United Thread - 2021/22

They'll not exit this purgatory so quickly even if they appoint Ten Hag or Zidane or Pochettino whoever. Even with the next savior, that's only part of it.

They'll still ALSO need the right players (!= the biggest names or T-Shirt sellers). And they'll ALSO need to sort their BTS setup (their suits clearly care more about building their "global brand" than playing good football and winning more often than not).

Magnanimous Man United dedicated their performance at villa park to Desmond

Like what you did there. Respect is due.

They've got the most expensive squad in the world and are still completely imbalanced, with glaring holes, and no identity whatsoever.

No central midfield. Their best players are all in their (late) 30's. They're an absolute fucking disaster.

West Ham, Southampton, Burnley next. I don't see more than 4-5 points out of that.

They've got their game in hand away at Brentford on Wednesday as well which is not straightforward. Mind you nothing is for them fuckers!
West Ham win tomorrow and at the Old Toilet next Saturday and there could be another double digit gap to keep an eye on, the one to 4th place. At this rate they might be in a scrap to get in the Europa Conference league!

Pigmol are going to have to make a monumental effort on the blatant cheating front to get that shower of shite into the top 4.

Another thing that makes me laugh about this lot is how bipolar they are.

Like, if they have a terrible result, they talk about themselves like they're the worst team ever, going nowhere. Then the next game they will fluke a win and it's all 'are we turning the corner, can we challenge for the title this/next season?' Even though both games were the same shockingly shit performance and they jus got luckier and flukier in the one they won. What they fail to realise is they are not inconsistent, they're just a mid-table team. After all, isn't that the very definition of mid-table? You don't lose most weeks so you're not in the relegation zone, but you don't win a lot either so you're nowhere near the top. You just win some, lose some, and draw some. That's the way they are. They're not 'inconsistent' and their games aren't either armageddon or the start of a beautiful new horizon - they're just utterly irrelevant and inconsequential and there to make up the numbers. Most clubs have this problem and lots accept it (by definition most clubs will be mid-table in a league) but this lot just can't accept they're past it and the glory days will never return.

It's a circus.

That's the nature of glory hunters, they care not a jot about the performance, it's just results that matter.

They're going to need a few more goalkeeping clangers. And they'll probably get them.

Not a fucking peep from any rags I know. They know how shit they are now. The realisation has dawned.

Bondsman. Same here. All comms seem to have failed to my rag chums. This belter on SadCafe “When will the fans demand more? We need to DRIVE our scum owners out of this club. NOTHING will EVER improve until these inept, corrupt carnies bugger off.”

The green and gold zebra mating season is upon us.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Poor confused rags. Upset because they are not winning the league nearly every year like they did with the piss-can, while at the same time feigning outrage that city winning it a few times is making it a one club league like Germany. Scouse level self-awareness

Two up, it was all going so well for Bruno
