We are so shambolic, I am not doubting even the shittiest of sources now.
I am getting worried he will abandon ship. He will still be highly thought of and get another great job easily. Not many could blame him. I truly hope he does not, I think he is the man to turn us around for the long term.
So obvious he is doing a "Ramos 2015" to get a better contract.
Oh no, legend is leaving.
I believe the agents are leaking these news just to get better contract for their players.
Man Utd being linked with every Tom, Dick and Harry.

Fecker wants a new contract so decides to take the piss out of us.
It's open season right now. Must be difficult trying to establish who is genuinely interested or just using us.
RM is ruthless. They would sell if we stupidly offer what they ask. Unlike Barcelona, RM don't owe wage so the player can easily be Di Maria out of the door.
Yeah, we're so far from that level to be used to get better contracts, I'm guessing the theory then was that we'd pay more AND still fight for honours, now we just pay more, Madrid would just say "go ahead".
Better off linking yourself to City/Liverpool/PSG these days.
The fact that this has to be pointed out to some is mind boggling.
I won't lie they are clearly the genesis of the problems, but this particular transfer window - which is what we're talking about, they have got a structure in place to do the deals the "transfer committee" and the manager wanted. They've put all the eggs in the De jong basket, rightly or wrongly. They counted on Ronaldo for this season only for him to shove two fingers up at them. The buck is firmly with manager and committee this season. I'm also not saying sack them either, btw, it's clearly the first time this structure has been in place, so it will take time to get right, but they're not off to a good start.
It has been reported that ETH wanted Ronaldo gone weeks ago and Joel would not let him sell him.
To be honest, we did buy one!
This (the comment you replied) is what I was referring to. Seen a surprising number of Glazer sympathizing over the years.
we're having the piss taken out of us. Below a laughing stock.How do we enter possibly the most important transfer window of the PL era and make it worse than what we started it with? How Sway?
Oh yeah, they had a truly horrible opening to the season last year. I remember watching their shitshow against Brentford and thinking "this can't possibly last long before they fire Arteta". But you'd assume they started winning because they had a good plan, stuck to it and it worked. We on the other hand appear to have no plan, and to stick only to carrying on in the same way we have.
What they did last summer was quite brave. They invested heavily (more heavily than any other team in fact) in a number of signings who were clearly designed to address specific needs, and none of whom were can't-miss, big name signings. They could do that because Edu and Arteta worked on the basis of a common vision of where they were and where they wanted to go, and were backed by the board. Not just for acquisitions, but just as critically for departures. Can we imagine something like the Aubameyang operation happening at United? Avram says no.
He won’t be. Liverpool don’t have Nunez next week. Do you think they’ll lump the ball to Jota?
I’m not sure why people get so triggered by the media?

Do you know why the media use us in instances like this?
A question with a question..
The point is I’m not sure why anyone is arsed about what the media publish. It’s always been the way. It’s no big deal.
My question answers yours
of all the clubs that could be used for these stupid stories, why us?Because United still remain one of the biggest clubs in the world and biggest in England. Whatever happens they generate interest. It’s easy to make headlines. Even more so when the club is struggling.My question answers yours
Still no idea why fans get angry at the club and triggered by it. It’s almost as if they are new to following the club.
Now you're talking about one game where Nuno is suspended, with both Firmino and Jota out injured.
Liverpool is at high level. They don't necessarily have to play long ball there. VVD is capable of pin point switch play to Salah, TAA, so they don't need to play percentage long ball, and basic pressing game. What they can do in later state is spamming cross from left wing over, and have Henderson, Fabinho overloading this side with whoever their CF would be.
What is about future? Would you say when Nunez, Firmino available they wouldn't do so. Other teams wouldn't use that tactic? Ain't you contradicting now? Championing Evra, Vidic short term set back, then using one off game where opposition lack option to say teams wouldn't target a flaw in long term.

People are in denial about it because of our on field issues but Manchester United still remains the biggest club in England and top 3 in the world. Anything in the news with Manchester Uniteds name on it creates a buzz.
Good
My thoughts exactly.
Surely nobody believes we're after fekin Casemiro. More chance of a meteor hitting Earth right about now.
Must be contract renewal time. No doubt his agents using us a bargaining tool.
I just don't ascribe to the idea we can't do anything because of the Glazers. May as well just have no nuance to any discussion about our structure.
By one person, who's a known mardy arsehole. Feck knows if that's even true or more of an opinion with him.
I'm just pointing out that he's not the first defender to have a couple of bad games early on after a move to a new league. Mascherano and Cannavaro managed fine. Martinez we will have to wait and see. The PL is nowhere near as physical as it used to be and judging a player after two games, particularly one where De Gea put 2-0 down, seems silly. If he was such an easy target why didn't Ajax get stuffed in the CL last season?
Nah that was our first choice targets. Now we're after Toms fifth cousin, Dicks neighbors friend who played football for Sculthorpe and Harrys sisters pet groomers brother in law.
Considering we have pointlessly chased de Jong for for the entire window. I can believe they would aimlessly chase casimero
Yup. Sickening
At this point I feel like this was the plan though right? Tell ETH he needs to sell likes of Garner/Bailly, loan out Hannibal/Amad etc in order to bring in his preferred transfer targets. Sell several more of the squad, sign no one, leaves us brutally lacking in squad depth (and actual relegation candidates in the event of an injury crisis), BUT, at least its quids in for the Glazers while punishing the fans for daring to protest against them...
I'm hoping I can put an /s on this, but tbh I'm not so sure anymore...

I hope he does in some ways, I'd love someone to state publically who has been at the club what a disaster it is in full detail.
