Tbh, it looks like that one win has helped destroy this season for them, which almost made it worth it…almost!

The worst part for them is this us going to result in yet another clear out, because I can’t see any top manager they could hoodwink into taking the job being willing to put up with this team!

Sir Ratface clearly has more money than sense!

Clear out?

Who's going to pay anything for

Mount
Maguire
Lindelof
Malacia
Bayindir
Casemiro
Eriksen
Antony
Shaw
Zirkzee
...etc

They're fucked! Can't sell anybody because nobody wants their shit and can't buy because they've got no money!

Fucking glorious!

Ineos buy Sky cycling team. UAE knock them off their perch.
Ineos buy the rags. A team with UAE connections squash them even further.
Smart chaps those Arabs.

Replacing someone who was a good mgr in the dutch league with a mgr who was average in the dutch league cos he played for you over a decage ago, the merry go round keeps spinning, and what will happen is theyll beat leicester cos horseface is different, theyll draw with chelski cos he hasnt had time with the players yet, theyll beat paok cos hes turning it around and theyll clammer to give it him for the romanticism of it and the idiots will make a bad decision AGAIN.

Same here. I think they’re desperate though. On the one hand, IIRC if they don’t make it into the CL again this season they lose a shit-ton of adidas money. On the other hand, I really think they’d one eye on a real relegation fight if they’d kept the clown.

10 million quid.
That's how much the Adidas contract will drop by.

But, it's not just the sponsorship money, 4 home games plus 1 qualifier (if they are lucky) Plus all the TV money they will miss out on.

Their next manager is going to relegate them

Fcuk yes

Its an absolute joy to watch this long stumble and fall from grace. An absolute, beam on the face, fuck right off rag cunts, joy.

 

[Elbow beards]

I can believe the cunts have spend over 1 billion since the piss can left. Fuck me!
When they said money can't buy success (about us) they were fucking right.

Who ever comes in is on a hiding to nothing with how impatient as a club and fan base they are. Agent Omar is telling the staff they want to win the league in three years time. They are probably furthest away they’ve been from that since Taggert packed it up, only Mourinho has broken the 80 points mark in that time. The new coach will be having to clear the decks of Ten Hags’ and Solksjaer’s signings with financial fair play looming over them. No wonder scruffy Jim is firing all the support staff and cost cutting. The new manager won’t be shopping at the top table for players as no one worth their salt wants to go there. Whoever takes it will have their work cut out.

I don't think they've got a chance of top 4, they're crap with or without ten hag. they're not 14th crap but not close to top 4 despite the most expensive squad in history. The ones in charge have to know that. They cannot be deluded enough to think they've got a top 4 squad and as much as I'd love to see them in a relegation fight, that's never going to happen.
