Lindelol, Baby Butcher, Sliding Portuguese, Jonny past it Evans and a Spuds reject...state of that defence

Harry Kane must be licking his lips

Yep and I’d say he can’t wait for the match either.

Jesus in fairness ETH has had some ball of shit to contend with.

-Antony off the field carry on
-Greenwood situation
-Sancho’s mental health
-Ronaldo’s carry on
-Maguire issues as club captain
- Ownership shite

Has any manager had so much non-football related drama to deal with?

He’s had more dramas in 12 months than Klopp in 8 years and none of them his fault.

Other clubs have a proper scouting systems, director's of football and other football people working behind the scenes with the board. Man Utd have had 10 years of accountant's making football decisions.
The club is a joke. A basket case. I can only seeing it getting worse until it's sold.

Ten Hag should have listened to LVG. I think Dortmund were interested in him. Would have been a good move for him. It would have been terrible for Ajax though, as they would have lost out on all the silly money United have given them.

No football people running the club . They continue to overpay for players like Antony but in ETHs defence he couldn't have seen the sancho and Greenwood situations and Ronaldo was brought back to shift shirts so a money making decision by the board. Maguire wasn't leaving his huge packet even though he knows the manager doesn't want him . The last 3 managers have all said the place is a shit show and you'd have to wonder why ETH took the job or was it the huge wage offer he knew he wouldn't get anywhere else.

That thought has crossed my mind in the last few weeks.

I'd say he just had the notion that he'd be better than the last few guys. Probably has massive self belief, like most football managers.

Whether it's justified remains to be seen.

 

[Eastwood]

Another issue is I the feeling some players really struggle with tactical instruction. I don't think the high press will work with these players. Ten Hag is wasting his time doing that.

 

[Philby]

A year and a bit into his reign there's a lack of identity about how the team play. Not terminal but would be worrying for manyoo fans.
