I enjoyed the prime coverage. Huge two games for united.
Lose them both and there'll be clamour for Ole's head.

Headline on the BBC article for tonight’s game:

Man Utd v Tottenham: What awaits Jose Mourinho on Old Trafford return?


3 points I’d imagine.

Actually hoping for a United win tonight :dread:

I reckon the players will maybe dig Ole out of a hole by playing out of their skin.

I've a feeling Liverpool might pump Everton tonight too.

This post will not age well :lol:

I'm enjoying this Amazon action but this studio just can't hold a candle to the Neville/Carragher combination. Sky really hit the jackpot landing that pair.

State of these fouls on Grealish is ridiculous. :fp:

Thought I’d try the Amazon app on the Xbox One tonight and see how it compares to the Android TV app. No difference, though on Xbox it initially cycles through the picture quality, starting out a pixelated mess and then gradually going up to what is presumably 4K (there’s no info graphics).

Only complaint through PS4 app is that it’s too slow to load the games. The goal zone punditry is also pretty meh.

Neither app is showing in HDR either, despite being promoted as such. Normally the TV switches its signal and the menus will say it’s now in HDR mode but it hasn’t with the football, so I don’t know how you enable that. It’ll switch if I put on The Grand Tour though.

Feels quite the novelty to be able to choose from every game for the first time. It’s the future! Or, you know, the rest of the world.

Commentators creaming themselves over the Alli goal but to me that’s just piss poor defending from United. Could drive a glacier through the gap between their defenders.

Harsh on United too, though they’ve been wasteful.

Ah, HDR is enabled on Liverpool vs. Everton, but not Man U and Tottenham. Though bizarrely the Man U game looks far, far better, however the ‘pool game is smoother. :?

And 1-0 already to Liverpool.

What a ball! Kind of pass the Gerrard always used to think he could do!

Been a while since I heard Ally McCoist on commentary.
