You only have to watch there first game of the season to see what was incoming.
Look average against average side
Get battered when anyone half decent turns up
May fluke the odd game against the better clubs .........when it does happen the mass meltdown from the media proclaiming they are back and the cycle goes on.
The rebuilding progress should have started after the cup final but the deluded folk thought one win was the route to greatness ..............he is simply a poor manager living off the odd win against the better clubs

They are still buying duds.

How prophetic was Cantona with his seagulls analogy , shame he didn’t forecast the next 20 odd years of dross

Or how much will the scum spend till they eventually win the title again!? I'm going for 10 billion think they on around 1.6b now

That's a bit on the low side I think.
£100bn is my guess.

utd fans are waking up to reality today.

Yesterday they were full of optimism about how good they were but unlucky. After re-thinking the game, rewatching it on MOTD, seeing the reports and game stats they are seeing how shite they were.


I watched them on motd and they were a little more hard working, a little more organised, but the same issues of key players not being arsed is still there. Basic stuff. Never has "Thiis is utd" meant so little.

Or so much. :-)

Well done today.

We left the car at 1-1, just after their second disallowed goal, and the next I heard, you’d won.

A lovely, pleasant surprise.

Cheers.

Mainoo is a really good player it's a pity he turned us down and joined them lot as young academy player! If we were as bad as the scum have been last 10 years media be continually speculating on any young top quality player why it be best for them to leave and go somewhere they can win trophies! But if Mainoo wants to stay at the scum and never win a major trophy it's on him..

De Ligt looked like Phil Jones yesterday when Brighton scored their winner.

It’s not the Brighton side from recent years with progressive fast passing football. The style today seemed very industrial and slow. Perhaps you are right and it will improve but that’s a diabolical United side. You have taken them apart in recent meetings.

I think its to do with the players that are out, new manager thing. FH wants fast flowing football and he will have them, but our midfield was slow with Billy Gilmour he had a great game but suprised to see him play with the Napoli saga, dont think he fits FH style. Not getting above our place but we have played 2 poor teams so far.
I fear for us next week, but if we could get something out of the game and also help you lot out ill be happy.
Apart from you, Arsenal and Victims the rest is who we need to target for a possible top 6. I would have included Villa in that but CL football for them might be a bonus for us. We just need to up our game alot more than we are playing now, but i think it might come.
