10 to 12 teams comfortably better than us. That’s not to say we can’t shithouse it and go in a Moysey run.
EUROPE?!

brother, we're in the relegation scrap.

That's one trophy we can't win, before the season has even started.

Good first half, needed a goal when we were on top. Feel like we just got a bit tired second half with the heat and made two poor mistakes.

Clearly though, we need players in and everyone is aware of that. The hope is in a few weeks we look a lot more balanced.

Yeah, I'm not having any flap over that. We had 6 available outfield subs, one of whom was Onyango.

Based on Moyes’ comments just before kick off that he wasn’t too happy with what he’s seen pre season he’ll be well pissed off with that shambles of a second half

Slightly embarrassing to me that empty stadium.

Honestly, maybe im daft but I thought we had fans in America + expats.

No wonder we haven't been doing money spinning tours, MetLife probably lost money on that.

The testing the songs before hand, and the lyrics on the screen.... why? No one was there.

Think it was one ticket for both matches, there're plenty in there for the Man United match.

No reason we would have much presence in the US these days. We've been declining for a good 10 years, utterly shit for the last 4 and haven't had an American play for us since Tim Howard who left a decade ago.

The TV camera angles were a little deceptive, as a lot of the seats opposite were held for United fans - it was a lot busier for their game but we were well represented
