Apparently dropping 2 points against Man Utd is a sackable offence these days.

What is wrong with Man U? I can't believe that Pogba, who was one of the best players in the world during the World Cup, doesn't even get off the bench.

The post-game show was brutal afterwards. Called it 'embarrassing'.

It seems that there's more than Mourinho having lost the team - he seems to be cutting off his nose to spite his face. Is he having some sort of professional nervous breakdown?

Mourinho's Buys at Man U

466 million Euros on players yet it's not enough.

And then you have Shaquiri coming off the bench for Liverpool, and winning the game for them.

Same. Between hosting my Liverpool bud for the game, wanting Mourinho out, and having $$ on Liverpool to win the EPL, I was totally fine with the result.

Not an EPL match, but Spurs just dominated at the Emirates.

Final 4 of the Carabao (League) Cup features 3 of the top 4 in the Premier League and Burton Albion who are currently 15th in League 1.

So you’re saying it might not have been the players?

I know I. Know they played a nobody but slotting five home is good.

What a game. Tempted to say that Everton are complete and utter garbage, but Spurs played a big part in making them look that way.

What's it mean that Yerry Mina can't get in for them, because I really liked him in the World Cup? (Probably because he's tall so he stood out.)

Everton's spending in the transfer market the last couple of years has been comically bad.

Yeah, he's alright. The sort of player who belongs on a mid-table team.

But you go back a few years and guys like Bolassie, Schneiderlein, Wolcott, Klaasen, Tosun...

All 20 million pounds plus buys and they make no difference to the team.
