Crazy isn’t it to bring up the manager that put this team together and specifically set out to reboot the culture. It’s great some still live in a world where you just ignore all that and blame anyone else. It’s also great when someone can pick out one typo and think their Einstein whilst their own posts are littered with nonsense and basic errors, you have cracked me up. Never change.:lol:
There were no morale issues under Ole before this fall. In fact, it was markedly improved from the Moyes, LvG and Mou-eraes. The clearest indication was that there were no leaks to the press.

I'm starting to believe Bruno Fernandes is just a selfish footballer.

He created Cavani's goal with his pass to Dalot, and he's actually done quite well when he's tried to spread the play from deep. But you can tell he's just not interested. He'd much rather bung it over the top or play up front between our two CFs, than try and do some damage by moving the ball around

Again - you brought up Ole you numpty :lol:

You’ve already agreed with my overall point and continued to make a tit of yourself.

The bolded part is hilarious bless you. Back to school lad.

A few of them are overpaid instagram bitches, a few of them are just eternal hopes, but we have a decent core of players, we just lack the midfield.

I don’t agree with your nonsense, it’s not even debatable that Ole has to take responsibility. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a tit, the one thing he was supposed to be good at was sorting out the culture and the attitude but idiots want to blame everyone else. Like I said one day you’ll move on.

Who would have thought that standards would have stopped letting someone with no coaching pedigree or standing in the game coach elite players for three whole years. Shocking.

Cowardly.

No urgency or fight at all.

We play like we've been title champions for multiple years in a row.

It's time for the Garners, Elangas, Diallos and Mejbris to start more games

This lot are more or less mentally done.

Influencer celebrity millionaire kid. Not a footballer any more, sadly. Look at his hair ffs...

I don't know what is fecking our kid's development. The huge money or the shit influence of figures like Pogba. Probably a mix of both.

We need a leader of men, badly.
On mega contracts for achieving little in the pitch. Some of those players would be the high earners at the likes of Liverpool. We need to reward for success on the pitch, not how many sponsorship deals they generate.

Far too many lazy players right the way throughout the squad, happy to be picking up the limelight of playing for a big team. How they can think this level of performance is acceptable is beyond me.

Too many arm flailing whingers. Ronaldo and Bruno being the biggest.

Shame some people have to resort to name calling and have to latch onto things to make themselves feel better. You make me laugh but I also feel bit sorry for you.

It's a general drop in standards around the club, you can blame it on Ole or whatever, but it's there. The players have no character and there's currently zero leadership.

It's up to the current manager to set the standards and make his expectations clear, but honestly some players still seem to be undroppable. It doesn't help that the squad is full of players who want to leave.

I honestly don't know how long it'll take to fix this, we can't just sell everyone.

The players, bar DDG, should be absolutely ashamed of themselves.

They won't though, they will post their usual pathetic "apologies" on social media.

I'm really growing to despise a large majority of them.

Trouble is, they're never held to account and continue to pick up their obscene wages no matter the "performance" they turn in, while certain ones are un droppable no matter the level of "performance"

With that performance you do have to wonder how bad some of the Covid cases were, given the well-known fact that a lot of them were/are not vaccinated.

Something up in the camp for sure. These players were fighting for each other on the regular last season but since the start of this season it has been petulance and half arsed work rate throughout.

If I were to guess, Ronaldo told a few players that their shit stinks and rather than working to improve as players they got the hump with him, like they did with previous managers. Got used to Ole being a fluffer for them.

Quite possible. He probably isn’t the best on-pitch role model to improve that behaviour either.

What’s going on behind the scenes at this club? What we saw tonight is totally unacceptable.

As supporter I will not financially support this club if our prima donna’s doesn’t show any sorts of effort or passion. Either the club show that they demand accountability from everyone connected to this club or they will be without my money.

I wanted to lower expectations given the size of challenge Rangnick inherited. I wouldn't have guessed us to be this bad and Rangnick can't be called the problem. There's something absolutely poisonous in this squad
Our owners have given the keys of the club to this crowd of no hopers over the last few years. Rashford Martial Pogba Lingard etc they are technically decent players but their desire aggression and work rate is massively lacking. When Cavani comes on for the first time in months and thoroughly out works your over paid and over pampered prize forwards then you know you are in big trouble.

They've been like this since before Ole, not everything is his fault.
It’s his fault because he didn’t change it and allowed it to fester. Worse of all an idiotic section of our fanbase were badgering on for months on end about how amazing the culture and attitude now was at the club. It’s not, and it’s so bad. We’re going to have to go through another massive transition period fixing it.

Neville talking a lot of sense of Sky right now. Something isn’t right in the dressing room.

I thought Ole did a good job and left us in a better state with his cultural reset?

We do whinge a lot... Its weird.

At one point in the first half Maguire made a very obvious, stonewall foul... Fair enough pretend you got the ball for a second, everyone does it... But the way he reacted? You'd think he had been wronged a hundred times over.

Obviously he's not the main culprit, but just an example.

Bruno wasn't this bad previously was he? Being knocked off his perch has really got to him, I'm not sure I can blame him.... imagine SAF bringing in someone and doing that to Cantona. I guess you could say he delivered when doing it with Rooney with RVP.... but RVP was at his peak, and well, yeah, delivered, Rooney's perch was already shrinking too. Bruno's was growing.

And the knock on effect is that the youngsters seem absolutely scared because both of them are seemingly are on their backs for any error. Nev just covered this I think, I only heard the backend of it - Cavani the only who doesn't care about their bitching etc

What was it Keano called them? It was either pretenders or posers?

I think its certainly true for some of them.

Amazed people still excuse these players.

Well said, people really ashamed to support these players....they are taking millions to serve this on pitch ?

Millions of people across the globe wait for matches but no one will be happy to see these kind of performances for years and years

Those who care the most are the oldest ones. Dave, Ronny and Cavani.
Our young guns just jog around. It should be other way around, no?

We're late Wenger's Arsenal, a team with a few strong characters but too many who fold when the pressure is on.

We get outfought every game we play against the lower PL teams, Liverpool and City don't.
