Seems Amorim is asking to be sacked

They again will fall in the same hole as previous years. Sign a manager, who prefers to set-up differently than previous one, then fail and make the same eternal circle again.

The nice thing about eternal circles is that you don't have to worry about "turning the corner".

It is so funny, so-called decent players when they get to United turn to shite, yet players they let go of become decent:

Incoming - Sesko is the example of the weekend

But outgoings!

McTominey
Elanga
Anthony
Hojland (scored on his debut I believe)
Onana - man of the match wherever he is now, I read

I'm sure there are others, this is just off the top of my head.

The same pattern also applies to their managers too! (Actually scratch that - didn't three of their ex-managers get sacked in like one week recently!)

This isn't a recent thing - DiMaria - Alexis Sanchez and some Columbian guy who they bought off the back of a bad injury who's name escapes me... same mistakes over and over again.

Yep!

Without putting too finer point on it, they're fucked mate.

I've got absolutely no idea what these potential incoming players are being sold over at the swamp.

If you're a parent of a professional footballer or an agent with a modicum of integrity, the rags are the last club you would want them to join.

That's not me being a biased City fan that hates the fuckers more than words can express, that's just common sense.

Unless, it's just simply a case of: "we can quadruple your weekly wage" why else would you go there.

I can't believe that I'm the only person who can remember what Alexis Sanchez said after his first training session at the swamp: "I wished that I could rip up my contract"

Funny how none of these pricks in the media don't mention that.

Their manager is a clown, I don't know how/why they put up with him - Even Potter at West Ham has a better win % since Amorim has been there

He’s getting away with murder

I adore taking the piss out of them.

I know what you mean about the post-mortem after every loss. However, it's that level of scrutiny and obsession that's going to keep them in the wilderness.

Unlike, most teams that recieve criticism from the media and the pundits, the rags are incapable of solving their problems.

Their conundrum is too great. They're a bang average team that think they should be in the top four challenging for silverware.

The media and their fans reinforce this ridiculous notion and each year it gets worse.

It's not too dissimilar to why the men's England football team will never win anything, ever again. The pressure on the players and manager to "bring it home" after fifty-eight years is beyond unmanageable.

Yes, their a bang average team without a goal scorer, they've spunked millions trying to find one and there as rare as rocking horse shit. All this bullshit about getting players to fit systems would fade away if they found a goal scorer.
70 odd million on Sesko and Houland, there fuckin garbage.

Looking at their signings, Mbueno being a perfect example, who insisted that he only wanted to sign for the rags, suggests that the contract/salary they are able to get is the prime reason for signing rather than what they might achieve in titles/cups etc.

Too many of their signings fail to achieve anything like success and their careers drift into mediocrity.

Piss poor judgement from the club and a lack of footballing ambition over money from the players, ultimately end up in a poor overall outcome for both parties.

Seemingly so obvious to everybody apart from the club and their signings.

How long until the narrative starts to pivot back to 'Frenkie de Jong' is the missing piece' again? It's been a while

Yes. It really is piss poor judgment and Shrek called the pisscan out for it. What was it he said?

"The club lacks ambition"

I've mentioned this before, but it's worth repeating. If the rags don't get their shit together in the next five years they'll be competing with the Saudi league for players.

The rags in their desperation to negotiate will tell the player "we'll match their offer of £400,000.00 per week, and we can offer you premier league football and a chance to play in EFL and FA cup competitions"

I don't know about you, but I'm living my best life watching that club stumble from chaos to catastrophes.
