Zlatan's goal. Yeah. He's good. (just now watching MOTD)

I'm not sure I've ever been more wrong on a PL player. He's 35. THIRTY FUCKING FIVE. I'm 37 and if I play pickup on Tuesday I hurt until the weekend. I was sure that like nearly every other old striker who's come to the PL he'd struggle with the pace and when United weren't terribly good he'd be a locker room distraction. In reality he's been one of the 3-4 best strikers in the PL this season and he's really the only United player who has shown leadership and willingness to fight and battle for league places (insert mandatory lol @ Pogba, who could learn a ton from Zlatan). Just an unbelievable season by a guy who had an epic career if it just ended at 30, let alone looking like he's going to be impact player as he's closer to 40 than 30.
Ryan Giggs has like the top 7 best "old guy" PL seasons, but Zlatan's 2016-2017 definitely makes the list as well.
Mustafi is having an absolute nightmare out there.
Crystal Palace are doing Big Sam things to Arsenal, and Arsenal are looking very soft and not wanting any of it. Also, wtf happened to Bellerin? He's traaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssh the last couple of months.
Townsend takes a dive, gets a penalty to make it 3-0.
It doesn't help that most of the team has mailed in the season (like the fans on the board here as you can see from the Arsenal posts). Just waiting to see what happens when there is no Champions League next year.
