So being more direct is a bad thing
It's funny I remember the waffle being it was nothing but sideways passes
Eddie howe being on this list is a bit of a surprise
Ten Hag being on there with like 2.5 seasons for us
Ten Hag being on there with like 2.5 seasons for us
Yeah 600+ of that is us
F*** me man
Tuchel đ
He'd probably headbutt Jason Wilcox if he tried to tell him how to play football
Let's get him ASAP
Manchester United under the INEOSâSJR regime.
1. â They extend Erik ten Hagâs contract when he shouldâve been dismissed immediately after the FA Cup finalâonly to sack him three months later anyway.
2. â They then target a specialist managerâone defined by a rigid system, formation, and philosophyâfully aware that heâs stubborn about changing it⌠and beg him to take over mid-season.
3. â They appoint one of the better sporting directors in the country, Dan Ashworth, and when he advises against hiring Amorim (almost certainly because he could see the chaos coming), They sack him for âundermining authority.â A preview of how dissent will be handled going forward.
4. â In December, the coach openly tells you the squad is not suited to his system and that a storm is coming. Their response? One teenage signing from a relegation-level Serie A side.
5. â They finalize personal terms with Bryan Mbeumoâwho only wants Unitedâyet instead of closing the deal early for pre-season, they try to lowball Brentford. Other clubs then distort the market by paying premium fees for average players like Elanga and JoĂŁo Pedro. Rather than learning your lesson, they wait again, panic, and end up paying even more when Newcastle approach Wissa.
6. â The head coach asks for proven, experienced players like Watkins and MartĂnez. Instead, they give him âprospectsâ who need time to adapt. The midfield is crying out for a rebuild, but they choose to overhaul the entire frontline instead.
7. â They attempt to copy Chelseaâs âbuy everyone youngâ modelâdespite needing players nowâand then have no idea what to do with them. Talents like Sekou KonĂŠ and Diego LeĂłn are either stuck in youth teams or loaned not to the Championship or competitive European leagues, but to Lausanne-Sport⌠a Swiss club you already own. Farcical.
8. â When performances dip, Sir Jim Ratcliffe gives interviews preaching patience, giving Amorim 3 years âname-dropping Arteta and Klopp, talking about long-term projects, and lecturing journalists for knee jerk reactions and getting off on one.
9. â While the entire footballing world screams for midfield reinforcements, your priority target becomes Antoine Semenyoâa winger you plan to convert into a wing-back.
10. â You openly pursue Carlos Baleba in the summer and Semenyo in the winter, proving the money is there when you want it. Yet when half the squad is injured or away at AFCON, you choose not to sign anyone.
11. â The team sits 6th, showing clear structural improvement but struggling with inconsistency. Instead of backing the coach with one or two stabilizing signings that could help massively pushing for 5thâyou cave to the media noise from Neville, Scholes, and Carragher and tell the coach to change his system. The same coach who had been crystal clear that he wouldnât.
12. â A manager hired specifically to impose a specialist identityâbecause âUnited have no identityââis then under-backed and undermined. Eventually, Amorim snaps, baits the board in a press conference, and gets sacked with a hefty payoff.
13. â Which brings us back to point 8: the board manages to do the exact opposite of everything it publicly preachedâexposing itself as completely Clueless.
14. â EDIT : Increase in ticket prices
So being more direct is a bad thing
It's funny I remember the waffle being it was nothing but sideways passes
Next time United win more than they lose
KOP: âSo suffering is a bad thing?â

Recruitment in this sense ended up better imo. Sesko & lammons >> watkins nd emi
But u cooked overall
I donât have an issue with them buying youth team prospects to potentially loan out either. especially since the fees are usually ~ÂŁ1m
We already landed an outlier gem in Heaven from this strategy
Next time United win more than they lose

I'll be f***ing delighted the next time that comes

Fills you with confidence doesn't it. Jesus
Not to be a conspiracy guy but since this whole caretaker saga started, I havenât seen one United fan mention the January window. Canât help but wonder if thatâs part of the reason why itâs being dragged out.

If they were really that savvy they would put it to good use and make us a better club
