Good Craig got his c'nuppins
We are shit. We will finish lower half. None of our remaining games matter. We are doing nothing in the cups. Roll on next season.
Oh I’m so sorry to hear that. Must have been a tough time. I admire your commitmentIt’s the stuff we give up to go each game (like quality time with the kids who lost their mum last year, makes it harder for me to go), but they’re the choices we make as fans.
Hope we put in a top performance for your visit mate
I’ve just been in North London for a gig and seeing the smug looks on gooner faces after their result makes me long for the days we were just as happy watching our team.Left home at 04:30 this morning and just arrived back. Performances & results like that really make me question my sanity wanting to go over 3/4 times a season. Fans deserve better.
Agreed but it realistically isn’t going to happen.Total overhaul needed. Needs new striker, new WB, need AM, new CM. 5-6 new players to replace this bunch. Just start selling everyone, we won't be even close to top 4 in the next 3-4 years.
This is why I want to see Amorim tweak his formation ever so slightly with the two 10’s becoming wide players as Amad and Garnacho are both better wide where they have space to get the ball then drive at the opposition and if they’re doubled up on it gives space to the striker or one of the midfielders, also if Amad or Garnacho came inside from wide then the wing backs can overlap giving the opposition a problem in which way to goAmad never has a good game at 10. Please just play him at RWB only.
Was going to say similar, but more general - felt like changes for changes sake.Just a thought , Mainoo looked ok playing behind Hojlund, why change something that was reasonably useful. Mainoo will never be an out and out striker, it failed which should surprise no one, when the player has never played as a 9. Hojlund at least had someone to take pressure off when Mainoo played as a 10. Is it that simple, change for change sake isn’t a solution.

On top of that you probably took a shit, too. You can’t win.Shit traffic, shit coffee, shit slow build up, shit performance, shit cold weather, shit formation, shit injury, shit result, shit use of petrol, shit day.
Maybe it was a satisfying shit though, so not all bad?On top of that you probably took a shit, too. You can’t win.
Its strange how our targets have dropped over time, from winning the premier league being a target, to qualifying for Champions League, then it changed to qualifying for Europa, to now now avoiding a relegation battleTarget for this season has to be not getting relegated

We need a manager who can manger these players. Over time we’ll add a few players but in the meantime Amorim needs to straighten out them out or step aside.
On paper, our players are better than Crystal Palace and are certainly not 0-2 worse.
It's also ridiculous for anyone to say that you know he's going to be a star.How do you get to that conclusion after watching him for what the best part of 10 games? Ridiculous comment.
Thank you.All the other scouts bow to your superior knowledge based on a few games in a terrible team.
No i wouldn't sack him nor did i say that. I think eventually he will be fine once we spend another 400m on players. My point is on the now, he has to be doing a lot better, not coaching the team to a 17th place finish.The manager found a team which was already not up to standard.
Do you want to sack him already ?
Its a lot less ridiculous to think he's going to become a good to great player than throw him on the scrap heap after a handful of games. You'd have gotten rid of Vidic and/or Evra then right?It's also ridiculous for anyone to say that you know he's going to be a star.
Thank you.
I'm glad they agree with me.![]()
Definitely not!Its a lot less ridiculous to think he's going to become a good to great player than throw him on the scrap heap after a handful of games. You'd have gotten rid of Vidic and/or Evra then right?
Haha ok, let see how Yoro goes before we sell him after a handful of games.Definitely not!
I could see they had potential.
I agree entirely but can’t see how we will manage it without some sort of miracle. Everton are on the rise since Moyes took over and even Wolves are getting their act together. We will either be relegated or very close to it if things don’t change soon.Target for this season has to be not getting relegated
And this is the new Tinkerman Coach, named Ruben Amorim!Just a thought , Mainoo looked ok playing behind Hojlund, why change something that was reasonably useful. Mainoo will never be an out and out striker, it failed which should surprise no one, when the player has never played as a 9. Hojlund at least had someone to take pressure off when Mainoo played as a 10. Is it that simple, change for change sake isn’t a solution.
Look at the table! United have almost double the points of the 18th placed team...there is literally zero fecking chance of relegation.
Shite form yes...relegation! no, laughable to even mention it tbh.
There is no chance we will be 6-8 points above relegation in May. None.Everton in 16th are within 3 points of us, Spurs and West Ham above them within 2.
It's very conceivable that we lose to both Spurs and Everton this month and find ourselves in 15th or 16 before March. We're not taking all six points from those two matches, that's for sure. We'll likely end the month closer to 16th than we are today.
In March and April we've got Arsenal, Forest, City, Newcastle, and Bournemouth, along with Leicester and Wolves. I think it'd be fair to pick us in the latter two, but you'd be crazy to pick us in any of the former five. What do you see us taking from those available 21 points? Surely not more than 10.
It's quite possible we go into May sitting in 16th or 17th, only 6-8 points above the drop zone, set to face four teams all sitting above us in the table, two of which might be fighting tooth and nail for spots in Europe (Chelsea and Villa).
Conventional wisdom suggest we'll gain enough points by accident to avoid a serious threat of relegation, but you never know with football. Look at what happened to Martinez yesterday. One or two more freak accidents, Bruno or Amad go down with bad injuries, it could get real dicey.
I actually doubt we’d get relegated even if we got no points from now on. The bottom 3 are horrible.
It's been a theme. We already have more points than the best relegated team last year did (Luton had 26). Prior to that 18th placed Leicester had 34 in 2023, Burnley 35 in 2022 but Fulham only 28 in 2021. It's been a while since more than 35 points were required to stay up.Thankfully.
