Just thinking about the managers they hired since baconface.

They hired Moyes, presumably on the grounds that he was Scottish, like baconface. That didn't work.
They then decided it wasn't being Scottish that was the key, but being a serial winner. So they hired Mourinho then van Gaal. That didn't work.
They then decided they needed someone with the 'united DNA' so they hired Solskjaer. That didn't work.

Having decided that hiring someone with similar qualities to baconface probably wasn't a great strategy, they looked around and decided that Klopp had done a great job in turning Liverpool's fortunes around so they hired Rangnick, the man who invented the 'gegenpressing' style that Klopp aodopted. That didn't work.

Finally, they decided that the only solution was to hire someone like Pep, so they hired Ten Bob, who not only worked under Pep but was also bald. That doesn't seem to be working so what the fuck are they going to do next, as it looks like they've run out of ideas?

They need a steady hand, long term manager. Southgate would be the sensible choice.
 
It's been a good 24 hours for the rags, Onana hasn't fucked up, no girlfriends got beat up, they didn't lose so all in all........ oh wait.
We won 3-1 away. We top our group and we top our group after 2 wins out of two.
It's been a shit 24 hours for the rags.
 
I see some idiot Utd fans are calling for retaliation after the Turkish fans tore down one of their daft banners at the swamp. Good luck with the idea of trying to do that at Galatasary. I seem to remember that it didn’t end well for the ‘we do what we want’ rabble the last time they tried to take the piss with the locals and police in Istanbul.

Stopping 650 million of them is too much even for the Turkish police to handle ;)

I don't blame Galatasary for taking it, I mean the 'Theatre Of Dreams' banner was very apt for the Turkish fans and a perfect reminder of their visit to Trafford.
 
Think the penny's beginning to drop with some rags believing they need to fall further before they are able to move forward, just how far that is remains to be seen, it's a shambles from top to bottom, reports coming out now questioning the mental strength of players, they don't like being shouted at.
Got £10 on them being relegated, pays out £2,500, don't think they will but I'm always looking at the cash out, easy money.
Big game against Brentford coming up, have they got the bottle. Come on you bee's.

Unfortunately the powers that be wouldn't let them get relegated.

They could end up like us lot under Swales, he came in when City were still a force in the English game. Stupid decisions and wrong manager appointments saw City start to creak into relegation battles. The way they piss away big money on players trying to keep up with the neighbours is reminiscent of what City were like back in the day. Suppose the thing they have that City didn’t have back then is their brand which still attracts lemmings wanting to spend money in the souvenir shops, and sponsors still wanting to be associated with them.

They still cling onto the thing that makes them think they are so great is this so called brand. It gave them a head start on everyone else in the 90s. Thing is every other club has chipped away at that and caught them up. They don’t have any other ideas to steal a march on the rest of the top 6 premier league clubs.
 
The one thing that isn't at fault at "ThisisManchesterUnited TM" is player investment - yet that is the one thing they constantly bang on about. Surely they're not saying FFP shouldn't apply to them, especially given how sanctimonious they've been about us.
