  1. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    agreed.
  2. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    I think once the football is right and the players are fitting the system the personality aspect will take care of itself. Think we've been in thrall to that cult of manager for too long. If the team are sweeping all before them and playing swashbuckling football the United fans will laud and...
  3. Who replaces Ten Hag?

    I think Ineos will make the change and look for someone homegrown and young. Who understands British football and works in a system. Particularly someone who understands United. I wouldn't be surprised to see Kieran McKenna taken on as a coach who will implement the Ineos preferred method of...
  4. Is the adversity faced by ETH unprecedented?

    can see a bit of the early SAF years in all this. mess of a club. massive step up in terms of profile. poorly assembled squad with some world class players underperforming. unruly players hugely popular with fans that need shipping out. poor player culture all round. spending big on a few...
  5. Do you read anything into pre-season results?

    this is a shit interpretation of what I wrote
  6. Do you read anything into pre-season results?

    we beat Liverpool 4-0 last year I think so.......no
  7. How good was Ryan Giggs?

    Peak Giggs was unplayable. And his peak lasted a long time. Doing it over and over for many years puts him amongst the greats. Watched him many times. Giggs at full speed with the ball was jaw dropping at times and what he had was great intelligence particularly later in his career. Knowing...
  8. Rasmus Højlund | Signed for United

    'McCarthy, who was famed for his composure in front of goal during spells at Ajax, FC Porto and Blackburn, has also been credited for Rashford's dramatic improvement in the heading department.' Benni....'hold my beer'
  9. RIP Tom Clare

    RIP Tom Clare. loved his writings
  10. Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

    yeah but we have not heard anything like that from the player. all of this is coming from sources. meanwhile United are quite obv still there. you have to assume as much as we think we are run by muppets ETH would have moved on from this if he was hearing something different from the player.
  11. Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

    how bout as long as it takes to find out that is definitely not the case?
  12. Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

    seems obv Frenkie has a contract that says if he states his desire to leave Barca are not on the hook for any further payments So his people have told him to continually say he wants to stay at Barca. Putting the club at fault for offloading him and thus owing him a shed load of wages Meanwhile...
  13. Frenkie de Jong | The last muppeting lap

    the Barca statement looks like an attempt to tell the fans its De Jongs fault if he goes. We really really love him and dont want to sell him but unless he agrees to drastically cut his salary he will have to go. But in that case its all his fault for wanting more money. seems like a familiar...
  14. Ole’s farewell interview

    I can only imagine our amazing PR division thought it might get us lots of clicks and convinced the man it was the right thing to do. as with everything last few years it got them engagement at the expense of doing the right thing
  15. Ole’s farewell interview

    The absolute state of our squad when he took over. He made us fun to watch again and gave us some great times. But his limitations were obvious a couple seasons back and the notion he would learn on the job was silly. All of whats happened is an indictment of our structure and the decision...
