YouTube merchant if I ever saw one.

Think you're talking about Pepe here this season.

Zaha had 10 goals and 12 assists in the PL for Palace last year and was constantly their only outlet creating things and he did it upto a great point of keeping them clear of relegation. Its like Coutinho in Liverpool in 2014 or Suarez in 2013.

Even in games where he scores he tends to lose the ball too much. Will never work at a big club.

Coutinho/Suarez comparison is laughable.

Its the fact and the comparison he has elite mentality and takes on players alone.

Palace's top scorer that season was Miljhaviiosovic who scored 90% of his goals from penalties and free kicks at 1 more than Zaha, strikers no where to be seen, third was Townsend I guess again from midfield. Can't blame Zaha when he's too good for Palace.

Zaha should have moved on this season and Arsenal should have signed over Pepe . He is class and will be if used properly.

Zaha doesn't have the technical ability of either Coutinho nor Suarez. Laughable comparison.

Again not ability, the mentality. Very different things and mutually exclusive.

Mentality is just a word when we discuss players, it means nothing. I can say that Carl Jenkinson has a similar "mentality" to Luis Suarez and no one here can disprove it.

He could have and people would have noticed it in his stints. Anyways fair.

Nope. Can't imagine anyone did.

Amazing stuff. WTF.
Apparently the VAR decision graphic read "Decision: No Goal" and then they gave the goal

Salah unavailable according to rumors. Origi on the right wing then.

That United team...wow

Lmao Ole what a fucking liar

Yeah, you get the feeling the WWEpl should get foreigners to ref and do the VAR now, to go along with all the coaching, owning and playing. I dont really think the English should be working with anything more complicated than a wheelbarrow.

Honestly, can see foreign refs in the EPL in the next 5 years.

Origi is a poor man's Rashford, so that's a bit of a worry. But that United midfield is something else.

It will be a good game. Let's see if Origi can do something special in absence of Salah because that means Mane will have less space to work with.

Honestly, Ole is an absolute joke. Hearing him talk, surely no professional player in the team has respect for him as a anagerial authority. He has none.

Also, wasn't aware Martin Tyler is over 70 years ffs

Salah out, De Gea in, Martial on the bench

and now Tuanzebe injured in warm up

Absolute scenes and the match hasn't started. BEST LEAGUE IN THE WORLD

LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

Indeed.

Great atmosphere inside OT, United refuses to die quietly.

Atkinson deciding every small decision pro United, Jesus Christ

Firmino what a shot

we have to beat these today ffs.

Allison's first game back?

United playing very well. Just making poor decisions in the final third.

Liverpool will score between minutes 43 and 45+2 IMO

United underperforming because they expected to win games. This one they aren't and Ole has set them up as that team. We need to turn up.

I rate your intuition below that of anyone else on this forum, so I’m willing to bet against that
