I believe there could be some disharmony in the rags dressing room (again).
What with the Rat being made captain and the Slab genuinely being treated like a lepher. Might of upset some of the English playing rags.

You only have to look at Arsenal and Newcastle to see they have a structure and know what they are doing. They may not be as good as City (yet) but in development terms, they're country miles ahead of the Rags.

My impression is they are starting from scratch at OT again and no one has a clue what they are trying to do. The weaknesses in that squad are obvious, and they have spent big money on shite (again.) It's going to cost them an awful lot of money to be good again, and that's assuming ETH is the right man for the job.

 

[TonyM]

It's so funny that they bought Mount.

And yet they'll blame the Glazers again - for giving them too much money to waste on players who aren't going to improve them.

Even Spturds seem to have an identity after a month of the new manager coaching "Ange ball."

Whereas Ten Rags after a year in the job and £400m expenditure is still no further than coaching "Ole ball."

Already had a rag mate saying they should sack Ten Bob! Says he has no idea what system to play if any and players he’s brought in are crap, love it.

It’s not that there’s many decent managers available.
Lopetegui is still available, but I’m sure he’ll be snapped up before long. So around November/Christmas if things continue for united, they’ll be scrabbling around for someone. Ole still free?!?

 

[Ithryn Luin]

Absolutely a piss take. Funny as fuck!

That’s brilliant!

 

[hertsblue]

Damn; that's disappointing.

Yep
Teams were walking through their non existent midfield, now he might accidentally stumble on a more solid one with this luck of any injury

As PR37 (38/39?) seemed to know what the rags should have been doing in every match he played during his second spell at the swamp, maybe he should take the job.

Should United be expected to compete with City in Pep era.

I was reflecting on united place in football at the moment especially post SAF. My thought process was why do united fans expect united to better every team in England. Fact is we're one of a couple of teams with the resources to get the best people from playing and coaching staff so we're...

And they reckon we're obsessed with them!

I think that’s a good post. He’s pretty much saying Guiardiola isn’t just the best but is close to being unbeatable.

However, since Pep came to City in June 2016, United have spent £1,008,110,000 on players. So I would say they definitely should be competing with us, or be a hell of a lot closer.

City have spent £1,070,591,000 in the same time, just £62,481,000 more (pretty much one player’s worth).

But the gist of what he says explains why they haven’t been: Pep Guardiola.

Personally the fact that the ponce was playing for them again, tells you exactly what is wrong with the management of the rancid shithole.

It was clear to most knowledgeable individuals that the **** would cause problems from day 1.

His goals simply papered over the massive cracks in their management and planning - totally fucking amateurish !

Give it Giggsy till the end of the season, sign Wesley Snider and keep wearing Norwich City scarves. Job done. Oooooo nearly forgot:

SCUM

Glad the glazers haven't got anything about them as in how to run a football club! Because Ten Bob the fraud would out the door now and the Brighton manager Would be appointed

Bloke on talk sport last.nigjt saying Mount is crap and is the new Dele Ali

Oh yes, Potter still available.

So lopetegui, Potter… any others available for them? (I’m planning ahead for the inevitable)

He’s nowhere near as good as Deli Ali was and never will be … Both on the same level now though it has to be said …!

Ali was better, that tells you how bad Mount is!

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Beige seems like a reasonable description of Mount's abilities .
