you could see it coming miles away...

so, i got up this morning hopeful. and then i saw that a defender for Manchester United that i thought wasn't going to play today, was fit. my first thought was fuck, they are going to play a back 3 today and get killed. sure enough, Ole started a back 3 and went with a 3-5-2 formation. and much like i thought Manchester City would do, they pinned those 3 back and made it a back 5 and absolutely controlled the first half. an own goal and another goal right before the death of the first half, and United went into halftime down 2-0. now, Ole changed the formation out of halftime, but to be honest, he should have done that 10 minutes into the fucking game. United was listless in the second half and City simply put the game into cruise control and basically the second half put me to sleep. United lost 2-0. they go into the international break looking like a team that has no fucking clue how to play or any desire to play for their manager. i highly doubt Ole loses his job, as i can't see anyone out there that the idiotic owners of United would jump to replace him with. now, i know a certain manager at Tottenham or at PSG that i would love to see as United manager, but, as usual, the club sat on their fucking hands too long to have those coaches. i'm so fucking disappointed right now. but sadly, not surprised enough to actually be angry. 35 years ago Sir Alex was appointed the boss of Manchester United. you look at the club today, and you would never know he was ever there.

i was pretty happy last night when the New York Rangers were up 4-1. i also knew they were playing a very good Edmonton Oilers team that are deadly when given time and space. well, the Rangers pissed away that lead and lost again in OT, 6-5. they play tonight in Calgary.
