Very nice summary of the situation.

This is what i was telling Expert. The Glazers only spend just enough to maintain champions league football and make the club viable . And they have never spent their own money, only money made by the club AFTER taking their consultancy fees and paying off the debt they brought on the club.

Every United fan here needs to watch this video.

Maguire 80m. Took 2 months and the whole transfer window to sign.

Chilwell 60m and signed for half the time.


But person go say Woodward is trying. The man can't even price properly.

Did I just read that the card is supposed to be free!?
I was at Abule Egba terminal yesterday and they were selling the cards at N400 each, without credit. You load whatever amount you want after buying the card at the rate of N400
The vendor selling the card was stationed at the back of the buses, out of public view.
Other workers direct you to the vendor, hidden from public view
I witnessed this myself, not dem-say

Two of our former midfielders are playing tonight's UCL final. But while they were here they were considered useless.

Another sweet pass from Herrera wasted by Mpappe...

Bayern Munich won't miss theirs

handelex:
I understand that but our squad is the thinnest among the top six, from last summer we've sold Lukaku, Herrera, Sanchez Young and others called deadwood with more on the market like Smalling, Perreira, Dalot, Rojo, Lingard, Jones and Ighalo is leaving January. Now that's a lot of clear out, in as much as I like our academy boys they are not ready apart from Mason, so how are we going to replace all this people with this nonchalant attitude Ed is showing.

Lana1:
Martial tore the net in an FA Cup semifinal. The same semifinal in which Lukaku missed a penalty.
Hope this helps!

Nezzjnr:
You're mentioning psg

Martial has been tearing the nets of big sides since he joined us

Make I no even talk about Rashford sef

Lana1:
Many of people here no even send Lukaku. We were more angry no replacement was brought in.

But anytime baba go score for Inter and they start dropping ur Lukaku agenda.
So they are the only ones allowed to drop Lukaku agenda. The rest of us aren't? Lol.

Person wey comot for semifinal and person wey lose final, na still L everybody chop!

Nezzjnr:
Anything to call Ole a bad coach

I don’t have any problem with Lukaku at all... But when they won Shaktar... They no allow us rest.... Ole sold a good striker to accommodate Rashford... Ole lacks managerial ability.... They were all over here chanting Ole out

Now Lukaku scored an Own goal in the Final... Table has been turned... They can't take it

He wasn't even around when they were presenting the medal to his teammates

Off your mic

hensben:
Thanks bro. Amen and Amen

melodyogonna:
Didn't I see somewhere that Ole is the first manager to make 5 subs in a game? Could have sworn I read that somewhere.

Mention a single team that has been winning trophies by sacking coach up and down after going three or four years without trophy.
Liverpool started winning trophies in the third or fourth season of Klopp. Chelsea has a stabilized team.

Fellaini - Moyes
Schneiderlin, Schweini, Depay, Martial, Blind - Van Gaal

Lukaku, Pogba, Bailly, Lindelof, Mkhitaryan - Mou

Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, James, Bruno - Ole...

See how different managers bought according to their own philosophy. Now, how many of those players are still at the club or starting games?

If you don't get the philosophy point, check how Lopetegui performed when he tried to play possession football at Madrid...

patrickmuf:
When 8 mention philosophy, I'm on about what pattern of play we want to adopt as a club. Looking at Liverpool, after Klopp, do you see them going after Mourinho or Simeone? I think not, rather, they'd be looking at Nagelsmann or Tuchel...

patrickmuf:
I have been following the argument closely and TBH, it makes for a good read...

I used to be anti-Glazers whilst Fergie was here because they just didn't splash the cash on quality players as one would've expected. Our midfield was left unattended to for years and whilst we lost key players, they didn't do enough to replace them but over the past couple of years, they've invested in the squad hugely maybe because we started missing out on Europe altogether (sounds plausible)...

The reason why we are still struggling even when the Glazers have brought out the cheque book is because we don't have a football philosophy to guide our player purchases and that's why we desperately need a football man to run to football aspect of the club. Van Gaal came and signed his men, Mourinho came and signed the players he likes which are quite different from the kind of players we signed under Van Gaal and now, Ole is buying his own players. If sacked, we might opt for another manager with an entirely different footballing philosophy...

The club needs to have a direction wherein, player acquisition and manager change will depend on whether or he can fit in our system that way, a new manager will come in and doesn't need a complete clear out like what Pep wanted at Chelsea...

GloryIsaac:
Depth just got more important.

afrodoc2:
The only thing worse than appointing the wrong manager is sacking the wrong manager to appoint another wrong or even worse manager.

Sacking and employment of managers should be with sense and a plan, not just wuruwuru to the answer.
