I am in genuine disbelief over people still defending him, and this entire mediocre show, just utter disbelief. I swear people won't be happy until we hit absolute rock bottom and even then they'll still be screaming "Give him more time!!!!"
Yes the squad isn't the best, but to say the entire squad isn't good is rubbish, De Gea is still a world class keeper even if he hasn't reached the heights of previous seasons, Wan Bissaka was quality for Crystal Palace, Maguire was great for Leicester, Rashfore is a massive talent, as is Greenwood, Martial, James etc, now, no, as I said, the squad isn't great and we definitely need to invest in key areas. However, if you really watch the games, the problem isn't the players and their talent, it's the absolute lack of a game plan and tactical play outside of "run fast counterattacks!" Everybody is clueless on the pitch, which has nothing to do with player ability but more to do with how they are set up to play, you think they are passing sideways, backwards and long balling it all the damn time because we have some average players in the squad? No it's because we clearly don't practice any kind of positional play, we don't practice any kind of attacking strategy other than getting a few key players to use their physical attributes of pace when they are in a position to do so.
Great managers elevate players to a higher level than perhaps their skillset should allow them to be. This is what Fergie did, everybody loves to be so nostalgic on here yet forget we had players like O'Shea, Park, Fletcher, Gibson etc, none of these players were particularly special were they, even though we may have loved them, but it didn't matter because Fergie got the best out of them, we don't need world class acquisitions in every position, we need someone who can actually coach worth a damn more than anything
The fact that we are even still sticking this is almost an insult to Pochettino at this point, christ
"Let's stick through it things will get better!" Like what the hell is this Dreamland nonsense, you cannot provide a single bit of proof this is what will happen. As others and I have said, yes the squad situation isn't ideal, yet Mourinho got 2nd and a Europa League, when Solksjaer first came here everyone was buzzing he had the team "purring" but as time has gone on its obvious at this point he's been found out to be the majorly under qualified manager he actually is.
We're going to waste the best years of Rashford et al if we our ways up. I mean how is it possible the likes of Wan Bissaka and Maguire are actually worse since joining us after coming from supposedly inferior teams, what their skillset just suddenly dried up did it?
