First topic message reminder :

I wouldn't mind Klopp replacing Moyes, if he does leave.

by TopoftheChops Sat Apr 26, 2014 4:44 pm

noooooooooo hull scored

by AberdeenSteve Sat Apr 26, 2014 4:45 pm

Phil Jones at right back.. Valencia at left wing.. Whoever plays on the left side for Norwich today is in for a broken leg

by **Crimey** Sat Apr 26, 2014 4:48 pm

That is basically why Fulham are probably going to be relegated.

by Fernando Sat Apr 26, 2014 4:53 pm

West Brom have defended a lead for once Shocked

#SamOut

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sat Apr 26, 2014 4:54 pm

Get out of my club

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sat Apr 26, 2014 4:54 pm

Right now off to work

Cmon you yellows!!!!!

by **Crimey** Sat Apr 26, 2014 4:56 pm

Can't see Sam surviving for much longer really. If he does go, he'll be in demand next year when teams fighting relegation sack their managers around Christmas, they'll all be hoping he'll be that year's Pulis.

Norwich will need a full-time manager, Norwich will be in the Championship, Sam gets teams promoted... Is that not a match made in heaven?

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sat Apr 26, 2014 5:16 pm

They won't pay him enough, he's currently second best paid manager in the Prem according to reports

Huge game for us at home to Hull next Saturday.
Lose and i think we will go down.
Think Norwich will surprise some and pick up a win.
Think other teams will to.
City and Spurs away last 2 games.

Shocking season again.

by **hampo17** Sat Apr 26, 2014 5:23 pm

I wish Sky would stop going on about how Giggs has to tell them to play the "United" way. Most of these players don't have the ability to play that kind of football.

by Duty281 Sat Apr 26, 2014 5:27 pm

Did Giggs or Lord Baconface pick this Man United team?

Dear me...Cleverley and Ferdinand starting. Always a chance for Norwich, then.

by **hampo17** Sat Apr 26, 2014 5:29 pm

Welbeck instead of Mata in behind the striker? Strange decision that one.

WHAT!!!???? He's getting paid more than Pellegrini and/or Mourinho????

Depend what list you go by, I've seen some have Mourinho, Pellegrini, Rodgers, Wenger all earning more than him.

by kingraf Sat Apr 26, 2014 5:34 pm

Jeez, didn't think this would really come off. I'm in the money!!

He gets paid £2.95 million a year, I believe. Staggering amount.

by **hampo17** Sat Apr 26, 2014 5:37 pm

Redmond is such a lazy player, didn't track Valencia and then stood and watched while he had ages to cross the ball.

by skyeman Sat Apr 26, 2014 5:47 pm

Man Utd v Norwich an odd one to call.

As others have pointed out, MU players will be wanting to impress now, which could in itself beg a question as to their loyalty to the fans. and the Norwich guys will want to stay in the big time, with the benefits that brings. So fighting every little bit.

Who wants it more?

by The Special Juan Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:01 pm

Well whatever Sam's getting paid, it's too much.

by The Special Juan Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:03 pm

This is the same type of performance Moyes' team was producing.

by **hampo17** Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:04 pm

This was never going to be an easy game though, Norwich need a win and are going to be difficult to break down. Although they lost against Liverpool they would have taken heart from the performance.

by Guest Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:04 pm

It still makes me cry to think we sold Ronaldo and bought Antonio Valencia

Agreed. Man Utd used to scare teams with the pace of attack. Norwich are better at it thus far.

Utd do need a clear out. The current crop should be ashamed.

I've rarely agreed more with a sentence.

by The Special Juan Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:11 pm

Was that a penalty? Didn't look like it to me.

by **hampo17** Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:13 pm

That was a shocking dive.

by kingraf Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:15 pm

Dammit, I hate it when a bet goes pear-shaped due to a dodge call.

by Guest Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:15 pm

Somebody in Norwich is getting scolded by chip fat as we speak.

Dropped his phone in the fryer, had to "fish" it out with his bare hands.

by Guest Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:18 pm

Definately a pen

Jarvis proved the other week that honesty gets you no where so why shouldnt Welbeck go down when grabbed from behind. Whether the grab was enough for him to go down the way he did is open to debate but the defender stupidly grabbed out, welbeck punished him by going down....simples

by TopoftheChops Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:20 pm

going down going down norwich city, going down going down i say

Skin all over the plaice.

Big blow to Norwich that. Can't see anything other than a Utd win now and expect them to bag a couple more.

Just heard Paul Lambert on the radio. Very drab.

That is in no way a penalty, yes he brushes his shoulder but it is not enough to either knock him off balance or bring him down or infringe him in anyway. Welbeck goes down because he decides to drag his foot on the ground, if he keeps his feet he has a good chance. Drives me crazy when players go to ground like that, there's just no need.

by Hammersmith harrier Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:29 pm

He quite clearly pulls his arm right back Hampo, the irony coming from a Liverpool fan who's been trying to defend the indefensible scumbag.

When have I defended him? He doesn't pull it back, he brushes it. That isn't enough to make him him go down, that decision doesn't get given at the other end.

by CFCNick Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:33 pm

Considering it was welbeck and his "bambi on ice" style of play it doesn't take much but this season he's been almost as bad as ashley young.

by Duty281 Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:35 pm

I shall have some salt with my irony please, Hampo.

by Guest Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:36 pm

Shocking defending. Send out the invites why don't ya.

by Guest Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:36 pm

Theres no point me commenting back mate. You have your view, I have mine. There'll be people who support your view and others who support mine. Thats the beauty of the game we love

by **hampo17** Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:37 pm

Duty I've criticised Suarez and other Liverpool players when they've dived this season, no problem with criticising any player who dives. But when a player has minimal contact and goes down when he is about to have a very good one on one chance to score it has to make you question the mentality of that player.

Show him and Lerner the exit door.

Interesting to see Fergie sat chatting with the agent of Reus and a Kroos in the stands.

by The Special Juan Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:39 pm

My viewpoint of Valencia has changed. He's crap.

With Lerner selling the club you'll need some good performances to get buyers interested mate. Lambert has only won 30% of games in charge at Villa, a long way from the O'Neill days.

by skyeman Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:40 pm

Rooney on for the hat-trick to impress the pending Dutchman Laugh

Feel sorry for Norwich, getting Man Utd without Moyes.

by Guest Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:41 pm

I think Lerner selling Villa and a change of manager would suit all parties.

Stagnant.

by Hammersmith harrier Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:42 pm

One thing has changed in this game, we've got a foothold in the game and instead of sitting back we're pouring forward looking for me.
