    Re: The 2015-2016 EPL Discussion Thread

    I wonder if Klopp or Ancelotti really want to coach in the EPL that badly ...

      It's okay, I know you're incapable of acknowledging when United just don't have it at all. Maybe it's just supreme positivity?

      I was hoping for once that the United supporters on here could call it like it is, and not act as if a 3-0 loss was so close to being turned around after brilliant tactical adjustments. Every other group of supporters on here seem to have no issue saying when their side has clearly been bested.

      Maybe next time.

        Considering LVG's track record with young players, I don't think Martial will be in any danger of that. Still, this year's squad IS thin on depth so it's highly important when and where LVG rotates.
        His track record with younger players isn't THAT good. Reason I said that is because you can already see how badly they want Martial to get on the end of each ball, and you could see Martial later in the game getting exceedingly frustrated and fouling people when he lost the ball, which can happen when a player has it in their head they need to win their team the game.

          If they let Rodgers go so soon after the game I'm thinking they must have someone lined up. Who do you guys think it will be?

              I was gonna say Miguel Herrera or David Moyes, but you're probably right.

                    Klopp presser on Tuesday or Wednesday if I was a betting man. As long as FSG gets rid of that transfer committee if Klopp is going to Anfield IMHO.

                      No one here is taking credit away from Arsenal. United didn't show up to play for 25~ minutes, Arsenal did and they killed us off. It's a deserved result.

                      The only thing I pointed out was the way United played afterwards -- actually pressing the defenders like we usually do and getting possession -- and how that kind of performance from the beginning would've actually made this a match. The tactical shift to 4-3-3 also helped, as seen in the 2nd.

                      It's been 4 years since Arsenal last got a win over United in the league. Enjoy it!

                      His track record with younger players isn't THAT good. Reason I said that is because you can already see how badly they want Martial to get on the end of each ball, and you could see Martial later in the game getting exceedingly frustrated and fouling people when he lost the ball, which can happen when a player has it in their head they need to win their team the game.
                      I certainly didn't see him as being frustrated to the point of making fouls every time he lost a ball -- and that was usually around the Arsenal box. I also don't think he's being seen as the saviour; that's quite an assumption to make. Even LvG continually tells the media he's only 19 and can't be expected to be consistent week-in and week-out.

                        Yep, that's what it comes down to. Give him full control of transfers or he's not coming.

                            Don't think he cares.

                            Also, 1/10 odds from SkyBet that Klopp becomes next Liverpool boss.

                              Did i not say it was a thrashing? You can stop with the United fanbase bashing any time you want. It's getting old real fast. We all know it was a combination of a few things. Obviously with a 3-0 lead ARSEnal will park the bus and let United try to take the game to them considering there isn't much real pace from Man Yoo and they can be beaten in the counter fairly easily at times. However, come on now, these are two very good teams. Lets not make it out like we are talking about a top tier club against a 3rd division one.

                                I'll go ahead and wait for you to cite examples of when I've done so in the past. Go ahead, take your time.



                                Didn't find anything, did you? I was merely pointing out from my experiences specifically on OS that United fans are the ones who can't seem to have fun banter back and forth. Everyone's club gets smacked around now and then, some of us more than other (Arsenal), and having to take some shots on the chin is all part of that.

                                Instead of acting as if I'm committing some kind of hate crime against an entire fanbase, you could instead just bring up a fact like Leon did.

                                And then I'll say something like at least we knocked United out of the FA Cup last season. And it'll just go in circles, all in jest.
