To me, it looked like they went more direct when they went behind. Seems to me like they do not trust in the style enough to play it when losing.

The opposition have some part in it of course, but the disciplined way they were moving the ball, not taking too many risky passes. You can see the players are trying to play possession football. Some of our players are not suited for it at all and it shows. The style reminded me of the first...

Was quite clear in that first half that the team had changed to a possession style. It makes sense to implement it now to assess how players and the manager handle it. It is no coincidence that the switch happened in the first match after Wilcox was appointed. I think Berrada, Ashworth, and...

How about something to Fu-Gee-La by Fugees?

De Gea is not press resistant at all. You know you get the ball back if you press him. This has been a big reason why we fail to control games. With Onana we go from one of the worst at ball playing to one of the best. No more hoof and pray. I don't think people appreciate just how much this...

Testimonials were given to give the player a financial boost at the end of his career. They are not really needed anymore. Phil Jones never got his testimonial either.

I don't think Ten Hag was looking for a new keeper this transfer window until the backend of last season. De Gea was just giving the ball away every match. It became clear that he needed to go.

Nothing story. De Gea was probably offered a reduced wage as a starting gk. Ten Hag saw that he could not hack it anymore and told the board he needed a new keeper. The board now offers a contract more suitable for a backup keeper.

It tends to take less time if you are a multi-billionaire. go figure.

No press from him. Looked good in the buildup but no energy from him today.

Who let the Wout out? Wout, Wout, Wout, Wout, repeat ad nauseum.

You won't really be supporting a state financially by going to games/buying kits. They will be out 6-7 billion from the get-go and unlike sane owners won't care about profits. Sportwashing on the other hand is a problem.

Sure if you buy with the intent of selling in 10 years time with the plan to increase the club value significantly. Feels like a gamble though. With a new stadium possibly needed and who knows what else is in disrepair behind the scenes. Who will buy it next If your price tag is 12 billion...

United's biggest problem is the price tag. The people buying United would expect an ROI of at least 4% annually on their investment if it were invested elsewhere. That number is not realistic if the price of the club is over 4 billion. The Glazer family got 1.2 billion over 17 years. About 70...

Nothing is to be gained to own the longest yacht or the biggest plane. You are underestimating the vanity of the rich.
