The Caf really is comedy gold at the moment. It's all kicking off.
Multiple threads about boring football, having a wafer-thin squad, the youth academy being run by part-time employees, Giggsy lying in wait to be the next manager and leaking anti-Turtle propaganda to friendly hacks.
Look at United's striker situation.
IN
Rug head-twice bent them over and now pulling in mega bucks for consulting on team selection and transfer targets but adding very little on the pitch.
Martial-Crazy money for a promising kid who will be a boom or bust player but surely will need a year or two to settle by which time Turtle will be sunning himself in his Algarve mansion.
Depay-reminds me of Mane at Southampton in as much as he looks awesome one minute and awful the next.
Pereira-the next great hope from the youth ranks. Hardly played a minute of meaningful first team football.
OUT
Tia Maria-hated his time in PL, cost them a fortune for one poor season and left in comical circumstances.
Van Persie-bundled out of the door and sold for very little. Gone from unstoppable to uselectable in two seasons.
Falcao-swapped United's bench for Chelsea's and not looking like a regular starter for either.
Little Penis-will be crossing his heart and goal hanging in Bundesliga from now on as TT didn't rate him at all.
Jizzyjazz-match winner and best young striker in Europe to banishment and maybe departure in the space of a few weeks.
James Wilson-scored winner for England u21 a few days ago. With a vacancy at United maybe he's the man? No. Loaned out to Derby.
Maybe Van Loony observed how successful City were playing without strikers last December and that's his cunning plan for the season.
All of United's best performers this season have been defensive minded. Smalling, Shaw, Damian and the prospect of getting the chastened De Gea back in goal is the straw that the LVG loyalists are clinging to.
Whatever happened to the well oiled machine that United seemed to be a few short years ago?
