We need all the quality we can find. So many bang average runners.
If I was allowed to go on holiday every season when I was injured under a different manager, and then the new manager stopped me from doing that, I'd probably want him gone as well if I didn't give a shit about United
Something funny about that? You think he should stay if he's made that demand?
Are you implying you'd like him to stay? Please Lord give me strength.
The difference is that Ralf might actually know what he has doing. There is a bloke that I know who worked in Germany for a long time who knows Ralf quite well, this guy just told me to give this time. Ralf doesn't take shit from anyone and has everything methodically prepared and planned. That might actually be exactly what we need at the moment. I at least am prepared to give him time with this mess we are in.
There's nothing wrong with that. He isn't actually horrible. On his bad day we still get a minimum level of creativity through the middle. DDG is the only player who has any claims on consistency in the squad. Every single one was a debut season wonder or has only clocked up a couple months of good performances. Pogba is unlikable to many so it seems to really stick out. If RR says he should stay I'd back it.
That's not a direct comparison between Ole and Ralf but I don't get the club's communication. If Ralf was meant to stay longer then why all this bs about him staying short term then moving up in the hierarchy ? I'm afraid the fans might just being played for fools
Yes I agree with that. Just come out from the start and say that he is here for short term with the possibility of a long term tenure.
I think you misread the tweet mate, he wants Rangnick to stay. It’s the opposite of what happened when Mourinho got sacked.
Think woodward still pulling strings this season start, so that would be on him. In fact Woodward doesn't leave until next Tuesday, so technically still in charge now.
I don't precisely remember the timeline but isn't that what was hinted around the time Rangnick was appointed, including his initial press conference?
That is why we bought Pogba though. We even made a pitch to him about how we could increase his social media popularity and stardom. We actively look for players like Ronaldo for marketing reasons. I totally agree with you though mate. The sooner that we become a football club again, the better.
I find it hard to see how we contain that now though. We can make any player in world football a marketing star so it doesn’t matter who we sign. The club are always going to maximise marketing whoever plays for us.
Ralf did it the club never did.
Yeah, I can't believe that already have Cavani we thought "do you know what would make us loads better and help our young players develop? Ronaldo" . It was a marketing and fan placation stunt.
But has the club told anyone that Rangnick wasn't an option beyond this summer or did we collectively assumed it?
No that is what we had problem with.
Is this the same Pogba and Griezmann who won the World Cup or are we talking about someone else here?

So we make up problems to get upset with? Because realistically the club shouldn't make any definitive statement in November/early December when there is little chance that they have a clear idea about who is going to be available this summer and willing to come. You essentially have a problem with the club not shooting in his own foot.
Seriously. If you know nothing about Football you would think that these players didn't win anything and didn't compete at the highest level for the vast majority of their careers. That's pure tomfoolery.
Maybe we're keen on Enrique/Mancini - that would mean Ralf having to stick around until at least December.
Probably because there's no club out there crazy enough to want pay him and his agent what he wants.
They also still value the football aspect of things
Proves my point even more.
So no matter what your point is proved? At no point you consider that Football is a team sport and that players play better when they are surrounded with better players, better coaching and an environment that fit them?
So Pogba can only perform surrounded with one of the best squads in the world like France has? Doesn't sound like a good player to me if he needs to have gold around him to play decent.
It's amazing that you try to play some sort of cult angle when you spout hyperbolic nonsense. The amazing part is that the player that you describe as mediocre has generally been considered by redcafe as our best performer during his time at the club which is supported by the MOTM stats. That reality should tell you something about his surrounding. And yes, if you want the best out of players and if you want consistent high level team performances, you need one of the best squads and one of the best manager in the world, how can fans of Manchester United even suggest otherwise?
Ah you’re right, I did. Read it first thing after waking up. Agree though, he should be off after the last few years of what’s been going on.
