trying to polish turds

Shit coach.

Nobody cares what you did in the Erivididllydoo.

Hope this bald frau stays.

Firenze: We need to get rid of McTonnimay, he has no business playing DM for United

ETH plays Eriksen there instead

Firenze: ...Not like this!

Eriksen hasn't got the legs to play AM anymore. Was a pointless signing anyway.

Eriksen a solid, cheap, bench option. Shouldn't be a starter, but probably got guarantees he would be.

Rabiot also a scrub yeah

desperation signing

Jibers where the F are you.

WTH is going on @ manutd? And why was Erikson played as a dm? A tactical decision that I'm failing to comprehend.

Jibes or Firenze, wtf is ten Häagen-Dazs is doing?

Eriksen played deep for Conte iirc.

Also he’s playing DM because he’s better at progressing the ball than McFred.

Btw these results are absolutely deserved. Rangnick said United needed 10 new players. Ten Haag came in and said that wasn’t the case arguing they finished 2nd two seasons before, so there’s a good team in there. Their disagreement on the squad is why Rangnick left and didn’t stay as consultant.

Now he’s reaping the fruits of his arrogance.

This guy makes moyes’ United look like prime pep Barca compared to this current united team.

Expecting this when the window closes

If Eriksen is used well by ten Hoe then it should be huge for United.

CR is most likely staying so that too can be an asset given Cristiano loves to use visionary passers like Eriksen. Beyond that there is not a single special thing in the squad bar maybe Martial who's just too inconsistent.

So Bruno Fernandesh is finally a GL certified fraud ?

ahem

take #11


I can see it being Fred or Eriksen next to Casemiro I guess, doubt we try to chase FDJ after Casemiro, but it seems we are determined to get Antony

we still need a RB ffs

Cody Gapko is I think we will end up getting not Antony. There is Malo Gusto rumours. Hope they are true. But I can see Lyon taking us to the cleaners. More likely will end up with Denst. Also there's a player United couldnt cough up 5 mil 2 years ago, and who went on to sign for Brighton, called Moises Caicedo, there are rumours we are willing to pay 60+ mil for him now. But Brighton are demanding 100mil  Such pathetic transfer planning and strategy. The worst in the league easily.
Anyway, would be delighted with Casemiro, ofc.

Manchester United, have no reached no excuse territory in winning the EPL.

Anything less will be a catastrophic failure.

ETH aint even sacked yet and tuchel already rejected them

EXCL: Thomas Tuchel NOT planning to take Man United job, he wants to take a break not coaching any club this summer.

Tuchel currently decided not to continue in talks with United after meeting in the recent weeks.

I don't think Ten Hag is a bad coach. I think he's a good coach, but I think his stint has shown a few lessons.

1- Coaches shouldn't be responsible for transfers. They can give their input on what their team needs, and maybe help contribute to drafting up a shortlist, but the truth is they don't actually have the time to analyze their targets. That's why Ten Hag was going for players he already knew because it was easier to teach them the system. His profiling sucked. I don't understand why he thought Mount should be the alternative if he couldn't get FDJ. Like they are completely different players.

2- At the top level identity matters. United brought him into play the Ajax way while keeping some United traditions alive (fast transitions when possible). Ten Hag turned to Ole/Mourinho every time he had a few injuries. I know being stubborn with your ideals isn't always a good thing, but I thought Ten Hag was too adaptable sometimes. I think if he had stuck with more proactive football even with the injuries he'd have more goodwill. I can't imagine them doing worse results wise. I also think if your team has a lot of injuries, you can't just blame the injuries, but have to take a look at the medical staff and fitness practices being underdone.

3- If Madrid want to offload any of their stars after they turn 30 don't take them. Perez is the best president in the world. If he isn't willing to fight to keep a player, chances are their best days are behind them or they're injury prone lmao.

I don't think that was the case at United. There was turnover when Woodward left, which led to Ten Hag having more sway than typical. Tuchel also had more sway when it came to making transfers after winning the CL and Chelsea's signings that summer haven't turned out that well.

I agree that at the vast majority of top clubs it is what you say. But not sure that was the case at United entirely.

Ornstein and others saying he's officially staying and negotiating a contract extension

wheeeew..

This is so funny lol

They basically be saying "We couldn't find anyone better so you can stay...I guess.."
