By that logic Brentford didnt deserve to win yesterday, goals count nothing else mate ;)

Firstly you are talking about the reality of the outcome not what a team deserves and secondly yes Brentford did deserve the win as MU were terrible and Brentford were good.

From Harry Kane to MOTD 2:

Overall we probably didn’t deserve a point from the game but we dug deep, we stuck in there, we fought until the end, credit to the boys, we had that last chance at the end there and managed to take it. Still stuff to work on but an important point away from home.

You were dominated, we just didn't convert enough and the refs two most questionable decisions resulted in spurs goals...hence you didn't even deserve a point.

Btw I was sure we would lose this game before it started.

Errr... if Chelski can't convert, that's on them, isn't it?

Agreed as I already said but doesn't change my comment either regarding deserving.

I suspect we might not play as well against the scum next week now :p

Chelsea with a £40m bid for Gordon, he has a future at Everton so we shouldn't be accepting that.

I know we've been in the market for some of the fringe players at Chelsea, so they could well use that as a bargaining chip. Especially as they have Broja who we've been linked with all summer.

I wouldn't want him to leave us though. He's creative and happy with us, but I can't see where we're getting all this money from with the financial implications we're in currently and given we still need to vastly improve upfront

Looks like Liverpool have remembered how to play football.

I couldn't believe he didn't get sent off at the time. Like, you could make valid arguments either way about Bentancur's tackle being a foul or not and Richarlison being offside or onside but I was sure Romero was going off as soon as I saw the first replay.

Just noticed, Arsenal have "Visit Rwanda" as their sleeve sponsor.

We are looking very much like MU did against Brentford, we are lacking in determination, running, etc hence why we had run 6 km less than Leeds first half.

Also that stats of Chelsea when they are 2-0 down at half time are horrific, 45 games with 42 losses and 3 draws.

Oh dear talk about the shit show getting worse by getting a pointless 2nd yellow card.

I wonder if it's worth putting £1 on Saudi Arabia FC winning the Prem.

Although I haven't followed their transfers etc at all.
