Itsa that time again... Utd sack manager, players suddenly try, team wins next few months of games, back to normal. Normal!

Everyone expects them to start the winning tonight. I think there's a small chance they wont. Their Ten Hag contingent wont be arsed (They're gone), Rashford might try a bit more. Leicester might have a chance tonight, even at ot

Interesting Onana is dropped - unless he's injured?

Wow. We all knew that the gpc ran the media but this !!!!!
We have half joked on here that pundits are paid to say the full name of the club, especially Robbie Savage, but to be messaged, whilst doing live commentary on 2 other teams to stop being honest is a disgrace.
Why commentators have no sense of pride in their work is beyond belief. Unless money is involved of course.

I truly believe utd get royalties from every time pundits/media mention their full name.
Savage manage to get it in 3 times in 1 sentence the other week.
There can be no other explanation.
It just sounds forced and unnatural

Yeah, five PL titles to outdo our four all in two years.

I was meaning sacked with a pay off….

To be honest, if Anorim was any good he wouldn't be going to the rags.

It snacks of a guy who knows his stock is high at the moment and is trying to cash in.

If captain dildo turned him down at West Ham I’d rather listen to him than the complete fucking idiots at old Trafford as to what makes a good manager , he’s competing in a league that’s akin to the championship , the narrative is that City May have wanted him based on our new incoming DOF, it was only three months ago they extended ETH’s contract , after him spunking another £160m on complete horsehsite , West Ham told him to fuck off , let that sink in.

4 teams got a result against us at home that year. Liverpool, Spurs, Palace and Sporting. The second best side in the country, 2 of our bogey teams and Sporting. It's crazier to me that you think it should just be written off, and I'm 100% certain you'd not have said so last week.

I certainly would, any game where you're 5-0 up is a rubber duck to be used as a training exercise

 

[BerkshireBlue]

I honestly thought he was one of their best players. Surprised they were desperate to offload him

FFP, they had to sell a youth player

Probably not even during a rag game as well?

In between busby and the hard shoulder shitter they sacked managers for fun. Post GPC theyre going through coaches quicker.

I recall a convo with a silly billy red when GPC was in charge and we were sacking coaches aplenty, he came out with the immortal line, “well its not the united way to sack our coaches”

I replied that it was easy to fuckin say that when they had a generational manager who delivered trophies and bought he wished off whomever he wanted to

It was lost on the daft ****. Just mumbled “yernited way”

I was talking to a rag at work and told him that football managers were like relationships, it takes the length of the relationship to get over it, so a 5 year relationship takes 5 years for you to get over and move on. I went on to say you had 25 years of Busby and waited another 25 years until you get Fergie and so on. He paused for a moment and replied “that means we have 10 to 15 years of this rubbish?”. “Yep” I answered and I followed it with the obviously sarcastic lie :“it gives me no pleasure in saying that to you!”. He doesn’t talk to me much anymore!
