I hope the crybabies at our club don't constitute this as manager throwing them under the bus

But, the pressure is on the board to get few signings in next 2 weeks. So, what does the Caf think? How many will we sign and who?

 

[Glorio]

Reality dawns! Operation clean slate hopefully binned.

 

[Scorpy]

Yes. Ragnick was 100% right when he said we needed 10 or 11 new players.

 

[devilish]

Murtough is busy digging deep in Juventus skip.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Yes. Rangnick was 100% right when he said we needed 10 or 11 new players.

A child could do it with 11 new players

 

[Joseunited]

I can see at least 4 outfield players coming in and a keeper to oust DDG.
Sentimentality needs to feck off, let's bring in players who are going to suit ETH's system

 

[el3mel]

Yeah, hopefully we can convince Rabiot to join us. Is Arnautovic still on the cards ?

 

[Vapor trail]

Well the club are supposedly trying to not overspend (having already done so for Martinez), I don't see how this is viable unless a Woodward approach is utilised throwing money at the first team relentlessly. United have made so much of the approach to spend big now it seems it's the only methodology that will rescue the season. Amazing that it took 180 mins of league experience for ETH to come to this realisation that the players are significantly below requirements.

 

[Samid]

Key word is 'quality' players. We need to aim several levels higher than the dross we've been desperately chasing for the past couple of weeks.

Honestly believe that we collapsed last season because we had players playing that didn’t think they’d be kept under Ten Hag.
Now they’re playing like they don’t believe they should be there. Something has to give

 

[fezzerUTD]

My love for RR‘s 6 months of utter facts and call outs will never diminish.

 

[Man-United]

Hope ETH is not choosing what he want. Ajax fans wasn't too impressed.

[Guapa]

Gonna take a few windows I'm afraid,but he's not wrong.

De Gea
Dalot
Maguire
McTomminy
Fred
Rashford
Bruno
Sancho

All got to go

 

[Castia]

It’s looking like a major feck up getting rid of Ragnick. We needed him this summer.

What a mess.

 

[PlayerOne]

By convince them he means pay them insane wages right? The United way!

Where was this in all summer? Why does it take a trashing for this to happen? It's all passive at this club.

This. It's about time we started seeing things as they are:. Our midfield is shit and our strikers seem to be done with our club. Fair enough - time to clean the slate.

Keeper is the elephant in the room here though. De Gea has been awful for a while now. 5 shots on target 4 goals against doesn't justify 250,000 a week. Need him to be stronger and better on the ball too.

 

[Rolaholic]

This was widely known months ago yet the absolute tossers in charge of the club thought that fact would somehow change after hiring a new scapegoat and telling the man with tangible experience with building up sides from the ground up to feck off...

Geniuses the lot of them

 

[RedRonaldo]

Its going to be Rabiot and Arnautovic isn't it? After we are leaving this so late.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Drain the swamp?

There was a tweet that said there was belief in the squad that some of the squad don't think they are good enough to be there and it shows.

We desperately need a keeper to put a light under De Gea's ass.

 

[M Bison]

Why the feck have we waited until we've played 2 games and been spanked in each, until we have come to this conclusion?! ETH really needs to learn and quickly.

 

[McGrathsipan]

Yes. Rangnick was 100% right when he said we needed 10 or 11 new players.

Anyone that said any different after the last two years is mental.

We're at the point where this group of players will never be anything more than a group on massive wages.

 

[DWelbz19]

3 players, in all, I’d guess.

Probably Rabiot, a striker (someone average like Morata, or that Bundesliga tree), and another Eredivisie affiliate.

 

[UnitedSofa]

Its going to be Rabiot and Arnautovic isn't it? After we are leaving this so late.

Rabiot I expect to be done by Wednesday.

We pulled out of the 2nd deal.

 

[Andycoleno9]

So evolution is not the way Erik? Ffs, every United fan knew that.

 

[Nickelodeon]

A footballing god wouldn’t be able to do it with these players

Sorry. But he insisted on De Jong for 3 months. Our starting 11 could have been greatly improved with De Jong viewed as the cherry on top next season.

No. Not saying this with hindsight, been saying it since early June.

 

[Cloud7]

Jokes and mocking them aside, we need a Barcelona type of summer where we really push the boat out and bring in a lot of new, quality players. Even if that limits what we can spend next summer, we need to raise the quality of this team now.

As for the argument about too much squad upheaval causing issues in the team, it literally can't get worse than it is right now

 

[Castia]

The scary thing is most of those players seem to have too much power.

Chelsea make mistakes but clear them up quickly, we seem to hold onto absolute shite players time and time again.

 

[crossy1686]

Apparently we've got £200m to spend and no one will fecking take our money that's any good!

 

[Lecland07]

Key word is 'quality' players. We need to aim several levels higher than the dross we've been desperately chasing for the past couple of weeks.

Will those players even come, though? I would say we solidified our position below Arsenal today, in terms of attractiveness in the Premier League. I would say we are sixth for attractiveness, and that is only because we can pay more money that the clubs below.

We need to make smart signings, but that will make no difference without wholesale shifting of the dross currently at the club.

 

[the hea]

Finally.

We need new quality players in the right positions too.

 

[Big Ben Foster]

Too late. All the good signings are off the board. Better to start planning for next summer.

 

[mitchmouse]

Not hugely impressed by his post-match interview. seemed to say very little and sounded rather muddled and have to wonder if he is muddling players. Wouldn't say what it was they didn't do that he told them to do. I want him to be more angry

 

[Stack]

In the meantime lets give the youngsters a run. It will take a number of transfer windows to bring in the players we need so lets make good use of that time and give the younger players some experience.

[Sultan]

I think the biggest issue with this group is a lack of fight, passion and tenacity. Do the players think they've made it and set up for life once you've arrived at the club? The basic mistakes players are making is somewhat confusing and numbing.

 

[fergiewherearethou]

So this guy needed 2 humiliations in order to realize that?
3 months and pre-season were fine and dandy till not, right ?

 

[fezzerUTD]

Drain the swamp?

Not possible is it with tweets like this, this morning :

There is a feeling inside #mufc that some of Ralf Rangnick's public comments about the squad have affected the players and Erik ten Hag has been quick to distance himself from much of his assessment, including that United needed "open-heart surgery" #mulive [@RobDawsonESPN]
