Think he's counting the Arsenal match as a pummelling LOL

Was at Old Trafford on Sunday, went with 2 United supporting friends, one of which was given tickets to corporate level by his boss. Went to the Matchstick Man beforehand for a few pints and then up to the exclusive club (I think it was called) at about 3. Russel Beardsmore was the special guest!
Row of City fans behind me as well, was able to cheer away. No bother from anyone
 
Nice day all round.

In other words the Manchester derby is as soft as the Merseyside one.

Added the fact they play each other in pre-season now too. Football friends. Aww Heart

You telling me a football fan can ever take you's serious ever again man. Especially when Sky had Liam Gallagher was 1 of the pundits for the day in their studio to make it extra cringy - I suppose it keeps the pompous f**k away from the recording studio

It's true though. Liam atleast turned up although he was touring in Germany at the time but he had his priorities right. Noel on the other hand....

For all the plaudits that De Gea has rightly had recently for his shot stopping, I thought some of his distribution was shocking on Sunday

To be fair to Jones, I think he is a solid player. Injury prone, and not the greatest passer in the world, but a very solid defender.

Jones had a large part to play in giving away the goal yesterday, but if United were to move on CBs, I'd have him much further down the list than Smalling or Rojo.

When comparing Smalling and Jones, there is only one winner. Smalling is so bad it's scary. His reading of the game, positional sense, his passing from the back is some of the worst I've seen from a top level centre back. I really don't know what he's still doing at United.

Herrera was being compared to Kante last season. He is another player that they need to move on asap. He adds absolutely nothing to the side, no matter the standard of opposition.

Lukaku could score 25 league goals this season and I doubt he'll have been that good in the grand scheme of things. Obviously goals are important, but there are lots of really important things in a forwards play. You cannot be a top level centre froward when your first touch and link up play is that bad. He has an amazing knack of scoring goals in garbage time, he did the same at Everton at times. He's basically padding his stats. 

I'll give an example. I remember watching Everton play Hull last season live. Everton were one up, and Lukaku was non existent in general play. Did nothing to ease the pressure on defence by keeping the ball or making runs. They went 2 up with about 10 mins left. Game over. Lukaku scored 2 in injury time. Anyone not watching that game and just checking the scores would probably say 'another great game for Lukaku'. He was muck that day. As he is on many days. Top class forwards when not scoring should never be muck!! 
 
Lukaku didnt have much service yesterday to be fair to him. A non existant midfield. Pogba is badly missed.
 
About Herrera, I dont know if I would sell him but he was certainly running around yesterday like a headless chicken and I think when players are having a bad game they jump into tackels and risk red cards.
 
What about a half fit Fellanin yesterday, when Mata was dropped from the squad.
 
Cracks appearing already for Jose?
 
f**k it. Minds made up. Get rid of Herrera.
Watched him closely in games since the above and he is no where near good enough. Matic is twice the player.
Whats the point in Herrera other than to roll around like a fanny looking for free kicks?

For all the effort United went through to sign Herrera, he really is an average player.

They'd won their previous 4.

Pummeling was the wrong choice of words Big smile. 
But the number of chances that Arsenal had in that game would normallly win you two matches, and City Sunday.
