Hope its another 22 years for them like Liverpool. By then we will all be knee deep in melted polar ice caps so it will be all be irrelevant. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second in the league and a european cup final is pretty decent, even for Man Utd, compared to their last few years. Not great, not bad. Only reason they were in an European cup final is because they got eliminated in the group stages in the better European competition. Imo those rules are disgraceful. If you fail in one European competition you shouldn't get a another ticket in another one. You are eliminated you should be gone. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were melting down on Twitter over the few who didn't take off the medal. I can see both points of view. but and its a big but......those players landed them with the losers medals, no one elses fault. That club need to learn what coming second is like when you don't deserve first.....They are miffed at looking across the city and the success that Man City enjoy, but unlike Utd, City deserve it. They need to learn to be good losers, when they don't deserve to win.....They are an embarassment with that petulance IMO.

They are nowhere like the machine they used to be. It's easy to forget but they were unplayable at certain points under Fergie. A few bad signings and a bit of bad luck a outside the top four could happen more than them winning the league these days. I thought it was an absolute banker, they would struggle after Fergie......He instilled a winning mentality in to his teams, that is very hard to emulate. Arsenal under Wenger had very talented sides, particularly in his earlier days with them......but he couldn't instil that Fergie winning mentality. Man U performances since him, do not surprise me one iota. Edited May 28, 2021 by TRO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who gives a flying flamingo what their financial commitments are.....Who gave a toss, when we was flirting with extinction?....if they have geared themselves up to be so reliant on success, thats their look out. This is not a charity, you get what you deserve, and they deserve nothing. They have had years and years of hoovering up every clubs best players, particularly, when gates meant everything and their advantage was huge.....Now we rely on TV money and wealthy Billionaires....The platform has levelled. clubs in the top league are under less pressure to sell, and young stars see an clearer pathway to senior football than with Man U, where the competition can be immense. They have found it more than difficult to emulate the character of SAF and thus replicate the success....it takes years of recruiting the right characters and indoctrinating that winning mentality, its contagious, but takes time to grip a club. I am tired of listening to the size of the club and its grieving of the halcyon days, they have to earn it......and the rest of us are not going to send our best players to them, with a benevolent reluctance, like we did with Dwight Yorke and Ashley Young.....them days have gone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Apparently Man Utd won’t face any sort of punishment for their fans getting the Liverpool game cancelled as a result of their idiotic behaviour. Excellent example to set here. Maybe we should do the same next season if Grealish is injured or suspended for an important match. Farcical decision.

villalad21 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 If they sign Varane and Sancho they are starting to get a pretty damn solid team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I'd be surprised if Madrid let Varane go after already having lost ramos and that being a position where they don't have youngsters coming through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Maguire and Varane is a damn good paring and Sancho will join one of the most entertaining forward lines in Europe. Yes, it comes back to OGS - no PL trophy this year and he is gone. Done a good solid job turning it, shifting the garbage and building a entertaining side - but this is it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i still don't think he is good enough to win them a title. But if they sign these 2 players there zero excuses for no trophies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think their goalkeeper, defence or central midfield is that great to be honest. Varane improves it for sure, but there's a nice soft underbelly to Man Utd. The thing Solskjaer did well was make them more defensively solid than they should've been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
