Sickest thing is I wanted Klopp when Fergie left, even ahead of Guardiola. Sad to see what he's doing with Liverpool. Bad enough Man City are light years ahead of us but we can't have those rats leaving us in the dust as well, but while Mourinho is in charge that is probably what's going to happen

Klop: zero trophies in 4 years
Mourinho @ Man U: @dasmooth1 tell him how much Jose won in less years.

Hahaha those 2 trophies don't vindicate his current performance. Liverpool were a Salah injury away from potentially winning the CL. Old Mourinho >>> Klopp obviously but in 2018 Klopp is superior.

Gad damn, Your right, I finally agree. With Salah injury and kurias skills in goalkeeping, who knows. Klopp got the cash bag from Liverpool management and with that, bought mad players in 2018. He better win a trophy now. With Countless L’s in finals, he might even loose in a pillow fight finals. Bar none, he’s the best manager in the league since his arrival, the #1 potential winning coach of this era. About 4 finals appearances cuh, 4 elllllllll’s. Hector Cuper will be proud!!

Klopp did get the bag BUT he spent exactly as he should. Can't say the same for Mourinho. 3 seasons in and Jones and Smalling are still first choice centre backs. That's nothing short of a disgrace (blame isn't only on him for those 2 tbh. They should have been disposed of after Fergie left).

Klopp defo has to win a trophy this season and a big one in the next 2. However he has created such a feeling of goodwill around his club that even if they don't he will be alright.
 
Sums up everything currently wrong with United.....the team ain't exactly United in terms of defensive partnerships or starting XI
Surprised by Jones/Rojo partnership being so much...must have been at a time of where there were lots of injuries at the back and they were the only ones available.

In fact United fans (@Water Ur Seeds @DNB1 @CeLLar-DooR ) what would you say is your best starting XI based on last season and this, or put it another way who would you like to see start and in what formation next game?

My thoughts on United's best XI

GK: DDG
RB: Valencia
LB: L.Shaw (based on this season's performance thus far)
CB: Bailly
CB: Smalling
CM: Matic
CM: Fred
RW: Lingard
LW: Rashford
AM: Pogba
CF: Lukaku

Formation: 4-2-3-1

If the opps is a lesser team, Pogs can take Fred's position and Sanchez or Mata can play instead for more attacking threat. Fluidity on positions beyond Matic/Pogba too.
 
Son Heung-min one victory away from military service exemption after South Korea reach Asian Games final
  • South Korea beat Vietnam 3-1 to book their place in the Asian Games final
  • The side are captained by Tottenham Hotspur winger Son Heung-min
  • Victory over UAE or Japan in the final will see squad exempt from military service
All able-bodied South Korean men must complete 21 months service in the military as a deterrent against the North, but exemptions are offered to athletes who win gold at the Asian Games or a medal of any colour at the Olympics.
The champions, who will play Japan or the United Arab Emirates in Saturday's final.


It would be the ultimate ether if Japan/UAE beat S.Korea in the final lol
I reckon England should implement this rule on the national team; win the Euros or World Cup otherwise do military service. Watch them step their game up!
