  1. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer earns more than Jurgen Klopp

    Well, to exculpate Woodward a bit here: Imagine how the fans would have reacted if Man United had announced back in late March that Solskjaer would leave the club in the summer because they would not pay him 7 million pounds... after having won against PSG in the CL and 14 of the past 19...
  2. Ole Gunnar Solskjær | 2021/22 Discussion

    After Moyes, LvG, Mourinho and (so far) Solskjaer all failing at bringing Manchester United to the top again it's clear that we don't have as much a coaching issue as simply not a good enough squad. With our current players even Klopp and Guardiola wouldn't get far. In the end they do nothing...
  3. Tribalism in Football

    I like to have some banter with Liverpool fans and I dislike the club but I don't hate the fans or wish them ill. People who physically fight others over something as irrelevant as football should get their head checked. Same is true for those Liverpool/Manchester United 'fans' taunting each...
  4. For the first time since 2013,there is no light at the end of the tunnel....

    I don't even demand or expect us to challenge for the PL title for some time. All I want to see is clear progress, however miniscule it might be. And, please, not any more of the two steps forward, three steps backward from the past couple of seasons. Just like Klopp did at this mid-tier club...
  5. How important is IQ/EQ in football?

    IQ and having your emotions in check, is probably useful at everything you could do. In football, I believe that a high intelligence is especially required to become a great ball distributing midfielder. You have to quickly assess the situation, think through the different possible outcomes and...
  6. If SAF was still the gaffer, would he be competing with Pep/Klopp?

    For medical and age reasons, no. As a 77 year old, he couldn't stand the stressfulness of the job. But for tactical and coaching reasons alone, yes, of course. One of SAF's biggest strengths was his ability to adapt to new styles and tactics of the game. Do you remember when Mourinho dominated...
  7. Ole Gunnar Solskjær | 2021/22 Discussion

    Most important question I have, is Ole a cleanser? In our case it's more important whom to get out than whom to get in. As long as we have a plethora of highly over-paid bang average, Europa League kind of players, it will be hard to get some actually good players on top of that who might want...
  8. Alexis Sánchez | 2018/19 Performances

    A modern day Trojan Horse.
  9. Do we want to lose to City?

    As much as I dislike Liverpool... my love for United is stronger. I rather see us placed inside the top 4 and Liverpool win the Premier League than us lose against City and severely diminishing our chances of playing CL next season. Regardless of win or lose, what I by no way want to see is...
  10. Appointing Solskjaer was a mistake

    By now, I think it's clear that our main problem is not the guy watching on the side lines but the chaps playing on the pitch. Moyes' quality as a coach might be debatable but there's no denying that LvG and Mourinho are top-notch coaches. If they can't manage to shape our squad into a team that...
