GoalMOUTH is a weekly feature placing the spotlight on various sporting codes, tackling the brutal honesty and chasing after the rival trying to evade a bit of banter… It’s all about the banter!
Another weekend of some great English football and guess what, the clowns at Manchester United are at it again.
GoalMOUTH is a proud Manchester United supporter, but learn something, you call a spade a spade.
The last couple of weeks the new circulated about two incoming defenders from a German giant of a club, Mazroaoui and De Ligt, but if you watched the Brighton winner on the weekend, did we perhaps forget these defenders at the airport?
Horrific defending leading to a winner, but what was more shocking were the changes in the build up to this mind blowing, shockingly poorly defended goal.
Harry Maguire having a solid one and Bruno Fernandes being the only real hope to goal and you have removed them to try and defend a 1 – 1 result. Now that’s enough to shave your behind with a broken glass bottle.
Truly frustrating, but won’t harp on for long, the vent session behind us, because we have a very interesting weekend coming up.
Manchester United vs Liverpool at Old Trafford and then obviously, with one eye on the Rugby Championship, the All Blacks are in town.
Two huge derbies fit to cancel and wedding or maybe even miss the birth of your third or fourth child, first two always very important.
But I mean, every fanatic will know that an All Black and Springboks fixture on home soil and the old Liverspoon and Manchester United battle.
Being a Springbok and United supporter, we face something very similar this weekend, that being both sides have new coaches and are in the famous old “rebuilding” phase.
The All Blacks are here to redeem themselves and obviously these ridiculous “Cape All Black” supporters are becoming very loud. Is it because your brothers and sisters coming to visit? What is it?
Anyway, after they revisit the famous venue which left every All Black fans with their boots in their mouths back in 1995, before heading to what is going to be quite a hostile reception, as there probably more “Cape All Blacks” than Springboks in Cape Town.
Truth be told, black makes you look alot more slim and to some of these supporters, “slim” is in afrikaans word for smart. So already we have won the battle. So if wearing an All Black jersey makes you look “slim”, A for effort.
Back to Old Trafford, where things are without a doubt going to get hectic. Nothing much in it though, dismantled Liverfool team, with some issues between the new manager and some key players, but nothing out of the usual. Maybe a perfect time for some domestic drama at Anfield before such a big game, who knows, Trent Alexander Arnold might decide to retake his famous corner, only this time, try and put it into his own net.
Anybody how he threw a tantrum after being subbed last week? LOL – only the start.
One thing is for sure, expect fireworks, firecrackers, party poppers, big balloons and probably no goals. Both teams will be very weary of one another and with Erik Ten Hag (ETH) hanging on a thread, I doubt he will try and be too expansive or even entertaining. Man is “building a squad for the future”, remember?
GoalMOUTH is a such a huge fan of ETH, but if you go right to the top – I call a spade for a spade and won’t candy coat anything.
DISCLAIMER: These are the views of GoalMOUTH, if you don’t like them, great, I’d like to hear why.
So step into my GOAL and don’t mind to watch your MOUTH! 🙂
