Wonder how Neville will spin this one out ????
The 4-4 against Bournemouth and the 4-1 beating of Wolves had them getting all giddy about how exciting it was.
The 1-0 win aluded to that they where solid

And now a 1-1 draw against easily one of the poorest sides in PL history so whats the angle on this one.

They have a odd few game spell where they look OK before the real United return

Even the games they've won against Wolves & Newcastle, they were crap

There is literally no-one in their squad yesterday that you’d want at City, other than (some say) Fernandes.

But in reality (for the some) we’d not be signing a 31 year old playmaker ever anyway.

The only reason would be to replicate the typical United tactic of the 90’s/00’s - sign the best players from your rivals, to weaken them - berbatov, cantona, tevez, wio, vds, carrick et al

Why would you want sign him because he doesnt work off the ball & can he break down a 10 man low block as Ive only ever seen him perform in a counter attacking team

The rags are not our rivals.

You invest in stuff, in the hope/knowledge that it will increase in value.

Scruffy investment has just pushed the (known) debt up to 1b.
The stadium is a death trap, on (steep drop offs to concrete/advertising) and off the field (leaking, concrete rot, rats, scaffolding). With no signs of investment other than another massive public handout request.
The players baring Fernandes and anyone chucked in at the deepend from the poor academy, are just going through the motions picking up a massive wage.
The academy shows for the 33rd year in a row no sign of producing a singular player of a level equal to one of the ‘92, other than in the media (Rashford, januzaj, Mainoo et al).

I really can’t see how investing in United is in anyway a way to increase your money.
Any investment can only be either vanity or rank stupidity.

Cheers Ferguson/RofG, what a marvellous thing you did, and no-one realised it, at the time!

I don’t know which would be the worst place to invest your money in football - the rags or their bastard offspring up in Moston! Both utterly skint and an irrelevance
