    This sub man lol

    Just scrolled through and almost every single post is about Man U and their crisis and barely a comment about Newcastle.

    Shows you exactly that this sub is mostly made up of Sky 6 fans.

    Perhaps Man U have always been a vile, rotten club from the fans to the owners. They just lucked out with hiring one of, if not the best manager in the history of the game in Fergie. Once he retired, the club came back to form.

    Who’s even available if ETH gets the sack? Neither Conte or Potter sound appealing or worth burning a bridge just to sack them same time next year. Ole again as caretaker?

    Cristiano was right all along

    Imagine trusting the judgement of a bald fraud who’s greatest achievement is outbottling spurs in a ucl semifinal, over our last ballon d’or winner and 21/22 top scorer who just lost a kid and was going through the toughest period of his life.

      We replaced Ronaldo with Weghorst and people are somehow still surprised at how things are going

      This club loves giving fifth chances to mid-tier players, ‘trusting the processes’ of dud managers, and scapegoating serial winners (Ronaldo, Pogba, Mourinho)

      It’s happened too many times to be a coincidence. Loser mentality through and through

        Pogba a serial winner? Then why didn’t he win anything at United after 5 years? The game has passed Mourinho by. He was trash at Spurs too and will be sacked from bloody Roma soon.

    United is just rotten to the core and I think part of it lies with Fergussons culture. As good as he was and what he won he had total control top to bottom and had was hard on his players.

    It worked for him but impossible to carry on. As soon as he left the club didn’t know how to function. Before him United were a fairly small club and its looking after him they are declining. Over taken by City, as biggest club in Manchester. Liverpool now the most decorated English club in history.

    United need to humble themselves. Stop spending all this money. Go sign hungry kids. If they go down to league one so be it. If they are a club that deserves to be in the prem they will climb back up. if not they can stay at that level.

    They don’t know how to actually run the club without Fergusson there and its been evident since he left. No manager will be successful, Players go there for the salary and then don’t give a fuck. Sancho, Mount, Fernandez, martial, etc etc all dogwater

    They need to go back down and start again from ground 0 imo. Then the club can actually build some form of culture and understanding. Not just trying to grasp onto the past. Fergusson ran the club for Fergusson united not man united. He left a finished aged team after one last run who were cooked.

    Anyone using man utd being shit as a way to hype/excuse ronaldo and his time there sniffs bus seats he was terrible in his 2nd season, refused to come on during a game which is pratically unheard off and did that bizarre interview with Piers Morgan, literally no condition to stay.

    O pior é ver portugueses a fazerem o mesmo, não há jogador mais egocêntrico, se não jogar pela seleção vai causar exatamente o mesmo tipo de drama (ou melhor, já causou com o Santos e o “estás com uma pressa do caralho para me tirar”) e mesmo assim defendem um homem que não vos conhece, a 8º do messi deve ter doído. Nem vou falar do clã Aveiro.

      Doesn’t change the fact he was right about the coach. Ten Hag is overrated as fuck.

    Klopp basically bought players this summer based on his own selection. He even convinced the owners to go against our age policy for Endo. The sporting director had very little say on it. What I’m trying to say is when it works it works, but when it doesn’t the ownership gets the flak. When you really look at Uniteds recuitments, except Antony, I don’t see anybody else who should be THIS bad. Sancho was tearing it apart in Dortmund, Hoilund is raw but the talent is obviously there, Varane when available is still very good, Martinez when available is again still good, Casemiro should nowhere near be THIS bad, Mount (I was never a fan of) but again as a workhorse his contribution in that midfield should be significantly higher and Amrabat has been good. So blaming recruitment and scouting team is just lazy at this point. What do they even do? WHo shouldve they brought in?

      If they had got Frenkie de Jong instead of Casemiro/Amrabat, they’d be cooking. There was a window of opportunity when Barcelona was open to selling.

      It’s always felt like it’s a bad manager - squad combination, because I just see a big vacuum of ball-players in the midfield. Casemiro is decent but strengths are elsewhere, Mount is not all that, Amrabat and McTominay are definitely not up for it, and even Eriksen is not good enouh to be a key player for a top side and can’t do it all by himself.
