United thread 2017/18

[Itsaar]

It never ceases to amaze me that Pearce is held up as some sort of expert. He was a great player but as a manager he was one of the most tactically stupid we have ever had. Apart from Alan Ball, probably the worst we have had in our history. He is clueless.

Frank Clarke made Ball look like Pep, but agree, Pearce knows FA.

 

[Impeccable One]

People are in for a shock if they think the Rags are going to drop like a stone, they will be up there all season.

They will continue to slap teams in the bottom 12 and perform poorly against the top sides, sure they will have the odd slip like at weekend but im sure it will be offest by the odd unexpected result against the top sides.

I expect they will finish 4th or 5th but will realistically be out of the title race by Jan.

Good job Huddersfield aren't in the bottom 12 or this statement would look stupid.

Hold on ... wait a minute ....

If we can include caretaker managers I'm going with Phil Neal

 

[Gingers Dad]

[Ancient Citizen]

Absolutely outrageous that John Benson always gets missed off these lists.

Jesus Christ!

What an absolute balloon!

Nice dig at the end re: Glad All Over.

He is a dinosaur, for all his record as a player it his sort of mentality that has put us light years behind the rest of the world.

The fact he spent so much time with the England management set-up tells you all you need to know about why the national team has failed for 50 years.

 

[davek1808]

Umm excuse me

Yeah but we don't know whether it was Pearce's decision or the beeny bears to throw James up front.

Fair comment but Pearce inherited a better team and couldn't play the guitar as well as Frank Clarke!

Not nice to speak ill of the dead, but I'll be happy to never ever think about Alan Ball's time at this club for the rest of my life.

You’re not the only one.

I was playing a poker tournament a few years ago online and Ball was one of the 'star' guest players.

I give him loads of stick and knocked him out as well.

Bit harsh punching someone over a game of cards.

They will realistically be out of the title race in two weeks!

What pass the ball around the back until the last 15 then lump it into the box for elbows.
