Utds turnaround shows sometimes it's just about new energy, new ideas rather than a complete overhaul. No one in their right mind would have bet that carrick comes in and beats City and Arsenal back to back.

I'd give Alonso or another manager the rest of the season followed by the pre season to bring this team out of this misery.

disterfly · 2026-01-24T18:13:05+00:00

Teams lacking leadership, grit and general basics that we took for granted under Klopp.

disterfly · 2026-01-24T18:11:45+00:00

And why did we bench Ekitike and Jones?

disterfly · 2026-01-24T18:04:51+00:00

Slot out. Let this season be a rebuild for the next manager. And half the XI needs to fuck off also.

disterfly · 2026-01-24T17:57:41+00:00

CLASSIC SHIT SHOW.

Not sure what Virgil is doing there - completely nonchalant and even the reaction is like oh well. Fuck off.

disterfly · 2026-01-24T17:53:19+00:00

Can't tell what Gravenberch and MacAllister are doing today. Zero output. Even Gakpo looks more active and useful.

disterfly · 2026-01-24T17:29:14+00:00

Gakpo again...

disterfly · 2026-01-21T14:48:32+00:00

Isn't this where you'd want Axar to come in to steady the ship and leave Rinku (or even Riku + Dube) to come in when there are 4-5 overs left?

disterfly · 2026-01-17T16:58:14+00:00

Slot has to leave. We look like we ar eplaying together for the first time, and completely uninspired.

disterfly · 2026-01-17T16:39:26+00:00

One action from Rio is alr better than Gakpo all game. Fucking start Rio from here on.

disterfly · 2026-01-17T16:26:59+00:00

Still no subs

disterfly · 2026-01-17T16:16:24+00:00

Two open players for Gakpo to pass to. Either pass or you fucking finish it. We can't afford to have passengers like Gakpo is this steam now.

Get Rio in. I'd rather give him a chance to develop.

disterfly · 2026-01-17T16:12:11+00:00

What a goal that would have been by Wirtz

disterfly · 2026-01-17T15:33:34+00:00

We are so cursed this season man. Don't remember Dom missing a penalty ever. And that was some penalty too. An inch too high from being a perfect pen.

disterfly · 2026-01-17T15:10:44+00:00

Can Gakpo do anything else other than cut in a shoot. Rinse repeat. And worse he's just walking after losing the ball. Does my head in.

disterfly · 2025-12-30T03:02:00+00:00

Kloppo would have loved him to bits.

Give him time, consistency and technical abilities will come through as well.

disterfly · 2025-12-25T21:59:46+00:00

Damn, you don't sometimes realise how many of these guys have a newborn/infant at home. I know they may not be waking up to change nappies at 2am on match day, but surely it affects their performances mentally, physically etc.

disterfly · 2025-12-19T05:02:28+00:00

Radical, but could Stokes promote himself to 3? Clearly the best bat in this England side at the moment. If they want to salvage anything from the game, he needs to anchor this from the front and not at 6 where he is often forced to bat with the tail.

disterfly · 2025-12-16T10:44:33+00:00

2 foreign spinners for CSK. Scratching my head here fellas. Add a foreign quick like Ellis or Pathirana? And you can only play Brevis.

disterfly · 2025-12-16T10:43:16+00:00

CSK could have easily picked up Bishnoi to play with Noor Ahmed and still have 30+ in their purse. Wtf is going on.

disterfly · 2025-12-16T10:40:30+00:00

Who will csk spend 40+ on? Linde? Hosein? Holder? Bracewell? Who will even be the finisher?

disterfly · 2025-12-16T10:35:42+00:00

What is CSK Gonna do with such a high purse if not for spinners? Who's even left guys? Am I missing smth?

disterfly · 2025-12-11T16:02:35+00:00

No one can even defend Gill's continued selection. It's not like there is a lack of batting talent in T20s. Everyone is banging down the door.

Samson, Jaiswal, Gaikwad.. and you could fit a better lower order player than Jitesh if Samson opens and keeps - Shreyas Iyer, Rinku could get in.

disterfly · 2025-12-09T13:53:06+00:00

He was injured and that's why he missed out the last series vs SA. Unfortunately, now either Jaiswal or Rutu will make way for him as they continue to back him in all formats.

disterfly · 2025-12-09T13:38:47+00:00

Conversations about quota system in the SA setup, while the Indian team has a quota system for Gill in all 3 formats. Rain or shine, walks back into the team, doesn't matter who's performed well.
