Same message has been reiterated in here, but the know-it-all people are saying that we should shut up!

Same message from so many reasonable people, but then, some poeple that cherish Europa Cup and Carabao Cup are saying that we are blind.

Mehn, I fear o!

The way some of us in here reason is beyond me, someone is tinkering with the team, and messing with the board and fans of Manchester United, and some people are yarning bullsh1t.

What informed those silly acquisition decisions, rubbish selections, stup1p style, ineffective tactic, wrong substitutions, and to top it all, consistent nagging? And we think that the guy is still the best for us?

Where the fuvk are we all coming from sef?

Macheter ins in 2016: Claudio Bravo (Barcelona), Ilkay Gundogan (Borussia Dortmund), Gabriel Jesus (Palmeiras), Marlos Moreno (Atletico Nacional), Nolito (Celta Vigo), Leroy Sane (Schalke), John Stones (Everton), Oleksandr Zinchenko (FC Ufa)

United got four players.

Machester ins in 2017

July 24: Benjamin Mendy from AS Monaco.

July 23 update: Danilo £27m, five-year deal.

July 15 update: Kyle Walker £45m. five-year contract.

Douglas Luiz, from Brazilian club Vasco da Gama, £10m fee, loaned out to City’s sister club Girona.

Bernardo Silva, aged 22, reported £43.6m, five-year deal.

June 8 update: Ederson Moraes joining them in a £34.7m deal from Benfica. This is a British record transfer fee for a goalkeeper, with City eclipsing the £18.9m Manchester United paid Atletico Madrid in June 2011, to bring David de Gea to Old Trafford.

And united got 3.


14 players over 2 years is a starting eleven complete compared to 7 over two years. United needed quality and quality isn't cheap hence our huge outlay on players. If the club has realised this then they should be willing and ready to invest even more before we are left further behind. I don't give a fvck if we are a billion dollar team. We should go out there and scare opponents with good football played by world class players. City has shown they will spend if the manager identifies weakness in the team or mistakes in his transfers. They want to get more defenders, go for players like Sanchez. We should be responding in kind with quality players not some of the average malcom and soler we are linked to.
Baba, you are saying that Pep got 2x the number of players Mourinho got, right? Perfect!

Okay, let me agree with you that City has more quality players than we have. Good!

But then, nobody told Mourinho to buy players at exorbitant prices. Pep was busy snapping up players at 30m, 40m and 50m, but Mourinho bought two players at 100m each. Pep was snapping up Gabriel Jesus, Gundogan and co, Mourinho went for Lukaku.

Then Mourinho is confused, as Pep was smart enough to go for quantity in order to enhance the quality of the team, while Mourinho was buying quality players at crazy fees. Seems Pep is smarter.

I just agreed with you that man city has quality players in order to explain my point.

The fact is this, with a smart manager, the players at Man Utd can win the league.

In their defence, Mou is making it sound like enough money wasn't spent by the club, (real money 300+m).

What exactly does he want to buy, Bale, Griezmann, Dybala, Hazard.
He wants to buy Bale that has lost it completely, buy Perisic that is above 27 years........The two wouldn't cost him less than 120m pounds.

After buying, the said players go ahead and underperform, then Bros would come back and say he has tired legs, he needs to buy fresh legs.

The guy is simply clueless!

I am not making excuses for him.. He's bought a lot and should deliver and in all honesty 2 trophies first year, 2nd in December this year, through to next round in UCL is delivering but we could do more. I am saying we have overspent on dross from moyes down. Miki in Mourinho's current squad is showing to be one. Lukaku is heading that way. Bailly now is becoming a crock. Maybe just maybe this were not the number 1 names on Mourinho's list. That Lukaku transfer somehow tells me so. It was too sudden. We might have gotten the number 1 names for the same or a little above the price of these if our transfer panel was up to scratch.
This is getting interesting o.

So, you think that the players he bought might not have been his number 1 targets.

Chief, trust me, those players bought by Mourinho are his type of players, jambody, strong, players. Funny thing is, they are very good players, man management and tactics are killing the team.

Am saying you should stop saying that he didn't get his targets, he may need more money, after all Pep is looking to spend more in January, but to say that he's spent less or he couldn't get his targets. Forget it, abeg.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 11:15am On Dec 28, 2017
Funny thing is both managers have spent almost the same amount on players. Can we now say that the other was smart with his acquisitions or what?

This is crazy mehn!

Nobody is blaming City and Pep because they are achieving.. its because people make it look like Pep just came and city became an instant hit. Dude had to buy and it's paying off so why is Mourinho asking to buy to get to his target now a crime?
Am struggling to get your point o, so Mourinho did not have the chance to buy his type of players right? Something is definitely wrong in here, I don't get it! Someone spent over 300m buying and the excuse now is he didn't have chance to get his targets.

Wow!

Sterling under Pep - Epl's Messi

De Bruyne, Sallah even Lukaku at Chelsea were not good enough under Mourinho, same boiz are bossing the League today.

No wonder, Chelsea fans are cussing him despite the fact that he won lots of trophies for them.

Name the defensive problems. Second highest cleansheet in the league. Except for the draws we have had in 4 games and if we had been lucky like city has been scoring a winner in the 90th minute of like 5 matches we would be second and be off by like 5 points. Getting Van dijk just made us more boistrious in attack as the midfielders can foray more because they know they have at least someone solid at the back.
Keep deceiving yourself, better thank your midfielders and forwards, so you think those slow and shaky boiz manning your defence are defenders, you need to buy two solid defenders and a DMF before you can say you wanna take a shot at the title.

List 5 Strikers that are better than Lukaku and that would cost less in any League?!
Hehe, stop telling me to list players. Lukaku that cannot outperform some strikers that are above 30 years, funny thing is he costed us close to 100m ( if you consider the fact that Rooney was part of the deal).

Don't get me wrong o, I like Lukaku o, just trying to tell you that Mourinho is a genius!

Lukaku is okay, after all, some other manager would rather have him stay in the opposition's box to get the best out of him than make him useless by having him do the work of a left back.

What do you mean it's a ridiculous fee? If he sorts their defensive problem, it will be a huge bargain
IF......

A Southampton defender that will be 27 six months from now, at 75m? Wow! Someone that has less than five years left of his footie career?

Meanwhile, signing only the guy won't solve their defensive problems, shey you know?

Yes, that was one of Mourinho's master class, shebi the guy helped Man City some weeks ago by dashing them two goals, same guy has refused to score against big oppositions.

It was all Mourinho's masterclass, the board had no choice than to dance in the rain with him, after all, he is the saviour.

Why do you have Problem with it pls? Liverpool Board ain't bunch of Fools in my Opinion, and I believe they know better than us.

I believe he's been thoroughly watched and scouted before the Decision is made! Besides, is 27 an old age for a Player?!
So you think the board of a typical football club cannot be confused, and make mistakes?

Liverpool Midfield is getting more stronger. Lallana, Wijnaldum, Can, Henderson, Milner, Coutinho, Chamberlain, Kaita.... we really need to spend o!
I am struggling to see why we need to spend more. Chamberlain, Milner, Can, Henderson, Wijnaldum etc, are they not average players? Maybe, we should even buy them from Liverpool in order to improve our squad.....what do you think?

Liverpool is silently building a formidable Team for next Season. Van Dijk will join in January, you and I know he's a top Defender and definitely gonna be an upgrade on all the present Liverpool Defenders.

Kaita will join his Team Mates in the summer, and no doubt he's a talented Lad. A very good Midfielder. If more Additions are made, and Coutinho eventually opts to stay, I fear for United next Season with the current Bricklayers we are parading as Players.
Nope, we have a Manager that has turned his players to bricks in order to form a defensive system that is weak and full of flaws.

Una dey vex o....... still on no-talk Mode!
Bros, I officially joined the Mourinho Out bandwagon after the Man City game.

See eh, he doesn't have the sense to identify where issues are and address them accordingly.

We have issues with set-piecez, and we parade tall players in every department. See the two goals city scored against us, check out Leicester's and burnley's second goals. Upfront, the short ones don't know how to accurately and effectively cross the ball, and the tall ones don't know how to head the ball. And we have a fuvking manager!

How can you be ultra defensive against teams like Southampton, Leicester, etc and the team is worth over 300m pounds?? It doesn't make sense. We have the players, but we don't have a talented and reasonable manager, simples!

We have a manager that can only defend, depend on luck to score, lose, whine, come up with excuses every fuvking time, rinse and repeat!

Transfer Rumor

Manchester United are keen to sign Juventus' attacking midfielder Paulo Dybala in a £60m deal, the Daily Star reports.

The paper says Jose Mourinho is "desperate" to sign a new number 10 with Juan Mata and Henrikh Mkhitaryan having failed to make their mark at Old Trafford.
Him buying players like Messi, Ronaldo, Griezzy, Mbappe, Neymar and others will not change his stup1p, boring, old, outdated, washed up, id1otic style. He has lost it, he has gone out of ideas/strategies.

Motherfuvking Oloshios Manager!

He should fvck off and leave Man Utd alone, abeg!

All I keep reading is SELL,BUY blah blah blah what happened to player development.?

Who would have foreseen Sterling of all pple hitting double digits within first half of the season, I put it to you Sterling wouldn’t play like he’s doing currently under MOU perhaps we would be hearin how average he is and why he should be SOLD too.

Why don’t players improve under Mou? other than buying ready made and setting them up to defend.CR7 had one of his worst performances under MOU, if he had continued under MOU he wouldn’t have smelt the World best award this much.

Give Mou PSG and watch him convert Neymar and Mbappe to LB and RB respectively while hoofing the ball to lonely Cavani upfront.

That’s the sad reality.

Smalling had picked up a knock but stayed on the pitch because Mou had already used all three substitutions.

Phil Jones took it upon himself to reorganise the team, telling Lindelof to move to CB from RB...

According to Phil Neville on commentary, Jones asked Herrera to fill in at right-back but was snubbed by the Spaniard.

Gary Neville:-- "Ander Herrera refused to go to right-back and told Henrik Mkhitaryan to go back there. You can't believe the disorganisation and lack of leadership shown by Manchester United at the end of that game in a game they should have won."

The players Guardiola inherited

Hart, Zabaleta, Clichy, Otamendi, Mangala Kompany, Fernando, Fernandinho Navas Sterling, Bony, Iheanacho, Negredo, Kolarov, Delph Nasri Demichelis, Yaya Silva KDB Aguero

So we should refer to this list when we post like say Guardiola inherited Ronaldo Messi Dinho and Zidane
Well, not like his current players are superior to Man utd's, he has only been able to make them look better. With his free flow attacking footie. Not some fella that is the antichrist of football.

I would prefer he passed, but what if his pass was intercepted. Those days, Carrick, Scholes, Rooney would have passed the ball around until that two minutes is exhausted.

How come Guardiola is beating everyone with those boys?
