United thread 2018/19

[SWP's back]

I don't need to look I've been to every derby in the last 10 years and trust me I'm not talking horse cock. Look at the 1s we've lost and tell me which rag team had more talent? Answer none of them enjoy your Horse cock.

We went a decade without a win when we were crap. We went 30 years without a win at OT.

Then funnily enough, since we got good, we win far more than we lose, home and away as funnily enough, talent is still the biggest factor.

I thought this song was dedicated to the scum fans, they're so pretty vacant

Their brains are all on Holidays in the Sun!

I hope you have washed your eyes out with bleach. I can’t bring myself to visit the comical site.

You are definitely missing out. It really is great entertainment, particularly after a defeat. You have 90 % still thinking they will be as good as they used to be,if they spend a few quid and the other 10%, some of them City fans, trying to give the other 90% reality checks. Best bit is when they all talk about City through gritted teeth. You can almost feel the pain of them having to type the word City on to their keyboards. And long may it continue.

Is this post satire?

I don't think they looked poor tbh. I think they were lucky to advance against PSG but this was as good a level as they could produce. Moreover, for me, they now resemble more a typical United side under Ole than they did earlier in the season under Mou. Has to be remembered that Ole inherited a squad that he later said needed to be rebuilt. In that sense, United as an organization are quite a joke - still in a rebuilding mode years later after how much they have already spent. Says a lot about both Mou & the lack of a sporting direction in the absence of a sporting director

McTominay was the standout performer across both legs for United and considering he is an academy player, that is an important distinction in light of all the purchases they need to make. You look across to Ajax who United were lucky to beat in the Europa Final IMHO who have made enormous improvements at a fraction of the investments their English counterparts have had and you realize it is not simply about how much money you put into squad. As Cruyff says, never seen a bag of money win football matches

They are not top 4, United, and even when they finished 2nd 2 seasons ago I have felt they were at best a top 6 side - that still remains the case. To make that jump up, they don't have far to go and this coming week will reveal how far that gap remains. I think they remain 2-3 seasons from top 4

I love it when they transition.

They've been transitioning more years that Caitlin Jenner.

They don't know who to hate more. Fair play to this geezer who namechecks his three most hated teams in one arrow.

Flavoured ice cream ? ;-)

It's bloody bleedin' Albatross flavoured innit.

Yesterday morning on Radio Manchester they got blanket coverage of the upcoming match.

It was nauseating, 20 years since they did the treble, OGS played in No.20 etc etc.

They are absolutely awful and they will not get better any time soon.

 

[Blue Til Death]

The rags defence wouldn't get in the Cardiff team, as for Phil Jones, he's not even a footballer, hes a really big headless chicken that tackles with his face :-)

 

[MaineDAWG2008]

Won't really praise any of their players. But McTominay plays very much like Darren Fletcher.

And Fred ... Good player. Very much like Fernandhino. Not as good... But he will get there...

She got rid of her cock, they just seem to sign more of them.

I'm having trouble with posting the link, perhaps someone will oblige but I see from the BBC that ole is managing expectations by downgrading who they must aspire to being like. Now aiming for Barcelona level rather than ours.

Completely agree with that. The 'form out of the window' stuff I doubt it is true. I imagine it has the same effect as any bad team beating a good team, whether that is City V Spurs or City V United

Another shit season by the rags.

Correct, he knows they can't reach our level

Planet Rock radio station news just now (Which is a syndicated newsfeed, not just this station's) ''Manchester united suffered a shock defeat at Barcelona''

Really?
