He really isn’t good for us, his major plus point is not suited to our current team and his deficiencies are exposed by the fact we are very rubbish at defending. Bad mix for a “traditionally” limited goalkeeper. I also think he’s actually a bit pants at generally saving stuff, but I think the...

Right now and with quiet resignation, that darkest moment for me is yet to come, namely the day the Glazers confirm the club is not for sale and this circle jerk of being an increasingly lost and directionless club continues. Other than that, it seems easier to pinpoint highlights rather than...

Played well enough to nail down his place in the next game, is all you can ask of him and ultimately more than Shaw has done since the Euros.

Possible, feel it’s a bit arrogant to say it absolutely won’t happen, player form over a decent timeline doesn’t suggest or support a short to medium term improvement, toxic atmosphere, new management, manager in a new league struggling with belligerent or mentally beaten players. Inability to...

Don’t get the we need to sort out this and that first, he’s a huge problem now if we want to play the way the manager wants us to. Outside of the occasional worldie, he sucks at pretty much everything you need a modern goalkeeper to be. The truth is we need multiple positions fixed and in no...

Every time we start playing out from the back you just know it will end in either 1) a goal conceded 2) a chance 3) a throwin or corner to the other team. It’s been like that for 3 years and 3 managers if not many more. It’s not exclusively DDGs fault but he is monumentally inept at it. Stop...

Sell, what’s the point in holding onto him, marketing would likely be the only reason and that values likely to fall of a cliff as quickly as his absolutely awful performances have. We need a reboot and that involves clearing out most of the team, deadwood, especially ,so when we can sell them...

Average pace, poor ability to find space, can’t beat a man on the outside, seemingly lost any close control we all thought he had (though not sure even that was really considered a strength), cannot recall any game he’s played where I thought, there’s a player there or in retrospection any...

It smacks of a mid table club move, oh wait yeah, as you were.

Same aimless play on the pitch, same inactivity on the sidelines, it’s hard to be upbeat. Maybe things might improve but I’m struggling to see how with the squad we have, the budget and the likely incomings, but it’s especially hard to see with players that can’t play even play sympathetic let...

I watch games like a neutral, long gone are the days of anticipation and excitement. I am more surprised with our fleeting moments of decent football than with the vast majority of mediocrity we exhibit in game now. But….. there’s still an admittedly receding but lingering hope that Ralf will...

Jamal Blackman, was named in a squad in 2011, loaned out every year and never played a game for Chelsea in 10 years. He finally joined LA Galaxy last September. At least he was a youth team player and for him, carved a reasonably profitable career, if spectacularly unadventurous.

Is true but remember that Liverpool had to change their ownership structure (twice) to achieve their current level of relative success. I don’t see any circumstances where this will happen here, and with zero confidence that our current owners can implement let alone see/identify the required...

Depressed, no. Sad at being resigned to watching rubbish football, yes. So much so I have deliberately not “forced” or even influenced my 7 year old son to support United, and happy to let him find his own team (within reason).

There’s been a severe incremental decreases in performance since RRs first game. During that time there’s been not one semblance of change of tactics, strategy, team selection, formation and more importantly “philosophy”, so how many more games is acceptable to wait for the appearance of an...
