Manchester United


Bought this today. Get's great reviews so Ilm hoping it's at the Damned United end of the David Peace spectrum and not the one on the other end about that weirdo Shankly.

Correct. Said it to my UTD supporting mates they are absolutely identical to Everton. I think next season will be even worse for them.
They're in much worse shape than us. We have a shiny, new stadium. Theirs is falling down around their ears, and one problem with all their income is lenders will extend far more credit than they ever did to us. Barcelona's finances are an even bigger mess, but the priceless asset called La Masia has kept them both afloat and lifting trophies. Every year United defers proper Old Trafford maintenance makes their costliest problem more expensive to cure.

The good news, if there is any, is most of their worst contracts come off the books next summer. Of course, then they have to replace all those minutes.

They're on a collision course with League One if one of the promoted sides next season can hack the Prem. We should be midtable if we can identify a few players with goal contribution this summer.
 

Preparations to jump ship?
I think the writing may just be on the wall. United brought in a system manager, but can't afford to remake the squad. What they need right now is someone who can eke out points with the overpriced pieces in the Lego box.

They need Carlo, but can they steal him from Brazil? I doubt it.

Carlo?

(and you've a double space as well, twice...1)

Imagine the hilarity if they got a specialist in to pick up the pieces, hand picked even...

If you're talking about double spacing after periods, I always do it. Much simpler to find and replace them all out, when writing for real, than retrain muscle memory. Not my fault the convention changed after I learned to type.

A certain human Scotch Egg lookalike, nail eating, hoofball merchant is available ?
 
I always say it about them.

And I'll say it now. The worst thing that can happen to United this season, is winning the Europa. They'll qualify for CL, and it'll totally paper over the cracks.

They need to completely tear it down. They are everton under Moshiri, on Steroids. Devoid of any character, loaded with big salaries and mercenaries and they're absolutely suffocating on their own success from
The Ferguson days.

Villa, Newcastle perfect examples of how you rebuild a squad quickly. But united are just controlled by turnover and the sponsors will never allow a rebuild.

Not upset. They and Liverpool have been keen to dismantle English Football for years now. So let them rot.

If you haven't seen this video:

It's a pretty decent breakdown of what’s going on at Man U at the moment.

Oh well, at least Onana is making the best of a sh.te situation by trying to improve himself 🤷‍♂️ :
