I dont think they are going to sack him. I feel they will probably give him atleast one more season. Thing is even if he was sacked, the next manager would still have the same cowardly and average at best squad to play with.

He was my fave player along with Scholes from that classic team. Never feel he got the credit he deserved because of that first dodgy season. He had numerous fantastic and high scoring seasons in a row, and along with Yorke made one of the best striking duo in Europe at that time.

I said we would regret getting rid of DeGea. For all his supposed faults, his numerous saves per match kept us in games. This isnt happening with Onana, and thats why i predicted our lowest league position in years this season. Lets see what happens.

What frustrates me more than anything is i'm sure pretty much all of us knew we would probably have 3 or 4 dodgy seasons while the club transitioned past SAF, but did ANYONE honestly think we would be THIS far past SAF's retirement and we are as far away from the club we were under him than...

I said we would regret selling De Gea, and would finish the lowest in the league for decades this season. People just didnt appreciate how many games he saved us points with his sometimes ridiculous saves, many of them per match. He was like our Casillas in the Galactico days when Real only...

I'd love to know what the positives were he saw, and actually thats a little worrying thing to say for me, media talk or not.

I'd argue we were more exciting to watch under Ole, or atleast we would blow away a team every so often. We havent really been good under any manager post SAF to be fair, not really, not like the SAF days anyway.

:lol:

I honestly dont understand what the point of Mount is, or why we even bought him. And i'm not basing that on this game.

He talks a good talk but i honestly dont see much difference under him. I mean to be fair we have been pretty shit under everyone post SAF, but the point still stands. People on here were saying he has no excuses this season, so lets not start making them already.

Its not hyperbole though is it. We could of been the best team of all time under SAF, and we still would of lost the odd game, played bad in the odd game. More often than not though, way more often than not, we would be blowing away teams every week, especuially teams like this at home. These...

Why do managers find it so hard to instill a style of play with us post SAF?. I mean when a manageer goes to another club, after a while you more often than not see a clear change in style of play, not with us though. In fact the only managaer post SAF that actually had a clear change in our...

I hate how even when we win games these days, it can feel frustrating, and feel like a loss in a sense, or i get the same feeling as a loss, if you get me. Its really frustrating.

Honestly we could be playing Accrington Stanley, and it would be a 50/50 nail biting match with parts of the game where we are second best. And its like this no matter who we play. I'm sick of it to be honest.

Awful performance, as usual. With todays player prices, we honestly need to spend like a billion to get us challenging on all fronts like the old days, i'm being serious as well.
