Eric Bailly has put Harry Kane in his pocket.

We let this elite defender go on loan while we kept a liability fridge that cost us £80m in the squad.

This is a disgrace.

This Chelsea owner might just be a Glazer kind of owner that likes puppet coaches. So he wasn't sacked for being a bad coach but for this?
The results don’t warrant a sack. Tuchel has done extremely well considering the circumstances. The changing of owners, changing of the entire leadership structure are factors that can cause bad results.

Who sacks a manager 6 days after giving him more than £300m to recruit quality players? I don’t think Boehly could be as stingy as the Glazers. He just wants to prove he can be as ruthless as Abramovic.

The gist I am hearing about this Tuchel sack is worrying

Tod Boehly asked Tuchel to sign Ronaldo in the summer. Tuchel resisted and said he had better forwards in his squad and Ronaldo would ruin the spirit of his dressing room. This led to their owner’s bad relationship with Tuchel.

And when Havertz and Mount refused to score, the owner felt he had been vindicated and he swung the hammer at Tuchel for defying his orders in the summer. I hope this story is not true.

My GOAT shouldn’t be the reason a fine manager like Tuchel got sacked in another football club.

Yet, you were making a case for Ole while he was at Man Utd. Ole had shit results after shït results with zero trophies to show for it.

If Ole had Tuchel’s level of performance, you would be on this section begging us to donate and build a cathedral for the fraud in Manchester.

This is Tuchel’s record by the way…….and it’s not close to being a sackable offence.

Ontop the goal drought, he still managed to come third highest scorer in the so-called toughest league in the world

Hypocrites tongue
He outscored the so called younger forwards against the top 5 teams in the PL. The topic before he signed was that he was too old to cope with the rigors of the PL at 36.

Ferguson met Pep twice and got molested both times. That was when Ferguson admitted that he for the worst beating of his career ever in the hand of a rookie Pep.

Pep was the reason Ferguson went into retirement.
Pep had arguably the best midfielders in the world plus Messi. Those trio in the midfield went on to win the World Cup, Euro 2012 and one more CL trophies(all without Pep).

Pep on the other hand hasn’t won anything in the continent for 11 years while managing the highest spending clubs in the world in that period. Pep(since then) has lost to Ultra European giants like Spurs, Lille and Monaco.

It’s starting to look like Barcelona players made Pep and not the other way round. Pep has spent £1 billion at Man City and yet he has only made the CL final once. How good is Pep outside Barcelona? To think Klopp, Tuchel and your PE teacher(Hansi Flick) have all won it since then and Pep cannot simply tells even a puppy that Pep is a nobody in Europe.

That’s your answer……Madrid were the biggest spenders in Europe and Liverpool were the biggest spenders in the PL.

Yet, Alex Ferguson won the CL in Europe unbeaten while winning the Premier League too. It’s not the nonsense half measure jobs Klopp and Pep are doing now that none of them can cope with winning the two biggest trophies(UCL + PL) in the same season.

SAF met Pep twice in the UCL final in 08/09 and 10/11.

Man Utd weren’t the biggest spenders in Europe that season, Man City were in those two seasons and Fergie still beat them to the PL title.

Your elephant lies have been exposed. At no point in SAF’s reign in the PL era was he the biggest spender in Europe. This is why many see him as the greatest football manager in Europe.

Why can’t Pep win CL without Messi?

SAF never spent £1 billion combined in his 40 years of football management.

Why can’t Pep win CL without Messi?

Debruyne who scored 15 league goals last season is there
Mahrez who scored 11 league goals last season is there

Foden who scored 9 league goals last season is there

Gundogan who scored 8 league goals last season is there

Bernardo who scored 8 league goals last season is there

Rodri who scored 7 league goals last season is there

Laporte who scored 4 league goals last season is there

Grealish who should be hoping to improve is also there

Abi if Haaland gets injured shey Man city will start playing 10 vs 11?
It’s another CL season where Pep has the best odds of winning the CL competition. It’s been like this for the past 5-6 seasons.

When he doesn’t win next year, I am sure you would cook up another excuse why he couldn’t win it. It’s either Mahrez can’t finish or Stones isn’t good enough.

Make we sha no bash players like that.

We have had only one month of martinez..

In as much as he has been brilliant.. He will still get bad games.. Like the Brentford match.. They tore him into bits.. He was hooked off at halftime...

Shaw and Maguire balled for England on their euro run.
Nd during qualifiers..
Same as sterling..

Once d team is performing perfectly everybody will shine.

It's wrong to blame Fred.. Nd mactominay nd shaw.. Or degea 2 years back.. Or lindelof under jose.. Or even Aaron...

When it's good it's good.
I don’t care about what happens in England? Shaw has been at United for 9 years. Baring 3 months of good form when Telles was signed, Shaw has been ultra useless at United. If he wasn’t British, would he have gotten that many opportunities to rediscover himself?

In England, Southgate plays 3 CBs at the back. Ten Hag is never going to play like that so what purpose do perennial failures like Maguire or Shaw serve Man Utd. United can’t keep rewarding failure year after year and demand/expect progress. The moment Shaw and Maguire got benched as advised here, the defence improved by 10,000%.

The passport is irrelevant.it didn't help Henderson or Lingard get in the team.
British passport is the only reason Henderson is relevant and the reason he’s in a conversation at all.

United had Romero that was Argentina’s #1 at some point and was treated like shït by Ole till he sauntered off from Man UTD.

Lingard wouldn’t have stayed that long at United if he wasn’t also British. We saw what happened to Fellaini who was miles better and how he was booted off by Ole.

I can give you many other examples.

I can't waste my time writing an epistle to convince someone who thinks Maguire is a good CB

we would have won Liverpool if Maguire had played grin cheesy

Every week with different jokes, last week was Ter stegen and Neuer VS Ederson.
Ole never beat Arsenal and Liverpool in a league game throughout his time at the club.

That should tell you all you need to know.


Cyberrex:
I think he's not that bad, pple would argue that he's not at the level of player that should be starting for Manchester United, maybe?

but we all know most of our players were badly coached under olè, that is another angle

look at Mctominay, I was literally begging God to touch ten hag's mind not to use the boy, but somehow he's found a way round the dude(at least for now), he analysed him, brought out his pros and cons and he's prolly making a proper baller out of him, Mctominay he's the only one in our midfield that is press resistant, he'll get out of a 2/3 man press 7/10 situation, he's also an excellent ball winning, he just lose focus on the pitch,hes not an excellent passer, but he can get the ball out of a tight space while he delivers the ball bruno/eriksen or our FBs and I think ten hag has prolly assigned someone to always remind him of his zone, when he moves forward Eriksen drops to cover and add extra man to defence while also orchestrating play from deep

I know he'll start on Thursday and he'll like to make an impression, I just hope he doesn't doom himself, because that's "bye bye 1st 11"
Maguire is a very terrible player. A horrible player and a useless captain.

Maguire has never won player of the month at the club. Martinez did that under one month of joining the club.

Bailly also won player of the month at the club under one month of joining the club.

This was why the fans were outraged that it was Bailly leaving instead of Maguire. Bailly was outstanding in the preseason but he doesn’t have a British passport so he had to leave for useless players to thrive at the club.

on maguire issue, let's be critical, is it the inability of him to read the game? or the fact that he's overdoing things? or he's just a person that should be led and not leading?

whenever I look at his structure, his built, he's supposed to be one of the most feard defender in PL, but opponent attackers always like to press him, because he's error prone

but I think he will be essential for Erik's style
No pace, no agility, no athleticism.

These lack of defensive attributes makes him a liability. PL is very tough and with very smart attackers. Even an all rounder looking Saliba got ruined by Rashford twice.

If Maguire didn’t have a British passport, he would be playing in League 1.

Thank God his no longer here
And whenever I curse Ole here, his fans are quick to defend him to let it go.

The damage he’s caused still has a ripple effect. Ten Hag, the no nonsense manager has gotten rid of all the British defenders at the back and we suddenly look like a team that can play football.

If Ole was still here, back line would be

I no sabi that one, you'd have to ask Ralf as I don't think Maguire was any better than any defender last season.
Maguire is the worst defender at Man Utd. When it was confirmed that Bailly was going to Marseille on loan, there was outrage on social media with people asking why him and not Maguire?

Luke Shaw has had only 3 months of a decent season in 9 years and he’s still at the club. He’s given chances after chances after chances to redeem himself but Bailly is the one sidelined because he neither has a British passport or friends in the media to hold a brief for him.

Who's talking about Jones? More impulsive than even Bailly.
Lindelof is a calm-headed defender, not very tough though and he's been obviously sidelined, same with Maguire. You fight for your place. I'd take Maguire over Bailly any day. I'd take Varane or Martinez over both.
He was speaking about last season. Obviously he’s no longer here. There was no Martinez last season and Varane was always injured too.

What logical explanation does anyone have to start Maguire or Lindelof ahead of Bailly?

He plays at a world class level one week, then consistently make school boy errors the next, then get injured the following week.
If Bailly is reckless and impulsive, what does that say about Maguire, Jones and the Swedish Lesbian?

Guy couldn't stay fit to save his life but looking for who to blame. Fit go back to injury on his first training with this new team.
You people have been brainwashed.

He was only injured for 13 days last season. 13 days and I remember the decade useless Jones starting ahead of Bailly at Anfield in a 3 man defence, only to lose 4-0.

Even if a player is injury prone, play him till he gets injured again cos his value is on the pitch, not on the bench. Bailly is better than Jones, Lindelof and Maguire so why didn’t he get any chance to play last season?

He's obviously talking about the times a half fit Maguire was played over him.

I dont think he has a future at the club though and I think he knows that.
He was only injured for 13 days throughout last season and he made only 4 PL starts throughout the season.

If this isn’t xenophobia, I don’t know what else to call it. He was the best CB at the club but when you don’t have anyone at the high table defending your name, nobody would care.

The ever useless Maguire hasn’t played in 3 games and every British pundit is asking why and some are even saying Maguire has been maltreated. That’s the power of the British passport.
