The few rags left in the swamp yesterday were singing "we want our football back".

What they meant was we want the glory days of 30 years ago back. They're completely delusional.

I'm half hoping they somehow get a scrappy win against Bayern to keep the bandwagon going. It's not gonna happen though. They're utter shite and Ten Haag is clueless. Bayern will spank them. I reckon Ten Haag got 5 games max before he's sacked unfortunately.

Ten Haag has recruited mainly from Dutch football which is a very low standard and has paid over the odds. He can't hide behind the Glazers for ever and will have to go. The media are part of the problem because they keep telling their fans they have world-class players when it is obvous most of their team is technically poor. How many United players would get in West Ham's team for example?
 
Rags off field tactic= If we no longer want you we put calls in to the cock suckers in the Rag infested media and they will start a PR campaign against you.

I guess players only sign for them for obscene wages these days, honestly who was the last player who signed for them and actually improved as a player, its like a graveyard for talent.

From Saturdays Gossip:
Nice's France defender Jean-Clair Todibo, 23, has said he didn't want to join Manchester United in the summer because he 'didn't want to make a mistake"

Hopefully word is finally getting around to players about how bad things are behind the scenes there

Spitty to Neville on Twitter re Onana:

Tell him to stop waving his hands at players & use them to save some shots

Tide may be turning against Ten Hag in terms of support from match-going fans, if noise at the substitutions yesterday was anything to go by. When he goes - probably this season, unless results pick up - those ‘fans’ will say that Ten Hag failed because the job was too big for him. They’d be right. You could bring in Ferrán, Pep and Txiki and tear up the FFP rule-book while you’re at it, and it still wouldn’t work, because they need a Total Reset at levels a CEO, a director of football and a head coach can’t reach. They need to start acting like what they are - a top-half-of-the-table Big City club - like Aston Villa, say - but with a squad of overpaid and untalented misfits, who were hired by a succession of managers, who are on contracts too long to manage and wages too high to walk away from, with a decaying old-school stadium that generates no income from other sources and which can’t be improved, who when they lose a game - as all teams in their position do - should be graceful in defeat and admit they were beaten by the better team in order to dial down the media heat, rather than feel the constant need to keep that heat at boiling point by going on about a home defeat to Brighton as if the national flood defences had failed or there’d been a run on the banks, and who should publicly acknowledge that they’re just another club, that what they won 30 years ago has no bearing on next week’s game, and that the weight of expectation (“this is Manchester United we’re talking about”) is crushing everything they’re trying to do.

Ten Hag is not a bad coach - he’s up there with Luis Enrique, Klopp, Nagelsmann & Tuchel in the best-of-the-rest bunch. But he’s not working miracles, so he’ll have to go. Rinse, and repeat.

As John Lydon sang all those years ago: “and it’s all falling to bits…gloriously!”

I watched MOTD yesterday and the blame was laid at the stalled sale of the club. Really, that makes the players, coaching and tactics rubbish does it?

Quote from Ten Hag after taking over the swamp - "I will break the domination of Manchester City and Liverpool in the league" - Table today - NINE points adrift of City and SEVEN adrfit of the scoucers after only FIVE games. How many years is his contract for?

And who can forget his rousing speech last season saying they was going to Wembley to bring the cup back.

Guy is shite.

I'm absolutely convinced utd only got him coz he has a bald head and they thought he was a Pep clone.

Sancho has mental health issues. Ffs every one has issues. I'm fucking sick of sportsmen on radio going on about mental health. No fucker cares about Joe bloggs. I have enough on my plate to worry about any fycker on the radio who cries wolf ( when it seems they fuck up) to then issue a " I suffer from " just fuck off.

Same here. I am sick of these twats, with money, fame, who bleat on about their mental health, their sexual abuse, their struggles in life, whilst we all just cope with that shit whilst NOT having the money to make it feel better. It really irks me nowadays
 
Yeah its unbelievable that their strategy seems to be "let's copy City". Sanchez. Fred. Maguire. And finally a manager who looks a bit like Pep. Hilarious.
 
Player after player down the years have all spouted the same:
‘we just want to play and what goes on at board level doesn’t effect us.’
Every club that’s had any kind of upheaval whatsoever.
Fuck off blaming the owners - you’re paid to play, you know - for the badge, boyhood club, the glory because of course this is manchesnytid we’re talking about.
There was Shearer last night blaming it all on poor UMS. Dickhead.
They’re shite. End of. Hoping Bayern absolutely destroy them on Wednesday.
Loving it.
SCUM.
WTFAMu.
As you were Blu3s.
