It's no secret that Samuel Luckhurst is my mortal internet enemy. The dude SUCKKKSSS. I can't imagine someone who would be less fun at a party than this snobby pretentious organism who only manages to complain despite having what I would imagine is hundreds if not thousand's of people's dream job. Luckhurst writes with tons of …

This has been bugging me for quite some time now. Frank Lampard and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer are both in their first full seasons as managers of big Premier League clubs. At the start of the season there were questions about Solskjaer and his inexperience and.. fewer questions about Lampard and his lack of experience managing …

Just like last week I figured I'd throw down my thoughts right after the game. Compare em to a full write up later. Depth Holy hell does it make a difference. It showed in two areas, Paul Pogba, and Anthony Martial/Marcus Rashford. Rashford and Martial did NOTHING this game. Martial was basically invisible and while …

Manchester United's quarterfinal match against Norwich City reinforced some things that we already know. The drop off between United's A team and B team is significant. Bruno Fernandes can only be so good when it's Scott McTominay and Fred who are in charge of getting him the ball, and when he's trying to set up …

Paul Pogba won United a penalty and that's where a big question could have been asked. Who takes the spot kick? This could have been a big question - and it's certainly a valid one. On the …

It didn't take long for Manchester United twitter to catch hold of Saturday Night's reports that United were in the race to sign Ajax midfielder Donny Van De Beek and then literally run with it. Excitement is sky high, it seems like everyone thinks this move is happening. Let's pump the brakes. Right from the …

About three weeks ago Fbref dropped a massive update to their site releasing a whole slew of new advanced data courtesy of Statsbomb. One blogger called it "the biggest moment for public analysis since at least 2015." I can't argue with him. It's really hard to explain how big a deal this is to nerds …
I wrote this blog last year the morning that United were set to contest the second leg of their Champions League tie against PSG. The hey, crazier things have happened, why not us? blog. It was about 80% tongue in cheek 19% hopeful and 1% mayyyybeee serious. United were without 10 senior players for that match. Those …
