Re: 23 Teams Qualify For 2025/2026 Champions League by amazingspiderma:
Nothing for Man U. I am a life long Man U fan.

We are not going to win any trophy , only trophy beer in Nigeria.

Reasons, for just one player's attitude who:
1. Doesn't run to collect the ball into uncomfortable positions ahead of his teammates.

2. Doesn't/Cannot not take on defenders.

3. Always withdraws to Central midfield position when he should have positioned in attacking midfield and more dangerous areas.

4. Cannot take on opponent defenders one on one, Hence, opponents Defensive Midfielders are free to support attacks without fear of consequences.

5. Doesn't improve the young players around him especially Garnacho , Hojlund.

6. Cannot initial counter attacks.

7. Keeps pointing fingers on the field to where others should pass the ball.

8. Restricting creativity from others.

9. Loose the ball so easily as in build up play and will still be picked first for the next match.

10. Everyone around him was sold to please his style of play yet he is still sh*t and just above relegation. McT is a beast, Fred has been amazing, Rasford has been better, Anthony is in the final of Conference league.

11. Yet he has pool of worshippers who don't see that he attitude is going to take us to the championship.

12. The Stats is screwed, all passes this seasons has been behind the opponent defense line. Look at how Iniesta played the game from midfield.

13. They call him the King of assist, the quality of the assist also matters.
Man City midfielders work the ball so hard that the just want Haaland to position himself for a tap in. But at United our youngsters are made to run 20m to control the ball, dribble two defenders and then score. This is mentally exhausting.
Goals need to be shaped, so that the assist allows the last man to pick his spot just to tap in ball.

So when last did Man United score a tap-in.
A long time, because the attacking Midfielders can't hold the ball and penetrate the opponents defensive line.


Summary

Bruno is very talented, yet he is not Athletic enough to impose himself on the game, and change the shape of the opponents.
Leave too much space for others to run at yet can't run into those spaces himself.
Can't build and run a counter attack.

Most people will say he is unique.
Yes he is uniquely going to get us relegated.

A team with just one assist player is screwed. It will depend on the strength and weakness of that one player, while others players development are overlooked.

I am a United: Fergi, Ole,Cole, York, Beckham, Ronaldo are about grits and fights and courage and strength and the rest is history.

Such a shame, the mess we are in.

guy so u are blaming Bruno for the mess? In which fellows like Antony, Rashford failed woefully. Look at the attack can't score and take a look at Dorgu very terrible in crossing. The whole team mess is from the board

Re: 23 Teams Qualify For 2025/2026 Champions League by Antichristian2:
Hmmm!

Almost all olden days top six get problems. Liverpool was just lucky to win the league!

Arsenal - Every season is their season till they become perpetual 2nd fiddle to the 1st.

Man city - Wrong/outdated tactics, new players not yet fitting in, opposition getting their styles,...just so unfortunate.

Chelsea - They are not yet contesting. Infact, they've tried if they make top 4. But far from the Chelsea of those days! Palmer and others loss of form. Sometimes poor tactics and playing players out of position.
The Chelsea ladies are teaching them how it should be with the treble.

Man U - New players, wrong tactics, poor form, laziness.
Tottenham - injuries concerns, loss of form, it's just too unfortunate they linger with Man U among the last five in the table.

Yet to have 40 points!

You nailed it 📍
I tell people Fernandez is a good passer of the ball isn't a warrior just as MC Tomnay. A flexible player always pointing at where other players should pass the ball always taking on the pitch of play. Can not initiate counter attack, doesn't run to collect the ball always waiting for the ball to get to him . A pundit at Naples had to made the statement Manchester United made a huge mistake by letting Tomnay leave the club

Man city should scale through!

Two more out of Newcastle, Chelsea and Aston villa, Nothinham Forest.

Well you are fairly right ...but don't u think we need to point accusing fingers to some more people....who brought dogu....isn't it a shame how united degraded to fielding players of such low ability?.... normally Bruno is a good player but he isn't a good leader on the pitch and he talks too much ....and for how much people hype him I still don't see him good enough to be compared to any quality midfielder in epl history...Bruno misses to much passes ..you can't be throwing 20 passes and like 10 won't be accurate then u say u are world class. HELL NO . But it's unfortunate he is still the only player that can make things happen in the team...and the way he shouts and complaints is another thing I detest even Ronaldo don't complain that much...

The situation of MAN U is particularly a big worry,a team that had 30 points by December 2024 and five months later,being May 2024 still have 39 points,i.e 9 points in 5 months and you want to go to Champions league to do what?Normally they should be relegated by the English FA via express order.
