  1. Eredivisie 2024/25

    Didn’t think our 2012 bottle job could be surpassed. I was wrong….
  2. Manuel Ugarte | 2024/25 Performances

    It is quite a common occurrence on here. I put it down to people just get excited over any signing regardless. They then can’t see the forest for the trees when someone tries to pick apart a signing. I wouldn’t say I was 100% against signing ugarte. I think he was probably better suited to...
  3. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach | Thread locked during matches

    Think the problem is that the system doesn’t suit the players. Apart from Dorgu we don’t have wing backs: Hojlund isn’t a CF who can do the complete forward job. We don’t have enough technical ability in our central midfield area to get away with playing with one less in there: Garnacho and...
  4. What’s going on at Nottingham Forest?

    Confirmed in Europe for next season though right with that point? I don’t think they were ever getting Cl but feck me their deluded fans sure thought they were. They were always gonna drop off when the pressure was on and teams clocked onto them but they’ve guaranteed a top seven finish and...
  5. Club ownership | Senior management team talk

    Incredible how bad this ownership have done in regards to results and transfers. I didn’t think it would be anywhere near this bad. By some distance our worse ever league performance. Kept on ETH too long and then the guy they’ve replaced him with has picked up the worse league results in the...
  6. Manuel Ugarte | 2024/25 Performances

    He’s been terrible for a few weeks now let’s face it. Looks like a little boy in league games. Doesn’t have the physicality or speed of thought to compete with even bang average pl midfielders. Put him in a system like this where he has to take responsibility for ball playing and it’s a recipe...
  7. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach | Thread locked during matches

    He’s just not got the hang of the league at all. Theres too much physicality and compactness for us. We just don’t know how to negotiate these games. Think we’ve got no chance against Spurs tbh. Europe has suited us because all these European teams want to attack, press high and play football...
  8. Manchester United vs West Ham United

    Spot on. People don’t realise how much the Europa league has weakened without cl dropouts. The level of teams that would have come into Europa in any other season would be stark. It’s weird but a lot of those teams, Lyon, Bilbao, Sociedad are much much better to watch than some of the PL...

  10. Ange Postecoglou

    And You can narrow that 2% down to supporters of West Ham, Arsenal and Chelsea and that’s it. He’s a sore loser who’s been found out in the league when I think deep down he was confident he’d do well. Now he’s just lashing out at everyone on his way out. He’s an absolute prick.
  11. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach | Thread locked during matches

    Yep. Game after game he looks so irritated on the touchline, shaking his head constantly. He comes out weekly and tells us we're shite in the league and that he himself has been shite. He tells us we're the worse United team in history (league wise). He tells us the Europa League wont save the...
  12. Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur | Europa League final build-up thread (May 21st)

    Dragusin? :lol: Don’t think that counts tbf. I wish he was playing.
  13. Manuel Ugarte | 2024/25 Performances

    Think he’s played himself out of the team for the final Imo. I’d prefer Bruno deeper or even Mainoo in there. I think against Spurs we need players who can use the ball better as well see a lot less of it and will be relying on counters. We need players who can make incisive passes. He can’t do...
