Man Utd Thread:

Leaks from tools who were downing tools to rinse and repeat the cycle of hiring and firing managers.
Christ when you talk about clearing out players the likes of McTominnay, Maguire get named but they are decent lads who can do a job when needs be.

There are others who are feed info to the media and are frankly not grown-ups. They need clearing out. Even if they can play well, it's not worth it.

Some lads are honest but just past it. Prime Eriksena and Casemiro would be additions to any dressing room. Antony needs ran as a prime example. Sancho has played well for 6 months and can be good, but is he a good lad.

What happens if things get sticky with the new man in? As I said before Klopp bought adult men. United buy assholes for too long and then lads who are OK at first turn.

Hjolund seems OK and could flourish with stability. Garnacho is another who could blossom. Mainoo is already ahead of schedule. Dalot has improved.

But there will need a new centre back, left back, centre mids...

Antony tries but he just has very little ability tbh. Maguire and McT have slightly more ability and good lads that can do a job but just not top players. Hojlund, Garnacho, Mainoo and Diallo should be the basis of the squad next year. Martinez and Shaw are as good as anyone on their day but just cant stay fit.

Ten Hag in.

RedHand88 · May 25, 2024, 03:42:58 PM

Have to admit.

That was some goal.

gallsman · May 25, 2024, 03:44:44 PM

That was outstanding.

jcpen · May 25, 2024, 04:56:33 PM

Deserved win to be fair.
Hope those Man U fans on here that said they wished they had lost to Coventry are happy

Be harsh to sack Ten Hag now.

Crap... Thursday night football

Congrats to the Utd fans on here. Made City look ordinary. Nice finish to your season, after a lot of pain.

I presume that means they are in Europa League now? Probably could have done without that.

Ah, the group stages can be easy. Players now a days want to been seen in Europe rather than hid away in their domestic leagues.

I might be going soft in my oul age but wasn't too annoyed by that...seeing Pep's bitter baldy head helped mind!

Great performance today. Brilliant result. Every player put a shift in and City looked ordinary. Bad season but finished with a good trophy. Inited win means chelsea are conference and Newcastle aren't in Europe at all.

Blowitupref · May 25, 2024, 08:29:47 PM

Some win for United was a mile out on my prediction thinking City would win by a bit to spare. Yes I believe that's the case so bad day for Newcastle especially missing out on European football altogether next season

Honestly didn't think United would get near city. But fair play, it was a very good performance.

Ten Hag today probably showed more passion and spoke more honestly than I've seen in 2 years.

Sacking him now would be like shooting Bambi's mother , but as quite a few panelists said today, where were those kind of performances all season? One cup final performance can't disguise the absolute shambles that this season has been

Wenger was expected to go in 2017 , but a good fA cup win won him another year or two , and it really went pear shaped in those couple of years. He should have walked after the 2017 cup win. Maybe ETH would be better doing the same , bow out with a great performance and trophy , rather than it inevitably go absolute tits-up in the coming months.
