Premier League 18/19: Matchday 3

[Big Poppa]

All of Sp**s' signings have been on point since Poch took over. Alli, Davies, Aurier, Dier, Trippier, Wanyama, Alderwiereld, Lucas Moura and even Sissoko has some uses. They're record in the market considering their budget and wage bill is absolutely phenomenal. Think Janssen is the only major flop.

Sissoko at 30m not sure if you can count him as a success tbh. Davinson Sanchez and Son however....

Janssen was a disaster as well .

This is such a Mourinho team too: Benteke, Fellaini, Smalling are huge fcuking brutes.

I was expecting them to manhandle Sp**s out of the game.

Benteke

With all the spending they did last summers they are in big shambles.

I feel like Moujinho did this on purpose,

That is what you get when you have 3 coaches in 7 years, with each coach buying his own type of players. Not to mention the players from sir Flex era. It is a beautiful mess. At least Wenger left us in better hands.

oh God. Lukaku.

Racist.

I think they're twins...look at their first touch

To be fair, Wenger left us with a very unbalanced squad which includes a lot of average players earning top money.

Haha, was an amazing freudian slip though! It gives away your true opinion of the player that Lukaku is. Never a Mourinho CF by the way, despite his build. His strengths are not the same as the ones you usually find in a huge CF. He is good at some types of counter-attacks but United are no Everton to not be treated with respect. Mourinho needs to get near-madridesque counter-attacking quality to succeed there, something that Lukaku can't be part of because of his poor first touch and passing.

Haha! You are right. They need to change fundamentally to play to his strengths.

They've gone from Ruud, Berbatov and Rooney to Lukaku. Strange that they stopped using wingers, then bought Lukaku.
