ETH is subject to criticism, but the problems run much deeper than matchday tactics. It really begins with the owners, as we all know. But beyond that, our player recruitment is horrifying.
Fellaini? Mata? Lukaku? Pogba? Sancho? Antony? WTF?
Shaw was a great buy, Martinez was fantastic last season but a bit wobbly so far this season, and we all have high hopes for Hojlund but he’s far from a proven hit, but apart from those three how many other players have we brought in where you’d say fukkin hell United brought in a top footballer for the next 5 seasons?
ETH shouldn’t be sacked on Monday, but at some point club management needs to reckon with what they’re trying to accomplish and perhaps consider squeezing in a winning football squad into their list of priorities at least somewhere close to squeezing every dollar possible from their various streams of revenue.
