Decent game.

Thought we would get a Greenwood special.

Bruh I Just KNeW It went in.

Pogba and Greenwood probably should've started

 

[Ill-Yaz]

Pogba plays sexy football man

 

[Ukbrotha]

That was not a good point.

Rashford and Shaw on the same wing are so infuriating to watch. So many wasted balls, so many half-assed passes and overall indecisiveness. If they played for Real, Barca or anywhere in Serie A they would get booed off the pitch for that display

 

[JDH]

Bergwijn looks like YG

 

[SCORCH]

That was not a good point.

Spurs didn't play in the second half, typical Jose sit back and hope tactics.

It's clear the fix is in with Man Utd and that the refs will give them a penalty every time somebody falls over in the box and VAR will only overturn that shyt if it's beyond doubt.

As well with James and Wan Bissaka. One can only run into people and the other isn't that good at attacking.

I guess its the expectation. James and AWB were an abomination going forward.

Harry Mcshyt is slow as fukk

Hate that he was appointed the captain without proving himself at United

I probably won't play him in the starting 11

AWB should be morphed into CB like Ramos

He poses no threat in attack but is our best defender

The world players' union Fifpro wants a mandatory mid-season break of between 10-14 days to help players cope with the demands of a revised calendar.

After a three-month break caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, domestic seasons in England, Spain and Italy have resumed.

All are due to finish at the end of July, with Uefa's Champions League and Europa League tournaments in August.

Spain intends to begin its 2020-21 season on 12 September and the Premier League is likely to follow suit.

That leaves a gap of three weeks between the Champions League final on 23 August and domestic seasons starting up.

And that gap will feature two international matches, marking the start of a campaign that will not be completed until the European Championship final on 11 July.

Work on the domestic calendar in England is yet to start, although there are already suggestions clubs in European competition may not enter the EFL Cup.

Fifpro is alarmed that there has been no consultation with players' representatives about the schedules they will be facing.

In addition to the winter break, it wants a minimum three-week break between seasons for players, followed by a retraining period.

"A mandatory mid-season break of between 10 and 14 days is more important than ever during what will be a highly-congested match schedule for many players over the next two to three years," outlined Fifpro.

"In addition, the minimum contractually-agreed holiday periods need to be respected. In most countries this is at least three weeks, followed by a retraining period to avoid injuries.

"It is not acceptable that altering competition calendars leads to pressure to breach these rights."
