Man U v Brighton
Leicester v Brentford
West Ham v City
Hopefully, ten Hag will start flushing a few hundred million more down the khazi.
Looking forward to Hammers v Citeh, should be a good game.

from BBC football:
If Brentford didn't know what they were signing when they brought in Ben Mee on a free transfer this summer then they've just had a reminder.
The former Burnley centre-half rises high for an aerial challenge and not just wins the header but clatters into a team-mate for good measure.
Welcome back Ben.

Man Utd very open at the back, Brighton been through a few times but not taken advantage.

Hilarious isn't it, and you do know MOTD2 will probably use that tonight if Brighton win this game.

I know what you mean. But over the years, Ben Mee, along with a few other recent clarets (namely Vokes, Heaton, Ings, Arfield, Trippier) became more than just Burnley legends for me. They became legends full stop. And even though I might not normally want the teams they play for to do well, when they play, I enjoy it when they perform well.
Ben Mee owes us nothing. We owe him our gratitude at the very least

Agreed. He gets the best out of what he has and, win or lose, they all know what they are supposed to be doing when they step out there & are motivated to follow the plan. Good management.

Just been checking out Martinez on wiki. Somebody’s been messing. Probably the same bloke that thinks Charlie is 5’8”.

The most obvious penalty ever. How was that not given by the referee and then the VAR? Ludicrous.

BHA denied clear pen.

Did Ben ever get subbed whilst he was here apart from serious injuries?
I don’t think it is going to work out for him somehow.

Switched formation, that’s why. He’s been replaced by Lewis-Potter.

Brighton excellent. Caicedo in the middle is an outstanding talent. Interestingly United turned down the chance to sign him a few years ago and turned to other options.

It feels weird wanting the underdogs to win again. 6 seasons of wanting our relegation rivals to lose!
