injured Phil Jones would be better out there.

 

[titusbramble]

lol arsenal

 

[B Maverick]

That's one way to avoid blowing a 2-0 lead...


Thanks Ramsdale for honoring De Gea and Maguire with that.

 

[B Maverick]

WOW

 

[B Maverick]

Game On!

Arsenal showing some fight

 

[AAABatteries]

Berbatov is an all-time favorite.

Loved watching that guy play.

He’s top-10 all-time United player that I loved watching and that was with limited playing time for them. Just remarkable skill for a dude that looked like Count Dracula.

Dimitar Berbatov All 56 Goals For Manchester United I 2008-2012

I wish they showed the full attack for the one at the 3:13 mark. They show Nani passing it to him just inside the box. What you don't see is the combination play between Berba, Evra in their own half, the cross ball to Nani and the full field run from Berba to get there.

 

[B Maverick]

Arsenal not ready to be champions.

 

[B Maverick]

Arsenal spursing up the title race.

City in position for 3 titles in a row and a treble, both having been done previously only by United.

 

[B Maverick]

IT'S NOT OVER! WHAT CAN ARSENAL DO IN FERGIE TIME?!?!?!?!

 

[McBokonon]

SCENES!!!

 

[B Maverick]

HOLY CRAP ARSENAL!

 

[B Maverick]

Off the bar!

 

[B Maverick]

He's not giving a PK there guys

 

[B Maverick]

Arsenal salvage a draw, so close to the win. Must beat City for sure.

 

[McBokonon]

That’s pretty much it for Southampton. Two of Leicester/Everton/Forest/Leeds will join them but I can’t see three of those making way for the Saints.

 

[titusbramble]

What a game but that's the title completely choked now

 

[McBokonon]

Bayern down 3-1 to Mainz. Dortmund can leapfrog them assuming that result holds for 10 minutes or so and Dortmund takes care of business.

Ipswich up 1-0 and currently top of the table. Need to keep the win and for Plymouth Argyle to stay in draw or lose, but those guys have been snatching victories from the jaws of defeat all season.

I bought the subscription to watch Wrexham in a couple hours. They win, they’re in.

 

[McBokonon]

2-0 to Ipswich! Chaplin on the assist from Broadhead - the latter part of their January signings who have been brilliant.

 

[McBokonon]

Plymouth take the lead because of course they do. Ipswich in second (top two get automatic promotion to the Championship) and now Sheffield Wednesday are behind! If that holds, Ipswich are 4 points better with a game in hand and only 3 more to play.

 

[McBokonon]

Wednesday pull even, naturally. Still, Ipswich basically need to win 2/3 to get the automatic promotion assuming they don’t blow this and they don’t look like they will. McKenna has these guys prepared.

 

[McBokonon]

If you’re not enthralled by these League One updates are you even alive?

 

[titusbramble]

Only one nil down to the best team in the world at half time thanks to a dodgy penno seems like a decent result

 

[McBokonon]

PAUL MULLIN BANGER! 2-1 Wrexham with 35 minutes left.

 

[McBokonon]

Another Mullin banger! 3-1! Deadpool and Mac are ****ing doing it!

 

[The Gator]

Another Mullin banger! 3-1! Deadpool and Mac are ****ing doing it!

This seals promotion right?

Yep! Final whistle!

Sweet!

Saw the final seconds on tweeter, would be amazing being there.

 

[McBokonon]

They’re trying to get the fans off the pitch so they can do the presentation. This is so awesone, so happy I bought this today.

 

[McBokonon]

3-0 Toon within 9 minutes. Jacob Murphy banging in worldies, nbd.

 

[McBokonon]

**** it, let’s get 10

Yeah, enjoy that stuff McB. Few and far between.

Liverpool put three past City in a very short timespan a few years ago and I nearly raptured. If rapturing is like hyperventilating.

 

[NewlyRetired]

is a 5-0 lead after 21 minutes an EPL record?

Nope. Second best though

@OptaJoe

Newcastle have taken a 5-0 lead within 21 minutes, the second-earliest a side has done so in Premier League history, after Man City v Watford in September 2019 (18th minute). Stop

 

[BobbyLayne]

and I was nervous about today's game

lolololol

 

[LionOfGosforth]

Eddie Howe is a genius. That is all.

Twitter:

Just a word of warning for all the fans that just started watching after the takeover: this is completely normal, we magpies are used to winning 6-1 against teams that are in the top 6, and it's very common that the first 5 goals will happen in the first 20 minutes

Spurs look like an NBA team tanking their way out of the playoffs.

 

[titusbramble]

That United back four is, for want of a better word, interesting

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Well, there's your top-4 done and dusted. Newcastle and United 6 points clear of Tottenham, with two games and a game in hand, 8/7/6 games to play.

I can’t stop watching Tottenham fans reaction live streams. The only disappointing part is literally none of them were optimistic going in.

This pass from Schar and Joelinton’s touch is just filthy: https://dubz.co/video/2ffc30

And then this pass from Willock, just ridiculous: https://dubz.co/video/534059

As I age, my favourite part of sports is watching disappointed fans.
I’m a terrible human being.

Best option. If Maguire is in there they lose 3-0. So glad he was suspended for the game. Also shows why this should be the pairing until Varane is back
Lindelof and Shaw were solid. AWB had a great day.

Tottenham v United on Thursday. Several twists to go....
