Just hilarious how Man Utd will sign top performing players, make them useless a few months later, then fans start complaining that they are not good. Someone even said that Woodward is stingy, , when he was doling out 200m each to Mou and LVG to sign players, where were you jare?

The fact is this, current players can make top 4. To harness their potentials, we need a new manager. Let's adopt Real Madrid and Chelsea's style, it guarantees trophies. We will continue to sink with this approach of giving someone time and money to get it right. It's BS. This is not Fergie era!

Get another manager, give him less than 100m to add players to the current squad, let's see what he can do in 1/2 years, if there are no improvements, sack the fuvker and look for another coach.

Fans want trophies!

How many times have we made top four with this squad? And what proof do you have that Woodward dolled out 200m to Van gaal and Mourinho every transfer window? These two are seasoned managers that had won the league and champions league in their previous club/s, but they barely made top four here! Both managers are saying same thing "Woodward knows nothing about football!" Even Sir Alex gave him the hair dryer treatment during the Sheffield game! Woodward is ridiculously clueless about football in all it's entirety. Ole is a winner and has got it in him, all he need is a strong backup in the transfer windows and acquiring his first choice targets and in three years time, we will evaluate how far we have come in the EPL. Sacking Ole now is pure foolishness!

And the club keeps going in circles.......

Until we must have Appointed every Dick and Harry every two years with 100m transfer budget ,

Put Maguire in that Sheffield team against us and we'll be clapping what a defender

Maguire is a very good defender, with a top of the class midfield additions and a prolific striker, we will challenge for EPL and UCL titles..

patrickmuf:
This combined 11 go expose so many things.

It will only expose United lack of team depth. Meanwhile my combined team is this:
De Gea

WBS Soyunco Maguire Chiwell

Ndidi

Maddison Pogba

James Vardy Rashford

My bench will consist of Perez, Martial, Evans, Mctom, Greenwood, Fred.

patrickmuf:
I really don't know why he opted for a more reserved approach. He had a formula that was working, why on earth did he change?

I guess he overrated the match fitness of his players then and their initial gra-gra. These boys can't sustain his style of play for a long period of time. How do you expect a lazy Martial to press upfront for 90 mins week in week out?

GloryIsaac:
Buy Fernandes, buy Fernandes, they refused.. See where we are now

Woodward is the biggest problem at United, he hoardes funds like it's his father's money. Van gaal and Mourinho both complained about his ineptitude toward major targets in the transfer market. You know nothing about football players, yet you decided a major transfer target can't come to United because "he takes a lot of risks"!! Who does that?? This is why Pep can never come to United and why Pochettino will never succeed if he gets appointed per say. Until he changes this attitude and/or appoints a football director, Ole and we the fans are in a deep shit!

pharod:
Yesterday's game showed us one thing clearly. Despite the fact that we have some below average players, this team is capable of so much more. Good enough to be in the top 4 battle. But they are just poorly coached.
I don't know what they do on the training grounds apart from 100 metre dash. No cohesion, couldn't string 2 passes together without giving the ball away. Even the way they were set up from the beginning left a lot to be desired... Against Sheffield United.
We don't have a coach, period. And if we continue like this, we will continue sliding down the table until we start seeing ourselves doing mathematics with Norwich and the likes...

Let's cut Ole some slack, please. He's yet to field his strongest team and he needs a few transfer windows before we can start calling for his head. Too early for a sack! Klopp has won only 1 trophy since he was appointed by Liverpool 4 years ago.

patrickmuf:
If Ole wasn't a club legend, he wouldn't have gotten the support he is getting from guys like Paafin.

He he come out to explain why he started with 5 defenders? Fergie with the squad yesterday would've walloped Sheffield United.

Naso, even the two best teams in England did not wallop them. It took Liverpool a goalkeeping error to get one over them. Football has change, brother.

codedguy1:
You are now comparing Ole with Klopp and SAF. Guy leave that matter abeg.

Ole has shown that he is tactically inept to handle this team, the drab approach and attitude by most of the players is compounding issues.

As per your last statement, I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY.

Ole tried his best, some players stupidity destroyed his plan..

nitrogen:


A coach has no input on what goes on in the field of play? I guess we don't need a manager, just tell 11 players to get on the pitch and play. BS!

Even star-studded sides have managers, top ones at that. Abeg,

You failed to understand what I'm trying to say. A couch could have a tactical plan to contain an opponent and perhaps win a game, a player's stupidity could ruin that plan. What led to Sheffield united's first goal? Jones stupidity! He lost concentration and kept a Sheffield player onside, take a look

codedguy1:
Some still blame Ole.

Some blame the players as per their lackadaisical attitude and approach.

Some actually think both Ole and most of the players dey craze

When you have a tactically inept coach managing a buncha lazy players, then Manchester united is what you get.

Forget this comeback performance, they will nearly give some of us heart attack in the next game regardless of who they are playing.

This come back to draw can't deceive me ooo, I yam in 3rd category.

When klopp lost a three goal lead to lose 3-4 to Sevilla in the Europa final, was he tactical inept? Or when Sir Alex came down from a 3 goal lead to draw west brom in his last premier league game as a coach, was he tactical inept? How it is a coach's fault that some of his players loses concentration on the field of play beats me completely. A coach has little or no input on what goes on in the field of play, please..

This is no Ole's fault, please.. The earlier we get rid of some lazy players at Utd, the better for us.

Intermilanfan:
I Hear Fosu-mensah Is Back. He Might Do Better There. I Don't Know Why But I Feel The Dm Is His Best Position.

Fosu Mensah just got back from a long lay-off, so I think it will take sometime before he's fully match fit. Until then, OGS must have discovered his best position.

ChristineC:
So no other team can match Liverpool in this league?

We did!

So, who do we pair with Fred in the midfield vs Sheffield united? I guess Tuanzebe could do a job there..

Leyqute:
I remember saying the other day that McTom will be back in no time.

I seriously want this lad to improve and become better.

This is his first season playing week in week out.

And the lad is improving both in positional awareness and ball retention, same as Fred. If both players continue in this trend till the end of the season, we may the see the last of Pogba in central midfield. You think so?

Mctom back in training?? He was seen arriving Carrington today.

SIRcumalot:
Woodward know say na few fans go shout say make Ole Comot despite the performance.
Woodward na sabi

Thinks are looking up.
Pogba leg don heal,he need play him utmost best so Madrid fit pay us better money.

Pogba is the best man to man our 10 position at the moment..

OGS definitely needs time and a total backup at the transfer market for this threadbare team to make good. His three signings are testaments to that. Ole has won a trophy before now at molde, I think he can do that here as well.

ChristineC:
I have not seen Haaland play but he seem to be some talent according to the hype.

At 19, dude's a bully but more direct, pacy and an eye for a goal. He's got a better first touch too

I've failed to understand politics in Nigeria to date..

dopeJemi:
Hello guys, Good morning everyone... Dopejemi said to say hi to everyone, he was shot about a month ago in South Africa but he's recuperating just fine now. Said he'll be coming back soon

Wishing him speedy recovery, man..

Another day for another Ajaga football

Spurs

Itsmedozie:
no single shot in target
with an attacking troi of hazard,Benzema and Bale

Even with all their fast-paced summer signings!

Oasis007:
Manchester United have not been put off by Jadon Sancho signing a new contract at Dortmund and expect Leicester to value James Maddison at £70m-£80m. Solskjær also likes Callum Wilson (Bournemouth), Sean Longstaff (Newcastle) and Nathan Collins (Stoke).

- ESPN

Nathan Collins, an Irish "Smalling" with his vertical passes!

Darmian off to Parma!

Leyqute:
Tuanzebe, Bailley.

Any report on TFM's injury situation?

Our under 23 had a good game tonight. James Garner just can't stop scoring though he's playing further down the pitch, would love to see him get more game time in our cup ties.
That Newcastle's under 23 winger Victor Fernandez is very skillful but he lacks that final pass.

Oasis007:
Alexis Sanchez wants to leave Manchester United within the next fortnight. He's keen on a return to Serie A with Juventus, AC Milan and Napoli being the favourites to sign him.

- Mail

I think Sanchez will have a wonderful season if he fights for his place in that no 10 role. He's better than Lingard and more creative too. Gomez wil definitely supersede him when his time comes.

thorrvik55:
What of captain Young and Rojo?

Leyqute:
Exactly my thought. I think Laird is above him overall but AWB has that RB position locked down. O'Connor can play both RB and LB but he still needs some developing to do.

Laird can deputise for AWB while B. Williams slug it out with Shaw for that LB position.
