High-energy and maximum aggression. Nothing less will be tolerated from any player, regardless of (supposed) ability or status

I recall at the time people accused us of being Brexit FC and favouring British players....I bet I could find hundreds of posts from people deriding the club for the Rice link, whilst the wonderkid they signed on FIFA from the Chinese 3rd...

It does also come down to pressure though and unrealistic ambitions. I am still absolutely convinced that OGS and Jose were on the right lines in their first 24-months at the club. Both put decent foundations in-place and had us finishing...

It's because many of "them" (us) are confused. Under LvG, Jose and OGS, folks repeatedly called for the manager to be sacked, and some posters rallied against this, correctly identifying that their performances were as good as they could...

Knowing this team, we'll lose to Bournemouth and Palace etc...and beat Arsenal - handing Liverpool the title and sealing our Europa Conference League spot in the process

Contrary to popular opinion, we have some pretty decent players...maybe not world beaters, but a clear cut-above at least 12/13 teams in the league.

You can't question the impact of his in-game management Every sub he makes almost immediately turns the game in favour of the opponent

Because he doesn't know how, he's managed Bayern's reserves, regional teams in Holland and Ajax at a time when they just had to turn up to win the Eredivisie. Even last year, his in-game management was appalling

That's not true though. The media (and our fans) relentlessly held LvG, Ole and Jose to account to the point it became counterproductive. Both Ole and Jose came 2nd, and if you go back, half of this forum hounded them for not winning the league...

Yeah but that's too simplistic a view in my opinion. Moyes failed because SAF had left an ageing, injury-plagued side - and let's face it, SAF was going to be impossible to replace. LvG was too old / not in it for the long term. I felt had he...

A nice bloke but a fraud of a manager who has made a career out of nearly beating Spurs

First thing I'd do is tell Rashford to clear out his locker....there's no way I could make calm and rationale decisions about anything whilst having to look at him jogging around picking his arse

Bruno has a very specific set of skills that should be utilised better by the coaching staff. If you look at his key passes, assists, ball retention etc...its all about what you'd expect for a creative midfield player - the problem is we have...

Could also be that he was promoted at a time when the club lacked mentors or experienced people around him who could have helped him in his new role. From various sources, it seems like Murtough was well-liked and did some good things at the club.

Criminal that a lad living a few miles from our stadium, a lifelong United fan, was allowed to move to Chelsea for a relatively low fee whilst we spunk cash left right and centre And yes, City would have sold to us, Guardiola himself said not...
