It's fine margins, they didn't do anything in Europe and are marginally ahead in the league and they're not in line to win a trophy, and IMO they've a marginally better squad. It's in the noise. Neither manager is doing amazingly IMO so the fact you think Ange is doing a much better job I find...

It does. I'm not mad if somebody wants to make the argument that we have a slightly better squad, it's subjective. For me Son and some functional DMs puts them clearly ahead of us but it's an opinion. As for Van der Ven, he's a flavour of the month, I'll be proven right. Everyone hyped Eric...

Maybe but Walker was always strong and committed in defence even if his positioning was occasionally wayward and his ability on the ball fairly poor. With Van der Ven I can't see any strengths other than pace.

What, to pick 2 of their worse players and say they're not that good? Agreed. Spurs' squad isn't amazing but it's marginally better than ours in my opinion.

Not his job though in a functioning club. He can ask for who he wants but the director of football, scouts, CEO etc. should decide.

Do you not think a goalkeeper giving up 3 goals in a game is a bit unusual? Particularly when he won the CL the year before? Onana's shiteness in the CL was an outlier this year, even compared to his shiteness in the league in the first half of the year.

Spending money doesn't mean you have good players. Udogie cost £20m, Antony £80m, who would you rather have bought?

If Van der Ven weren't quick he'd be playing in the Championship. And Porro is a poor defender for me.

But Van de Ven is shite and Bentancur merely decent. They're not key players. If they are you know you're not going anywhere.

Again, you don't really seem to understand much about how football works. All teams lose to bad teams sometimes. Our European campaign was very disappointing but mainly because Onana repeatedly shat the bed. He's finally starting to look comfortable here, and is now looking a (mostly) very good...

Go and post your combined Man Utd - Spurs XI in my thread, I'm interested to see it. Or you can do Villa if you like.

No but I didn't realise Casemiro and Shaw were basically done, nor that Martinez would get injured for more or less the whole season. Without those guys, who were 3 of our top performers last year, we're pretty fecking average as a squad. I think we've finally started to shape the squad in the...

Who've you got? Mine: Onana Dalot Romero Martinez Udogie Kulusevski Bissouma Mainoo Garnacho Bruno Son Martinez doesn't really have a right to be in there because he can't stay fit but I really don't rate Van der Ven, looks garbage other than his pace. I guess you could pick Evans... Shaw is...

I'm not sure our manager is underperforming though. Villa and Spurs have better players than us, as do Arsenal and City.

I don't think you understand the concept of a tournament. Or winning.
