Playing well and not getting points is a concern, but rather be playing well than badly.

Whatever happens, and I think we will scrape through, we are so much better off with Sherwood than Lambert. I reckon we would be rock bottom and nailed on relegated by now under Lambert.

There's more people moaning about people suggesting Klopp than there is people actually suggesting Klopp as the next Manager which shouldn't be hard because I haven't actually seen anyone suggest Klopp.

 

I think our next manager should be Klopp

 

What a stupid suggestion.

Lol

Last time I put a bet on was for Ancelotti and we ended up with McLeish, so my money is staying in my pocket. God knows who it will be.

Ha! Remember those heady days of confidence that Lerner had great plans for the club! It's been a nose dive ever since. It surely cannot be any worse?

Gruesome. Did anyone see anything today that suggests we will avoid relegation?

Whatever excuses that keep being levelled, Lambert has a terrible record, and the club has set new lows under his tenure. If he wins the next two, will that erase the terrible results, annual relegation battle and rubbish served up week on week over the past few years, no. It's time for a change.

£8m is the going rate for average PL midfielders. Look at the dross we bought looking for value (excl Westwood, but he has taken 3 years to get there)

We will get relegated this season

Chris Price

Saw Ian Ormonroyd score, I think it was at Old Trafford and it was a record crowd for the first division at 47K.

I know they don't count but also saw Eric Cantona play for Leeds and Ray Wilkins play for QPR at VP.

Pleased about this. Keep the good news coming please, we have momentum.

I wouldn't get too emotional about it, footballers are all the same (mercenary) and so are the clubs and most of us would look after ourselves. He's played a blinder - got himself into the shop window while he improves his earning ability (in 12 months time) at Man Utd's expense.

In fairness we need him more than he needs us. Who knows, it may have a happy ending but I think we have come up trumps too, and after all, we may be after bigger fish next summer?

In fairness, Management did sort a number deals early. The shelf clearing at other clubs only unfolds towards the end of the window, and with agents playing clubs off against each other its a difficult time to close out deals.

Let's not forget, and it may shock a few, but we are not the most attractive proposition in the PL and we are relatively constrained too. at least we seem to have a handle sensible finances as boring as that may be.

Better off without him if that's his attitude. Obviously doesn't yet realise he is a failure that's why he is being shown the door, could have re-established his reputation at a level better suited to his ability. He needs to adjust first, better off someone else having him on the rebound.

Not sure we'll pull this off.

FWIW, he had Man United's best pass rate percentage last year, and was ranked 18th overall in the division.

 

He tends to pass sideways, doesn't take chances.

He'll feel right at home then

If we sign Cleverly I will start to believe a takeover is on the cards.

I reckon the opposite - you wouldn't buy a new kitchen if you were in the process of selling your house.

Can only improve us. Who cares how much, it's Randy's money, rather risk 8mil on TC than the £5/6m we spunked out on Tonev et al who are now all loaned out because they were utter rubbish, or £1m on that Aquafresh fella.

 

You pretty much just trebled his transfer fee.

Troon, "et al" was a reference to [Tonev] Helenius and Luna. You can also add Sylla to failed risks.

Hopefully it will be a double bid for Welbeck, he's on his way too. That would really signal that Randy is "Re-energised".

3 shots on goal in our 3 games this season. Wow.

33% conversion sounds pretty good to me? Thinking positive..... ;-)

Didn't see it, any chance of an overview please? apart from everyone, who was shit?

Simply crazy, we turn a corner and still manage to shoot ourselves in the foot? Surely having a valuable player(s) locked into a contract is of benefit when selling the club? It will cost the same to employ a replacement but add to that the transfer fee? Utter madness.

ironic that we will probably offer him a new contract on reduced terms and he will tell us to do one

And who could blame him? I wonder if he will leave if Lerner goes?

Pleasing performance, but this says more about how shite we have become. Massively short on quality at the business end of the field, but look much more solid. Really in need of 2nr big money signings and our forwards to come back.

I am losing my fear thankfully, but he next 4/5 games will show us where we really are.
