'It's a disaster' does probably imply that some more specific information was given but obviously we don't know. Coupled with the media stories about some of the players disliking the coaching set up ("Ted Lasso") and also there was that controversy over Lingard and Ralf each saying a different things as to why Jessie wasn't available a month or so back and it's not a good look for Jessie as the supposed 'leaker'...
We've all been fooled.There's no agenda mate. You say he didn't criticize Ole. Look at his post match reaction after our home win against Atalanta in the CL before the Liverpool game. Even though we won he was adamant we were poor and would get pummeled against Pool. He was calling it as it is. The thing is barring the last few weeks, it never became this toxic under Ole. The last few months, I think ever since the Watford game have been an absolute shit show from both the manager and players so no wonder the ex players are calling it out. The players are rubbish and need to be culled but the way Ralf has gone about it, this is not how you manage a club and Scholes is absolutely right in calling him out along with the players.
Of course. But at least I don't go criticizing genuine legends of the club for speaking the truth.
Signing ETH and allowing some of the contracts to expire is kind of sorting it though. So they are addressing it. Makes the whole thing look farcical though.
I already said barring the last few weeks under Ole and this was in that period. Under Ralf it's been this way at least since the Watford game, with that Ronaldo hat trick against Spurs lifting spirits briefly.
He says it. That doesn't mean that he is right. It is his opinion/reading of that situation.
Fair point. I’d not give it too much air. Click bait
what cant? All you heard is Rashford this/Rashford that since Ralf came. Neville publicly warned them to cut out the leaks, they persisted so he called them out on twitter. Even Ralf called his PR/family out in a presser
Shameful by Scholes, yes
probably 300 managers been sacked in the prem that were swimming in 'sacking money' classic united fan victim mentality that we feel it shouldn't be legal for ole to get it
Did really well at West Gammon on loan. Played some good games for England too. He’s got the talent, just needs the right manager to get the best.
Woodward wouldn't let him leave.
Doesn't it occur to you that maybe he felt Ole was the man for the job and so felt should be given more time? Maybe he didn't feel the same about others. A pundit's job is to call things as they see them. Their word isn't gospel and shouldn't be treated as such. They will be wrong at times just like all of us.
Did he?
True! He might be a bit of an immature tit, but the way he’s assumed to be a Bad Apple is ridiculous. He still needs to bear in mind that, sadly, when he talks to Scholesy he’s talking to someone in the pay of the tabloid media.
Its not about speaking the truth. Its about telling the whole world what one player said to you in private. Legend or not he shouldnt be absolved of criticism. Especially when he does something like this or when he's a hypocrite about which manager he is criticizing and which not.
That's the big takeaway for me. Starting to become obvious why some of these players think so highly of themselves - they've got these ex-player pundits pandering to them in the background as well.
