  1. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach

    Why criticize him? I don't think people realize how risky and dangerous it is to switch to a new philosophy, manager mid-season, without the proper squad to run that system, and then conduct open heart surgery on squad depth at the same time in the most competitive league in the world. INEOS...

  2. Mathys Tel | on his way to SPURS. He’s going to Spurs lads. SPURS

    They'd take a loan or loan buy guarantee. We only want loan with buy option. At best a compromise would be loan with forced buy if certain targets are met (goals/appearances). From our perspective we just hold pat. At this point why overpay for a player or develop a player for Bayern without...

  3. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach

    Think about the astronomical money we have spent and how little we have achieved in results and how flawed our squad is. Our options are to either continue that and challenge for top 4-5 or break it up and rebuild. Looks like we are rebuilding and while Amorim isn't gods gift to earth as a...

  4. Leny Yoro | 2024/25 Performances

    Young talent, decent so far. Maguire and Onana are clearly shambolic. If you put VVD with them they'll somehow make him look bad. Stop overreacting to 1 game, support your club and your young world class talent.

  5. Manchester United vs Crystal Palace

    With the foot, Achilles issue and now the knee. Yeah another Phil Jones, brutal for us.

  6. Rasmus Hojlund (Out)

    You know you can't just get rid of all your players right? Look at the idiotic moves we've made to get rid of good players who would have helped us: Garner Alvaro Elanga McTominay As long as the players are young, cheap, and on long term deals it's stupid to sell.

  7. The uncomfortable truth - United’s current finances.

    Or here's a crazy idea sell Maguire and keep your two strikers cause you can't seem to score goals?

  8. The uncomfortable truth - United’s current finances.

    Also the payment could have been spread out over years so you only see one portion of it.

  9. How bad is it, really? (Financial thread)

    You're incredibly naive if you believe that. This is a classic private equity investment move. You dilute existing value and try to milk the business even more at the cost of employees/consumers. All INEOS are doing is cutting costs to pay dividend, debt, and takeover costs all the while...

  10. The uncomfortable truth - United’s current finances.

    I'd make you our DOF. You have more sense than the morons in charge ruining our club.

  11. The uncomfortable truth - United’s current finances.

    There was a lawsuit from Qatar showing that their bid was backed by Qatar National Bank which has $300B. Given how much money the state was spending to try to get Messi, WC, you think they wouldn't froth at the opportunity? The funds were never the issue. If anyone thinks Glazers were ACTUALLY...

  12. VAR, Refs and Linesmen | General Discussion

    If we had owners that actually cared they'd submit an inquest like Liverpool did. Our owners just don't care.

  13. How bad is it, really? (Financial thread)

    Absolutely. But that was Glazers plan too. Nothing's changed same merry-go-round just more tightening on spend to offset the costs of INEOS hand in the pot.

  14. How bad is it, really? (Financial thread)

    You never will be able to. It's a continuous downgrade of your squad unless your academy somehow is one of the greatest academies on the planet in all of history all of a sudden (its not...). To correct financial issues you had 2 big options and then some minor options. We can see the route...

  15. Alejandro Garnacho (out) | Chelsea make enquiries

    Imagine not having enough forwards on your team to create and score goals, BUT then: Selling your CM/FW hybrid goalmachine (McT) for half their value so you can bolster your defense?!? Selling 2/3 best wingers to your rivals in consecutive seasons without replacing them (if Garnacho to Chelsea...
