If you ever have chance to listen to Garry Cook talk about the take over of Manchester City and the approach to wholesale transformation of that football club, and local area; it’s chalk and cheese. The crystal clear strategic intent and relentless focus on executing that into every part of the...

Shaw? I thought he played well in the latter half of the season and (finally) demonstrated his value to the team.

Agree 100%. It’s not enough to guarantee success but should be a very solid foundation for the team. For the first time in a long time.

At which point in his career? Celtic??

One manager fails to deliver in line with expectations = manager’s fault. Three consecutive managers fail to deliver = something more fundamental is wrong. We talk about United being this huge, effective commercial enterprise but no business I’ve worked in would let the following occur: 1...

Very odd logic there re Delph?! Also a frequent comparison as they were both Dutch goal scorers but I disagree with your pick. RVN was vastly superior to van Persie as an unrelenting goal machine. Ruud!!

In relation to the original post. Observing the contributions on here I often feel the underlying critical points are legitimate however the extreme manner in which they are sometimes expressed deflects from that. Some of the outlandish comments (often popping up early in a game) make me...

He scored such a variety of goals and always looked dangerous. Did he have a 'weak' foot? Certainly the most prolific and clinical striker I have seen play for United.

Looks like James is Munich bound? Personally glad that takes him off the board.
