THIS! My mate that supports United text me this morning unironically saying that Herrera is better than Silva, so i'm crapping myself, United are back.

Just had to google who Silva was, sounds rubbish.

I like how LVG has us playing the 3-4-3 I think it will be both exciting to watch and fully sick.

Gonna go ahead and blame Bonera for all of this, and the upcoming season as well.

Inzaghi is still figuring things out as well, it seems. This is still the Allegri 4-3-3 that doesn't work.

I do not believe Deco took drugs to dull the pain in his shithole, he's seems like the type of guy who's all natty in at least that respect.

He's actually pretty decent for A-League standards but being better than a bunch of New Zealanders and Fijians is hardly a glowing indictment of quality. iirc he was only playing semi-pro in NZ before he signed for the 'Nix because he was on a working holiday travelling the world, before that he was a paramedic in Spain?

Friendlies don't matter, but the worrying thing for West Ham is, they're only 3 weeks out from their start.. we're still 11 weeks out and only started training last week in prep for this tour.

I think the players are going to go on a break again after this match.
