Ragnick recognised it. It's a broken squad and needs to be dismantled. We can run through as many managers as possible but until we do what needs to be done, this will continue.
I don't even think it is a question of talent. I think it is psychological. They are not fit to play.
 
Yeah, most of these players need binning off. We won't get anywhere with them, their mentality is terrible.
 
Yeah at this point it's not even about quality anymore. It's a mentally broken team that's not going to recover.
 
It's what happens when you allow United to get battered regularly culminating in a 5-0 embarrassment at home to Liverpool and no one has to answer for it.
 
I understand that ETH needs time. But really, just we should just tell him that our goal is top 12, play some kids, and stop using these cowards.
 
The likes of Shaw, Maguire, De Gea, Rashford, Dalot, Wan Bissaka and so and so on should have been moved on the minute it was clear that they either weren't good enough or started to decline. FFS we talked about De Gea showing signs of decline, what, 4 years ago or so? We have done nothing to challenge him ever since.
 
You just can't keep failing for that many years without any effect.

Players like Shaw, De Gea, Rashford, Maguire and Fred from just today's lineup have seen way too many batterings over the years.
 
I have the membership stuff waiting for me at the post office. I am just not going to get it and have it sent back. Thanks to Brexit they want to charge me €15 import tax so they can get fecked anyways.
 
It’s what happens when you keep giving players exceeding wages and new contracts with huge pay rises when they’ve done feck all! They accept that they’re a Man Utd player by right.

It’s pathetic and we need a culling!

The club is broken. This is way more than the playing personnel.
 
Nothing changes because we move players on and bring players in too slowly, it allows the rot to keep setting back in. Squad needs a massive overhaul in one go. Won't happen though because the club is broken
 
We need 3 top class players between now and the end of the transfer window and even then we'll probably still finish 6th.

Squad is so poor. A genuine mid table squad.

Agreed. It's all our chickens or pigeons or whatever coming home to roost at once. 4-0 at HT is one of those pro ev scores when you're playing your mate that last played fifa 2014.
 
Thing is, it's like a disease. You can't gradually introduce players and expect it to change. Everyone who comes in gets infected by it. You need to totally purge the squad and start fresh. I mean total change. 11 fresh players and youngsters as the backup. They don't have to be world beaters, just solid pro's who have ambition to develop and eventually challenge for things.

We could probably buy that whole Brentford team if we wanted to. It's drastic but not impossible.
 
They got second place two seasons a go don’t you know :)

It’s over for half these players. I just hoped we might have made that realisation last season but we didn’t.

Yep, I know he's not the same player as five years ago but the fact Ronaldo looks broken is incredibly telling.
 
Ralf was 100% correct. And this team needs to be dismantled by the club as soon as possible. This season should be a write-off and we need to go with youth and younger players and build for the long-term. We have been chasing our losses for too long, bad decision follows every bad decision when it's all gone to shit.
 
It was known that only two or three players were worth keeping. What’s really bumming me out is that we now need to get rid of the summer signings too.

I agree but we have wrote off a lot of seasons and done nothing productive with it.
 
Can’t help but feel that ETH should have a closer relationship with Rangnick at the beginning of the season. Rangnick was right with everything he said about United. The events at Brentford had shown a squad and club broken from top to bottom.
 
The Pep Guardiola is my idol chose to give them all a new start.

Everyone knew what these players are like and their ability

It's not their fault if you decide not to sell them opportunity after opportunity
 
I guarantee that behind all of their upcoming shite social media posts, most of the existing players from last season genuinely won't care about today, they didn't care about last week, and because of this, this sort of shit will keep happening. They are completely checked out, back to square one after whatever brief moment of positivity they experienced in pre-season.

Rashford, Shaw, Maguire, Dalot, Fernandes(and more not starting today) all need to be out of the team and never back in it, I genuinely don't care if we replace them with worse players, they just need to be fresh mentally.

Wasn't last season a write off?
 
We need to do what Juventus did around 10 years ago when they signed around 20 new players in one transfer period that cost them around what we pay for 3 players.

You simply can't move on with the likes of Shaw, de Gea, Fred, Bissaka, Mctominay, Maguire, etc. - players with obvious loser mentality.
 
First of all, every player that doesn't wanna be here should have their contracts terminated. Then we can start looking at who is good enough to be part of the team and who needs to be moved on.
These players who doesn't wanna be here and those who constantly are considering their options, needs to feck off. They are nothing but toxic persons and that toxicity is spreading in the dressing room.
 
Not just the squad, the entire club is broken. There is no idea on how to run a football club.
 
Gonna be a hell of a briefing campaign in the press next week though. I can't wait to hear about all the players that the club is thinking about maybe possibly signing!
 
tbh based on the grand total of 2 games Eriksen and Martinez deserve to be put in the bin with the rest of them
