Anybody had utd fans say that it's boring this season, the league is rubbish and the standard has dropped?
I got a couple of dad's at my kids school who are your typical fickle utd fan. Ded chatty if they win, ded giddy if we get beat, complete silence if they lose and completely ignore if we win.
One even said the league is boring this season.
Never seem to have watched their match if they lose, watched every second of it if they've won.
So see through and so predictable. I've had them on toast this season nearly every week, it's been an absolute joy.

They can't have been " giddy " much then.

Wankers.
 
Exactly, their policy is fucked. They had no requirement for him, I would argue the same with Lukaku.

In fact there is a real argument that they should have saved the money from Pogba, Lukaku and Sanchez and really addressed their weaknesses.

Sanchez was done only so that we don't get him. Lukaku may not have been their first choice, but he is definitely a Mourinho centre-forward. 100 goals at the age of 24 is a great stat to have and he still has time to improve. At the time of signing Pogba, they definitely needed a WC midfielder. It just didn't work out for them well.
 
The rags' basic problem is that, unlike City, they have no vision for the future and no plan for the present. This goes back to having no succession planning for GPC's retirement 5 years ago. Whereas City buy players to fit into Pep's tactical palns and style of play Woodwood and Maureen just pick up players who they think have a greater commercial appeal with shirt sales and twitter followers. Then they just shoehorn them into the side with no tactical plan whatsoever. The latest example is squeezing Sanchez into the left wing position and displacing Martial from his natural position to the right. Totally fucking clueless the lot of them.
I think that financial success is more important to them than building a team that is totally successful on the field. You may think they are the same thing and given time they may converge but individual stars make them more money than watching stars develop.

Wasted Cash?
 
Utds doom should be as concerning to them as ours was when we dropped into the old div 3.
Terrible money spent on good but awfully under performing players in most part due to the succession of laughable managers who cannot get the best out of them. As a knock on effect sponsorship and merchandise sales will drop.

I think it was THIS season that was their "Gillingham" year and its not happened.
If the manager and his negativity doesn't go their best players will want to in the summer.

I think they'll keep him though and throw some more money at it because the board are scared of him and have invested a lot and that is even worse than getting rid imo.

LOL.

Who cares anyway, remember Blues and never forget the total indignity and lack of respect they showed us for years and years.

Let's stick it to them.
