Can't wait to play this United team. They are so shit.

We lost to a much worse version of them not even two weeks ago.

Tell me about it.  🙁

Imagine us losing the title by 3 points. 

Emphatic win for Dortmund, they could have put five or six past them. Spurs could have put their best XI on and it wouldn't have made a difference, blatant gulf in quality between the two teams.

Don't worry, it'll be more than that.

😆

Wenger is such a shit useless cunt.

i'd actually have preferred going into Europa League. we could legitimately compete with all these teams, including the fearsome Dortmund.

Always enjoy seeing United get beat. Liverpool really should be a few up though.

For added humour, read the thread they started about de Gea (who's apparently one of the top 10 goalkeepers of all time) on Redcafe: http://www.redcafe.net/threads/im-calling-it-ddg-is-the-best-weve-ever-had.415488/

They need something, desperately, to hold onto, that puts them near the best. I've never seen a keeper deified in the same way as De Gea since United turned to shit.

Nah, Dortmund would have done us. They're playing at a CL semi finalist's level right now.

I can understand their adulation of de Gea. Imagine where they would have been the last couple of seasons without him.

I can see a bunch of teams in the EL beating us, similarly as I see several teams in the CL we could've beaten to get to the quarters or even semis with some luck. Luck also plays a bigger role in the EL as the restrictions on which teams can face each other after the group stage don't exist; that's why Liverpool-United or Bilbao-Valencia were possible fixtures already.

Even worse EL group winners can immediately face teams who drop down from the CL so even if we top our group knowing our luck we'd face a better team from the CL.

With a first choice first XI I agree we could beat everyone in the EL, even be favourites but then again we'd be in with a good chance against almost everyone in the CL too.

Trophyless, out of the Champions League? 

I just realised Pochettino rested players against Dortmund so he can field a full strength XI on Sunday against Aston fucking Villa 😆

The gulf between the 2nd placed side in Bundesliga and PL is huge. Spurs is at least 3 levels below Dortmund. It's amazing.

And I'll bet Villa get a point off them.

I reckon Dortmund would wipe the floor with us too.

But still in the FA cup- Exactly like us.

We've won 2 cups in the last 2 years.

Are we talking about this season or last?

6 days later

Aubameyang with a peach against tottenham. Sweet strike.

Coutinho with a great goal too. For all the shit talked about him he does produce a fair number of big goals
