In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) review both the Everton and Bodø/Glimt victories at Old Trafford. Listen to the guys discuss 2 wins and 7 goals in the last week, analyse of the Amorim formation, focus on Amad and how he is playing, and also take a look at Hojlund, Rashford & Zirkzee – who starts v Arsenal?
The circles aren't really necessary.
They won the Treble, one of the great sporting achievements, and, outside of the media desperately ramming the success down our throats, no one really cared.
Every now and again I actually need to remind myself that they actually won it.
It's so easily forgettable.
Right? The Utd treble stank in the throats of everyone for years. Meanwhile most ordinary football fans don't even have a picture in their heads of whoever was the City captain lifting the CL.
Truth is, the media really didn't, not like if Arsenal, Liverpool or us won it. The traction it got was minimal. The ripple of City winning it was laughable. Liverpool winnng the CL in 2019 was treated way bigger for example.
City right now don't have the pull for a huge amount of fuss from the media. Even the fact they're in court for cheating still isn't spoken about that much.
For me it just goes to reiterate how special Fergie was.
Cheating City and Pep built a great team and have run it into the ground. The stars of yesteryear look burned out, while ignored fresh young blood has moved for game time and are flourishing elsewhere. Guys like Palmer, Delap, Harwood-Bellis, Lavia, Olise and Brahim Diaz are players Fergie would’ve kept at the club because they knew there was a pathway. He’d have introduced them to teams even as he competed for and won titles.
That ability to take risks on youth, kept things fresh and allowed him to continually rebuild teams. Pep, for all his money and cheating, will never have that said about him.

zero zero zero?
Maybe I deserve to be sacked. The hierarchy, can you hire a new victim. Please! Please! Let me out! Mamma!!
It’s actually incredible how insecure they’re all being. Having to constantly mention trophies and almost try and convince themselves
