    Or the fact that he knows he can't help the shit of Lingard, Young, Rashford, Jones in the team. All of whom you adore. Stones, Otamendi, Sane, Jesus, De bruyne are on City's bench. All these players would displace the clowns we have in our team.
    ole bloody loves rashy and "lingz". He won't be dropping those and that's why we will continue to suck.

    They did it with this group of average players with bad mentalities did they?

    Amazing
    Yes, with worse players. Klopp had fecking Caulker in his team . Southampton regularly does it. Don't tell me we don't have players to win against Cardiff at home .

    You don't have to turn blind just because you support the club. You don't simply allow your loved ones to keep messing up their lives, you step in to try and make a difference for them. Simply sitting there accepting mediocrity and chanting for rhis lot does nothing. Maybe they should change tact and try something else.
    Actually im a firm believer that if someone is messing up their life, THEY have to want to change it.

    Im not sure these players have that mentality.

    I agree with action against the guys at the top. I also agree that a club should bw supported through highs and lows. So i don't know the solution.

    Ole hugging opposition players. That's all he is good for unfortunately.

    1 point at home to already relegated Huddersfield and Cardiff back to back must be our worst sequence of results ever.

    You're really stretching it.
    ------------MUFC-----------------------------Cardiff
    Possession 74%--------------------------------26%
    Shots ------26(10)--------------------------13(4)
    Corners----11--------------------------------2

    Am I? So you are saying that on a game with those stats we weren't unlucky to be the winners and that Cardiff was really the better team? Come on now. My only problem with today was that we should have dominated it a lot more but we were way too narrow. We created a lot of chances but also had attack after attack break down because we were trying to force it too much and pass it through holes that weren't there when we should have just played it wide...

    There is no short term fix, just deal with it and give the manager at least a season to sort this mess out. If you think sacking him will solve anything, you're wrong. All it will do is allow the weasels that have exposed themselves to the current management some time to hide again and remain at the club.
    I am all for giving the right manager time if it means something is improving on the field . Its been 6 months and we see nothing from a football standpoint. Seriously?

    We have no other. A beggar can't be choosers. We really need to flush all these players out. Klopp and Pep did it, Ole should do it also.
    We had Gomes on the bench but still chose to play Lingard.

    Yeah but Klopp and Pep are geniuses. Probably the best two managers out there at the moment. Ole is not and will never be.

    Is this the worst we’ve been both football wise and the state of the club? It feels worse than the Moyes season.

    So you are saying we are clueless in attack and not well enough coached going forward? I agree.

    Alright then put it this way. Would today's performance been anywhere near good enough to beat any other team in the league? The truthful answer is NO. Movement was non-existent 99% of the time. Zero drive from the players. Mediocrity littered all over the squad. Half-chances at best. And we were playing a relegated side who hasn't beaten us in over 50 years. So yeah, You are stretching it.

    I recently received invitation to watch United through their hospitality tickets. It cost double the price compared to the last time I came. They think I am one of those stupid fools to pay so much to watch this lousy team. I don't think I will come any sooner if the team has those bad influencers.
    Mourinho was right all the time. Need to get rid of those bad influencers.

    Would love to see these cnuts do their lap of “honour”(something they’d know nothing about) I hope the stadiums empty, fecking shower of shit. It’s hard to see where we come back from this.

    You can support and show your displeasure at the same time. They aren't mutually exclusive.

    Oh we defintely do. They just lack the mentality to try.

    That is why they need to be purged. The whole squad needs to be Thanos snapped. Then allow the coaching team to rebuild and come up with an identity for the future. That will need ALOT of financial backing and im not sure it will be given so thats the worry i have. This game, this season...none of it bothers me. Im done. Lack of major rebuild and identity put in place, lack of major investment...that worrys me

    The management are part of the problem.

    the last mistake they made was the hart. Pep saw that and he was gone. Proper stuff
    I was watching the last few minutes. 4-1 up and yet they were still chasing every ball as if their lives depended on it.
    Proper players.
    Proper attitude.
    Proper football.
    Some months ago I said that I respected what City have done an I was criticised for saying that.
    They deserve this respect and have set the standard for everyone else to try to achieve.

    I completely agree. It was brutal. That doesn't change the fact that we were the better team today. Doesn't matter though because we still lost...

    How would any of us know what the ideas are?

    And whether it's the players who are clueless?
    Its his body language man, a look of resignation. Ive seen it a lot since the downturn in form since his appointment was made permanent, every time we're down and fail to launch a comeback
