The clubs current 'DNA' is Glazers and they will appoint whichever manager will protect and/or pursue their interests.
This was realistic maybe like 10-15 years ago, where football fans were more loyal and even watching a football match itself was seen a big entertainment. Nowadays if you go 10 years without any trophy you'd lose a lot of supporters, (potential) supporters/watchers, sponsors and ultimately revenue.
You keep trying to twist facts so they can fit your narrative, you're a WUM.
which facts have been twisted?
Every manager has to use a lot of managers from the previous regine. That Mourinho has spent as much as he's done and not gotten us flying yet is alarming and says everything about his performance (or lack thereof) at Manchester United. Essentially this is the sort of weak excuse people come up with when they don't have a legitimate defence.
Great majority of those raised but I'll just leave "Sanchez has improved us" one here.
So you think we were better off keeping Mkhi?
Again, you're a WUM.
Where is the twist - did we not exchange Sanchez for Mkhi? Is this not an historical fact?
And with the added benefit of hindsight, has Sanchez improved us since he joined us?
I agree with you simply because I don't even think that this approach suits our best players who are all relatively young.
I have already answered that question.
It wasn't his argument but the simple answer is cost. Sanchez costs a lot more than Mkhi did while the performances are comparable, if not worse for Sanchez.
But bring up cost is a different debate cos that becomes a question of value and worth i.e. was the improvement (or lack of it) worth the cost.
Which is clearly not the case, Sanchez didn't improve the team to the point where he became a substitute.
Because he, Carrick and Mourinho have made it public knowledge the club want to groom him into Carrick's playing position long term
Exactly. They play attacking football at the levels below, which brings out the best in Chong etc then they hit the first team where it’s safety first. It doesn’t match. We need a system where the progression is seamless in terms of style through the levels so that they are in effect trained for the first team setup
So are you saying Mkhi was a better player than Sanchez?
Or, its the kinda of post people come up with when some other poster says theres only 2 or 3 players being used from the previous managers squad. And once again, Jose didnt spend that money, woody spent that money. Woody over paid for those players and gave them all ridiculous wages. Since when did spending big guarantee anything?
I have actually presented my arguments more than once but you choose which ones to acknowledge and which ones to completely ignore.
No, I'm simply telling you that his purchase didn't improve us. At best it didn't change anything, at worse we spent more for similar production.
If we were to follow your logic, even if we assembled the worlds best players, (note not saying this was the case with Sanchez), but the manager decides to leave them on the bench or play them out of position, resulting in poor performances, then adding those world class players did not improve our squad and we are better off with poor quality players that the manager likes.
Well don’t you lot say the only reason that City are better than us is because of spending more? And absolutely nothing to do with coaching?
You are the one who cant seem to make a simple comparative argument but still claim to have made said arguments. All you have repeatedly done is try to frame your position in absolutes instead of the appropriate comparison.
This keeps getting better and better.
Nope. Not said that once. It’s because they have better everything. Scouting, deal makers, facilities, blah blah blah.
So to you the best players are inherently best, this status has nothing to do with their actual contribution in relation to other players? You are also arguing that Sanchez was played out of position(mainly on the left wing) and/or benched for no good reason?
bigger name? Dont care about the name.
Hey you remember that time I pointed out to Toby's mistake vs. PSV which enabled PSV to score and used it as an argument that Tottenham would have conceded even less if it wasn't for that mistake?
And no one has thought to inform Jose of this new revelation?
Saw this coming from a mile away but guessed you missed the part in my post stating (note not saying this was the case with Sanchez).
Nothing against that way of thinking. Pretty sure majority of us thought Sanchez was going to improve us based on his formerly shown quality. But that was back in January 2018...
The flaw with your argument is that the pass to Toby was not the safer option and I provided two passes that should have been made. Given Lozano's position, Toby was bound to come under pressure immediately he received the pass and give the location on the field Sanchez made a poor decision in putting Toby in that situation when he was under no direct pressure and could have made two other safer passes.
We have an improved squad n(cos Sanchez is still better than Mkhi imo) but it just wasnt worth the cost
When both players are consistently performing at their maximum potential, yes, Sanchez is clearly the better player.
