I posted this for the first United goal:-
I can't believe how much space and time Rashford had to put that cross in, the Everton players never went near him, he had time to bake a cake.
For their second all need to do is change the name to Fernandes and cross to shot.

I can't believe how much space and time Fernandes had to put that shot in, the Everton players never went near him, he had time to bake a cake.

We've made some monumental fuck ups over the years but not buying Fernandes stings. Instead we've got Lo Celso who just sits injured constantly.

I know it's said alot but it's so true. Let's face it Lo Celso has been a massive disappointment so far expecially when you have to sit and watch Fernandes drag united up the league. He would have been the perfect Eriksen replacement, I'm not really sure what happened. Unfortunately I think Levy is obsessed with investment signings and the fact that Lo Celso was younger probably tipped the balance.

Bruno is obviously amazing, but please, please stop. The past is in the past and gio is who poch wanted. It’s not levys fault. No one in their right mind would make the same decision in hindsight, but it’s time to let it go. In fact the time to let it go was as soon as he went United. Not our player, end of. Admire his brilliance, hate him because he’s one of the best in the world at a rival club, be jealous we don’t have him, but let the past stay in the past. I hate everyone bringing summer 2019 up whenever Bruno even touches the ball.

Also as talented as Lo Celso is he’s not a fighter, when you have vocal aggressive player with heart and the talent like Fernandes or Grealish they’re the complete player, Lo Celso I can’t ever see being that.

Regardless of Fernandes or Grealish tearing things up Lo Celso has been a disappointment for sure. Plenty of time to turn into a good player for us but the early signs are very concerning.

Not sure who we all want to win this one, my choice is United. We're never catching them anyway, Everton are more of a threat to us getting top 4, no matter how slim the chances are!

Every time i watch Fernandes i hate Levy that much more. Should’ve sent the fucking money. Had 2 chances. Cheapskate.
At the time, we were linked with Lo Celso, N'Dombele and Fernandes, and the latter was the one I didn't want. Shows what I know!

Another thing I hate when people talk about Bruno is, however fair and natural it is to compare the two, is use it as further proof to put gio down and discredit him. 99% of midfielders in the world look like shit compared to fernandes. Gio carried us for large parts of last season, and he was crucial in the squad this season when tanguy couldn’t complete games/Jose didn’t trust tanguy. He’ll be crucial when he comes back from injury too, and maybe he’ll shine even more if allowed to play with tanguy in midfield as Jose hinted at.

I think most were thinking the same – “it’s the Portuguese league” etc.

Either way it’s done – he’s a fantastic player and a great addition to the league. I hate him.

Or the Argentinian manager who was obsessed with signing Argentinian players.


Oh no wait, it's a regret - must be Levy's fault!
