The forum (and internet as a whole) would be a much better place if we just hold our hands up on the occasional mistake we make rather than doubling down

-------------------------------------------------------------

On one hand: this.

On the other hand: some of the most enjoyable experiences on this forum have come from the spectacle of posters doubling down on their original point, over a span of hours, because they've long passed the point where they could elegantly concede. The rhetorical gymnastics and contortions used to redefine and narrow the original point or initial objection can be quite breathtaking.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
True, but you need both a double down and a real moron like stretty to reach comedy value.

When he tried to double down on his position that there can never be more than one world class player in any one position, at any one time was a thing of comic beauty.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I miss Stretty. I once argued with him for four pages because he insisted that houses in the UK don't have basements.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Which is ironic as he no doubt lives in one

I held my hands up my good man. My conscience is clear. And anyway, even if I misinterpreted what Jose exactly meant, he’s still correct in what he’s saying 👌

Isn’t Shaw meant to be the best LB in the world

We should probably re-hire Jose's defensive coach

The parked bus?

Jose must be loving seeing Shaw mess up.

I think this quote (if it is actually made by Jose) is highlighting that lack of work rate from Uniteds midfield in the centre of the park (McFred and others) when Maguire is covering the left back and opening up the space between the 2 centre backs.The same can be applied when Varane/Londerloff with the right back. You saw it vs Liverpool and when the likes of Rash and fernandes refused to track back with advancing Liverpool players

No, it didn't. There was a sense of inevitability as the second half progressed.

I don't think shaw is a bad player. But maguire I just don't see why this guy is rated at all. And the price you paid for him.

Every time. Jose would let the horses loose for 10 mins in the first half play a high line for rash and martial and then park a bus in the second half told try and hold out a 1-0 lead. Inevitably they scored eventually. Some twice (against the likes of Palace, Burnley, Norwich, Ncastle etc etc

One thing you can say for Ole, if he doesn't have a philosophy, at least that means he doesn't have the philosophy those two had.
