The clubs rotten.

Ive argued all the time with rags that they cant keep blaming the glaziers , theyve spent a billion pounds on players, acted on every whim of every manager. Given the fans what they thought they wanted manager wise , how can u blame them?

Well ive now actually changed my tune . It is the glazers. The poison is well n truly set in now and without a total change, from top to bottom, maybe even a new stadium, before the club can grow again

Same as everton, same as us under wiggy, once the rot has taken hold there is no way back.

And the fan base also has to accept that they are merely a big club amongst other big clubs now. They probably wont dominate again now for many many years.

To me it looks fairly terminal, the rot is now right through the club there are loads of reasons why, it will take a radical overhaul to get them back

Listening to Pearce and his excitement when Utd went 2.1 up , go back a few months and his total devastation at full time in the champions league final, what exactly did we do to him ha ha ha , him and Alan Ball worst City managers ever for me …

The ex copper in his cheque pyjama bottoms lol,

What did we do to Pearce? Managing us revealed to him his limitations, which are legion.

The arrogance of their players is genuinely incredible, just been watching the interviews after the game and the poundland haaland says that he scored 3 goals if you count the offside one which he was a little bit cheated on and that his second goal was a signature goal, firstly your team lost so be humble, second we dont count offside goals and u were offside so thats not cheated and thirdly you havent scored enough goals to have a signature goal and who the fuck has a signature goal you arrogant wannabe

I googled ‘hojlund interview’ and all I got was Interviews with Erling. Sign of the times.

How many trophies have they won since baconface left them ?

Hopefully just enough to keep them thinking everything is ok

Can we merge this thread with the Joke Thread. It would save time moving from one to the other.

Simple Slyman does it again, below is an excerpt from his match report:

Ten-man United led twice through young striker Rasmus Hojlund, the second a brilliant effort as the 20-year-old took advantage of Davinson Sanchez's slip to race 50 yards and beat Fernando Muslera with a deft finish.

Completely ignoring the fact they werent down to ten men both times they led, he couldnt lie in bed straight

It is for the great unwashed who support them world wide even though they haven’t a clue where Manchester is.

Rashford is just not a very good footballer. He had a decent purple patch last season, lots of average players have had a good few months before. I always said he can't sustain it, he's not good enough.

if he has 3 seconds to think about something, his decision making and end product falls apart. Dangerous enough running into empty space but that's about it.

If your team has any aspirations of playing good football and keeping possession, he isn't your man, he's technically not very good. I can see a use for him if a game is very stretched and you want a sub to come on and potentially get on the end of some long ball where there's plenty of space, then hes a pretty good option.

But he has a very lazy attitude on the pitch. Heart the size of a pea.

The modern day Agbonlahor.

They're definitely not Manchester police vans.

Know them well, do we? ;-)
