United Thread - 2021/22

Ronaldo offers nothing outside the odd goal. His overall play is dreadful and he should be now playing in China or the Middle East. They have him for another season after this one as no other top club will buy him.

to be fair to ronaldo, there was 4 or 5 times his positioning was perfect and just wasn’t getting any type of service!

Viva Ronaldo? Should have retired in the Summer.

would you retire if someone offered you half a million a week?

 

[RadcliffeRick]

Just to remind - he's on £160/week
Let that sink in awhile

That's bad, that's less than the minimum wage. It is true that they play for the badge :-)

One word to sum up Man Utd?

Petulant.

Shite is more descriptive.

Seriously I think there fooked for years there is nothing like a team there ........... this was a poor Boro performance thrown into the mix ..........so what happens now ??? Throw millions at it ??? That ain’t worked
Get in a proven manager ??? No that ain’t worked
Get a manager in whose a club legend ??? No not worked either
Get a interim manager in to overlook the next stage ????? That’s hardly working either.
Still who cares the arrogant pricks deserve this maybe if they rise up again they will be more graceful but I fooking doubt it

all that hopes on Ronaldo and let’s be honest he’s probably damaged them even further the clubs a mess long may it continue

They sound like us to be honest. Every set of fans has this weird paranoid “it’s blatant agenda against us” section of their support.

Every set of fans can’t be right though. Makes you think that there might not actually be an agenda against any club and that section of every set of fans needs to get real!

Exactly this. Ever been to a game and moaned afterwards about the ref only to speak to an opposition fan and they say the same?
We all just like a good moan

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

I didn’t watch the game but did they compare the cost of the squads or wages ?

I found this nugget on the BeeB write up of the game by Slyman Stone:

‘It was only the second time in 11 meetings with Premier League opposition that Middlesbrough had progressed, following on from their equally surprising success at Manchester City in 2015‘.

Viva Ronaldo? Should have retired in the Summer.

Based on what I’m seeing, it looks like he did?

Dodged a bullet .

Rag pal said its only a matter of time before they get it right and win the league again. 2/3 years once the right manager is in and right players brought in

i disagree. I can honestly see them doing a liverpool. Who’d have thought their league winning ways wouldve come so abruptly to an end.

is it 7 years ? I think they are good for at least another 10.
no way they are surpassing liverpool chelsea and us in that time, bar any disasters at those clubs/us
