ESPN bigging up Maguire earlier…. Great one performance
Except we still used to win stuff in our boom n bust cycle.

Ten Hag coming out slating his players again. His line now is that Utd isnt for everyone and if you cant manage the standards you should play somewhere else. Amusing him talking to Casemiro about the standards required at a big club

Maybe that should also be said for the coach.
That’s why Casemiro left a big club (he knew his standards weren’t good enough anymore) to go to a smaller gig. Ten Hag is preaching to the converted.

A win stops things coming to a head too prematurely. Ten Hag is not an elite level manager, and they will never get back to the top with him at the helm. They have a bit of hope after a win, but they are crap. Long may it continue.

Their version of it is amusing.
While being consistently shite and in a permanent bust cycle since Taggart retired, the boom is only evident when the Norwich scarves disappear for a few weeks.

It really highlights just how many unmotivated wankers that club has when the coach thinks the only way to get things moving forward is to criticise them in public. Let’s remember this isn’t the first United coach in recent history that has gone down this path.
A bad environment turns good people into wasters. You don’t need a Jose prison strategy of taking someone out on your first day to prove you mean business, but you need to root it out as soon as it shows it’s head, and publicly so. When Klopp’s history is written his treatment of sakho will likely be placed on a similar level as the stories about people bleeding for him because they are two sides of the same coin. At Utd, Woodward was the guy who needed to be rooted out. He’s only been gone 18 months and so I think it will take a while longer yet to clear the club of the funk he helped bring even with the right manager at the helm. Questions will need to be asked of ETH of if he’s tha5 guy with the players he’s advocated for and enabled

The worst signing ETH has made at Utd… Was Steve McClaren
That guy is just an older generation/version of Southgate… Football people, but not, and never will be winners, with the winners mentality required to drive people around them forward

Him and Kidd have rotated the benches for years you could throw others in there. Not sure what they bring now. There are the perennial assistants

I don’t mind ManU winning. It gives them a bit of hope that will be crushed down the road
The longer Ten, Nine, Eight continues to under perform with his squad, the more of a realisation to the new owners, he is not the man to bring any glory back to Old Toilet. He in effect, is slowly writing his own resignation letter to the new board, on a week to week shit-show basis.
Maureen is on the verge of being sacked in the next week or so, maybe he will be an option for them again :0)
Juve apparently the club interested, 6 month loan paying his wages and then a £60m move in summer is what’s being reported

Italian club. It’ll never happen.

They left out what summer. My bet is the summer 2027
It won’t be for 60 bastard million if that’s the case.
They will get him on the cheap, subsidized wages, see what’s what, and if they like him and he does well, he will go for an undisclosed sum i.e. half of what they say they will pay.
It’s the Italian way. They see the Prem as the rich kids, and Man Utd even richer than most again, so they will not want to solve a Man Utd problem at their own expense.

They’ll do the usual Italian thing and dick them along each season with a loan and option to buy, then when his contract expires they will take him on a free
