Hoping the Glazers are getting bored by now, a fortune has been spent on the team yet we're back to square one and the stadium redevelopment which will likely just end up with South stand been knocked down and rebuilt will cost between £300-400m.

Unless United make a lot of really god signings I don't see them making top 4 next season, Pep struggled to make top 4 in his first season despite inheriting a lot of top players and buying many more. The change of style took a while to get used too and won't be any different for United, their saving grace is the change of rules which I think kick in from 2023-24 which practically guarantees United a CL place despite finishing outside of the top 4 which will appeal to the Glazers.

If you're referring to clubs who've historically done well, that's been scrapped or is to be scrapped in favour of 5th place instead for the PL.

Just more loans leveraged against the club itself whilst they still draw out X number of millions of dollars a year.

It's a successful cash cow for them, just get in more "business partners" to make up some of the shortfall if CL is lost...

United fans probably wanted to see some Utd team that plays for the Jersey!

Start them in the next game, could do no worse.

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

I went last night, some crowd and atmosphere for a youth game. Shows the size of the club but unfortunately we're now back in sleeping giant territory.

Honestly would. Why bother playing players that don't want to be there or won't be next season anyway.
Only senior United players coming out of that season with any credit are De Gea, Ronaldo and Fred to an extent.

Finally the shittiest of shitty seasons is ending this weekend. Here's hoping for a better 2022-23 season. Even a few better performances would do.

Woeful season over with another defeat and no goal scored. Finished with a embarrassing 58 points 6 points off the previous worst PL points total for United.  Still qualified for the Europa league i think that highlights how poor this league is outside the top two.

New manager was in attendance at least he has no hair to pull out.

0 Goal difference as well. Pathetic.

The top two are out of this world, the next three Chelsea (74), Spurs (71) and Arsenal (69) are decent strong sides.

Man Utd won the League with 75 points in the 96/97 Season.

There was a league of decent strong sides in 96/97 that's why the league points was much lower.  Arsenal and Tottenham are not near the levels of where they use to be even this awful and totally disjointed United side managed to beat Tottenham home and away this season.
