Courtois is 4 years younger than him and he's never going to be benched for Mignolet in the Belgium team. It doesn't matter if he's a number 1 keeper or not. If he wants to be a number 1 keeper somewhere else that's another story. Sounds like he does. I think you're missing my point. No sane person would ever thing that Mignolet will push Courtois to be Belguim's #1. I'm saying his hold on the #2 spot is tenuous at best. He needs to prove himself before he finds himself fighting for the third spot. The only way he can do that is to play and perform for another club. He has always been a good to great shot stopper...he just sucks at everything else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Mignolet is making the Belgium WC squad regardless whether he plays another second this season. (And it still scares the living P out of me he might now be the CL keeper. I want to have a good go at winning that!). And tgeres every probability he’d stay as the number 2. Belgium don’t have options. Mignolet talking about being worried the WC is just lip-service. None-debate here lads. Hail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Far be it from me to give props to Chelsea but that would have been an absolute travesty if Norwich had won the tie. Absolutely shambolic officiating. If Scott's the future then officiating is well and truly F-ed. Same bellend that disallowed what should have been Solanke's first top-flight English goal West Brom his first PL game before Chrimbo. And he's patently not improved any. And as if he wasn't a big enough disgrace, the clowns watching the VAR couldn't even get bang obvious decisions in real time, let alone on replay, right. Shambolic disgrace. And over in Germany, even the players are against the VAR experiment now!

They were like "Why fight with several European clubs to bring him in and then loan him out to Warnock?" and I basically said he won't get any time in the current 11 and I'm pretty sure Klopp sees him as a 6 - so a spell down there to learn defense will be fantastic for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berggy9598 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Well that was another ugly win. Scoreline could have been a little more aesthetically pleasing with a little more composure in the final third but three points is three points. Pogba has to show a little bit more mental toughness in these games and not let teams get in his head. Not sure where Mourinho is getting the idea of playing Jesse Lingard in this box to box/10 hybrid role he had Oscar play in at Chelsea. Industry is one thing but Lingard doesn't have the guile and quick thinking it takes to excel in that role. Hopefully Sanchez can bring some more decisiveness in the final third. On another note, good to see David Silva back as much as I can't stand the team he plays on. One of the best of his era and seems like a solid human being to boot. Hope his little one born prematurely and his wife are doing ok. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichmondRedskin88 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Sanchez transfer is gonna upset the Utd locker room. You can already see it. Bayern wrapping up Goretzka was a very good move. That kid can be anchor for the next decade with some development. I’d like to see us jump in for Malcom next. Gotta address the RW position even if Robben is playing well. The squad is definitely getting much younger which is very good. I been waiting for Bayern to start working on this for awhile. I assume we’ll sell Vidal to get a good winger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some games they attack very well and some games they look completely disjointed. It's usually an unknown how a Jan transfer will fit in but what is it exactly that you see?

FanboyOf91 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Sanchez was a turnover machine this season at Arsenal. Not good for United's counters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a few reasons to question this move but Sanchez's quality isn't one of them. I'm always weary of bringing in a player after a move to his preferred destination fell apart which is my major concern here. United's quality in the final third has been wildly inconsistent this year and one of the main things holding them back. The lack guile and creativity when Pogba went out was alarming.

Berggy9598 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Can't help but wonder what Sean Dyche would do with a squad of players like Southampton or West Ham. Should be England manager although he may not even want that job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Unexpected and excellent result from Southampton. And a subtle reminder, not that we need one, that there's NO easy games this league before we play the bottom side tomorrow. Superb opportunity to move 2 games clear of Tottenham again now in the race for second with them to come to r's in a couple of weeks. Very good Sunday.

Still don't know why Arsenal didn't sell him in the summer. They could have replaced him and saved themselves half a season with a malcontent. Even more comical is that with or without Sanchez, they would have never been in any kind of direct competition with City while they are with United. Not sure exactly what happened to lead to this transfer because I don't buy that a club with owners that may literally print money had reservations about spending on wages.
