The best bit is nobody would want to buy any of their players, they are stuck with them until they leave on a free, or are paid off and sold for peanuts to the Italians.

It’ll take close to £800 mill for them to build a new team, and there is no way their owners are doing that!

I think they are in a long-term structural decline. The club is set up as if it was still the 1990s on and off the pitch. The Glazers' business model is based purely on growing the share price and taking as much cash as possible for themselves. I think they are ready to sell now but the buyers are not queueing up because, although the United brand is huge, there is not enough value for an investor. The Saudis could have afforded it but see Newcastle as a better long-term investment. United are the sports world equivalent of Marcus and Spencer.

Buffon recently said Ronaldo ruined the team in Turin, it's all about adapting the whole team to his needs while neglecting the rest of the team and tactics to beat the opposition, Juve regressed and United are doing the same for a guy approaching 40 years old.

.... and don't I just love it!
 
I watched the Luke Shaw interview.
I revel in the rags suffering like the next blue.
They have got serious teamwork problems in that squad.

If it was us then Fernandinho would have it ironed out immediately.
 
May have got missed in the chaos of them getting beat again last night but the Glazers have decided to recoup £11m this Friday:





You love to see it.

"We got you Ronaldo, Sancho and Varane...AND you celebrated it...so let us have our money."

I agree that he is most likely very hard to work with but if he was in a decent squad, under a strong manager and all he had to do was wallow in the glory of scoring a shitload of goals with the minimum of effort, he'd be much easier to handle.

I'm glad we never got to try it but I bet Ronaldo at City would not have been poisonous at all. People might have likened him to the likes of Lampard or Vieira and having a future as a great manager ahead.

Ronaldo is poison because it’s all about him

It was heartwarming to see Stan Laurel getting a run out again in the Rags back line.
Not seen him for a while, thought he may have taken up male modelling as a sideline.

They really are shit though, strolling around, not tackling, faces like boiled shite,
I don't think they like it very much over there.

My Birthday. My United. My First Game. My First Defeat.

Fancy coming all the way from India to watch(who takes their Ear Cans to a match?) United, only to find out you've got the worst seat in OT.
