All but confirms he is leaving...I remember when he burst into the scene, I thought to myself that he is just another overrated English lad, turns out I was wrong...Top player...

United should have signed him back then in 2014 or early 2015.

SAF would have certainly signed him. The fools sitting in United’s board these days don’t have any ambition. They will rather save money for the Glazers.

I cannot think of any top English striker that Ferguson didn’t want. He bought Andy Cole(British record fee), chased Shearer to the end of the world before that one stupidly signed for Newcastle and wasted his career.

Ferguson signed Rooney as soon as he could lay his hands on him. He signed Owen in the twilight of his career - but that was because Liverpool wouldn’t have sold Owen to United. The beef between the two clubs was huge in the late 90s.

Joezinho:
Levy is to be blamed for the mess that Tottenham Spurs is in by firing Mourinho. You wont find another quality coach like JM for Spurs.

Tottenham's problem surely isn't Mourinho..
They are just a bunch of players without winning mentality... Stupid club..

Kane has scored one goal, zero assist since Mourinho left. They have played 6 games since then.

They have a cultural reboot and Mason is starting players with the club’s DNA. Everyone is happy, Dele is smiling and Harry Winks is delighted.

That’s all that matters.

Kane shedding tears after the game.

What a legend for Spurs.

Tottenham had one shot on target in the 8th minute and nothing else throughout that half.

I am wondering whether Ryan Mason told them to sit back and defend with their lives.

If this was Mourinho, that would be the narrative.

hoopLA:
I pray to Jah this is DAILY Fail's usual BS reporting.

But as long as it is the Norwegian Fanny Amun, I can't be too sure that it isn't real.

I am not even happy that everyone wants Ole to sign new strikers.

Won’t the new striker disturb the development of the players with United-DNA like Greenwood or Rashford?

Why can’t Ole coach what he’s got into perfection like Mourinho was asked to?

When it was Mourinho, the squad was good enough to finish as champions.

Now that it’s Ole, everyone wants him to buy top players to enable him become a champion.

I despise these double standards.

Expert17:
Using your logic, Golden boot isn't only a striker's achievement. The attacking midfielders, RW and LW all contribute to the achievements.

A striker still has to put the ball in the net. A goalie might not make a single save in a game to keep a clean sheet.

Two different issues.

Expert17:
Pick one:

Option A:
A goal keeper with the best save
A striker that scored the best goal

Option B:
Goal keeper with the highest clean sheet
Striker with the highest goals.

Goalkeepers and strikers aren’t the same thing.

There are many games where a team doesn’t even concede a single shot on target because of how brilliant the defence is.

Yet, the keeper reaps where he didn’t sow by getting undeserved credits of a clean sheet.

A striker has to score a goal to even think of golden boot.

Golden boot is an individual award.
Keeping a clean sheet isn’t.

Expert17:
Joe Hart has 4 EPL Golden Gloves awards, Edwin Van der sar with 1.

Who would you pick as a Coach?

Golden glove isn’t only a goalkeeper’s achievement. The defenders in front of him also make sure he doesn’t concede stupid goals. They all contribute to the achievements.

You are trying to be clever by half.

I said save of the season. - Maguire or Bailly will not help any goalkeeper to win the save of the season award. It’s an individual achievement.

So try again.

Expert17:
Yh, the way he saved this pass

De Gea has 5 MOTD’s save of the season awards in his kitty.

Henderson has what?

No way De Gea isn’t saving this Firmino header.

Expert17:
I am not the only one that feel De Gea has past his best. Spain coach, OLE and co said so too.

De Gea is Spain’s #1

Expert17:
@image below

Wow, Pogba was doing a great job.

Pogba isn’t a defender, Bissaka(a fullback for that matter) is.

Expert17:
Almost might be in10 years time.

He goes back to Sheffield United next summer.

Expert17:
According to your analysis Henderson should have saved a free header.


So why are you blaming AWB for a free header De Gea should be saving?

So every free header is a savable shot?

I am not the only one that felt Henderson should have caught Firminho’s shot. Scholes said so too.

He was right there and it was a from a set piece unlike the De Gea one that was open play. Bissaka did an awful job and Bryan placed that header down unlike the Firminho goal that was placed within an arm’s reach of Henderson.

The Henderson fairytale is almost over.

MRTA7:
Ndidi Iheanacho combo.

Ndidi is a beast.

He won that ball like Makelele and laid the pass like Xavi.

eph12:
Bissaka was drawn out by the guy he's supposed to be marking and other players in front of him. Who was supposed to watch the run of opposition full backs or wing backs? AWB na superhuman? He is still required to run forward every time to join the attack

Bissaka wasn’t drawn to anyone.

The outside was always the danger, not the inside. Lindelof and De Gea had the inside covered if the ball drops there.

Bissaka didn’t even know Bryan was on the outside . He never saw him until the last moment. He’s very poor. He has conceded about a dozen goals like that previously so it’s a habitual weakness.

Expert17:
That weak pass to Degea?

Weak because De Gea held position.

Henderson would have jumped and missed the ball while rushing out.

Mrviktor:
Degea that saved our asses like 4 times.

Una ehhh

That save when Lindelof was bullied by a bottom tier forward?

Henderson would have rushed out and conceded.

MRTA7:
This is the team they want to only add Kane to and expect something.

We need:-

RB
CB
CDM
RW

before we should even consider a striker.

Wan Bissaka is a ticking time bomb.

LMDyaya:
And this is almost the starting line up in poland, smh


I just hope we win europa, and then ole can geddifok

If he wins Europa, he gets a new contract.

Botfuss:
I really want to blame bissaka so badly but, we’ve conceded with that defensive organization so many times I’ve lost count . What exactly do these coaches watch in training? No hope for final.

Emery is licking his lips, targeting that zone Bissaka is supposed to be covering.

United conceded a goal to Sevilla last season because of this blind spot.

Against Brighton earlier in the season, that area was targeted like 10 times but Brighton were too useless to have scored at least 5 goals from their chances.

Expert17:
Kimpembe ahead of Laporte? Impossible.

Laporte last played for France in 2017.

It was Kipembe that featured at UEFA nations league and all their friendlies apart from when he was injured.

Kipembe is miles ahead of Laporte.

patrickmuf:
Lenglet? No wonder Laporte opted to represent Spain...

If not for his injury, Martial would've made the cut...

Varane and Kipembe are ahead of Laporte. He had to run to Spain because he has a better chance starting for the La Roja.

In 2021,

Ole drew West Brom, Fulham and lost to Sheffield United.

All these teams have relegated.

Ole is useless.

There’s nothing else to be said.

Leyqute:
This is a really really poor performance from Man Utd. Preparation for the UEL final shouldn’t be this bad.

Ole rarely beats relegated teams.

The most useless manager on the planet.

Fulham have relegated, they have absolutely nothing to play for but the DNA manager is struggling to beat Fulham.

Oasis007:


Martial won't play Euro...... LMFAO!

Mourinho was blamed in 2018 when Martial missed the World Cup.

Damn, this French squad is loaded.

patrickmuf:
You heard that too...

I heard it loud and clear.

patrickmuf:
Rashford has been playing rubbish, trying to dribble when he should pass...We need to be more clinical else Villarreal will carry the day come the UEL final.

This is what happens when we don’t have McFred, we get overrun in the midfield.

Th bombing forward will look beautiful but the moment the ball is lost, there’s no cover at the back.

More league goals conceded at Old Trafford this season than any time in the last 58 years.

£150m spent on the same defence.

Ole has blood on his hands.

This Wan Bissaka is useless.

He never saw Bryan in the buildup to that goal. He’s never fully aware of his surroundings.

I cannot count the number of goals United have conceded with him looking like a deer in the headlights.

Mrviktor:
Something fishy going down.

Dey better give it to Bruno to avoid scandal

They have….

airmark:
I hope you know Cavani's age now and you may substract Kane's.

Cavani isn’t Kane otherwise Michael Owen is Giggs.

raumdeuter:
2yrs ago, I will say Haaland was not ready for a team like Man utd, Dortmund was his level where he can play consistently and develop, You guys have not been in a position to gamble on anything cos you need to win immediately.

Haaland can’t be a gamble, he’s already established. It wasn’t 2 years ago that United wanted him desperately, it was just January last year.

raumdeuter:
His injury proneness does not stop him from hitting 20goals a season even at Spurs where he is now playing assister and scorer.

About half of those 20 goals are from penalties. Bruno is already at Man Utd and he’s more prolific at burying penalties than Kane.

raumdeuter:
Madrid and Barcelona wont be in debt forever, In 3-4yrs time a player like Haaland would be bored and be looking for opportunities
The only reason Pogba is still with you is because his playing level dropped in the past 3yrs

Good point about Madrid/Barca not staying in debt forever but the fact still remains if I were to choose between Haaland or Kane at £150m, Kane is a smarter choice.

If Haaland isn’t available at any amount then Kane can be a smart option. Haaland is probably the best young player in the world. It would be shocking if United miss another opportunity to sign Haaland.

raumdeuter:
Dem broke dem broke Madrid was still dropping 160M for Hazard, Still planning to scoop Mbappe, Barcelona was still sending over 100m on players like Dest Trincao and 30yr old Pjanic. Season before they signed Griezmann Dejong etc How will they now struggle to sign Haaland

Perhaps those signings made them broke.

raumdeuter:
The only reason Haaland wont make trouble about leaving is if his level drops

Haaland has a smart father plus Raiola, A boy who knew at age 20 to only go to a club that will give him a release clause and turned down other bigger clubs. That type of boy is not staying at any club long term unless he stops performing at the top level

Haaland’s level will drop at United. I don’t think there’s enough support system to feed Haaland unless another manager comes to build a team around him.

United are short of technical players to fully maximize Haaland’s potentials. United need a an elite CB, an elite CDM, an elite RW.

Joezinho:


These are the kind of intelligent players I want in man utd not the DNA bullshiit!

DNA plus Insha Allah tactics won’t always work for ole gollum.. Let's hope he doesn't bottle it against Mr good ebening, the UEL specialist..

Almost 3 years later, Ole can’t coach his defenders to build from the back. The defence struggles to build from the back when opponents press them.

It’s an eye sore.

raumdeuter:
Haaland is likely not leaving this season. If you make your choice Haaland or Nothing don't be surprised if you end with Nothing

If you offer Dortmund £150m, they would bring him to Manchester themselves with 6 baby elephants as a bonus.

£150m post-pandemic? Watzke would put his wife as a bonus on the deal.
