The Manchester United Thread

Perspective - copy pasted from footie365

Diego Simeone – Atletico Madrid
The bad guy that this girl wants to see. There is an argument for labelling Simeone as the most impressive manager in world football over the last four years. Yes, even including Pep.
Taking over from Gregorio Manzano in December 2011, Simeone found Atleti in ninth place in La Liga, with 16 points from 12 games and knocked out of the Copa del Rey by third tier Albacete. Since then he has guided the club to four consecutive top-three finishes, their first league title for 18 years, first Copa del Rey for 17 years, first Spanish Super Cup for 29 years, first European Cup final appearance for 40 years and the Europa League and UEFA Super Cup in 2012.
All Simeone’s achievements have been in the face of Spanish football’s financially-bloated duopoly. The latest Deloitte Football Money Report saw Real Madrid and Barcelona rank 1st and 2nd in Europe according to revenue. Atleti were in 15th, below Schalke and Tottenham and two places above Newcastle. And Roman Abramovich is worried about his style of play?
 
You know, seeing a sentence like this

'Manchester United are currently fifth in the Premier League and find themselves 12 points behind leaders Leicester City, while they are also six points behind fourth placed Manchester City.'

makes you to run for another coffee. :D

I hear Nicky **** is moving to U21 manager next season and Warren Joyce is going to U18 manager. Seems a bit odd considering how well Joyce is doing in his current role.
 
Nice to see Will Keane on the bench.
Hope He gets a run out.

I love Giggs but he needs to leave and pursue his own managerial venture away from the club. Bit like Ole Solskjaer did.
 
Moving Giggs to the U21 role would be absolutely terrible, for him and the club, it literally puts him further away from ever having a shot to manage United.
 
There's a man who made a terrible career move chasing the money at a way to young age and hasn't recovered. Jack Rodwell.

Should never of left Everton when he did.
 
for christ sake, we play against the leakiest defence in the league and we go back to keep a ball style of tactics and passing it around the edge of the box ffs

Worst team to come to Anfield all season last week. Better results in 2016 but I'll be amazed if they survive.

Sunderland have played very well in 2016.
Last 3 games:
1-1 vs BOU
0-1 loss to M.City
2-2 vs Liverpool.

Are you being sarcastic or just making excuses for LVG? I can't tell over a forum post but I'll go for the sarcasm.

22 minutes played and we haven't created anything, not even a shot at goal, it's dreadful.

I am not saying they are in poor form, I am saying they ARE the leakiest defence. Doesn't matter what their results are, they have conceded 4 goals in those games you just mentioned. And we are playing right into their hands by passing it around the box and doing ****** all in attack. United are playing poorly yet again.
 
30 minutes, our first shot of the game, winning style of football this is!
 
Watching this game is bad, but having Michael Owen the commentator just makes it unbearable.

Do you think any hope of top 4 is gone if we fail to beat Sunderland today? The only faint hope I had of our top 4 quest was if we won today, any other result meant top 4 was totally done for me.
