    The Millwall kit was a dead giveaway.

    Burnley up 2-0 over United at Old Trafford and I have an erection that could drive nails.

    They have had 3 chances and scored on 2 of them. Burnley has done well but Ibra and Lukaku are not a great combo, especially with Ibra drifting so deep.

    Easier said than done, but you have to at least try to punish a team playing 3 at the back with 2 attack minded players in Young and Shaw along with Phil Jones.

    If Burnley finish a point or two out of Europe, this is the one that will burn. Although I've never been able to be disappointed with just a point at Old Trafford. So that's something!

    Glad I didn't get up in time to watch that shitshow. ManU should be ashamed of the last few efforts. Spend a billion pounds, get crap.

    It really goes back to the center of defense. Rojo is awful and Smalling (who DNP) is mediocre. Jones is a little better but they really need Bailly and Lindelof to step up. Tony V being hurt has really been a problem as he’s been their best field player the past 2 seasons.

    Also, I just think they can’t play more than two of their slower players together. Need at least two of Rashford, Lingard and Martial out there at all times.

    Watching Chelsea-Arsenal and I don't know how Antonio Conte has gone this long without a pitch-side heart attack or aneurysm.

    One of the announcers said that he'd start pulling his hair out, and my 9-year-old said it wouldn't hurt because it's a transplant. Have never been prouder as a father.

    I think the refs call penalties on Arsenal just to get Wenger going.
