If Glasner is their primary target, then that still tells you more about the decision makers at United than Glasner himself. With all due respect to him for his career so far and work at Palace by large.

Palace will feel pretty fucked over by Glasner if he does decide to ditch them here. Especially after kicking up a fuss over Guehi.

Had to laugh when I saw Hojlund hit a brace for Napoli yesterday. Maybe he wasn’t the problem either?

It’s not a fair comparison. At Napoli he has a lot more talented people setting up chances for him. Players like McTominay…

This can’t be understated. No manager can succeed at a club where the basics aren’t right.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s cost-cutting regime, designed to make Manchester United profitable again, epitomises that financial landscape.

That approach has come with consequences, not least concerning the academy building, which dates back to 2002 and had a refurbishment in 2017. There are allegations toilets have been left uncleaned, bins unemptied, and pitch perimeters worn and littered, with complaints made that there are not enough maintenance staff employed to maintain standards.

There was also an embarrassing episode in which Manchester United’s Under-13s asking to borrow socks and shorts from Everton when they visited Carrington for a match last month.

:joy:

This is seriously embarrassing, asking gear from a visiting club.

F*ck me, this doesn’t even exist where I’m from (where you’d be lucky to have 11 kits that are all the same and if something was missing, we’d get extra from the older boys and then tapes to help it not falling down!).

Reminds me of one of my proudest moments - lending Gordon Strachan’s son my spare of socks, LFC socks, once he realized he left his at home and experiencing his dad’s furious response to his son wearing liverpool gear during a game.

My football career peaked at 10 years old

It’s become a cliche, I know, but he really is the stereotypical businessman who knows the cost of everything and the value of nothing.

Like our amateur side offered shirts and shorts.

Problem with any type of austerity is it basically ruins, basically if you deliver savings it has to benefit in some other way. Literally no point using it to pay off debt.

Businesses and the country are not Joe Bloggs with a credit card.
