Despite all this negativity, I've been very impressed by Onana so far, has the right attitude and the leadership qualities we need in goal.

Sooo after letting things settle…

I’m really tired of the “he’s playing out of position” excuse for Rashford, he’s arguably a worse player when he’s on the wing. When he’s up top he’s more of a non-factor, when he’s on the wing and he isn’t scoring goals, he’s an actively awful contributor to the team.

His 3 month purple patch last year is largely the reason we’re playing CL football this year but idk, we should’ve engaged with PSG more seriously when they wanted him.

I’m also getting tired of Bruno. People always talk about his big chance creation (and apparently we’re third in the PL for it this year already) but like where are they actually…? All the blame usually goes to our front three but I’m starting to think there’s a flaw with the stat itself, or at least how it’s used in relation to the chances Bruno creates. He has far more stinkers than he does good games, but he’ll light up every other game with an unreal pass that makes everyone (even me) go “OMG LOOK HOW GOOD HE IS”… it happened yesterday, but the overall game from him was poor. I genuinely think Mount had a better one, but he’s the one getting pelters this morning.

One is on a brand new 300k+ a week contract and the face of the team… the other is the newly appointed captain. Just an awful situation to be in.

Rant over lol.

Very interesting that they are getting rid of Mason anyway, yet make the point he didn’t do what he was charged of.

Makes you wonder what the club were made aware of.

the whole statement is we would have kept him but he wants to leave

which is bad enough and even worse when you realise that even that is bullshit

F*** it I'm gonna say it on camera, I think Richard Arnold was worse for us than Woodward

My top 4 predictions:

1- City: It's City

2- Liverpool: Provided they manage to stop being such a sieve defensively, they have the highest celing out of any PL club imo. Attack is so class and a Mac Allister - Szoboszlai - Caicedo midfield is nothing to bristle at.

3- Arsenal: They have quality but I don't think they're mentally equipped for another title race. Arteta doesn't move me much outside of his Guardiola impression mode.

4- United: Clearly improved but they've still got a long way to go. Goal scoring not reliable except for Rashford and they've got both a lower ceiling and floor than some of the other teams swarming around them. They were a bit lucky to finish 3rd last year, they ranked 6th in xG and GD differentials and that's with Pool, Chelsea and Tottenham all having down years.

As for the UCL I truly don't see Madrid winning it again. As things stand they don't have a proper 9 or a GK (both positions were instrumental in their last UCL win lol). Probably City again or Bayern.
