Coventry tried for both players with us, but our owners are putting self interests before player development. They are trying to convince Murdyk to go on loan to Strasbourg instead of the PL who are in a bigger mess. They got hammered 4-0 last night by Marseille.

It is so much better for Mudryk to play for Strasbourg than Coventry

Hammered after a dubious red card, but I agree with your point.

Strasbourg are an absolute mess right now.

Sorry but that team might be battling relegation this season. They have sold all but 3 of their first 11. At Coventry he will be the main attacking outlet on a team playing on the counter, which suits his skill set.

Playing Mudryk = ready for insane decision. It is fine if you are a midtable club, you are probably will be safe.

If you are fighting for relegation, every point count.

Good championship team -v- PL winners. Is anyone surprised?

It is bizzare to read many who expect much.

Only in your mind. We join a long list of European clubs who have already given them a home away from their nightmare home.

Depending on the opponent, it could be a nice evening out!

Edit: assuming neutrals are allowed in.

Unbelievably , yes it's real, got an email from the club last night.

Hull 1-0 Man United

17 mins played.

Hull 1-0. Showing the G&D Coventry didn't. Then again, MU aren't Arsenal.

Well deserved goal, been the better side

Can’t wait to see Hull.

2-0 up against United. Was the wait worth it?!

2-0.

United having any regrets about Carrick?

Carrick looks clueless, Heaven is hopeless and how Dorgu is still on the pitch hes dire, Mbuemo has played CF all pre season games yet hes dumped back out on RW

Quite enjoying this one 😃.

I don’t mean to jump on a young lad but that Heaven looks so far out his depth it’s nearly laughable.

Manchester United are the gift that keep on giving.

Just when they think they've turned a corner, they break their fans hearts once again.

lol Man U were sh*t

Looks like Santos has found his level.

The combination with Tielemans can’t work especially for a transition team. Way too slow.

As I posted above: "Showing the G&D Coventry didn't." Good on them. But by jingoes MU were dreadful.

Man U are way off, I don’t know where they go from here they have tried it all. Big name managers, ex players, the latest fad manager and experienced prem managers now back to the ex players….. how long before they are calling for another big name to replace Carrick.

I know first game of the season can throw up some strange results but I look at that team on paper let alone today’s performance and think for a UTD side it’s bang average.

Uniteds bench was very weak

Tyrique George is starting for Everton for anyone interested

Just saw a worldie pass from Wharton. Palace player should have buried it.
