#all their FA content is S-tier but this was just on another level

Remember back when CPUs didn't thermal throttle so you could actually just burn one if you did something like this? Remember back when Asus' incompetence resulted in 400 dollar CPUs on 700 dollar motherboards burning and exploding, and then they tried to void your warranty if you installed the BIOS update that made that not happen? Fun times.

Oxford United 4-1 Hartlepool United, FA Cup third round [ad_1] FA Cup: Oxford United 4-1 Hartlepool United highlights Oxford United came from behind to beat non-league Hartlepool and book their place in the FA Cup fourth round.The third-tier side went in at half-time 1-0 down after Rob Dickie's scuffed backpass allowed Mark Kitching in on goal to slot past Jordan Archer.Fine second-half goals from Rob Hall and the influential Shandon Baptiste turned the match around for Oxford.Tariqe Fosu-Henry and a Matty Taylor penalty in the last 10 minutes sealed victory for Karl Robinson's side.After a difficult opening half-hour, Oxford grew into the game and showed their quality in a decisive period at the start of the second half.Hall cut inside and curled home a left-footed effort in the 52nd minute, before Baptiste capped a fine individual performance with a superb solo goal shortly after the hour mark. The Grenada international, who looked threatening throughout, glided through the Hartlepool defence before slotting the ball past keeper Mitchell Beeney.The hosts pulled away in the closing stages, with Fosu-Henry tapping in the third and Taylor converting from the spot after Mark Sykes was bundled over in the area.The visitors felt they should have been given the chance to extend their lead with the score at 1-0, but referee Michael Salisbury waved away Kitching's appeal for a penalty on the stroke of half-time.Oxford United boss Karl Robinson told BBC Radio Oxford: "We were very good first half. It could have been more, we just didn't hurt them enough. It was a ridiculous error from ourselves."If we played the best team in the world, then we are going to make it difficult for them for 20 minutes."We'll deny space, not make things easy and it was always going to be the case - but it was about discipline. We have identity now, a style that some may criticise, but we stuck to it which was the pleasing thing."Our players were excellent. The way they conducted themselves over the course of 90 minutes was impeccable, and they stuck to their guns."Hartlepool United boss Dave Challinor told BBC Tees: "When you play teams at a higher level, if you do leave yourself open at the back their movement and quality will cause you all sorts of problems."We had another 45 minutes it's a long time in football we'd done ever so well and tried a bit last five minutes of the first half and made mental errors."Games can be decided on moments, Nicky [Featherstone] going through and what happens there, whether there's a foul, Mark Kitching going in on the far side and whether there's a potential penalty there."They're little things that if you're going to come here and win, you need to go in your favour, then at the start of the second-half we've not been able to hold out long enough to cause that panic and frustration which we had been able to in the first-half. We're always going to be disappointed."

Man Utd vs Wigan: Paul Pogba always wanted to be the best but he keeps having stupid haircuts, says former youth coach Warren Joyce ahead of Old Trafford return

It is easy to understand why Warren Joyce was unsympathetic to any youngster under his watch at Manchester United who might have been reluctant to go that extra yard. As a teenager, he once broke his neck on a school rugby tour of Australia but played through excruciating pain for another 10 matches over a six-week period before returning home to discover the severity of the injury. “They told me later I could have paralysed myself,” he says, almost matter of factly.

Joyce is a no-frills sort of guy. Honest, plain-speaking, a football man to the core, you can see why Sir Alex Ferguson entrusted him with guiding the futures of so many young players over two spells totalling 18 years at Old Trafford. Joyce returns to his spiritual home on Sunday as manager of Wigan Athletic, when several of is proteges, notably Paul Pogba, will be blocking the Championship club’s path to the FA Cup fifth round.

Joyce is fiercely proud of his record of producing a litany of talents. At one point during an hour of illuminating conversation, he reels off a 25-man squad, in position order, of players plying their trade in the Premier League who emerged under his tutelage at United. He demanded dedication and recalled how midfielder Oliver Norwood, now with Brighton, “always had a problem with getting weight off” so “almost starved himself” after being told his body fat was double that of Paul Scholes. But it is those who have not fulfilled their potential who get him just as animated.

“The frustrating thing is seeing ones like Adnan Januzaj, James Wilson or Federico Macheda get up to that level and stop doing the work they did to get to that level,” said the Oldham-born 52-year-old. “Not play the games, not train as hard, sit in Jacuzzis and not do the same weights and sessions they did to get there. Those are the frustrating ones for me, because that could be avoided.

“If you can get up to that level when you’re young, you need to continue to work hard. You hope they become intelligent enough that they’re self-managing. Look at the Leicester team that won the league last season. There were five players that were in United’s reserves. If you add Jeff Schlupp, who came on trial for three months, trained with us and says openly that it changed him around, that’s a big group.”

I’ve shovelled horse s--- with him to try and help himJoyce on Ravel Morrison

Another source of frustration is Ravel Morrison, the gifted midfielder who kept the wrong company, got into trouble with the authorities, was eventually sold by United and has just finished a short-lived trial at Wigan from Lazio after struggling to convince Joyce he was worth a punt for the remainder of the season. “There were times we took it in turns doing Ravel’s community service with him,” Joyce recalled. “I’ve shovelled horse s--- with him in an afternoon to try and help him through that.” 

Joyce used to drive what he called a “little old shed” of a car at United in protest at the so-called “baby Bentley” culture among young footballers that Roy Keane, the former United captain, publicly derided. “If you’re preaching those sorts of habits to players, you’ve got to have those habits yourself, haven’t you?” Joyce said. “I had the worst car at the club because they [United] were tight and didn’t pay much [laughs] but also because there are too many kids nowadays who have got big flash cars and they’ve not done anything in the game. You either want to be in a boy band in a pop star environment, or a footballer.”

Doing it depends whether he keeps having them stupid haircuts, and is involved in gimmicksJoyce on Pogba

Joyce recalls how Ferguson once sold Nicky Butt’s Porsche behind the player’s back because he felt it was too flash. When Joyce arrived at Wigan, he was given a Mercedes ML 4 x 4. “We’re sponsored by Mercedes, and I said to the young lads, ‘I’m not bothered what car I’ve got’ and they were all laughing, saying, ‘Watch, you’ll be just as flash’. The next thing a big white Mercedes jeep arrives at my house. My son’s going, ‘That car’s sick’. I drove it the next day and thought, ‘There’s no way I can drive that’. I didn’t even park it in the manager’s spot. I said, ‘Get me a car that’s not flash, we’re bottom of the league’.”

Talking of flash, Joyce has observed the commercial fanfare around Pogba, the fashion range, the Twitter emoji and the Old Trafford perimeter boards marketing the world’s most expensive footballer, and hopes it does not damage the midfielder’s focus.

“He always wanted to be the best player in the world,” Joyce said. “He set his standards to try and do that. I had a go at him a couple of times because he never tackled. But he’s always had that inner drive to want to do that.” Can he achieve it? “That depends on him really,” Joyce adds. “It depends whether he keeps having them stupid haircuts, and is involved in too many gimmicks off the field.” Joyce chuckles briefly before his tone becomes serious again. “It’s up to him, what he does. That’s me being critical of him because you can’t remember Scholes and Ryan Giggs doing very much of that.” 

Pick your Manchester United team to play Wigan

United paid Juventus £89 million to bring Pogba back but Joyce infers that the player might never have left but for the influence of his agent, Mino Raiola. “There is a story there but you’re better leaving it dead,” Joyce said. “There was a lot written and it wasn’t anywhere near the truth. There was me and him in a room and I can’t tell you. All I do know is he played for us in the Manchester Senior Cup final on May 17 at the Etihad, four days after Manchester City had won the league [in 2012]. He was still desperate to play for Man United in a reserve final when, if he breaks his leg, he isn’t going to Juventus.” 

Joyce played cricket and rugby for England at schoolboy level but his rugby career ended when he fractured the fifth and sixth vertebrae in his neck. “You talk about influences like Sir Alex but my school teacher on that rugby tour was Ray French, who played for the British Lions,” Joyce said. “They’re like John Wayne-type characters. You were ashamed to come off, even with a broken neck. If that had happened now the school would be sued to bits.”

Football was always Joyce’s first love, though, and within a year of breaking his neck he was playing as a midfielder in Bolton Wanderers’ first team. He rejected more than 10 offers to leave United during his second spell at the club. But it is often forgotten that Wigan is his third job in management. In his first, Joyce performed a remarkable rescue act in 1999 at Hull City, who were 15 points adrift at the bottom of the fourth tier and staring non-League football in the face, and his second was overseas at Royal Antwerp, United’s old feeder club in Belgium.

Joyce’s father, Walter, played for Burnley but was left out of the 1962 FA Cup final against Tottenham Hotspur, despite starting against Fulham in the semi-final. They never spoke about it. But it was something his dad did say to him when he was 10 that would leave a lasting impression. “He told me, ‘The fitter you are the more you can do, and the more you can do, the better you’ll be’. That’s stuck with me through life.” 

There are plenty of young players who will testify to having had that message drilled into them by Joyce.
