It was inevitable when it went 3-1 that they’d get back level. Spineless.

Looking at Liverpool’s form and Arsenal’s run in its hard to see how either will stop City

Just can’t see a way forward with him. We (likely) have an even lower bar of top 5 this season and we’re 9 points off with 8 games remaining and Liverpool, Arsenal and Newcastle still to play.

Two episodes in and I’m liking it. I’ll give the changes from the book a pass for the moment. It’s probably necessary to make the cold hard science of the book more engaging for a one hour episode format (still though some key concepts are really only brushed over). Giving it a more western...

With the number of players needed it makes sense to maximise our budget considering the FFP impacts but I doubt we’re only looking at these types of players. Nothing wrong with canny investment.

Hopefully taking a hit in January will give us a little more wiggle room in Summer. Clearing wages and some small fees coming in versus no incomings will help balance the books. Then in the summer getting rid of Martial and probably Sancho fully will have our wages looking much better...

Honestly it feels less like contrition and more like we learned from the shit show of the Sancho affair playing out in public so have shut it down with a definitive statement. Given our current form and position you don’t accidentally go to Belfast for a night out. He’s 100% taking the piss...

Meh. The season is a write off. Even if we buy a striker we won’t have enough to make top 4. We’re 11 points off top 4 (essentially 12 with the goal difference). No striker is gonna fix the problem but paying an inflated fee will have an impact on our summer transfer budget. Let’s just limp over...

Just can’t see it either. The mess that we’re in at the monent is a much bigger task than replacing VVD and Salah. I doubt he needs a pay day and he knows he would burn all bridges with Liverpool fans laid he takes the job. That would be 10 times worse than Benitez at Everton

I mean your club didn’t see fit to fire him all the while this has been looming. These things are rarely down to the actions of one single person and I think we all expect that City will never realistically be punished for this; It was all Berrada’s doing and we’re just so glad he’s gone and we...

I agree but there are already positives in that we’re going for someone with a track record as opposed to someone who brokered the take over deal. Also how many times has an individual been held accountable for FFP breaches / accounting regularities. The penalties are normally on the club...

But surely they knew that the first hurdle for ownership would be the fit and proper test imposed by the Premier League. They’d have seen what Newcastle went through and would be extremely naive/stupid to think they could just hand over a bag of cash with no questions asked. Its extremely...

Hire a director of football who will analyse the squad. Evaluate who they want to keep and who is disruptive or just plain isn’t good enough. Based on those players they want to keep; what’s the best formation or system to get the most out of them. With that formation in mind what positions need...

Honestly at this stage I want to see United play consistent football with an identity and style that is evident no matter who is picked in the starting 11. If we have injuries we should still be playing the same way even if we lose. Make the players fit the system and not the other way around...
