Two weeks ago this, if I was a Derby County supporter I would be concerned at this guys football knowledge making predictions like that.

Another thing with this - why do the media run these types of stories?

Can anyone remember such a question being asked of a former player who answered against his old club?

The headline is nothing news, it's the opinion of someone irrelevant to the question being asked.

The journalist who asked the ex-player is wasting the time of the club (i.e.. Derby) by cluttering up a press conference to talk about something that has nothing to do with them.

The ex-player predictably plumps for his old team.

The story takes up room on a website where they could explain things such as why Alex Ferguson attending United games is essential, what Scudamore meant by "a strategic plan", what Merseyside police have done about the non-essential firework display on Sunday or why Martin Tyler is an old bitch.

Because since 2013 your average rag has seen their team achieve the square route of fuck all in terms of the premier league. What they once took for granted is now beyond them and even chucking vast amounts of money at it simply doesn’t work when you don’t have the right people organising it. They live in a world of self loathing as they can’t bang on how successful down the local pub or on social media United are whilst poking fun at everyone else.

One tiny glimmer of hope happened this January as the rags lumbered to the top of the league. This needed validating by the lemmings that follow that shit stain of a club by Wayne Rooney stupidly making claims like that when there was half the season to go, they click on it and lap it up. sky sports sells the advertising space. Sky are winning here not the rags building and destroying peoples hopes in Trafford.

Would Pep be successful at the rags like he would be here? Old piss can Fergie in the back ground and all his disciples telling him it’s not how it’s done at United. He wouldn’t have control like he does have at City, Van Gaal and Mourinho highlighted people were in the back ground trying to knife you in the back. Sounds a bit like City in the early 90s.

One of the reasons he left Barcelona and Bayern is because he was sick of the drama and politics, both in the director's box and in the media, and he just wants to get on with the football. United is a club with the exact same problems, just as Liverpool had in the 90s and 00s. One of the reasons he likes it at City is because we let him get on with what he's best at, which is coaching football teams. It might happen to us eventually in a decade or so, but for the time being there's no ex-players sticking the knife in about not playing some nonsense mythological "right" way, there's no president who thinks they know better than the coach, just him, the best facilities in the world, and an organised system of recruitment.

Now they aren’t top, daily mail have been publishing articles about their wonderkids every day for the past week. Laugh my tits off every afternoon when I read about another United prodigy. When did they last produce a decent player, I mean genuine quality. Rashford and mctominay are gash, so they don’t count. Greenwood is good, I’ll give them that.

They're playing that Diallo kid tonight against West Ham. You know, the £35M kid, that grew up in Salford and came through their academy...

Bit early for all that, but they must be confident.

Nah he's only on the bench. Maybe he should go out on loan or something...

If anyone is having rags tell them it’s so unfair that we can buy the league because the glazers won’t spend any money show them this

Interesting, quick rule of thumb, you could argue that maybe 15 of our signings didn’t work out, looking at the rag list it’s roughly 25-30. Poor recruitment strategy and long may it continue
 
Don't usually watch their games but fuck me they are embarrassingly shite.

EDIT: Been watching 10 minutes and I've seen:

- Telles pass the ball out of play with no player within 10 yards, and it was only a 10 yard pass!
- Matic fail to play an obvious through ball that could easily have led to a goal despite having two opportunities to do so, which he clearly saw, because the degree of difficulty of the pass was slightly more than his normal 1/10
- Wan-Bissaka shank an easy clearance out for a corner
 
The mighty Manchester United are celebrating getting together through to the sixth round for the 14th consecutive season . How the mighty have fallen
 
Rags have won so there wont be any diversionary headlines , on line racism abuse of players , covid positive tests etc will take a back seat and everyone can revel in their sensational cup victory , when i found out they were drawing i flicked on BBC for the last 20 minutes to watch an enthralling end to end game cup tie ...........what a pile of shite.
