I just feel you people need a good technical director to support ETH sha cos him go still make mistakes.
Arteta at first was the one doing point and kill for players and he was landing Willian and Luiz for us until Edu was appointed and they have to go back to drawing board while clearing their earlier mistakes (Willian and Luiz)

I feel ETH might tow same part if he doesn't get a helping hand no matter the amount spent
100%.

Antony alone is enough for them to take complete transfer authority away from him but nobody in the group has confidence or the know-how.

Omorr, those days no easy. Almost everybody dey write essays after every matchweek grin

Your moral support was really needed then, now e be like say your fellow comrades need am too grin
The difference is that Arteta had other proper football people that were advising him on how to build the team. ETH has nobody to do that which is why most of his acquisitions have been suspect. He brought it upon himself though.

Exactly.
In fact, if I was Christ.obam, na arsenal example I go use hammer Odi.zeey wella cos it is a perfect example.

Before the overhaul, almost all arsenal fans in our thread wanted Arteta gone. Most of us couldn't believe he could play beautiful football like this
That was when i called him Adete. The days of Torreira being the midfield savior and the days of Pro-Guendouzi vs Anti-Guendouzi. The days of defence wins titles vs attack wins titles. Arsenal fans were humble then. Na me dey come give una moral support and counselling. grin

Jodera, one more question. You guys didn't have a pattern of player for two years right?
They were playing rubbish on several occasions that time. Just go to their thread in 2020 and 2021. Even Jodera an Aarsenal fan is telling you that now. Another thing that is as clear as day is that whatever wretched pattern Arteta was playing then it is miles away from what they are playing now.

I support your putting fire under ETH but Arsenal is not the example to use. Arsenal is actually an example someone supporting ETH will use. They played diabolical football for a couple of seasons before Arteta struck gold in the later part of 2021-2022.

The ones who said his six goals and 2 assists was a decent contribution, the ones who were trying to compare his impact with Grealish. The receipts are there grin grin
Grealish sef get for hand but mehn as a United fan we have to concern ourselves with our own issues. The issue with Antony is that there is no evidence at any time in his life that he would ever be a productive player. I am deeply concerned that neither him nor ETH has realized that cutting in to shoot 90% of the time is a kolewerk mode of operation.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 2:14am On Aug 24, 2023

I like how you are choking ETH but it is obvious you don't really watch other teams. At least you don't watch Arsenal. Until early 2022 Arsenal were playing one kind gbala gburu style of football that nobody really understood. Go and check the posts from their thread from 2020 to 2022 and see how fans were abusing each other, attacking and defending the dull and defensive football Arteta was playing. However, once he got his players in the style changed remarkably but it took a while, and apart from getting guys in he also had to kick many out.

However, 3 points remain:

1) ETH has no excuse playing the kind of diabolical football we have played so far this season. With his reputation as a coach he should do better with what he has.

2) He has to take some (if not most) of the blame for the poor performance of our buys as nearly all of them have his imprint on them.

3) If we don't get a capable DoF we will keep throwing good money after bad.

Afrodoc2 this is that moment I was talking about. grin

We were leading 1-0 and it was 5mins into added time. Too much balls. Thank God he’s also decent when it comes to saving the ball.
Harrison plays more high-risk football than Onana. There was one game he nearly gave the MUTV commentator heart attack. Onana might have ice in his veins but i don't think Harrison has veins.

Check out Dino Klapija

We're competing with RB Leipzig to buy him for the academy. 16 years old. Centre forward.
Yeah I saw the news. Until then.

We have bad luck with CFs from our academy and the most recent hyped strikers we signed were Mejia who is a Dr, McNeill who is flopping, and Hugill who is just okay at Under-21 level.
If you count our own recent high quality lower age products you have Greenwood who is being blackballed, and Drs James Wilson and Will Keane.

LoL. It wasn't as bad as Onana's. He punched the guy's face but still got a hand to the ball. Onana no touch ball at all.

He also saved the penalty that ensured our qualification for the next round. And j saw him making some moves that made my heart jump into my mouth. grin

I saw about 3-4 Nigerian names in the matchday squad.
Yeah from the highlights he played quite well.

Ogunneye, Shoretire, Oyedele. Habeeb Ogunneye was RB. Very highly rated at Under-16 but when i watched him in detail at Under-18 over the past 2 years he was just solid. I am not seeing enough ability on the ball and he is a bit small. He is still only 17 though so maybe there is room for significant improvement.

Oyedele has massive roadblocks blocking his path to the first team. He is Gore's age and older than Mainoo but both are ahead of him.

Shoretire's case is a mystery.

They won their EFL match on penalties yesterday. And they played better than they usually do- or they got a better result. they could've scored 3 with better finishing.
Your boy Harrison did an Onana in the last minute and conceded a penalty. We want him to copy Onana but not like that. cheesy

He's actually not running scam, he just chose a specialization and took the gambling highway.

He mostly forcasts Basketball games which is his forte and only bets on other people's football and tennis games occasionally.

He is also wise enough to bet on few games instead of amassing so many games with hope of winning millions with few thousands.

People like that are professional gamblers, they lose alot and win alot. People only focus on their wins while neglecting their losses. There are times the guy bets 50k to win N40m for straight two weeks and he will be on a losing streak. Then he can win N50m the third week with just 36k stake.

I used to know one man like that, a man who is maried and his first born was already in the university that time. He is a professional gambler who plays pool, Baba ijebu and bet9ja. I heard the man usually has at least one tokunbo car in his garage he is yet to drive. So if he starts going on a losing streak and almost going broke; he will sell that tokunbo car and he's so sure before he finishes spending the money on staking he would've won back enough money to buy the car and even get back on his feet on the street.

I only pity those who do not have his deep pockets and want to emulate him. Its those people u will see lamenting say sportybet don collect their house rent grin
Okay this sounds more plausible. Several quiet losses and a few loud wins. Very few people make significant profit from gambling in the long run. Gambling is a potential disease, and nobody knows who has the addiction gene for it, so the best thing is to never start. It destroys destinies and wrecks families.

Naah. They're not running scam not in the real sense of what scam means. They're betting influencers yes cos they drag traffic to and away from your bookie. That's normal all over the world.

Someone like Ekitipikin I give it to him. He looks for obscure options and isn't fixated on football like the average Nigerian bettor. He plays mostly baseball and basketball

There's one other nigga that introduced me to Basketball for that your Australia earlier in the year and I made quite a killing. There were weekends I won as high as 240 odds and I won 100 odds several times. If I didn't know about basketball I would think he was running scam too.

Only thing I advise is if you no get like them no put body like them cause all fingers are not equal and they also lose too like everyone else
Interesting. Well i can't really argue with you guys as you people are OGs in the game. I don't understand how you can consistently beat the odds like that. Gambling, betting, crypto, and all the versions of MMM are things i never go into.

Lmaoo reason am nau. No be Ekitipikin dey steady knack 50m every 2 months. At least twice I don see am chop 100m in a 1 week span. Which FinTech wan run that one?
I don't know much about betting/gambling but i suspect Ekitipikin and others of his ilk who appear to keep beating the odds with astronomically high winnings are running some sort of scam. What the scam is i am not sure but it sure looks suspicious and illogical.

I won't be surprised if they are running a PR scam with the betting companies.

Rio Ferdy didn't say pim about the Greenwood ish on his vibe with 5 channel.

Stephen Howson said United should let him go with a tint of sadness.

Mark Goldbridge was the most vocal I've seen but he didn't really say much. To him, United shouldnt reintegrate him but he proposed a loan for a year.

Don't remember exactly what McKola said before the announcement.

Deep down I'm sure they all want Mason. They wished Mason didn't do that shiit and they're hurting. They just can't support him in public.
All those guys you mentioned wanted him to stay. Only the young guy with long hair out of Howson's crew seemed to truly want him gone. Goldbridge will yarn round and round and then say loan him out for a year and maybe things would have changed in terms of public opinion by 2024 (revealing his true feeling). Like you said, they couldn't voice their true feelings on the issue publicly.

Haha.

Most United fans globally want him back but the cancel culturalists are overwhelmingly powerful in certain Western countries. That’s why I called it a tyranny. 5 angry Woke extremists are more powerful than 50 regular people who oppose their views.

It was funny watching practically all the United fan channels saying that they didn’t want him back including a few that it was obvious really wanted him back but could not say so because they didn’t want to be cancelled. Watching them tiptoeing and tap dancing around the subject was a bit hilarious.

It's like Tory Lanez supporters still arguing that he is innocent. That's largely irrelevant at this point. If the Crown decide to let him go then what sense does it make for Blimey from Wankfordshire to keep moaning on SM about it.

If he's not in jail then he should be allowed to use his skills to earn a living. Ok you chased him out of Manchester which I understand but to suggest he can't play again at even a smaller club to feed his family? I will never support that
Blimey from Wankfordshire? grin

But that’s why they call it cancel culture nah. Only prime communist era dictatorships like Stalinist USSR and Maoist China fit disappear people the way cancel culture does. Only this time instead of a dictatorship of the proletariat you have a dictatorship of the frustrated, unfulfilled, and inconsequential. There is no room for forgiveness in cancel culture.

Yea at England camp.

E no get sense right from time. Unfortunately for him, his lack of sense and discretion ruined him.

Even though I feel he got unfairly treated in the whole matter, in the grand scheme of things, may be he probably deserved it to learn his lesson in life, because the guy is going to get worse as he gets better and popular in football. May be this is life's way of humbling him early in life to be a better person in future
When he messed up on the England trip I remember saying that he needed extra intervention before things got out of hand but people here were defending him that it was being overblown. Maybe if they had done something then this would not have happened.

That you are disciplining a child does not mean you do not love him. It is to prevent stories that touch, and this is a story that really touches. I made peace within my heart after hearing that audio last year that Greenwood would probably never play for Manchester United again.

This is actually a reasonable conclusion

A man named Jesus or Yeshua lived at some time around 2050 years ago. He was of low birth in a very inconsequential part of the Roman empire, He claimed to be the messiah and had some people follow him, He was killed

Those above are facts

Whether he now possess all the powers or actually did those miracles are another discussion

And comparing how Alexander the son of a Noble man who was handed to one of the greatest teachers and every step of his life was documented vs someone born to a carpenter in a backwater village

Its like saying Malia Obama whose every step of life was documented from birth given that she was born to 2 upper middle class/High class people vs Bisi who was born to a carpenter in Gbongan who was barely documented nor reckoned with for most of her life
The worst kind of atheist is an ignorant atheist and that guy has shown himself to be robustly ignorant in multiple fields.

Jesus that was just one of so many religious teachers in a backwater Roman province is the person he is asking for contemporary history books on. If not for his followers that spread his message would anything have been written about him even after his death?

Comparing the contemporary documentation of a man that was killed by a minor Roman governor in a backwater province to that of the greatest conqueror the world has ever known is the height of ignorance.

Tacitus a respected Roman historian who served Roman emperors who were persecuting Christians wrote that Jesus was a historical figure but we should not believe that but accept trust me bro on NL.
