Man United v Newcastle 5:30pm 6/10/18

I would imagine it'll be a surreal atmosphere at OT today. I think we'll be Benitez'd today, either that or the players show up.

It should be 3-0, if they turn up. I just got a horrible feeling Benitez is going to try and piss on this as hard as he can for obvs reasons.

Who's going to make the tea now?

Mourinho:

“It wasn’t the substitutions that won the game – it was the desire, mentality and commitment. This is not about me, this is not about the players, this is about the club, and in the second half the players gave absolutely everything. Nothing more to give.

“I am 55 years old, I am mature, I can cope with it and live with being hunted. I think some of the boys are not coping well with it. The way they started the game was panicking (sic). I thought at some moments we could score in our own goal. It’s not easy for them.

“For me it’s not easy too but I think life is made of experiences and some are new and some are déjà vu. This is new but I think it makes me a better manager and a better person because I understand things in human nature… the industry I work in is different, a lot of wickedness, too much wickedness in something that should be beautiful.

“I cope with it, with some sadness, but I’m a big boy. Clearly some of the boys... Marcus Rashford was sad on the pitch, Scott McTominay was scared on the pitch. All the players committed mistakes that were not normal. I think at half-time we had a good conversation.

“We didn’t promise to each other that we were going to win the match, but we promised we were going to give absolutely anything – without any fear, without any pressure. Just give everything, and they did. I don’t want to say we were lucky because we fought so much for that. Even if we don’t score the last goal, the feeling would be positive. Nobody can promise to win matches but a professional should promise to give everything.

“It’s ridiculous talk [that the players aren’t playing for him] – they don’t play for the manager, they play for the club. It’s not about that. What I asked the players is to give absolutely everything. We had little tactical touches of course, we risked a lot - we were trying to find the best way to play.

“In the end we won the match and I think we deserved to win. I think the fans deserved to win. At 2-0 at half-time, with all the dynamic of the man-hunting, I think they behaved amazingly well for the team. This is what a football club is.

“As a friend of mine was saying to me this morning, If it rains in London tomorrow, it’s my fault. Brexit, it’s my fault. I have to be ready for this. There is a lot of wickedness and a clear manhunt. It’s my life, it’s the life I love, it’s the life I’ve worked for since I was a kid, and I will love it until my last day."

Cunt just can’t help himself

First half was the usual cowardly shite tactics from Mou.
Second half in the last 30, we through everything at them and it paid off.

Players do care just not for the game plan.
