The glorious demise of Manchester United

[Flaggers]

Have we got a thread for this magnificent thing?

I'm sure we did and I can't find it.
Please bump if you know where it is and I'll merge.

Anyway.

TenHag is doing a fantastic job - he's got ManU playing as a group of 11 unlikeable individuals who mostly don't like each other either.

With the shunning of Sancho it seems he's lost the dressing room too.

The owners are tossers and the fans are demonstrating their entitlement sooo much.

Also they're 2 none down at "The Theatre of Dreams"*

*Whichever pretentious c**t came up with that godawful slogan a few years ago wants a rusty wire brush ramming up his arse. Sideways.

Glorious!

Certainly makes the resurgence of Liverpool easier to swallow.

I was worried United might get a grip when they appointed Ten Hag... Little did I know!

 

[Strummer]

I don’t know what’s funnier; that they’ve been turned into an absolute shower on the pitch, whilst being bent-over off it by their American owners, who continue to pillage millions of pounds in dividends out of them every year….

…or that Alex Ferguson has to watch it happening in real time.

They are a team without an identity or a coherent way of playing, and they look completely bereft of organisation, strategy or tactics.

As Michael Dawson once said:

„Love to see this!“

I am watching this through a streaming head cold, but I couldn't care less because United being crap is just brilliant to see.

I guess they are concentrating on the league for a while! 0-3 in successive home games!

 

[HBB]

3-0 the Toon ... tee heee.... chuckle..... hahhahahhah......

 

[Flaggers]

THOUSANDS of empty seats well before full time

I'm staying tuned just to soak up the doubtless deafening chorus of BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOs at full time.

Is there a sweeter sound in all football?

 

[DanR]

The supporters can't even stay until the end to boo them off properly. Bunch of plastics.

 

[YellowBelly Red]

And don'f forget Steve Mclaren is on the coaching staff!

I wonder if he talks to ETH in that stupid dutch accent?

 

[JohhnyM]

Love that they’re shit, but us not getting something there this season whilst reading all the stats about just how shit they’ve been leaves a sour taste. f***ing VAR.

Definitely the Americans bleeding them dry and ruling by accountant's spreadsheet, they're ensuring that every manager who goes there will fail and have his reputation destroyed .

Someone asked the question on 5 live recently Can you name a player who's joined Manchester United in the last 10 years who's left the club a better player? No one could supply an answer.

Well, that's kind of what VAR was designed for but the irony was not lost on me with the penalty award at OT versus ManCity at the weekend - VAR is DEFINITELY there to aid the big team at Old Trafford

 

[Gyros Peter]

Enjoying watching Elanga out-stat the 100m (euros I think) Anthony, who's return so far this season has been zilch!

Ten Hag has done so badly in the market - unbelievable really.

They went to pot when fergie finished

 

[Timothy Pope]

They went to pot when fergie finished

Aye. And Fergie has revelled in it. I’m convinced he sabotaged the club before Moyes took over by neglecting to upgrade the squad.

While that may be true Ten Hag has spent a fortune doing the same thing.

 

[duncanmckenzie]

Actually in hindsight Moyes didn't do too badly compared to some of the awful managers they've had. Isn't it wonderful?

 

[Redemption]

Schteve still goes unnoticed in the Manchambles

 

[PynchonForest]

I'm quite convinced the Glazers are the prime culprits in this slide. But it's certainly joyous to watch. This constant "Manchester will always be red" shit that you keep hearing is pathetic.

I can't think of any manager who want to take over right now, other than to filtch as much coin as he could from said filthy Glazers when getting sacked. I honestly hope the Glazers never sell the majority of their shares.

Schteve still goes unnoticed in the Manchambles

Schteeve is a lower profile version of Harry Redknapp. Everywhere he goes ends up in meltdown. Just like most of the players, he is grifting a living from Man U.
