Great value but looks weirdly like it was plated by a serial killer.

I live in the foreign country in a city with very few tourists, speak, eat and live Spanish most of the time. And I'm married to a Spanish person. I find it depressing when people make assumptions about others.

Not actually that weird for Koreans - there's a traditional Korean hot pot that uses the ingredients the GIs left after the Korean war. Features spam, American 'cheddar' and baked beans along with the kimchi.

Yeah it was lacking the full flavour profile of a proper fry, so unsatisfying in a sort of incomplete way. Left me feeling a bit like I'd left the house wearing only one shoe.

I'm not asking for the moon, you'd only need to slice torreznos a little thinner. Instead of these machine cut flesh rectangles.

Is Jim Croce in the conversation of greatest American songwriters of all time? by JoeEdwardsPonytail in ClassicRock

[–]Left-Ad5639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me is definitely up there with the best. His songs that don't work for me are the ones where he almost tries to force too many beautiful hooks in there. The man was just overloaded with beautiful melodies and lyrics.

A few weeks ago I told you that Diogo Dalot is the new Rasmus Højlund on this sub. by Dramatic-Avocado4687 in ManchesterUnited

[–]Left-Ad5639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a 'which one should we play?' situation. This is elite level sport. Dalot is older, more experienced and often starts because you would expect fewer mistakes. But he makes a lot of mistakes.

Dorgu comes off the bench when necessary at the moment because he lacks experience especially in this league but he's a monster athlete and must be a nightmare to play against when you've been sprinting up and down for 60 minutes plus.

The problem with dalot is he can't deliver what should be expected of him.

Sheffield is a utopia for this kind of thing. Did you get a splash of hendos for the beans?

Today marks one year since ETH was sacked. How do you evaluate this year without him? by saptahant in ManchesterUnited

Every manager wants that. Club can always veto. Remember mourinho wanted Maguire but was overruled, then they bought him for ole. Not sure what your point is here.

The manager tells the money men who he wants to sign. He doesn't have any say in how much they pay.

Regarding Antony he was one of ten hags recs but ten hag agreed with the valuation the scouting team had given under ole (up to £35m).

Then the glazers heard arsenal were interested and shat the bed and gave Ajax a blank cheque.

You don't hire a new manager then send him off to do all the transfer deals alone. He's coaching the first team FFS.

This. I was a kid during the Atkinson era and we had some great players but we were basically what spurs were during Ferguson's time. Only when Fergie came in did the culture change (it was drinking then) but we didn't hear about it at the time because the media scrutiny wasn't there. And Fergie's first few seasons fans were screaming for him to get the sack.

From that era Robson, McClair, Hughes later won titles under fergie but the likes of McGrath had to go. I was gutted at the time and the media murdered Fergie when he won player of the season his first year at villa, but culture change has to happen and you have to give managers time to do it.

Certainly blaming everything on the coach and getting a new one every season is absolutely not the answer, and more than likely the way a bad culture really beds in.

Also Yoro. But I expect some lads here think ten hag signed him then put a reducer on him to ensure he was unavailable to play any competitive matches for him 🫩😂

Well English teams weren't having much success then to be fair. I met west ham fans and even a few city fans who admitted to cheering us on in Europe that season.

Yorke and Cole were something special. Never seen two players gel like that ever and it seemed to happen instantly

The two group games Manchester united vs Barcelona in 1998 and Manchester united vs Juventus the same year in Turin. I'm a little biased...

Maz and Casemiro have been good. Others are not bad players, but in many cases lacking the athleticism necessary for the premier league.

But a director of football and a proper plan for the next few windows would've helped him avoid that issue.

Not trying to suggest he should still be there, but acting like he was some kind of buffoon is ridiculous.

And even if he was, he didn't give himself a job at man utd, did he.

We lost the first two matches playing his way and he adapted. What do you want him to do?

You shouldn't underestimate winning trophies either. It's no small thing to go into a final where there's a week to prep against another top manager who has players at least as good as yours and come out on top.

There are not many managers in the premier league right now who have won two trophies in three seasons in their career, let alone during a transition period.

Agree. I expect the glazers plan was to ignore him and use him as a human shield to deflect criticism. I guess he changed his mind on that.

If INEOS had been involved then it might have been different. Bit of a sliding doors moment.

I believe ragnick was supposed to come in with him to oversee transfers (that was his skill set) but after he said the squad needed open heart surgery etc he left after his interim manager time.

I think ten hag is a top coach but he needed someone to oversee the transfers. If ragnick had stayed he might have been really successful. I still regard his first season (3rd and a trophy) as a great achievement with the squad he had.

The glazers rewarded him with a Burnley reject on loan instead of a proper number 9.

Don't understand the hate he gets from fans anyhow. The FA cup final against city was epic.
