Before my time but easily two of the greatest goals in the club's history.




Won the league at old Trafford.




Won the game and the league in the dying seconds.
 
What the best World Cup goal you crew ever saw?
The world has maradona ran thru England as number one.
 
@Blue_London @Phoqry Fabregas hurt his knee. We might have to start fucking Bakayoko or Drinkwater this weekend in the Community Shield. They have been our worst players this preseason, especially Bakayoko.

Loftus Cheek is an option, but he just came back, so i doubt he gets to start.

When fabregas came off it all went downhill.

What did bakayako do at Monaco I'm not sure what his game is
 
Serie A coverage on Television in the USA is another problem this season. Bein don't have the rights anymore. ESPN and Turner are trying to get it to put it on their streaming services...behind that paywall. Serie A don't really give a crap about making inroads in N.A. Palotta of Roma must be furious at stuff like this. Also no home for the F.A. Cup on television in the USA yet. Whoever gets Serie A will also get the FA Cup as well it seems. Charity shield will be on ESPN + for all those that bothered paying ESPN for that..... I'll stick to Reddit streams.

Despite the drama for the domestic TV rights, there has been few updates regarding the situation in the United States.

The sports management company IMG did secure the international TV rights of Serie A for the next three seasons for €1.1 billion. But there has been no news on what broadcaster will air the Italian league on TV in America.

World Soccer Talk has reported that ESPN and Turner are the frontrunners to secure the TV rights to Serie A in the United States. Both companies have recently launched digital streaming services in ESPN+ and B/R Live.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s move to Juventus has helped spiked the interest for the TV rights.

IMG will reportedly likely bundle the rights to Serie A along with the FA Cup rights.

and then Comcast and Verizon have dropped Bein from their packages

NEW YORK -- BeIN Sports, which has televised Spain's La Liga in the U.S. since the 2012-13 season, has been dropped by the cable systems of Comcast Xfinity and Verizon Fios.

BeIN said filed a complaint against Comcast four months ago with the Federal Communications Commission, accusing violations of program carriage rules and the non-discrimination condition that was part of the FCC approval of Comcast's purchase of NBCUniversal.

BeIN said Tuesday that Verizon sought to shift it to a more expensive tier, and Verizon said BeIN sought a fees increase.

Comcast said BeIN would not guarantee what programming it will have going forward. BeIN has carried Italy's Serie A since 2012-13 but that deal expired and a new U.S. rights holder has not been announced.

NBC has U.S. television rights to England's Premier League and Fox has rights to the German Bundesliga. Turner takes over rights to the Champions League this season from Fox, which had televised Europe's top club competition since 2009-10.
I'm not even that mad at BeIN in this case. Comcast consistently put them in a higher tier as opposed to the regular sports tier. Some bullshit by Comcast and Verizon.
