I suspected Bruno was not playing for the manager anymore. This interview of his confirms it for me. Such a mess. Have we ever had it this bad?

I honestly have peace of mind now after checking out. We shall see when a new manager comes in. However, this circus will continue until we have better owners and board. Until then, I no fit kill myself.

BTW, I have always likened this management to Nigerian politicians. Very headless and useless. Relies on mere PR.

We’re so useless that we have even made our opponents to start playing rubbish

I will keep saying it: one of the best decisions I have ever made in life was to stop going to church.

The best decision you could ever make. I now pray to the Supreme Being through my ancestors, which has even been a more wonderful decision.

For that person that claimed Rashford is lacking some confidence, how different is this Rashford and the one with full confidence? Is he not the same very limited and one-move kind of player? He has been found out in the EPL. He most likely doesn’t have any future in the EPL anymore. The only thing helping him is the PR

The only chance we might have to win this match is for Fulham to continue attacking us this way. We can only play counter-attacking game. This coach has to do better

I gave up on this season before it even started. This board spends more on PR than they spend on quality players and coaches.

MRTA7:
I would rate our summer window as a 6/10. Its been a very disappointing window that just got over 6 just because of Baleba. We didn't address the LB. the midfield signings are ok in terms of numbers but in terms of personnel are again just ok. And Carrick will carry the blame for underachieving when ineos didn't do enough in Improving the squad.

Please deduct 2 points because of the PR gimmicks. The board love PR and propaganda than they love the club.

chrisley024:
for whatever reason we can't seem to move with the ball to create chances. Abysmal!

Even last season, we struggled to break down teams.

No counter attack, no goals for us

Oops

Shaw does not have the legs for running anymore. We need to make the pitch wide by playing from the wings. Also, we are gonna miss those goals from Casemiro this season.

Lana1:
Garnacho off to Villa. Give it two years and he will probably be thrown out the door at Villa too.
He should sit down and take a hard look at himself and how he became a player that can't get called to the national team and no club wants to work with long term

Two years is too long. Are you sure Villa will even sign him permanently. It’s a conditional buy obligation, and I don’t trust Villa with regards to loan deals.

I’m starting to suspect that reaching top 4 wasn’t on the agenda for last season. It feels like the unexpected top 4 achievement has made them confused all of a sudden. The whole saga has made me believe that the management were never prepared for this. They are clueless, uncertain, and unprepared for signing players that are better than the ones we currently have.

No one can confidently say what our approach is so far, and I don’t think the management team can explain as well. I understand the decision not to get rinsed over any player, but beyond that, I just don’t understand what they are trying to do. My fear is that they will buy average players during this transfer window which will set us back by some years.

Average players… average coach… average management team. At this stage, we might be aiming for 7th position next season.

I just watched Ederson’s compilation and I must say that I’m not particularly impressed. I think he has the physicality to perform in this league, but his first touch is questionable. This league is very unforgiving and I worry for him. However, I’m hopeful that he will justify the trust the board have in him.

Jamiuokolaa:
Ugarte is soo bad that he cant manage to even convince the manager to get some action in a dead rubber game ?

Omo

Carrick is really doing everything to tell him ‘it’s over’

Brunoooo!!!!

That ends the season for me, regardless of whatever happens between now and the end of the game.

I found myself hating on that coconut-head Mbeumo at a point during that match. I hope he improves next season

DeepSight:
This reversal is from the Villa no doubt.

Absolutely. I suspect Oshiomole might become a Senate President. He’s very close to Tinubu

CONFESSION! CONFESSION!! CONFESSION!!!

I supported Amorim throughout his time here, and I wasn’t happy when he was sacked. However, Carrick has done exceedingly well, within a short time. He has been able to play to the strength of his players. Sometimes, there’s no need for unnecessary complications, something Amorim was definitely guilty off. Big ups to those who picked that up earlier.

Hopefully we will keep the same tempo.

afrodoc2:
I already suspected that it would end badly when we didn’t reinforce that midfield over the summer. I stressed it repeatedly on this forum.

What is concerning it that they didn’t fire him for his bad results but because he attacked them. It is looking like Amorim himself wanted to go and made his own place in the club untenable by publicly attacking his own bosses, knowing that they would have to fire him.

He was already tired, and I think it was already brewing from a while ago. I really don’t think they respected or rated him enough from the beginning, but why didn’t they go for someone they respected and rated, to start with

The amount of mistakes or wrong decisions they have made within a short time is concerning.

@Nitrogen, did your people promise Amorim some signings in January or not🤣🤣🤣

Trevor012:
All these are excuses. Amorim has been backed by the board both financial and with immense trust. Any other club he would have been sacked a long time ago.

Read my post again. He didn’t do well and that’s for sure. However, we have this thing of blaming the sacked coach/manager for every thing. Already, they have started putting out stories on the things he did wrong during his era. Even Fergie made many questionable mistakes during his time.

Personally, I think we must start looking at things holistically. Why are we changing managers every time? Who employed them in the first place? Didn’t they know he has got only one formation from the start? What was the agreement? I don’t wish us bad luck hey, however, I’m almost 100% sure the next manager will suffer same fate.

I don’t support Amorim, but I think these INEOS guys are not better than the Glazers. They are making similar mistakes to Glazers. Amorim was never good enough for us, but the Board must also look inwards. They are certainly proving that they don’t know what they are doing.

Unpopular take from me. I understand Amorim has made many mistakes, including the rants against the board, but I think the board should share the blame. What they have done now is to use him to cover up their own shortcomings. Remember, these were the same people who extended ETH.

Only in Manchester United you will see a board doing the bare minimum and acting as if they have done the most. We all knew from the beginning that this guy would struggle with his formation, especially if not backed fully, in a tough league like this. The fact that Amorim was contesting his job role, saying he was a manager and not a Coach, just confirms many things behind the scenes.

Admittedly, he did not cover himself with much glory, but it is very very very ridiculous, to say the least, to have left him with that midfield from the start. Everyone knows that the midfield is the powerhouse of the team. Then, there’s a rumour that they refused to support him during the winter transfer window, after promising him. They contributed immensely to his downfall. We on

Which sound manager will come in and trust them in the future? For a highly-sought-after set of people, their decision-making have been so abysmal.

Good luck to Amorim!

This Quote from Mourihno cracks me up all the time

He was absolutely right. You can't cure all kinds of sicknesses with the same kind of medicine

I'm DEFINITELY not watching that match tomorrow. I know I've said this many times and went against my words. I've also been someone that trusted and backed Amorim, but the last match switched off that support and hope.

Tactical flexibility is important in this league. Even highly successful managers like Pep are flexible.

Don't say anything, submit the whole application, and your passport will be given back to you. The embassy ( VFS) will call, and you will bring it back to them

God bless you. I appreciate this

vibrant99:
The passport won't be submitted in the first place. They can apply and travel, as long as they will return at the embassy's request.

So, what can that person say at the VFS OFFICE on Monday? I really thought they hold on to your passport until decisions are made. Just to be clear, the person is travelling to another country.

Hi guys, I trust you are good.

So, I have someone going to VFS to submit his application on Monday. However, the person needs to travel soon, and might not be able to submit his passport. What would be your advice?


Thank you so much

Good evening guys, I would like to know about booking for an appointment at VFS for my mom. She would be visiting me for the 4th time, but I'm struggling to get the appointment done online.

Please advise.

Thanks a lot

Northern people know how to protect their own, we don’t as Southerners. Wike has his faults, and I don’t really care about him, however, I assume that the Northerners are asking where Wike got the power to challenge them on a Northern soil. If this makes me tribalism, so be it!

We are living under the laws of the North while our Southern politicians have sold us for their selfish ambitions.

The pressure was too much… I knew the goal was coming, was just hoping it would come close to the 90mins mark

Mrviktor:
The fact that I don't even understand the formation again.

I wonder how the players are feeling also

I also don’t, and I’m scared they would score against us soon the way things are going.
