Well played to Burnley. Not looking forward to facing Werghorst twice though.
Ragnick's Utd seems to be:
Start strong > Waste chances > Fade in 2nd half > Concede > Huff & Puff > final whistle.
Dier and Romero will pocket him. Trust in Conte.
One game at a time people...one game at a time.
Bringing the game into disrepute ?
The club?
Could be easier to do the player for bringing the game into disrepute ...... and then the club for failing to control their player !
The club aren't liable for controlling what their players do in pvt.
.........You think United will be punished for Greenwood's behaviour?
It's a case of underestimating West Ham and Wolves at our peril (although aside from our matches against them, there's not much else we can do) - it's not to the same degree but they both have that Leicester title style habit of grinding out results quietly. Really want them to lose momentum ASAP.
Huge chance of top 4, which I never thought we had when united bought Ronaldo
We are the 4th best team now thanks to Conte.
I think if we finish 4th now that's par for us, any lower would be a big disappointment.

It will be disappointing after so much sudden promise, but it's a bit unfair to up the bar on ourselves and Conte like that mid-season when so-many of our own have written us off at numerous junctures since the summer.
It really would be disappointing.
Start of season based on Nuno being our manager, and watching other team transfers I said that 6th was likely for us. Once we got to game 5 I think I even lowered my expectations to 7th.
I do think that bringing in Conte before the January transfer window raised expectations of the club, and the great run of league games even further amplified that.
Coward.
"For the club"?
...Not sure how one would confidently guage that tbh.
For the fans?
.....Possibly, but such fluctuating "expectation" is pretty shakey ground.
I certainly don't think it's fair (of fans nor club) to place such expectation on Conte himself when it wasn't there at the beginning of the season.
Same as always for me; hope and support.... I'll happily embrace the sense of encouragement Conte has brought to the table though.
