  1. Lisandro Martínez | 2023/24 Performances

    On a related note - what is with the constant slew of real low-level news articles on United these days? Are these in fact interesting to anyone? Ineos don't like the look of some desks? WRITE IT UP Brailsford is conducting a review of a review of a review? WRITE IT UP The team misses a vocal...
  2. Onana has not worked out. We need a new keeper.

    That second Olise goal last night was another example of his poor positioning/awareness. At first glance it looked like a really great finish, but then you see the replay behind Olise, the ball goes into nearly the middle of the goal, and Onana at full stretch is nowhere near it..?
  3. VAR and Refs | General Discussion | May 15: Premier League clubs to vote on proposal to scrap VAR from next season

    Well this is hilarious though, we are absolute dogshit. But some of these decisions... the 'foul' on henderson was nonexistent, looked like Dalot got absolutely cleaned out for their third goal... I guess the foul on Hojlund though is yet more bullshit VAR technicality? Like they can't...
  4. Jadon Sancho | 2023/24 Performances | Dortmund (loan)

    yep I agree. Our rot runs much deeper anyway. Prime Messi wouldn’t sort it. (though if I could sign one player from tonight’s match, would be Ashraf Hakimi)
  5. Jadon Sancho | 2023/24 Performances | Dortmund (loan)

    Watching Sancho for Dortmund is both eye opening and depressing. He NEVER played with anything like this level of urgency and commitment in his time at United, he just looked totally fecking rubbish for us and looks so up for it here. Also Sabitzer putting in an elite level MF performance. so...

    Walker has such good form on the sneaky foul he even managed one AGAINST city a few years back for Spurs. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/kyle-walker-admits-raheem-sterling-9669538
  7. VAR and Refs | General Discussion | May 15: Premier League clubs to vote on proposal to scrap VAR from next season

    I get they can't give a corner, but surely having seen the contact, they can suggest to the ref he has made a 'clear and obvious' error - as the ref had given a goal kick, meaning he had NOT seen the contact. Then it would be up to the ref to decide whether the contact was enough to warrant a...
  8. VAR and Refs | General Discussion | May 15: Premier League clubs to vote on proposal to scrap VAR from next season

    The sky Ref Watch really is all kinds of pathetic. I didn't see any ref watch after the Chelsea game and two powder puff penalties? Kambwala fouled Solanke in the buildup to our first goal, that's a talking point? I don't really get all the hullabaloo about our penalty either, the player had...
  9. Post match vs Liverpool

    Well. ridiculous penalty to concede again, a crazy challenge to make but from my views there was no contact and the player stuck his leg back to try to initiate contact? I guess even without contact with a challenge like that, it's a freekick around the pitch so what you gonna do.
  10. VAR and Refs | General Discussion | May 15: Premier League clubs to vote on proposal to scrap VAR from next season

    Waiting for the ridiculous justifications of these decisions. They were genuinely super soft penalties, barely any contact. I mean Walker's brush in the direction of Rashford the other week was more of a foul than these two. Whether or not 'we're being screwed' by decisions all season, I think...
  11. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    sky sports news only exists to foment transfer speculation, it's probably 90% of their traffic.
  12. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    Succession planning at this club is such a joke. From Ferguson onwards obviously. I don't know how anyone right-minded can think that ETH is going to bring us forward, sure we have had injuries but the style (if you could call it that) is beyond awful, the signings awful, the commitment insipid...
  13. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    Jeez. Nobody in this ETH team wants to put their foot on the ball. Nobody wants the ball, it's sideways and to the front men quickly and hope something happens. Can't remember a United team playing so ridiculously poorly week in, week out.
  14. Post match vs Tottenham Hotspur

    Notes: Rashford looking 75% back to it in the first half, which is great to see. A constant threat. He’s even going on the outside and using his left (would rather that than the constant cutting in). Having Garnacho on the right gives us much better balance, though I don’t think he was at his...
  15. Jadon Sancho | 2023/24 Performances | Dortmund (loan)

    Wow, given about 20m radius of room around him in the box, he looked a world beater. In 80 matches for us he looked like someone had snuck their kid into a men's sunday league game. He's absolute gash and I couldn't give a rats if we get nothing for him and he never plays for us again.
