Completely agree on the new contract and backing him. There’s absolutely NO excuse for doing what Utd did over the CH’s this summer after they extended him. You extend him early, he’s your man and you live or die by what he wants. Extending him early was where the issue lies .....
But nah, as regards the playing staff, Utd are a good ways behind City and L’pool now. No question you should be doing a heck of a lot better. And should be playing attacking football with the young attacking talent at his disposal. But a sinple rule of thumb is a combined XI with tiur conpetitors. For many years, a L’pool/ Utd combined XI would be heavilly weighted in Utd’s favour. Now, you’d have no more than De Gea and Pogba. And the way Alisson is playing, De Gea’s a wash this season. City I’m not even sure you’d take Pogba. And that’s just a best XI before you start on the squad.
The leagues massively moved on the last few years and even above and beyond Mourinho, who’s the single biggest issue of all issues at Utd, your squad is nowhere near a title challenging one if we’re brutaly honest.
That’s the cold stark reality of just how far Utd have fallen. So reminicent of L’pool the majority of the PL, making the same stupid mistakes, it’s untrue.
2-0 now Mollie Green with the second after 34 mins. 3-0 now Zelem with a great 25 yrd free kick in the top corner after 36 mins.
