Just read this comment on the ManU site and choked on my drink:
"Fair play to De Bruyne, great player and really has cemented his place in all time top premier league midfielders behind Scholes, Keane, Carrick, Anderson, Fletcher, Fernandes, Gerrard, Lampard, Vieira, Fabregas, Toure, Kante. "
I know most fans are devoted to their own players and I don't like ManCity but seriously. I have to think he is having a laugh.
1.) 21 May 2025 23:22:56
Wah? They gave props to Gerrard?
2.) 21 May 2025 23:24:30
I can’t even think who Anderson is, but I would have thought they would keep quiet about Fernandez after the Europa clown show.
3.) 22 May 2025 02:07:57
Anderson was the guy who looks like The Predator and is the red-herring that shows the post must be a joke. He was terrible.
4.) 22 May 2025 02:15:47
I think they mean the Brazilian Anderson, idreamofgin, which makes the original post that much funnier.

‘Why Finishing Seventeenth Without Silverware Is A Positive’ - Shappy, probably.

Stoneage, he was actually quite decent for a short spell for united and I seem to remember he was one of the first names on the team sheet, it's hilarious that he found his way on to that list though, Lucas was way better than him and we would never put Lucas on a greatest pl midfielders of all time list. I remember when Anderson was at gremio people said he was the next coming of ronaldinho though.
7.) 22 May 2025 06:36:48
Carrick was underrated IMO but him Fletcher and Anderson at best were on a level with Milner. You need players like them to win trophies but no way would they ever be talked about as world class. They wouldn't even be in the conversation of best ManU midfielders let alone PL.
8.) 22 May 2025 08:36:53
I missed the fact that Fletcher was on the list lmao, Carrick was a decent player for sure but fletcher and Anderson on an all time list, bringing up my man Leiva again, Lucas was much better than either of them.
9.) 22 May 2025 11:44:52
Patrick, we got lucky. They could have added Tom Cleverly to that list and that would have kicked off even more laughs.
And fully agree, Lucas was miles better than Fletcher and Anderson.
10.) 22 May 2025 08:47:54
Phil you've spoiled it.
I was really looking forward to Shappy's next article "List of players that were better than De Bruyne" and now you've given away the cliff hanging finale.
Guess he'll have to do another one along the lines of "Man Utd need better players and time" not read one of them in a while.

i can see some posters wanting to know what a liverpool suit look like. Well here you go:
Tap for larger image.
1.) 07 May 2025 14:33:48
Gorgeous.
2.) 07 May 2025 15:18:19
Outstanding.
3.) 07 May 2025 19:15:03
Better than the white Armani ones our lot wore at Wembley.

This guy was Neymar's coach when he was young:
1.) 30 Apr 2025 15:56:11
Hilarious ???.
20 Apr 2025 00:08:29
Watching highlights of sourness and the question was posed "if Neymar was tackled by sourness how many rollovers would he do". The response "none cause he would be dead".
1.) 20 Apr 2025 11:06:50
@Phil, I remember playing footie as a young guy and one of the OG's on our team always said that if you really got hurt off a tackle that you simply wouldn't move. Why? Cos the pain would leave you temporarily paralysed for a moment.
03 Apr 2025 03:34:58
I was going to post earlier but decided might be wise to collect my thoughts first rather than fire off a post i might regret. But having had a number of second looks at that "clearance" by Tarkowski - my goodness. Thought i was watching Vinnie Jones saying hello to Cantona once more. Might have got the ball but I have no idea what Tierney (I think he was on VAR) was thinking not getting Barrott to have a second look at that.
1.) 03 Apr 2025 05:48:59
Tierney is a Manchester lad. A friend of Coote. I doubt anything else needs to be said.
2.) 03 Apr 2025 06:23:05
It was a red card in real time all day long.
Scandalous officiating last night. We won in spite of them.
3.) 03 Apr 2025 06:40:28
Horrendous tackle, the guy is a thug with history of doing similar before. The ref and especially VAR should have a good hard look at themselves how this moron stayed on the pitch.
4.) 03 Apr 2025 06:58:23
And as for Pickford on Nuñez…… says it all really.
5.) 03 Apr 2025 07:00:11
He needs to be retrospectively banned for three games minimum Tarkowski.
I would like him to play Arsenal to be honest but this is a lad who will keep doing this until he is punished. Honestly I think he needs 6 games.
6.) 03 Apr 2025 07:55:29
It’s very rare you come away from a Derby game you’ve won feeling as angry as I did last night.
What are the officials trying to do? The ref might as well have had a blue shirt on and the Tarkowski lunge is as clear a red card as you’ll ever see yet the ref, whose is right next to it and VAR looking at it in slow motion from 10 different angles can’t see that? Are we expected to believe that?
Then Beto boots Kelleher at head height after already being booked, nothing. Pickford boots Nunez up in the air and Nunez gets booked?
Honestly it couldn’t be more obvious that they are trying to fix football matches. Why they are doing it is up for debate but there is no doubt in my mind that the officials are corrupting the game. It’s the only rational explanation.
7.) 03 Apr 2025 08:57:07
Great comments on here. The thing with these refs and I always say this, they go out of their way to make themselves the story. As they say, "They doing too much". An incident like that does not even need to be checked by VAR. In real time, it is a straight red. We all know it. We all saw it.
The fact that the ref gave a yellow means he already made up his mind which is dumb cos if you get it wrong which he did, the VAR either has to back him up like Tierney did or make him look stupid by having him go to the monitor to see what he couldn't see that we all saw in real time.
These refs NEVER do the simple things that we all know are the right decisions. They insert themselves into these things and now after very good game from both sides, who's the story? The ref. And if Duncan Ferguson is saying that was a straight red then, you know the ref was a mug and the occasion was TOO big for him. Pathetic.
8.) 03 Apr 2025 09:19:11
It’s clear that there needs to be a broken leg before he gets sent off and even then they will probably make some excuses. Everything about that tackle was horrendous. Thank god Mecca could carry on playing. The ref and VAR were both shocking.
9.) 03 Apr 2025 09:31:57
I don’t think they can take retrospective action as he was given a yellow and it went through VAR. Now watch at the weekend as they roll over for Arsenal and have their belly tickled.
10.) 03 Apr 2025 09:34:22
We won, yet we're all (rightly) fuming again because the referees are not just crap, but doubling down on their crapness to compensate for being crap.
If MacAllister was long-limbed rather than stocky, that would have been an ACL.
The fact that Tierney sat in that office and watched the replay and waved it through is a bigger disgrace than the on field decision. Yet, it is no surprise to us as Tierney is always at the scene of the crime.
While the authorities might not be able to make better refs, they can take VAR out of the hands of this absolute racket that is the PGMOL and run it independently.
11.) 03 Apr 2025 10:07:24
It’s farcical and incompetence that VAR did not upgrade the yellow to the red. PMGOL have just come out with a statement admitting fault - yet again.
12.) 03 Apr 2025 10:15:16
"doubling down on their crapness to compensate for being crap.
".
Can I borrow this, mate?

25mill at end of last season for Quansah might have seen some takers but not after this season. He has rested on his laurels and not pushed on - can see clubs thinking his attitude is a risk. i've watched him coming up through the academy and was very hopeful about him as I thought he had what it took to be a very good CB. But Im gradually losing trust that he is willing to put the hard yards in to reach the levels he needs to.
01 Apr 2025 22:04:14
to paraphrase the waterboy - stay off the drugs.
Wrong salary profile, wrong age profile and wrong injury profile for us.
27 Mar 2025 20:06:56
That Keita one still burns me. I was so hyped when he joined - i really thought he was going to be the difference maker in our midfield. And then to think what we couldve done with that money instead. Nunez has weaknesses but compared to Keita.
04 Mar 2025 20:28:17
Ed01 he was talking about Kenny Rogers.
24 Feb 2025 05:28:27
IMO too many departures and incomings at same time causes huge stress on team culture. Youd only be considering this if you were certain VVD, trent and salah were staying and even then its a huge risk. Part of reason Manu dropped so badly is the changeover in players wrecked their culture.
22 May 2025 06:36:48
Carrick was underrated IMO but him Fletcher and Anderson at best were on a level with Milner. You need players like them to win trophies but no way would they ever be talked about as world class. They wouldn't even be in the conversation of best ManU midfielders let alone PL.
15 May 2025 22:42:36
Im not sure what a marquee signing is but we have splashed the cash before. VVD, Keita just to name 2. And if reports are correct we tried to get Caicedo for 100+ mill so the club has shown its willing to open the bank if they see the value. The problem its a lot of risk when you might easily end up with a Keita when you couldve bought Szob, Macca and Grav for the same amounnt.
14 May 2025 23:25:43
Ed25 given you are a blues supporter, you would be pretty good at that by now ;-)
{Ed025's Note - in the past maybe Phil, but we will end up smelling of roses now mate when we move to BMD.. :)
26 Apr 2025 14:19:46
I feel like he fades in and out of matches.
26 Apr 2025 07:23:43
Ed25. Which premier league would that be? Haven’t there been like 10 different iterations in the last 30+ years?
{Ed025's Note - its all about money since SKY got involved Phil, dont get me wrong i like the amount of televised games but people tend to forget the history before then mate...like when Everton were the top dogs.. :)
