He will start scoring again now that I have him

Özil didn't do anything and Milner at least takes pens and freekicks etc. Milner being cheap allowed me to bring in a better striker than Deeney :D
 
I promised a stream like 2 weeks ago but never delivered, any significant interest before I have to leave in a few hours?

Caught the last 10 mins of the United2 (that's supposed to be a squared number you geeks) game sounds like another draw but outplayed the other team game again. I'm sure their keeper looked world class as well and then will probably suck next week

Mourinho leads Manchester United to worst start since 1990-91
Manchester United are enduring their worst start to a league season since 1990-91 following Sunday's 1-1 draw with West Ham United.

The Old Trafford side turned to Jose Mourinho ahead of 2016-17 after three underwhelming years under David Moyes and Louis van Gaal, but the former Chelsea boss has failed to get things back on track for now.

United have collected just 20 points from their opening 13 fixtures, their worst total since 1990-91, when they actually found themselves on 21 points after 13 games, but had a point deducted following a brawl with Arsenal.

Mourinho's men are already trailing leaders Chelsea by 11 points following this weekend's results - with fourth-placed Arsenal eight points clear in the battle for Champions League qualification - and they are just one point closer to first place than they are to bottom spot following their latest hiccup against West Ham.

United's poor run of form got the better of Mourinho on Sunday, with the Portuguese sent to the stands by referee Jon Moss when he showed his frustration with his decision to book Paul Pogba for diving by kicking a water bottle.

Mourinho will be hoping United can improve on their poor start when they travel to Everton next week.
 
Sanchez special even when he looks dead - Wenger
Arsene Wenger was left marvelling at Alexis Sanchez's ability to change a game on his own "even when he looks dead" following Arsenal's 3-1 victory over Bournemouth.

The Chile star has been in fine form since being moved into a more central role in the Arsenal attack, scoring seven times in his last eight matches in all competitions, including a double against Bournemouth on Sunday.

Eddie Howe's men produced a strong display at the Emirates, but Arsenal's star quality ultimately shone through, with Sanchez netting his second in stoppage time to wrap up the win.

And Wenger continues to be astonished by the former Barcelona attacker's appetite for the game.

"Even when he looks dead he is still alive and finds the resources when he wins the ball back to do something special," he said.

"He has that conditioning that when the ball comes to him again he finds always that extra gear to be dangerous."

Sanchez is reportedly attracting interest from Juventus and Manchester City as he prepares to enter the final 18 months of his contract, and Wenger knows Arsenal must try their best to keep hold of him.

"It is important [to keep him]," he added. "How important? I don't know.

"We will not do that [sort a new contract] tonight and we have some time in front of us."

One sour note from the match was an injury to right-back Mathieu Debuchy in his first Premier League outing since November 24 2015, and according to Wenger the defender fears it could be a serious problem.

"He thinks it's a severe one," Wenger added. "I have to speak to the medical people. You can only assess it really after 48 hours, you have to let it bleed.

"Usually they have an MRI 48 hours later when the bleeding is over to see how big the damage is."
