Haha I actually watch a lot of United games because my roommate is a fan. They're on my TV every time you guys play. I know United can pass teams to death, but it's mostly lateral and backwards.

Doesn't show the FA Cup result..

Looks like he has determined that he needs his two Spanish midfielders to start. They are both such good players.

That could easily change, for example, Arsenal still play liverpool, Chelsea at home, man u away.

At least we're not seeing those comparison charts to Moyes anymore

funny to see who people would take over LvG or the comparisons...

most those managers are no longer managers.

oh how a year and a half have changed things...

To be fair, although I didn't say it in this thread, I would then and still would take Pellegrini over LVG.

Looking back I figured he was about on par with Pellers. Not quite on Mourinho's level. Arsene is great and consistent but I'm not sure I would rate him over LVG or Pellegrini. Those 4 are pretty interchangeable. I can see an argument for each.

Somebody said they'd take Brendan Rodgers over LVG

You don't think Arsene is better than LvG?

Arsene with LVG and Pellegrini's teams and blank checkbooks... He would absolutely kill.

Overall, LVG has at WORST an equal resume. He's been pretty mediocre at MU but you can't deny his success elsewhere. IDK if I would say one is better than the other but there are solid arguments on both sides IMO.

Those are actual things though. Actual advantages.

Aunt dick, not a real thing. Hopefully.

Dude has managed Barca, Bayern, and MU. Not having a better resume after managing those teams should say a lot.

His resume crushes Wenger and it's not close.

That said, he needs to fix this shite

Average age of the team today was 21.5 at the start which only decreased as the match went on which does have to be taken into account.

Part of that is his fault though. One thing is for sure. Manchester United will be a better side in the future for having LvG manage here. Giving lots of youth their debuts and experience and instilling a foundation for the club to return to the winning ways.

I said I'd assume keep BR, given the direction we were heading at the time, than take LvG...

And the ends justify the means with that decision... We got Klopp in the end..

I'm not sure if that was engrish or what but i think i got the gist of your post.

yet you tied scion and lost to newcastle recently so i'm not sure klopp is KILLING it as much as you guys like to pretend.

you are running a lot more every game though so that's good!

That was in response to jackwoods...

Klopp is doing great... All we needed was a draw to win our group on Thursday and we got it on a frozen pitch... Newcastle was bad, but are top 4 players didn't even start..

Everything he's done is with the same group of players Rodgers had... Every LFC supporter I know gives him a mulligan this year on that alone... Our squad definitely has issues that will need to be addressed and until then, will have shitty days... But the results have been night and day...
