Indeed, perfect first 30mins for the neutral. Still something in it wile City are only one in front. Next goal is crucial, as they say.
United are utter shitehawks.
 
Where is the pride? The only Utd player who seemed to give 100% was Mason Greenwood. The concentration some of the experienced players showed today was on Sunday League level. If you won't play for the fans and the manager ... at least try to do your best for yourself, you lazy sods!

Having the season end with Colin Wanker celebrating a 2-0 win at Old Trafford isn't insult to injury, it's hydrochloric acid in open wounds.

And before the season's over we'll probably see Mansour Al-City celebrate a domestic treble. And Liverpool are favourites to win the CL. Couldn't be much worse.
 
Massimiliano Allegri is leaving Juventus after winning five consecutive Serie A titles, two Champions League finals, signing Cristiano Ronaldo, and getting knocked out of this year's Champions League by Ajax.


There's only one thing that can happen....

A friend of mine is at Wembley today - he's a Watford fan and has no expectations for the match.

If Manchester City win then Manchester United start UEFA Cup qualifying on July 25th and Watford go straight into the group stage. They might get a Norwegian or Irish team @Dr. Eddies Wingman @Niall Kielt - you guys rooting for City today?
 
Definitely used to mean more but, as a Utd fan, it will always feel like a slap in the face to play in it. And its also damn difficult to win, a lot of travel, a lot of less interesting ties and then boom, you meet a decent team in the quarters and its all over.
I can't see Utd losing a qualifying round but despite the hassle I am rooting for Watford all the way.
 
Vincent Kompany has left Manchester City and will now become the player-manager at Anderlecht. I'm not surprised he's leaving City but I am surprised he's going into management this early as I feel that he still has a lot to give as a full-time player. All those injuries do take their toll in the long run I suppose.

Is this correct I thought it was if Watford win the go in at the 2nd Qualifying Round?

I think for them to draw an Irish team (my team Shamrock Rovers are a possibility) then the Irish team will need to win a round first and that's if United are starting in the 2nd Qualifying round. I know of the Northern Irish teams that Cliftonville start in the preliminary round so they would have to win 2 rounds to face the possibility of United. Not sure what rounds teams other than Cliftonville are starting in but presumably it's the preliminary round as well.
 
Utd end up in the group stage an Wolves are in the second qualifying round. If Watford had of eon they would have made the group stage and Utd would be in the second qualifying round
