Not impossible I remember when LVG or whoever was in charge and the stadium wasn’t packed anymore. How can the majority of fans be happy?This is impossible, 'all fans' isn't an entity that can be controlled.

Just makes me laugh that they spent £110m on two players who won’t get near the first team and another two who might scrape their way in their for as much as they could have got Sancho for. Doesn’t really make sense.
Yeah you’re right, my sincere apologies, I totally ballsed that up! I may have included players wages and signing on fees.How have you added that up?

Humblings like we experienced on Sunday can have benefit. Ultimately if OGS is up to the job he will realise that despite fielding his supposed "best eleven" is way off and that the results in the later half of the previous season covered for a lack of cohesion and shortage in the leadership department. If he rolls out the same old plan again after the international break expecting it to just suddenly click and come good then we will have seen his limitations. he has the opportunity to step up to some of the big issues and deal with them rather than fawning to big transfer fee players who aren't earning their money.Sancho was far too much money in the current climate. I think United agreed and didn't think it was value for money. I don't think we will ever sign him honestly but I don't think that £110m is worth it currently. I also don't think he would magically solve our issues which is part of the reason I'm not bothered we didn't get him. We need a proper DM, we need to get rid of Pogba and sort out the manager.
6-1. vs Tottenham was embarrassing but the way we lost was the worst part. Utterly shambolic. It wasn't like Spurs even played well. They just went for the gaping holes we left everywhere in defence. We were outworked, out thought and our manager didn't change a damn thing at half time. The club is rotten at the moment. Transfers are not going to solve that on their own.
Totally agree with all of that. Ole leaving may come sooner if results and performances continue like the last few. I’d suggest Fernandes for captaincy as he already gets stuck in on giving orders and pointers to the team and actually shows a degree of passion.Snip

That means (in my book at least)
- dropping Pogba and reverting to a midfield that will work as hard as any opponents they face
- removing captaincy from Maguire
- giving wan Bissaka some real competition for his place (maybe Williams can get him to step up the way he encouraged Shaw)
- demanding every player comes of the pitch exhausted because they gave everything
United need to realise that they ain't special. When they were special it was built on an attitude and work ethic allied to some genuinely talented individuals who would run through walls for the manager. If they stopped doing it - he moved them on.
OGs started ok - he cleared out Lukaku, Sanchez and started to recruit to a plan. Lets see if he has what it takes to take it on a level. He has until Christmas I reckon

I think Maguire needs dropping but because he was 80m , any criticism seems to escape him? Funny isn’t it people lacking balls in football to make the decisions that will be beneficial
as for Pogba he should have been gone already , just a wasted space and pay cheque as it stands
@adam cool dude not sure about DDG, he made one too many mistakes for my liking last season. Like you said once players have peaked they need to be shipped. Was frustrating to see Romero rotting away and now he’s on the way out
UCL squad announced but Greenwood and Williams are on the B list?
guess they may be called in before the deadline, to replace the likes of Lingard and Ighalo
Not sure on reasoning
Ah thanks for explaining, I had clearly misunderstood.That's normal, it was the same last year.
The B list is for players that have been at the club at least 2 years and are born before a certain date. They can play as normal and players can be registered to the B list at any point up to 24 hours before a game or something.
