Yahoo Sports wins the award for most insane rumor of the week. Dani Alves to Tottenham. Haha

 

Rumour mill is firing up around Newcastle. Sounds like we're getting Atsu from Chelsea and eyeing up a move for Aaron Mooy as well.

What is true, is that our new kit looks bloody nice. Ditched all the over-designed shit (blue chevrons, black block) and have reverted to a purely black and white striped kit, with red numbers. It is a bit spoilt by the sponsor logo, but can't have everything!

 

That's a nice shirt but holy shit that sponsor is horrendous

 

I wish I never saw that Dani Alves rumor. I'd cream my pants if that happened. He's one of my all-time favorites.

 

Had no idea we were playing tonight.

 

Oh man do I hope Celta Vigo win tonight

 

First time Rooney has started 4 league games in a row since September. in the last three games he has

- Given away the free kick for the equaliser at Swansea
- Not passed to Mata for an open goal, subsequently missed the one on one
- Lost Wanyama for the opening goal at Spurs.

What's coming tonight.

 

two footed tackle so he is suspended Sunday and "fresh" for the final

 

It's quite possible De Gea has played his last game for us

 

Man, same here. Left all my work till tonight too... I hate myself cause I'm going to watch the game, it's going to be shit, and I'm going to have to stay up late doing the work after it's done...

Also, something seems off about the whole De Gea thing. There's been no more than the usual rumours I don't think, but still...

 

Madrid are stupid to take De Gea over Keylor should that be what's happening. United would be stupid to let De Gea go. But Mourinho has a long history of sending some of his best players away.

 

Mike Dean is a shit ref. That was outside the box.

Well done Romero.

If he wants to leave he can get on his bike and he does want to leave so it's not Mourinho getting ridding of him.

 

I'm pretty sure Mkhitaryan is the worst striker of a ball in our team. it's always way too soft and he never seems to be in control of the ball.

 

Ronaldo scores. Good goal. Great strike.

 

iSiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

 

omg celta nearly score.

 

Celta deserve an equalizer, so undoubtedly Madrid will score now.

 

god iago aspas really is a cretin. horrible player horrible man.

 

Benzema should have made it two. Think he actually is injured.

 

lmao Targett ran past the ball and Bailly smashed him like a freight train

 

Stephens 4 yards out and shanks a volley.

 

2-0 Real. Who else?

 

called it

 

Guidetti's nightmare continues. He probably should've equalized seconds before that.

It's been fascinating (See: annoying as hell) to see Ronaldo actually be his peak self this late in the season. He's limped across the finish line by his standards for the last five seasons or so. Zidane's done wonders in getting the best out of him and forcing him to rest and rotate where pretty much every other coach has failed.

 

Rooney getting hooked?

noooooooooope never mind. Rooney stays on
