It's not difficult to figure out your evil stance.

Instead of blaming your Governors who collect huge sums monthly as security votes and falling short in their duties, you are beating the drum of war, so that you can later blame Tinubu/APC when things escalate in multiple proportions.

You Obidients clearly traverse with hypocrisy.

Swap Edo Governor and his action with Obi, all we would be seeing is, ''Obi is a peace lover''. "Obi knows how to calm tensed nerves" etc.
Obi just dey live rent free in that your head. Every discuss here you must find a way to insert Obi.

It’s not even about obsessing about Rashford but about him falling for the traps set my the press.

Those journalists must be thanking their chi for giving them such an easily manipulated person as Man Utd coach.
I don't think there was even a trap this time around, he was asked about Garnacho and he brought in Rashford.

Amorim isn't the 1st coach that would implement 3CBs Mid Season, neither would he be the last

•Conte, a staunch disciple of 3CBs, took over at Spurs in November and qualified them for the CL. He took over a side that had lost 5 out of 7 matches in the league!

•Tuchel, another astute disciple of 3CBs took over from Fat Frank in January, led his team to a top 4 finish and won the CL!

No excuses whatsoever. They came on board, provided their respective teams with the much needed "new manager's bounce" and boom... delivered the results they were employed to get. No meaningless interviews and chochocho - na just workings and ofcourse, results!

However, Man Utd's case must always be different. If we are not blaming Global Recession, it probably would be the latest policies of Trump or the long lasting effects of COVID - there must always be one excuse!


Even If we are to give Amorim or any UTD manager some leeway and excuse that the aforementioned achievements are unattainable, finishing 15th in the league after overseeing 27 games as the gaffer - for better context, 71% of the season, is just pathetic and reeks of sheer mediocrity!

For peeps that truly put the interests of the club ahead of sentiments and unncessary emotions, most would even find it plain ridiculous that such a terrible performance is being defended to start with! The thought alone makes one cringe!

We also firmly say NO to poor performances, mediocrity and the associated excuses!

Like you opined below, winning football matches is the topmost concern of any manager - let's cut out the sentimental and emotional BS we keep putting up in Amorim's defence

Amorim was swiftly contacted to stem the ugly tide of results under Ten hag at the early stages of the campaign. The idea behind Ten hag's sack was to proactively forestall a disastrous season that was already unfolding at that time.

It is also worthy of mention that nobody put a gun to his head to sign the deal. By appending his signature to that contract, he takes full responsibility for the team and shall be held accountable at all times.Maybe if was stipulated in the contract that his accountability starts from next season after the purchase of players or that he wouldnt be paid his weekly wages till next season, you might have a point.

Like I earlier opined, nobody even set any lofty expectations for him this season. He hasnt been given the immediate task of Matching liverpool, neither has he been asked to qualify for the champions league this season.

However, it simply doesn't make any sense if we are significantly worse off than we were under his predecessor who was sacked for poor results early in the season.
May your days be long chief. Such clear and reasonable summation with facts and examples all through. Let them keep defending the rubbish we're seeing, we'll see where it leads.

Meanwhile....


#mufc are currently facing the possibility of a £20m reduction in #PL prizemoney this season after dropping to 15th from last season's eighth-place finish, which many inside the club said was unacceptable.

Each place in the table is worth approximately £3m as part of the domestic and overseas TV distribution.

........that's why we're asking Chief to get fresh beans for the new Chef. LOL!

We're being served watery beans porridge, and you expect us not to show discontent?! Our grievance is with the Chief, not the Chef or the fuckin spoiled beans.

The Chief needs to provide fresh beans for the Chef. We're tired of eating watery bean porridge.
Una greviances no dey dey consistent. Few months back the clamour was for a new Chef and not new beans. The sack of the old Chef and the subsequent appointment of the current Chef was highly celebrated here.

Now make new Chef serve us correct beans, we don dey another thing say the beans no good. Infact the food now come worse pass wetin the former Chef been dey serve. Wahala dey oo.

Need I remind him few "oloyin (honey)" beans got mixed in with the spoiled ones to at least add a bit of nutrients?! LOL!
All the beans don spoil but every match day, there will expectations on the spoilt beans to perform and win and you'll see same people cursing the same beans and wailing. Must be juju shaa

Did they sack ETH after 3 months?

Maybe if ETh hadn’t use the club money to buy dross and populate the squad with useless players, we won’t be here.

Them suppose arrest all of una Ten Hag supporters and jail all of una together with una MCM.
If Ten Hag had only 4 wins in his first 15 league matches and got sacked, it will be deserved but he didn't. ETH also met his own dross in the first season and finished 3rd with a trophy.

However the way Amorim is going in his first season, if we manage escape relegation, na thanksgiving we go do.

Were they playing good football when they finished 3rd and 8th? Were they making good use of space, interchanging positions smoothly and progressing the ball seamlessly?

If they weren’t doing that when things were supposedly “good” what makes you think they’d be doing that now?
Let me ask you, what is your threshold of failure? How can I be complaining that my chef doesn't cook to my taste only for me to get a new chef that her food gives me running stomach every week... undecided

Yes 12th but what is our current position after 3 months? Do we sack managers to get better or become worse?

If the later then people like Sam Alladyce and Tony Pulis would do a better job instead of wasting money on Amorim.

At all.
But the fact remains.

A squad that finished 8th, struggled to score goals, and keeps making silly defensive mistakes can’t perform magic the next season. It doesn’t matter who the coach is.

But because the agenda is always about the coach, this fact flies over most fans’ heads.
What do mean by performing magic? Winning the league or winning the CL or playing good football and finishing top 4?

If your post was before the PK then I'd like to know what decision from the referee made you to claim he favored us.

Bin Laden was supported by the majority of folks here until it was obvious we were not making any progress with him as coach/manager after he had the chance to bring in his players. The same can not be said of Amorim; he has not had the chance to bring in his own players, so I am not going to throw him under the bus yet. I am not sold on the new manager bounce that flatters to deceive so I advise we exercise patience until next season...
Manager bounce or not, we are talking about reality bruh. The people that sacked ETH did so on the basis that our league position and performance was unacceptable and the squad output compared to the quality is negative.

They believed the season was salvageable and therefore appointed a new coach instead of an interim to oversee the season. Now after 3 months we are worse off than when we made the appointment, Manchester United Football Club sitting 15th in the league in February. 4 wins in the league after 15 games is relegation form, infact that we're not in relegation battle now is because of the points ETH won before he got sacked.

Just think of the above and tell me you're comfortable with it and which top club will tolerate such. As bad as Liverpool were in their banter years or Arsenal, did they sink to such lows?
