He’s just bitter that they never offered him a job.

Anyway it’ll be fine now because they’re getting Dave Brailsford in. A cycling coach.

I wonder if he’ll bring his Jiffy bag with him?

Get your steak knives out as the media is going to be a serving a t bone steak sized portion of United in crisis.

Gary Neville whinges endlessly about "The Glazers this" and "the Glazers that" but they've owned united for 18 years and in nearly half that time, up to 2013, they were pretty successful. Alright, people moaned about the interest and dividends going out but they were undoubtedly successful. So was that down to the Glazers?

And they've still won things in the last ten years, although nowhere near as much, and never the PL or CL.

There are definitely things you CAN lay at the Glazers' door. The appointment of Woodward and Arnold, without appropriate footballing appointments at senior level. They've chased commercial visibility above football visibility (e.g. Ronaldo). But Johnny Evans and Dalot failing to mark Haaland for the second goal, and continuing to pick underperforming players, or play them out of position, and those players seemingly showing a lack of motivation? That's on the football side.

I hate the bloke but this is what Carragher was saying yesterday. Neville bleating on about the Glazers not fixing the roof at the swamp as if it was somehow to blame for the performances.

When will someone call out that Ten Hag has a squad valued (by them) in the hundreds of millions, he spends several hours a day with them on the training pitch and they are still awful. Several managers have come into the league since and completely changed the direction of their clubs, Villa and Spuds to name a couple.

The man is a no mark, who took a dominant Ajax team to yet another league title. What does that prove?

Ive stopped reminding people hes just a character.
An actor tapping in to the hordes of eed simpletons. Fair play, he seems to be doing well out of it but as you say, hes alan partridge and no one should take him overly serious

Taking him serious is what gets me through most Mondays.

 

[Blue Til Death]

The cold hard fact here is that one out of Ten Haag is not fit to manage at this level, he’s more out of his depth than his bottle job team .. He has not got a scooby how to play in the PL .. Long may he reign…!!

That was last season's tactic. Not sure what this season's is.

They had tactics last season? Fuck! I must have blinked and missed it.
