    these things usually dont bother me, but I was more than happy for Ronaldos bicycle kick to win, but that Salah goal?

    that was kind of a...............typical goal you see at the high level.


    was it a fan vote or something?

    Yeah it was fan voting.

    Definitely not the best from the selection - I'd argue it was probably the weakest of the selections.

    Yeah I agree..
    Almost as bad as people voting for a turkey instead of a rooster...

    See Milner poking fun at him for it.. Congratulating him on his seventh best goal that he scored getting the best of the year.. haha

    If the players swapped situations, would Riley have won scoring Salah's goal....no.

    Now had Ronaldo scored that goal.....

    Fan awards are always gonna be a bit crap right?

    Get a panel of “experts” and make them vote.

    Just as bad an idea really

    There are people out there who honestly think Hazard is in the top 5 players in in the world

    Then there are the people who are right and think he isnt even in the top 10

    again, i find it hard to argue with any of the players in the team except for maybe De Gea.
    if that was fan-inspired then they did a good job.

    but yeah, any egyptian or reds fan voting for that goal are a disc-race.

    Dani Alves only needs to play one game to qualify as the best in his position every year.


    thought you of all people would put know to put a bit more respect on his name.

    Marta winning female player of the year is a worse tragedy than Dani Alves making a fan picked team of the year.

    if any of you use the twitterbook, head over to @SwissRamble for a pretty interesting thread about Man Uniteds books for the past decade. If youre a bit of a nerd for the 'how' football clubs work its a great read.

    Some interesting numbers though, they more than doubled revenue (278m to 590m) from '09-'18 which considering it was probably at the end of their 'Fergie peak' is amazing.
    They also used to be locked in at around 42% of their revenue went towards financing costs. Now thats a very very scary number and something that can sink you so very quickly. Its now down to about 3%.
    Would be very interesting to see how Arsenal (a club thats been 'thought of' as existing to balance the books rather than win titles), and Man Citeh, who are accused of being reckless spenders killing the notion of a level playing field stack up compared to United. Hope this dude gets their hands on them.
