  1. What one single action would make you a ten Hag fan again?

    ETH failed me on recruitment, on training and preparation, on pre-game tactics, OK on in-game tactical changes. None of that can be changed, or significantly improved, during a season, except a sudden improvement on remaining result such as N straight wins, will we?

  2. Man United is the highest net spending club in the world over the last 10 years.

    This was because we have fans keep on criticising the Glazers for not spending, that they were taking dividend from the Club, that they were too commercially minded and not investing in players. Here come Sanchez....

  3. Southgate or Potter - who would you prefer as our next manager?

    NONE of the above

  4. All managers post Fergie weren't good enough

    Managers past their prime, is not an easy statement. You can definitely say Rangnick is on the wrong side of the slope, but would you say the same about Carlo Ancelotti? At least not in 2021. You can argue on personality and management style of LVG and Mourhino that may or may not be suitable...

  5. Post match vs Liverpool

    Regarding the Chelsea game, do you mean we were open and kept on attacking in the dying seconds? The same question on Brentford as well? On the Liverpool game I would at least accept Parking the Bus may not be the best option with so many minutes to play. Beside, I would agree if you say Dalot...

  6. What exactly are we good at?

    chatting up the nurses

  7. Post match vs Liverpool

    The fact that we conceded so many penalty in last 15min, with those obvious sloppy mistakes, means lacking fitness / concentration. I don't think concentration was the cause, fitness is.

  8. UPDATED!!! United vs Top 6 - An Injury/Availability Analysis - Still Happy With 6th?

    WHO caused all these injuries? Poor summer games. WHO managed our summer games?

  9. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    What is the logic behind all these argument? Do someone mean ETH will keep his job if we beat Liverpool? Because this is all he needs, just 1 win against Liverpool and no matter how shitty he is, he can keep his job? If you/someone argue ETH can keep his job as long as we keep CL (which is...

  10. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    Nor my 2nd, 3rd, 4th choice neither. Southgate is a mid-table club manager, no better than Potter.

  11. Any player in our squad you won’t sell for 100m?

    I think the intention of using 100m as benchmark, instead of the term untouchable, is that every player has a price tag. No-one saying Mainoo or Garnacho are anywhere near that price range, but simply the reason that they look good and are looking better every day. So not worthwhile to replace...

  12. Garnacho: What is his potential?

    Forgotten about Sancho?

  13. Managers' leeway for defensive tactics

    Ole may have been right about the change, but why DIDn't he fell back to counter-attack in Oct/Nov, when it clearly didn't work and very likely costing his job? He practically had the same squad as 1st season. ETH prefer more open play, and might have problem with the inherited squad in 1st...

  14. Lindelof at left-back

    Dalot's passing with his right foot, is about the only bright spot of our entire defensive line. Only a fit Shaw can offer something similar (with his left foot)

  15. United have conceded the same amount of goals in open-play as Man City in the league so far this season

    Yes, because it tried to draw conclusion from a section of the game that suits his/her argument. What about other goals that we conceded from set piece? How many goals have we scored Big Sam's team would normally concede much less goals, but do you want Big Sam, or worse, want MU playing like...
