  1. A striker who doesn't score goals, a keeper who costs us points, and a midfielder who is never fit. Our marquee Summer signings have NOT improved us.

    Paul Scholes called it correct in a recent interview, Harry Kane and Declan Rice were the 2 signings we should have made in the summer, shocking how standards have been severely lowered at this club, money first, footballing ambition a distant second.
  2. The fanbase's role in the erosion of standards

    Real Madrid fans would not put up with this but it would take relegation for this fan base to turn up the heat on the Glazers...
  3. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    He was the golden boy when we beat Barcelona but he's regressed massively and the signings of Antony (0 goals and 1 assist in his last 25 games) and Onana have been dreadful.
  4. Rasmus Højlund | 2023/24 Performances

    Almost £200m on Onana, Mount, and Hojlund, let that sink in...terrible decision making.
  5. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    Someone who would be willing to tow the company line, keep the share price steady, get rid of the high earners and promote kids, in other words, say all the right things for the fans/customers but essentially be a company man, in other words, a Glazer puppet, that's probably the secret memo to...
  6. At what point are we going to say it's the manager?

    He's looking more and more out of his depth but we've been here before with previous managers, the bottom line is very simple, players such as Amrabat, Mount, Onana, Lindelof, Shaw, Dalot, Martial, Maguire, Mctominay and others are just very very average players, and the club can't move some of...
  7. Post match vs Bournemouth

    Cannot defend this anymore, the club is dead, unrecognisable, Ten Hag has nowhere to hide though after today, but the players are at best average.
  8. Mason Mount | 2023/24 Performances

    Did the club insert a Ballon D'or clause in the transfer fee?....
  9. Aston Villa appoint Unai Emery as manager

    Villa are a big club with a rich history, its good to see them doing well again tbh and they have a very underrated manager in Unai Emery.
  10. Marcus Rashford | 2023/24 Performances

    2 goals so far this season after signing his big contract, Shearer was correct, there's some real bad eggs in this Utd team.
  11. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    He is clearly trying to install much needed discipline and a better culture at the club and its quite obvious that some of the players who have been there awhile are not taking it very well.
  12. Club Sale | It’s done!

    Anyone else thinking, "I can't be bothered with this anymore"...
  13. Marcus Rashford | 2023/24 Performances

    Rashford is not as good as he thinks he is, certainly not world class, but he's just one of quite a few at the club who are deluded about their own ability, most of the players are not truly of the required standard to play for Manchester United at the highest level.
  14. The Incredible Sulk – also known as Marcus Rashford

    Wouldn't have lasted 2 minutes under Ferguson when we were a proper football club and not a commercial brand.
  15. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    This club is a victim of its own success, a classic example.
