      Many friends disagreed with me when I said that Zlatan would score 20 easily this season, they came out with the old cliches about age, the pace and intensity of the PL, how he wouldn't have time on the ball etc….

      Zlatan game has never been about pace, it's always been about an immaculate touch, the ability to find space and absolutely sublime vision. He never wastes the ball, and is still the quickest player in the league in his thinking, a real class above.

      This is the same reason the a player like Messi will still be class long after CR7's pace has deserted him.

        Only concern people should have had about Zlatan is if he would get the appropiate service from midfield. If you give him opportunities to score, he will do it. Even better if other players can support him and take away/occupy defenders.
        I think if United dropped Roonpig, slot Mata in no.10 role and put Miki out on right wing, he would get better service.

        He's still only played 3 games (including community shield) though.

                At least it had goals in it.

                    Watching the PSG v Arsenal game with a Gooner friend tonight. Not convinced it's gonna go his/their way. Celtic could be in for a hiding too.

                        In a brilliant attempt to erase painful memories of Euro 2016, England score a blinder of an own goal….

                                Yeah, not a great finish to the match. We're still a point above you though 😉

                                Crazy amount of goals recently; the Prem last weekend, CL in the week and at St James's Park. Still not distracting enough to shift focus away from the embarrassing shambles that English football is at the moment. Who'd have thought it could possibly of got even worse than the Euros!?

                                  Football is changing, it needs a shake up, the good times could never roll on forever for the fat cats of premier league football.

                                  You guys seriously need to get shot of Bassong though, the guy is a liability.

                                    Liverpool deserved to win tonight against ManUnited. Pity it's only a draw.

                                      If I was a United fan I'd be embarrassed by that. United have never come to Anfield to play for a draw.
