I wish I had stars, there are few people that crash this board that I would willfully Ignore. But then again, I do crash other boards willfully as well.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Attaboy Afro. Attaboy.
Away at Blackburn in the next round of the FA cup.
Fosu-Mensah may be my favorite name in the EPL. So much fun to say.
Lot of pints dropped today by the top clubs, win tomorrow and United will be 2 points behind Liverpool for 4th and only 3 points behind 2nd.
Big 3 points tomorrow at home v. Hull.
Big 3 points tomorrow at home v. Hull.
if we can't take all 3 points today from the bottom team in the league (yes, I realize they beat us last week in the cup draw) we don't deserve a top 4 finish regardless
Lineup against Hull: United: De Gea; Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Blind; Carrick (c), Herrera; Mkhitaryan, Pogba, Rashford; Ibrahimovic. Substitutes: Romero, Smalling, Young, Lingard, Mata, Martial, Rooney.
Bailly is back from ACN but didnt make the squad.

This team is really right side dominant in its play. 90% of balls go up the right hand side with Valencia and Mkhi (or Mata if he is there) making overlapping runs and then crosses in. Today Rashford is on the left and for all his speed he cant use it if the ball is on the far side.
because there is no real LB. Blind doesn't do much getting forward. Valencia on the right is very active getting forward which helps. According to the game tracker, it is 52% middle, 33.6% right, and 14.4% left.
Pretty lackluster first half, our inability to finish chances is extremely frustrating given the talent on the roster
Case in point
oh my....
Thats an awful challenge by the Hull forward who is already on yellow.
second nasty challenge since he picked up his first yellow. Niasse should have been shown the door by now.
Another GK who makes another stone cold save. Its been a trend.
who needs a GK when you have the post...
holy hell. wide open hull player who had way too much time to think about it and manages to strike the post square on.
Hull is deliberately shanking a ball around instead of setting a free kick
Hull players are flopping all over the place, grabbing their heads for a head injury stoppage.
This game might have been more frustrating than the Burnley match. What a pathetic showing at home, AGAIN
another great chance by Hull... lucky not be down by at least 1....
Another good save by the Hull GK
And another save
what a waste of a chance to gain points on the leaders... bleh.....
Dropped points after dropped points. Pretty sad...Hull truthfully should've won with the shot off the bar!
We suck again.....that was dismal.
This team is so slow collectively that any team can just pack it in defensively and that makes it so difficult to score.
Lets be honest, thats what Arsenal saw and the same for Spurs. Bad bottom feeding teams that just play for ties. If you can nick a goal early they have to come out of their shell and play. If not they just sit back and absorb pressure and hope for a counter. That style of soccer sucks. But it keeps teams from relegation I guess.

Must. Take. 3. Points.

Amen
Good guys look like chit! Can't string together 2 passes without giving it up.
Mata lucky not to see red there
The speed on the sides has been equalized now with Valencia/mata on the left and Rojo/Mkhi on the left but it's been neutralized with Zlatan playing deeper
And we are lucky to be playing a full 11. That's a typical EPL yellow for a red card anywhere else.

Finally some good chances.
