  1. Casemiro | 2023/24 Performances

    Another in a long line of dreadful signings, the drop off from last season has been stark but I don't think he was amazing last season either. Those that proclaimed him as the second coming of Christ, obviously had their expectations lowered by the performances of the past decade.
  2. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    Completely agree with this, it's a haphazard way to try and win games and as you say it's unsustainable. Players shit the bed on a constant basis but our tactical setup beggars belief it really does. Anyone wanting him to stay next season is either a sadist or an ABU because no right thinking...
  3. Omari Forson | 2023/24 Performances

    It's quite something how he's getting on the pitch ahead of Amad when he's shown absolutely nothing of note in any of his minutes so far. Very strange.
  4. Amad Diallo | 2023/24 Performances

    Lucky for him and his future United career, that Dutch fraud will be sacked soon so he'll get a fair crack next season hopefully and if he still doesn't get a look in, then maybe he's not up to the required standard.
  5. Omari Forson | 2023/24 Performances

    He definitely didn't look ready for that start today. I'm not seeing anything special with him and if he's getting a start over Amad, when ETH said both trained well then it's a headscratcher tbh.
  6. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    He's utterly delusional if he thinks he's going to be a part of this project moving forward. Hopefully Onana and Antony follow.
  7. Unpopular Opinion : Onana isn’t Fabrice Ondoa, or very good

    After watching him play since the start of the season, I can honestly say, there wouldn't be a huge drop off if we stuck big Harry Maguire in goal. Onana is rigid on shots, clueless positionally and erratic on crosses. If Ten Hag goes at the end of season, I guarantee he'll follow him out the...
  8. The New Official Republic of Ireland Football Thread

    It's a valid point and one which I thought about before posting but the FAI have been a shambles of an organisation for donkeys years and we've not been producing world class players for over 20 years so that's why I said a proper Irishman would find it hard to turn down the offer.
  9. The New Official Republic of Ireland Football Thread

    To turn down the chance to become senior manager of the country you played for would be next to impossible for someone who considers themselves Irish. The other names mentioned are such poor outdated managers that it's pretty depressing times if there's not a left field surprise.
  10. Marcus Rashford | 2023/24 Performances

    If he was performing like a competent professional footballer this season this story would be a non entity but as we know he's been abysmal so any slight misdemeanor will be highlighted. If he keeps stinking the place out with his bad on-field attitude/performances he'll be the next Lingard in...
  11. Wigan Athletic vs Manchester United

    Rashford is awful as per usual, Højlund is not a clinical striker and it was a joke that Onana started.
  12. Antony | 2023/24 Performances

    Brilliant reply mate, and as you said, the very fact that poster thought it was a good performance tells you all you need to know about some people's standards.
  13. Antony | 2023/24 Performances

    He shouldn't be anywhere near the squad let alone the first 11 but here we are and I think his inclusion in the team is reason enough to dispense with ETH. A nothing player, creates nothing, scores f**K all and gives up possession constantly, it's a crime that he's a Manchester United player...
  14. West Ham United vs Manchester United

    Passive, toothless, abysmal, rinse and repeat
  15. Liverpool vs Manchester United

    I've been following United since the mid 80s and I can categorically state that this is the least confident I've ever felt facing Liverpool at Anfield. When you think of the drubbings we've gotten off them recently and our abysmal record against them since Klopp has been there and it's very...
