Even hilarious when his fans come up with "he won 3 trophies"It still cracks me up when Jose talks about the Community Shield as one of the trophies he won with us

My post is the only context I have.
I am surprised that LVG does not take credit for getting us to the final of the Community Shield, I think he has a little bit more class than Jose.
We had a poster called Scholesy who took every opportunity to say Modric was gonna be world class. Poor bugger got so much abuse. The hero we didn’t realise we needed
Most posts by United fans on youth prospects. You'd think we walk the FA Youth Cup and churn out 5-6 world class 18 year olds every season, given the hype and bluster we enjoy throwing around our academy.
Some people still think we shouldn't have sold him.
Even though he averaged about 3 goals a season with 3months injured every year since.
Rashford's potential being 'peak Darren Bent' was one of the funnier ones I've read.
"Got to give credit to Ole, he has improved. "
The arrogance of the Ole outers.

One of my friends was convinced Tom Cleverley was better than Paul Pogba around 2013 time.
I liked Anderson & thought he had a future with us long after most gave up. I finally gave up myself in 2014.
Another friend of mine thought Rooney was still world class in 2016-17 & hated Mourinho for dropping him.

People said that about Januzaj too. I remember people laughing at the disrespect of a potential 50m PSG bid too. I think he ended up leaving for about 12m.
Peak Martial FC was a fecking weird time.
The “Martial FC” stuff is really weird. He’s a good player like, but we’ve had far better centre forwards over the years who have not garnered such obsessive fanfare.
I don’t remember “Rooney FC” or “Van Nistelrooy FC” back in the day.
Opinions on Harry Kane were pretty funny when he started breaking through. Especially from Arsenal fans. Mediocre striker with a punchable face on a lucky streak which would soon end but the Kane train kept banging them in and they all had to eat their words 
Liverpool fans who say Bobby “no goals” Firminho is world class
That Ole hasn't massively improved his coaching and tactical methods since arriving
This is a new one and is hilarious. I mean, coming from Norway to arguably the biggest job on the planet, he was obviously going to have to learn on the job and improve. Same with a player coming from a lesser league. Actually disrespectful to Ole too; if you read up on him you'll see he's always trying to learn more from other coaches and tweak his methods.

Martial FC only exists because a bunch of fans don't rate the guy
Same with Ole
On here I’d say Darmian getting into a bunch of Europe combined 11 posts. Lindelof and Bailly being better than VVJ.
Don’t think I posted it here but I was convinced Caulker would be a good PL CB.

Don’t think many people choose to be biased, it just happens (often with football fans because they watch more of their own player and get a skewed perspective). Plus you’ll see countless threads here (and elsewhere in the football discussion world) where countless threads will be made to justify or explain a players bad form, and the same leniency won’t be extended to a player of a different club.
Dan James' best position: Left Back
LVG's foundations have gone into footballing mythology.
The fact that Jose ripped those foundations out the moment he took over and improved on LVG's results, is a question that these people cannot answer.
His best position is actually sitting at home or in the stands.
I’m very much bipartisan when it comes to our manager, but the idea that he didn’t have the requisite quality in his squad to avoid dropping so many points to the bottom 10 last season is comedy of the highest standard.
Well, you've got another poster who is doing the same for Greenwood.Same with Tom Cleverly
I got dogs abuse on another forum around 9 years ago for saying Cleverly was nowhere near Paul Scholes quality
every year we have 1 or 2 future world class players coming through apparently
I do remember the Martial fanboyism. It got to ridiculous proportions...
Yep. I remember that.
And apparently he was/is going to win the ball on dor. He'd be lucky if he broke into the top 30 shortlist.
I also remember Luke Shaw - after he broke his leg, he reputation increased and by the end of the season, in which he played about 10 matches, he was proclaimed by many as the best LB in the World.
Some fans on here claimed that the reason why we didn't win the league that season (where we struggled to score goals), was because Shaw was injured. Had he not got injured, we'd be league champs. They forget that he was a LB and not a striker.
Myself, I predicted that we'd win the league title with Jose. Unfortunately, we only got 2nd, but that does remain our best league result, post Fergie.
Yes... Left Back (at home)
Yeah it was odd.
It came about because there was a group of people that couldn’t accept any criticism of him and demanded he played despite him offering zilch for a while. If anyone dared say something negative they’d be hounded. It was really quite strange.
Since then, some have changed it to make out it’s simply people who like Martial and want him to succeed, which makes no sense because everyone could see the potential and wanted that.
Who?
That sounds like a made up player name.
A lot of people bought into the whole Fergie theory about Phil Jones being the next Duncan Edwards in the early 2010’s.
I started that thread and I’ve never been Martial FC, the context which was missed at the time and has definitely been lost since was that I’ll always favour developing exciting young players over shoehorning in superstars and for me a key component about supporting this football club will always be enjoying the journey of wonderkid to world beater. There will always be more joy for me in a Cristiano Ronaldo scenario than a Robin van Persia scenario.
Pexbo
Fair points though, and not actually very martial fc. I just assumed it was to be honest.
Yeah this.
