could have secured an EL spot and be playing some entertaining, solid football. Instead, we are likely going to finish 7th, will not be in the EL next season, and the football has been really poor. EL football is worth about $25 million to most clubs.

I am very unimpressed with your management of the club thus far.

So if we spent £10m to fire him, paid a few million at least to another manager (As unemployed managers midway through a season probably aren't of the calibre required) De Zerbi is said to be around £10m for example then we could play entertaining football (Even though our injuries don't allow us to field a consistent XI or even defense) and we could finish 6th as you predict we will now finish 7th but we have every chance of still finishing 6th?

Nonsense.

Spot on mate, they've been an absolute disaster. From start to finish. To quote United legend Marcus Rashford 'Enough is enough'.

This is a worse take than your tagline.

Look at our results the past 5 weeks. We could easily have 6 or 7 more points and be in 5th or tied. $25 mil - 10 - 10 = profit.

How is it every one of our opponents plays decent football and we don't? That's not just because of injuries.

If we had a decent interim manager the last 5 weeks, we definitely might have done much better. Or a bit better. Or about the same. Or a bit worse. Or a lot worse. Certainly one of those things. Or something else. Definitively.

I'm not sure why I have that tagline. I don't remember ever being a huge fan of Pereira and forum added it sometime last year.

If they hired someone decent at buying lottery tickets we could have bought entire new squad already.

Ever hear of a new manager bounce?

I'm not anti Scottish, I just wanted Moyes out.

Only for Brighton to sign EtH and end up above United next season!

If we wait 3-4 years and back ETH, we will be back challenging for top 4. Just be patient.

Both. They're allowed to stay and build us a new state-of-the-art stadium with their own money. But they aren't allowed to attend or make any decisions as a punishment for costing us CL football by not sacking Ten Hag quickly enough.

That strategy did work so well under Ralf to be fair to the poster. Remember that first 45 minutes against Palace, the players actually broke into a sprint at times. Who cares about the following 5 months of shite.

Don’t think it’s fair to judge them this early. They probably want a fresh in the summer rather than messing around trying to find an interim. Although and interim could have give us a boost and helped us win a cup. We’ll see what happens in the summer.

The only reason ETH should have been sacked before the end of the season is so that we aren’t once again the cnuts that have to sack their manager after potentially winning an FA Cup.

100% agreed and I think we could have got CL even. But no point crying over split milk.

I just wish they got an interim for the FA cup final.

Absolute state of this.

Patience is needed and people need to realise this quickly.

INEOS are sorting out upstairs before they get anywhere near the manager or the playing field - let them work ffs.
