Oh cheer up United. Just 6 points behind the city! That’s huge progress.

I think you take the armband from Bruno and give it to Rashford

Wolves showing Utd what a new manager bounce is supposed to look like. Utd are not this bad. A moderately good manager should be doing a LOT better than he is doing.

Other than Wolves, the big winners today were Marcus and Ten Hag.

United needs a new manager. Oh wait…

Reminds me of another upstart young Portuguese manager from a few years ago

Yup. Literally all he does is tackle and pass the ball sideways.

He’s revered as a God over on’t Caf.

Andre Villas-Boas.

It’s almost a shame that two big clubs’s disasters are taking up so much media space (well, it’s fun though!) I would have liked them to talk more about Forest and their amazing season.

Why are pundits so certain Amorim is a good manager, big difference from Portugal to the Premier league, but for them he talks well so he must be good

Any updates on United having a top 4 squad?

He may be a very good manager, but it’s not exactly a dream scenario for anyone to come in and turn around the oil tanker in the Suez canal.
I am open minded. Their trajectory is so dreadful that I think it’s a gamble who ever they appoint.
It’s not just the football, it’s the entire pestilent mood, player composition, the dressing room, expectations, the fans, owners; all of it is so toxic.

Villa and United have the same GD, which cracks me up

Worse thing is Ten Hag was terrible but his results were better than Amorim, but agreed the pool of players he has to work with, especially with regards to what they have spent is shocking

The players he has are completely unsuitable for his preferred formation and he seemingly has no inclination to change things up. Liverpool, and all the other clubs who passed on him, have been vindicated already for having concerns about his ability to play different ways (which one of Arne Slot’s big strengths - his principles are based on winning the game not a system and formation).

No post match thread today?

Jesus Christ! Lineker sounds so rough on MoTD! Has the flu for sure!

Absolutely shite decision to send Duran off. His left ankle twisted as he was slipping so he involuntarily tried to arrest his fall with his right leg and accidentally stepped on Schar’s back. Complete accident.

What good is VAR if it can’t sort out stuff like this? Honestly it’s made things worse. They find extra ways of denying legitimate goals and also completely fuck up big decisions.

Even exchange: Mikel to manage spuds and Ange the Arse

Nice to see wolves making it out of the relegation zone. Hope Ipswich come out too.

Both of them play good football and that needs to be rewarded.
