In you face united is back
Ofc Craig Burley is still salty 😂😂
When he said taking advantage of the drop off what u want us to do score own goals till they hit form stop moaning
my mind after this video: okay, okay, oww kay
Im a united fan, but he is wright. United has not been incredable, but we have improved so im happy for now.
Hatred of Manchester United is obvious and unapologetic
They are such a mood
Real shame . ESPN have the worst pundits in the entire world
Ohhhh dear.... Craig burley you desperate little man
All the crocodile tears 😭 from Craig Burley.
Ofc Craig Burley is still salty 😂😂
The worst place to see post/pre match conversations
Hypocrisy channel
That shot from pogba was on target...guarantee it was going in near post regardless deflection...stop hating on us.
They should change this show to "just for laugh"....
Trash ESPN garbage
Craig is a Donald Trump.. A pathetic loozer
Like him or hate him, you gotta admit it. He is right! Liverpool and Man City have been under performing this season compared to previous season. Man Utd has not been exceptional. Fact is that if they achieved this season what they did last season, they still would not have won the title. Credit due, they have performed better this season than the rest. But does that make them that good? Answer is serious NO. They still need to do a lot more additions. And Ole still is a question mark. That huge question mark is made stronger when you get kicked out of the UCL when you had every opportunity to move on to the next round. Winning 1 season FYI is by no means any accomplishment. Especially when you opponents do poorly. I mean Arteta is in danger of getting kicked and he just won the FA cup. But lets see what happens at the end of the season first. Ole might surprise us, and im not saying that is a bad thing. But you gotta achieve it first.
are good though mate, Burley still salty from being subbed at HT in the FA cup final.
Never a Red Card!!!!! Why don't the 3 of you just have a discussion on how much you all hate Manchester United instead? Thoroughbred haters!!!! Big up to Stevie for telling these fools off.
When ever i listen to this man i feel like he has taken some kind of personal loan from Man City to support his financial conditions..
Stevie is right why u guys hate Manchester untied so much y
Everyone bar Steve is SARRRRRFFFFFTT
we'll see on sunday.
This is complete nonsense ... the other teams who won the league precious years did so with the other teams also winning all their matches ?
How are these guys even pundits for f*ck sake?
Ohhhh dear.... Craig burley you desperate little man
Craig seems to insist that Crabs can walk straight and no sideways..
Stevie is right because that couldn't be a red card he clearly got the ball first it's the follow through got the man so the yellow card was a right move by the referee.
Bitter burnley 😑
They should change this show to "just for laugh"....
Shaka Hislop, was he a good player then? He talks like he knows the game....
I hope we beat Liverpool, wonder what Craig burley will say then? Muppet
And VAR is also a joke. What if Cavanis leg had been broken? Football is becoming a joke aswell. Oh, and NO mention of Maguires ridiculous disallowed goal? Stevie Nicol, you are good though mate, Burley still salty from being subbed at HT in the FA cup final.
Of course they think Shaw should have got a red 🙄🙄🙄
Ha ha ha haaaaaaaaa. Ha ha ha ha. You hope, otherwise your gonna look like the anti United propaganda that u actually are. So, any team that doesn’t win the league with 99/100 pts has to have a question mark next to them? KICK ROCKS ESPN ha ha.
Not united’s fault the others have dropped off
Steve Nicol defending a Manchester United player. 😱😱😱 What's this world coming to.???.
just look at the host pissing himself laughing from 10.17 onwards, he clearly gets a kick out of goading these 3 where utd are concerned :)
Can these guys be any more biased against Manchester United?!
Who is this guy?! Fergie's evil twin!?
They apparently doesn’t remember the tackle VVD made on Mertens in the UCL that were 1000X worse than Luke’s tackle
Pogba plays well when united are playing with black and white jersey😋
A lot of deluded Man u fans in the comment section...I really hope Liverpool smash y'all cheats
Cry(aig) Plz just stop talking
It's really so hard for these muppets to credit United and Ole with anything. Haha. Keep on hating and discrediting while we enjoy your tears. :P
That keeper haven't got a clue. How tf is Stece Nichol the only sane one??! He hasn't seen the tackle when he brings up knees. Nichols is actually right here. Shaw didnt "Catch" the ball. He WON a 50/50 with the momentum not through the player but by the side, and by not stifflegging after the challenge catches the opponent. That is about as good as you can get it in that position. His leg wasnt even straight.
Craig gotta lose this job 😂
Absolute tits
Yeah put some respect on Ole's name!
Man city should not exist
Good episode
Im agree with steve that not red card
Craig burley is salty
This guy shouldn't be on TV with his silly delusions.
EScousersPN!!! 🔴⚪⚫
Absolute Clowns at ESPN ;)
Man U aren’t good enough to be top of the table... oh wait they are good enough because Liverpool and City has dropped off... oh wait they aren’t good enough because they are only top of the table after 17 games... when will the football ‘experts’ find Man U good enough??? They have to win every game 5-0 for at least ten matches and even they beat city 5-0 it will be because city has dropped off. Give me a break!!!
This dude is drinking that haterade
When he start with 'this is factual' you know bullshit is coming up 😂😂😂
Burley = Bellend Hislop = Dumbass Nicol = Old Lady
Craig, after so many years in the premier league, you still don't know that the best teams don't win the league, the most consistent team does. No wonder you never win before. I think the standard of ESPN has deteriorate so drastically that these people has to act like clowns to attract some attention. Nah, United fans should all ban ESPN and stop watching any of it.
ESPN has been Liverpool FC for a long long time but its still Man United with the headlines hahahahahahahahah
stupid people dont have any clue about laws of the game!!! get yourself some football education!!!! stupid!!!!!
(1) "The drop-off is inevitable" - Newcastle dropped off..In 1996..12 points ahead..We won the double. Who cares? Who cares about the last THREE years..Living in the past yeh? Is that gonna deter the present, Marty McFly? If my auntie had bollox she'd be my uncle. (2) You are top my merit, you beat whats in front of you, you deserve to be where you are. Christ. Such a witch-hunt since Fergie retired. Credit where it's due. The word "Depleted" is overused. Managers build squads. They are the people who choose the teams they see fit to win. Klopp made a big mistake in not strengthening their backline. He made 1 signing in Thiago. (3) Shaw got a yellow, cause Brady halved Cavani. Done. Nicol is spot on too. If you get the ball, its not a foul. (4) Maguires goal ; Alan Shearer, one of Englands greatest centre forwards, found it laughable to be disallowed. "I'd have had half my goals taken away from me if thats the case."
Go ahead underestimate man United they will prove all doubters wrong
But utd had a poor start to the season like city because we both had no pre-season its Liverpool who drop off massively because klopp lost without Van dijk
Literally there was nothing else Luke Shaw could have done to prevent the Burnley player from falling after the tackle. He slid, got the ball away and the follow through ended up taking the player down. A controlled tackle in which a player hits the ball away and the momentum from his tackle causes the opposing player to fall is a yellow at best. Whereas a tackle that completely or largely ignores contact with the ball and ends up taking down an opposing player is way more grounds for a red. Luke cleared the ball first and as a result of his momentum the Burnley player fell - a yellow at worst, and the correct call by the ref.
Cry more
Apparently slagging off united, even when they’re top of the league, generates clicks
Liverpool and Man city are weak team's now don't make them look good ...... They are losing all the time.... For whatever reason.... All 20 team's have reasons.
he must be fuming as if Leicester city were near the top in the last ten years before them winning that title. Some people are just afraid of loosing their jobs because they're being paid by Guardiola klopp and lampard
This will age well.. Just wait and see
Burley has all the answers doesn’t he what club did he last managed
I have a feeling that Pogba with good players around him he can give his best for our beloved man Utd... He won the header against Burnley and Bruno passed the ball wide to Rashford who assisted Pogba for the ball which was very good team work...
Craig meeen give credit when its needed buddy
Thanks ESPN for the unbiased opinions. Liverpool pundits whose team hasn't won the league since the days mullets and perms were high fashion
These guys are a load of shaving cream... That's why i don't listen to this channel. Too much hypocrites.
Craig is just like another version of Ty from AFTV with his delusion. Can't take their words seriously
Shaka Hislop IS SO DUMB AND BIAS THIS MAN DOES NOT KNOW FOOTBALL. Shame to say he actually played for Trinidad and Tobago.
He is only there for the pay check.
Use are just sick that Manu are on top an city an the pool are not so shop with all that
I really get the feeling the anchor and the producers of the show love to rattle Burley. You can see it from the anchors smile whenever he asks Burley about Ole and United. Its all in the TRP. Ha ha
The only comparison I think of with this is if ESPN were right winged politicians
At least Ole just gets on with it, no moaning just gets the job done.... The behaviour of Klopp lately has been pathetic. But united are there and will be there come the end, I think united fans are just happy they're in a title chase entering the new year
I actually only look to see what BS they come up with. Not too sure why they have an agenda against United but my god is it clear and obvious. Top of the table and still criticism. These are not pundits
Bullcrap. Man utd haters
this is stupid. last season Utd was not taking advantage of drop-offs from City, Leicester, and Chelsea especially. Chelsea draws and Utd would draw... Utd has lost more games than Liverpool, yet are still on top. it's no f'kn fluke. United is a better team now and grinding out results compared to last season
Craig Burley highlighting something as "factual"....Funny :)
How is this clown even there
This guy is pure man u hater 🤣
So tendencious
This fucking show is a disgrace, they’re making excuses for everyone except us as if we weren’t playing with a front 4 of pereira James mata martial for 3 months last season and nothing was mentioned, and about the 2-0 man city saying city brushed us aside when it was a tight game for 80 minutes and they scored from a maguire mistake and a longshot.
Shaka and Craigs face when he disagreed. Right on you Stevie you got it right. what is he supposed to do. Craig and Shaka would rather speak about this and moan and cry and be salty then discuss United.
I forgot it's United's fault that the Liverpool front 3 ain't performing :/.
These guys are paid to talk nonsense. Please forgive them.
This Craig Burley man is a waste man. Last season was the worst season and liverpool won the title and becahse everyone was picking up injuries. Now that @ManUtd or on top "they'd taking advantage of the drop off". Ffs shut up.
I honestly hate craig burley right now.
Scored with deflection with no deflection who cares, it's a win 3 points that's all that matters...
So if Cavani leg was broken who would've gotten a red?
These clowns find every reason why United ended up top of the league😂. Loving this
Craig you haven't got a clue about football.
liverpool suffered wirh injuries????? that shaka said
As a united fan, to me the tears of these guys are like rain in a desert. So satisfying, well worth the wait😂. ‘The dropoff’ 🤣🤣
Dan Thomas you Legend😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂😂
Such misinformed punditry. If a Burnley player scored Maguires goal, it would have been allowed because of the acceptance that they play bully football. These guys knowledge about football is basic
