The Manchester United Thread

I’m afraid the glazers sale has been a facade. With the new sponsorship deal with Qualcomm, I’m almost certain the glazers would want to milk this cow just a while longer.
That said, I have to start asking question of ETH and some of his baffling decisions
A. What has Pellestri done to not warrant a start?
B. Hojlund off for Martial
C. Bruno playing at CB

Ralf Rangnick’s words age like wine with each passing month.

EtH need to be held accountable. Tactically, he's shown so far to be inferior to a number of managers. His substitutions have been suspect at times and his transfers so far were bad. Only Martinez is a decent one so far. He needs to produce, end of. There needs to be a progress. Where is it?
You can't tell me that De Zerbi comes and lifts the team over night is some voodoo magic?
EtH needs to be radical, drop Rashford, drop Casemiro. Like you said, start Pellistri, what can you lose at this moment?

Well this is where the recruitment part comes in: Brighton have an incredible recruitment team with an actual aligned direction to the point that they can sack de Zerbi today and not skip a beat (people said they’d decline after losing potter). What we have is a mess. I’ve said this time and time again that ten Hag shouldn’t have nearly as much control over transfers as he currently does but unfortunately, we have an almost non-existent recruitment pulling in so many different directions. It all stems from one source ofc.

So in essence, I’m not going to compare the two situations as hypothetically, if we sack Ten Hag today and hired de Zerbi, he’d struggle as well.


I’m holding ETH accountable on what I know he has direct control over vs what’s at his disposal and feel he’s making some terrible decisions. He’s almost persisting with certain players regardless of form which is the same issue we had with solskjaer. ****, if Antony weren’t suspended, he would’ve played today

It’s amazing how after 10 years, there’s still more record to break

Exactly. Nothing will change as long as there are incompetent people running the club. There is not direction, there's jumping from one style of play to another. It doesn't matter who the manager is, club is going only down till Glazers suck every last drop out of it.
 
It’s a sad state when a player who hasn’t played for about a year and a half makes his debut after so long and does more in 14 mins helping his side win playing a huge part. Then all our attackers combined. Also showed more in game management, decision making and ability than the lot of this lot.
 
When the team wins it's "great players and manager... ETH has us going in the right direction".
When they lose?
"Duh Glaaaaazers ruined it!!!" :LOL:
 
Mount and Varane took part in full first team training today.

And Amrabat and Mainoo started work on fitness before returning to the first team squad training
 
I'm sorted for tonight.
At least it will give me a bit of interest in the game (y)
