Is it the clubs that provide the crowd noises or is it the tv company? Intrigued as to what our crowd noise will be like if the club provide them. They were better than watching it with nothing but that's not saying much really.
The crowd noise was provided by Fifa, the game by EA, not fifa fifa.

Really? Didn't hear Geoff Shreeves providing his injury update over the speakers

Thought it was a bit odd on Wednesday night when I heard noise coming from the Etihad. Thought there's no way that's real crowd noise.

I think the teams get a bit of a pass in regards to the first game back. Some of the good sides in Germany struggled for fluency first time out (though still won). I thought we were decent for parts of the 2nd half. However, there needs to be a significant improvement for Wednesday night. Sheffield Utd are very well drilled side (you could argue far better drilled than we are given the resources) so our A game is needed. I would start Pogba and Greenwood and would be very tempted to bring in Bailly and Williams. And I’d tell Martial to move his arse or Ighalo gets on at half time. You're bang on about Sheffield United, we absolutely have to be better. I also want redemption for that ridiculous performance in the reverse fixture where we were awful for 70 minutes, stunning for 10, then threw it away again at the end. Leicester dropping points helps too, though a win last night would have really helped us try to overhaul them. If their form pre-pandemic continues their spot may well be up for grabs, though an 8 points overhaul in 8 games isn't easy.

Wednesday night is a must win game. In fact they all are now. Put the pressure on Chelsea as after tomorrow they could be 5 clear. Although they've still got Liverpool and City so much tougher run in. Aslong as we do what we need to do the rest should take care of itself.

Just know when teams around us drop points its rare we take advantage.

On this ‘rebuild’-
We finished on 66 points last season, which is clearly dreadful. At the moment we are on 46, with 8 games left. In order to improve on last year’s wretched display, we need to win 7 out of our last 8 games.
Have we somehow managed to spend almost 180 million on players and gotten worse?

Also now we're level on points with Wolves.

We are also a whopping 4 points ahead of Crystal Palace , who have a -4 goal difference, after 30 games. Also, of the eleven players who started in the infamous massacre at Goodison 14 months ago, only 2 are currently no longer in the squad. 1 was sold, the other is still on our books but out on loan..

All part of the very clear and obvious plan.
