Casual reminder than Casemiro was actually a Ten Hag signing after all. By his own words.

Oh just wait, they’ll have to endure the 30 shots a game too and he’ll be gone before Christmas
That too. A poor start (results or performance-wise) and they'll have no qualms about sacking him in October or November.

Under soil heating.
Sack the players before the manager, absolutely shambolic from Casemiro for that goal. Not many of this lot fit to wear the shirt, no manager in the world would get a tune from this group.
Funnily enough, the majority of them have done well at other clubs.

We're going to end the season with 1 win in the last 12 games of the season.

All standards have gone if he manages to keep his job.

That goal brings us to 78 conceded for the season, most since I believe 77-78.

How can we lose nearly every week and this man somehow continues next season as if nothing is happening. It's the equivalent of me going into a data centre in my job and recklessly ripping out every cable and not being fired. You can make any excuse under the sun but the reality is the guy can no longer get results and must go.

Casual reminder that Hag signed 7 of these players, promoted 1 and gave contract extensions to another 2.
thanks for the reminder. I suspect there’s more nuance to it than that. No one person is the reason between success and failure.

It's not his fault he chose to sign players who don't fit whatever the feck style of football he's trying to play

This is worse than last weeks of Mourinho and Ole and even when the players took vacation early in the last months of Ragnick. If United didn't have some good players to score in adversity and a little luck too, you would be in the lower end of the table. Shite

it is funny, Casemiro looks like a Sunday league player, a far cry from the Madrid player.
Most of our players look shit to be fair. Bit unfair to single out a guy playing out of position.

I chose him because of that poor attempt at a tackle in the build up to their goal, getting skinned that easy is embarrassing. But yeah fair point, most the players look crap.

He'll be better at Bayern

Firstly, I thought UnitedStand was banned as a source.

However, you can imagine that Erik would love United to decide he future and pay him off in time for him to walk straight into the Bayern job and get a years salary for free.

How about he quits and takes the Bayern role and stops torturing us?

Makes me laugh whenever someone says managing United is the hardest job in football.

I'd be fecking shite at it but I'd happily accept a job at the club. Guaranteed lottery win for failing miserably, and you're guaranteed a loyal following of dipshits to defend you no matter what.

Nice work if you can find it

It’s ETH that keeps continually picking Casemiro when it’s clear he’s completely done at the top level, for all of his ‘ETH is bringing the kids through’ loyalists you only need to look at the fact ETH has left Amass on the bench every game even though we’ve no other actual left back fit and plays Casemiro at centre back instead of an actual centre back.

And the crazy thing is we have been incredibly lucky to only concede this many. Should have easily been 10-12 more by now.

Called it eons ago. It is the easiest job in football. A manager can double relegate United and a part of fanbase would continue worshiping him while Old Trafford would applaud him like he discovered the cure for cancer, AIDS and Alzheimer’s.

Can’t go quickly enough. Wasting time keeping him in charge.

Nothing to say really, teams done - it's on its bare bones so the league is pretty much over, losses/draws for the remaining of the season

He just needs to get a good team out vs city at this point, that's the challenge because everyone is dropping like flies
