Re: Manchester United v Burnley - Player Ratings

True but I'm allowed to think they are wrong BV. If we put a team out playing away against Man U that consisted of 70% of players being abysmal, below par and poor as per your ratings, do you really think we would have scored 2 goals and nearly (and deservedly), came away with a point? You have Par...

Re: Thoughts on Dubravaka's debut?

He is a new signing at a new club playing under a new manager as well as making his debut on the very first game of the season.. He made some mistakes, he made some good saves, he looked nervy at times and assured at times. I wouldn't have expected any more or any less. It certainly won't define his...
