Quote from: thewobbler on December 03, 2023, 01:12:01 PMTo end up with one of Rashford, Martial or Sancho at a club could be seen as bad luck.

To have two of them could even be seen as bad luck.

To have all three of them though... that's high-level incompetence. A resounding unwillingness to see the the wood for the trees.

And that's before you throw Antony into the mix.
Couldn't make a decent forward between them. At least Antony puts the shift in.

Quote from: snoopdog on December 03, 2023, 08:35:38 AMWhere is the Midfield, every game they are being overrun.  McTominayis not good enough to be in the PL never mind at utd. Rashford is a sulk and shouldn't be in the team. He lazily walks around the pitch. Has no clue about positioning. The defence has no protection whatsoever. Luke Shaw and Harry Maguire where the only guys with any credit from last night. Onana couldn't be blamed for the goal. Wan Bisaka went missing at the crucial moment. Bruno is not a captain. Yest he creates but he gives the ball away more times than he creates. Istanbul summed him up a goal and then gave away 2 frees that they scored from. How long does it take for the club to get Ratcliffe in to start making changes. ETH picks the team and bought alot of these players, so while people say he needs time, time for what. If we saw a game plan or improvement ok maybe but he is as much to blame as the frauds he puts out on the pitch every game. Anfield will be another horror show and will prob see the end of ten hag as Munich will dump them out of Europe a few days beforehand. A bleak mid winter awaits but hardly unexpected.   

Good point.

And you  could see a similar score line to last season in the  Liverpool game , the way things are going

Keane called it with this group of players.

Body language is woeful and for all the ridiculous hype about Newcastle and their domination in the game, Utd could and nearly should have got away with a draw at the end.

Miles off it all over the pitch, always going to be tough after travelling back from Istanbul though but Rashford & Martial were disgraceful; Very little effort put in from both players, Martial was a lost cause years ago but Rashford has been pathetic all season and deserves all the abuse coming his way. Dalot gave one of the worst displays I've ever seem from a United fullback, appalling from start to finish and McTominay wasn't much better. He was bullied from start to finish by Joelinton.

They've got to be careful with Hoylund but against a good side Martial won't cut it, need to bring a centre forward in this January. Maguire played well but if Ten Hag is still here next season then I don't think Maguire will, his reluctance too take the ball from Onana is an issue.

3 home games in a row and need 3 wins, I'm not optimistic.

Martial is 21 months away from a Utd testimonial. Sums Utd right up.

The Glazers have been short changed frankly, imagine spending £1.5bn on transfers over 10 years (not to mention wages) for this to emerge, laughable.

Keyser soze

Anyone who has had the misfortune to work in an organisation with useless leadership will immediately recognise how the onfield performances are a reflection of the organisation as a whole. Feel really sorry for the succession of managers who have come in and had to deal with that shit show.

The onfield performances will never improve consistently whilst the same incompetents remain in charge.

SAF won 5 league titles and a european cup under the Glazer ownership.

The players and manager should be refunding their wages to Malcolm, Avram et al.

The organisation as a whole has invested billions in these clowns.

Ferguson and Gill ran that club. Every aspect. Now the manager runs just the first team. The recruitment and all other aspects fall to the Glazers and the imbeciles they put in place. Woodward was a perfect example. Hadn't a clue about recruitment, contracts that's why we've a load of unsuitable players who the club can't move on. Like Jose said when he spoke about players who had left, look where they play... IF they play. Off the field they are driven solely by commercial revenue, no social responsibility. No responsibility to look after the club, stadium falling down. They hadn't even a ladies team until they were shamed into it. And the Glazers haven't spent 1.5 billion, that is Utds money. Money the club generated. The Glazers haven't put one penny in and have taken millions of dividends.

That bollix is like  a stray cat that keeps  hanging around your house , stinking the place out. No  matter how many times you chase  it away or ignore it , he  never goes away

Then one day , you catch the bollix, drive  20 miles and dump him off (his loan move to Sevilla). A few weeks later , you open your front door, and the bollix  is staring at you!

Theres not to many United lads like that.

There is part of me that admires the sheer brazenness of Martial and Rashford. They're not trying to hide their contempt for putting in a shift.

Some players at loggerheads with a club still put on a facade for the fans, badge kissing, running around to be noticed, throwing in dirty tackles.
These two are one step short of bringing an armchair and crossword puzzle onto the pitch with them.

In the Ferguson era, a player that got ahead of himself was gone - think of Ince, Beckham, Kanchelskis, Heinze and Tevez. Now it's completely flipped, players can down tools to usher the manager out the door.

Thats part of the reason I'd rather keep Ten Hag and road the likes of them 2. These clowns have downed tools under multiple managers now. I'd sooner play an under 18 as Rashford tbh.
