Seriously, spent a shitload of money on players like Van De Beek, Sancho, Dalot, Matic, Telles, Bailly and Diallo over the last few years who never play. Lingard barely starts despite his good form. Underutilises Cavani. Probably right for some of them but when you're struggling, odd that he's so wed to his (dreadful) double pivot and until yesterday, hadn't had another idea to utilise some of those you've spent big on. Fred and McTominay sitting at home to Villa and Everton. Can do much better than that, surely?

They could be better, absolutely. But there's a reason those who are more closely connected to the club are not comfortable going all-out attack on him, which was your original point, and it's not because they're his 'mates'. They know there are much bigger problems at the club than the team the manager is picking and they know bringing another manager in, which they probably need to do at this point, is not going to solve nearly as much as people think.

I don't expect them to attack him. They're just not critical of him at all. The difference in the way they talk about others, like Arteta, is obvious. United's problems are clearly bigger than the manager but he is still A problem.

Mr_Danger Posted November 1, 2021 Posted November 1, 2021 I think it’s time for Brendan Rodgers to fulfil his destiny and become the Spurs manager. He’s always been Spursy as fuck. They must have a half decent replacement lined up.

I can't believe Italian Bryan Ferry is ready to join, if the rumours are anything to go by. He turned them down in the summer, and after a disastrous start for them, he's in? Very jealous if it happens, although him inevitably calling Levy a stronzo and fighting with everyone on the board will be entertaining. Yet another decent manager that will have passed United by when the opportunity was there for them.

I assumed that Brendan Rodgers was a shoe-in for that job when Ole finally goes? He's been knocking back clubs for a while, biding his time, no?
