The Man Utd thread (3)

Actually, their attacking stats have been great throughout the season, which completely surprised me. Now they have a coach whose only job is to play to the strength of the players at his disposal and, more importantly, he genuinely cares for the club - both are a complete opposite of Amorim’s behaviour. Combination of those two traits will prove to be crucial for CL qualification in the season where their top four rivals are being wildly inconsistent. They will finish above us just because of that, I’m sure of it - it’s up to us to finish fifth.

Title next season then…

Not really tbh, I just don’t like them being anywhere near our level..

Or is it that we’re nearer their level? :unamused_face:

Shouldn’t worry about them, anyway. Each time they bin off a manager, the caretaker enjoys a little bounce and suddenly “they’re back!”.

What are the odds that Carrick has a decent run, gets appointed and backed in the transfer market then they slump again and he’s out before next Christmas?

Interesting to consider where his previous club is now. He did have some decent seasons there ( a 4th I believe and it seemed he would take them further but then they regressed) The same Boro team is currently second, under two managers as well.

Let’s see what happens, this kind of result is as old as football itself. It was very very good to be fair. City seemed to be blowing hot and cold though. It’s Arsenal next.

Yeah, it was a derby - Solskjaer and Amorim won some of those games even at their lowest (and against a much more consistent City side in Solskjaers case)

It was an entertaining match with the right winner.

And Dalot should’ve been sent off very early in the match…

Was just about to post the same, cannot fathom how that wasn’t a red, knee height, studs 1st and so easily could have damaged Doku’s knee and ligaments with the impact force.

I wonder if she’s ever tried three at the back?

I see they are having their annual protest this weekend.

Norwich will be happy for the scarf sales.

United have announced Casamiro will be leaving at the end of the season when his contract expires.

No big surprise there. This summer could be a bit of a watershed moment for them as a number of their higher earners not performing well could be on the way out due to expiring contracts

That’s a shame to be fair.

Hopefully they just promote Ugarte to his starting spot.

Unfortunately, they’ve been reliably linked with Anderson and Wharton, which suggests they are learning their lessons. Also, we’ll give them a helping hand in qualifying for CL again by removing ourselves from the top 5 race.
