Hugely improved !! Please describe what that means to you because it clearly means the total opposite of my understanding of the phrase.
To me they have a couple more points than under Ralph. Their goal difference is still shit, the players they have bought are multi million pound buys but they are 4th. If it hadn't been for a totally corrupt decision in the Derby they wouldn't even be 4th.
Mouriniho was a far better manager than this Dutch fraud. Hell Moyes and Van Gaal were. Neither of them would have signed Weghorst. If the dips and Chelsea hadn't decided to take a season off, this much improved team would be 6th or 7th.

I'm wondering how long the Ten Hag myth will last. Once again he had a stinker against a top half team. Transfers have been crap, team selection today was awful. Substitutions were laughable today like something from the 1980's. They've been spanked at Brentford, City and Liverpool. They have lost at Arsenal and Newcastle when they were totally outplayed.

Yes, there is little or no evidence of managerial greatness. He is just better than what went before, which isn’t saying much.

In every respect,on and off the field,they have hugely improved,but you clearly will not accept anything different to what your blue tints allow you to see,so it's pointless trying to have a balanced discussion.

No one expected a Newcastle win yesterday,and had Casemiro been on the pitch i do not think they would have done.

You can’t take any manager who signs Weghorst seriously.

But Casemiro wasn't on the pitch and utd got spanked like they have done a few times this season. Even when Casemiro was playing

@FantasyIreland I'm about to take the dog out but simply saying they have hugely improved is not really a reply. How have they improved ?

'Hugely' is a stretch.

Tactically, maybe; technically, no, and the only way they've improved off the field...

Hugely improved?

Just for context they are 3 points better off in the league than last year and thats with the aid of some very favourable VAR decisions

In The FA Cup they've been at home every round and if it wasn't for Fulham imploding they would be out

The League cup they faced Newcastle who completely shit the bed in the final

Europe they have faced cannon fodder and in the case of Barcelona yet again for some unknown reason they shit the bed as well

They are papering over the cracks and are over a £1B in debt. They are still a complete shit show

I have to agree with this, People are reading too much into Casemiro.

He started at Anfield just a few weeks
ago and ended up getting hit for 7.

He came on in the Manchester Derby and still conceded two more goals.

They got battered away at Villa with him starting.

If the Rags want to think or anyone else for that matter then happy days. They've far bigger problems than missing a little fat fucker in midfield.

Maybe it's because they've spent over £1.2 billion on enormous amounts of shit. Dalot, Fatty Shaw, Fred, Weghorst, Antony, Sancho, Martial, Fernandes, Martinez, Varane ect Not a single one of those players would make our bench...Not one.
