As the world's biggest and richest club, Manchester United reach a global fanbase.

Part of the attraction for fans around the world has been the football luminaries, such as George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton, who have graced the Old Trafford turf in a Manchester United shirt over the years.

Recently, Manchester United have continued to attract or develop some of the game's biggest names, with England stalwarts such as Paul Scholes and David Beckham having been regular fixtures in the Reds line-up.

The Manchester United team, past and present, reads like a who's who of world football.

It is only fitting that a great team should grace a great stadium. And with Old Trafford's recent development and the closure of Wembley, the ground is easily the largest in English football, holding in excess of 60,000 fans.

Despite this capacity, the demand to see United in action is so great that tickets are hard to come by.

But it isn't only Manchester United fans who flock to Old Trafford. The standard of the ground is such that it regularly hosts high-profile games, most notably, the Champions League Final and Great Britain rugby league games.

Rock fans have also made use of the Reds's facilities, watching a number of high-profile acts at the ground.

But it's football that will forever be synonymous with the Reds famous ground - and with good reason.

The last decade has seen Manchester United under the shrewd leadership of Sir Alex Ferguson maintain a virtual stranglehold on the Premiership crown.

Manchester United has won the league no fewer than 18 times in their history. They are also Cup Kings too, winning the FA cup 11 times, the league cup 4 times, as well as winning the European Super Cup, European Cup Winner's Cup, and 3 times being crowned European Cup champions.

Manchester United has long become a name associated with success both on and off the pitch.

As club profits continue to grow, Manchester United have become one of the richest sports clubs on the planet.

With supporters club branches on every continent, it's hard to go any where in the world and not see somebody wearing the famous red shirt of Manchester United.

The diff between Matic and McTom playing dm position, he just know when and where to appear, too bad his age doesn’t allow him to play full match week in week out

The price to pay buying relics

Well said. Sad that matic can only last 60 max. After that he will be too slow.
But he is still faster than maguire even after 60

Look at how maguire slows thing up so much and misplace passes

Thanks kaptain, we are trailing again

Goal

Kena

Fridge score 😮

Who else

has to be our captain.. just had to be him.

Matic lost the ball

Topkek captain

80mil worth of mistaken purchase

Start bright, blund final third, bommm self destruct and went trailing

Keep repeating

He was sandwich by opponents…


Bruno’s over the mars passes start appearing after we were a goal behind

This post has been edited by beck_ken: Apr 9 2022, 08:07 PM

Bissaka + sancho really not producing anything

Mykolenko rules

the team ball movement n passing are so terrible.....
really wonder what they doing in training.....
like totally no idea what to do with/without the ball.....

ahahhaha yes
back to long ball mode

Nowadays astro go cacat. Recorded, press a bit to skip introduction, end up auto jump to 41 min pulak.

See 0-1. Nothing i missed.

See ddg reaction after goal. Lol

back to Ole ball.. sell these players, why giving new contracts.. they are easily replaceable..

As I said again and again, if Captain still captain, stop talking about rebuilding.

Saw this and I’m speechless. Really can not understand what is he thinking?

this season is way gone

3 creative midfielders on the pitch now. Bruno, pogba and mata. If still without a goal or shot on target, whole team has to be sold maybe. Might as well play the youth team.

Captain's pass again.

Man Utd as if they always train alone, play every weekend for other team. It’s absolute shocking

Problem is the 3 creative midfielders are behind the ball with only the forwards ahead of them. No runners.
Defence sitting back for safety not contributing to attacking pressure.

Mata is like coming on to teach these players how to play football...

Kaptain waited someone to be infront of him to take a shot. So kind. I think he gonna be all smile and hugs at full time.

Ole football replace with gengenpressing football...great "improvement" indeed..LOL

Bruno lack calm. He cannot be our lead attacker..

from bad to worse

Heavy metal football. Lol. Cakap aje. Lampard lose to everyone but beat us comfortably.

Top 4 chance already over with 1 month to go. This is a new low.

nice.....
give a wake up call to the board.....
the current squad is just a joke no matter who is the manager.....
there are no "team" at all.....

I don't know what the renewed contract is for.

Elehhhhh..last time all fans desperate to see club sign him and sancho...they havent learned anything at all from the previous big name signings..lol

that is not gegenpressing, RR already abandon his gegenpressing, we need to admit that to become great again, all players and coach need to be remove
go fck with DNA united, stop signing overated english players, stop using man utd ex players as a coach

shameful performances
they should be sacked/released

Ok la… lost 1-0, not 4-0

Just play mata for the next few matches. At least he is guilding the youngster., Not like those mindless attackers

Maguire... Really is he having a very bad luck year?

This post has been edited by hocksoo: Apr 9 2022, 09:29 PM

Most probably Ten Hag is seriously consider not to take the job now.

I miss maguire weekly apology

Bruno not a big name signing..

Do ok at United, u will be in the RM and Bayern radar.. why not?

Should remain with carrick as interim
Oh well

By just watching, I can feel very annoyed for Telles.. getting schooled and moaned by Bruno every time.. even when this "New Cantona" pass straight to opponents leg also can moan to him..

Imagine how the guys feel.. how the hell can he keep his cool? respect.. won 2 league titles back in Portugal against this loser, now this loser schooling him at United..

Bruno is not effective anymore under RR tactics. I doubt he will under ETH. Ole build the team around Bruno and let him focus on attack only. In a team play, he is useless.

They really need to give ETH 100% if they want to change... Otherwise just get Poch.

I skipped the match, anyone can answer whether the goal was maguire 's fault?

The revised VAR rule resulting in lack of penalties doesnt help him look effective anymore..
Now his lack of positional discipline, bad decision making and 'spam the ball up n hope for the best' is more visible since he's not scoring anymore..

when the hell is he gonna cut this outside foot pass out? just because it went good against Young Boys, now he doing it every game with awful outcome..

short answer: Maybe

Long answer : Yes

i hate maguire but i dont think that was maguire fault
bad luck follow him after greece case

diswan is Gungan pressing already:

Jus saw the replay of the goal, i would say yes

think BF and PP have high turnovers
pep or klopp would rage it they have layers wasting balls like this

Reason for my short answer maybe was, well he did try to make himself big, but the only thing big was his wide head, but the build up before was Matic's fault.

However why my long answer was a definitive yes because it could be 2-0 trying to be smart playing from behind in the 2nd half. Donkey of a player.

Just being himself nth more nth less

Bruno as a player playing at AM, his passing rate becoming bad in each day, he also miss placed so many passes…. This is all happened when we are trailing. First season he was good cuz opponents haven’t know his style of play but last season, opponent just sent a DM to press him and he will became invincible thru out the match. This season almost the same and under RR he starting to lose temper whenever we play chasing game.

Remembered there was one game Bruno was out for Covid and the team play was so smooth.

Malas want to bash the team anyone…


Last 7 games, don’t drop out from top 10, at least europa or worst also UEFA 3rd tier cup also can already.

ughh i tot the game is tomorrow ... looked like i didn't miss anything

I don’t even want europa conference league play off spot. I really want to get rid majority of first team players next season with fresh start of new manager.

Annoyed AF, especially since Arsenal also lost.

tottenham 4th now , more twist to come :S

luckily didnt watch the match. huhu

Conte will get 4th. Match his reputation

Man Utd/Glazers delayed
OGS should have been sacked aft that 0-5 but they waited/gave chance
then conte have signed up with spurs
murtough/fletcher fault too

Well I doubt board will hire conte also. Later openly blast them lol.

Hire interim doesn't improve the result nor the performance. Hope the next manager will come good.

RR said he has to adjust to the players we have. lol. that's why same shit. I hope the next manager will be more ruthless. stick to the style he think can win the game and dont give face to these primadonas.

another thing is we have so many players in the squad, please drop anyone if he is not performing. now at least 9 players feel safe - guaranteed will start the next game no matter how shit he performs in the game before.

fully agreed. he disrupt the shape of the team with his free roam and all rounder movement. then spray passes that 95% of them are shit. lol.

Is Man Utd a commercial club?? I starting to agree with LVG comment. The club keep on renewing underperforming players and offer crazy amount of salary to players who do not fit.

The club delay in sacking Ole because he is the perfect mgr for them... someone who listen to whatever board decide.

The club sacked JM immediately because he wanted the club to kick Pogba (and he is right), but the club never backed JM and kick JM. This just show how poor mgmt the club is, they never supported manager and only want to protect your profit.

Talking abt Man Utd "DNA", where is the DNA? When SAF wanted to oust Keane, the club supported. When SAF wanted to oust Jaap Stamp, the club supported, and the list goes on with Beckham, Ruud, etc... SAF has full backing from the club, he has been given authority and the players can see that. No players dare to challenge SAF.

But today, players realize the board will never supported the manager. Players have more power than manager... so not even Pep Guardiola can do better than any of the manager we hired because he will never have the authority over players.

That is Pre Glazer era, Pre-Glazer we used to spend the most among every other team as well.

RB Leipzig trying to hijack Manchester United's move to hire Erik ten Hag

i can imagine that rangnick recommend ten hag to RB after man utd refuse his advice


"Contrary to reports, however, the 52-year-old Dutchman is not demanding full control over transfers and has been irritated by the suggestions. "
- media spin trying to make ten hag demand full control, just to support poch

Well, that's the pressure of managing Man Utd if he going to become the manager. Get used to it then.

And by the way, it has been 9 years since SAF retire. These 9 years, I wonder how many new generations fans Utd has lost over to Liverpool and City... The commercial impact will come back to haunt them in coming years.

This post has been edited by hocksoo: Apr 11 2022, 10:43 AM

haha now we will be the decider in the title decider match

if only RR just come in and make the players happy again like ole time... no need change what formation strategy or wad... then he wouldnt get bash so much... kesian him also... lol...

wan this bunch of players to be pressing machine is impossible... other than first match... there are no successful pressing from then on... all press like headless chicken... this team can only play counter attack je la... how to press with a midfield that cant even pass properly... stupid players...

The thing is that even Ole's style was pressing high at first, then later onwards the players are no longer pressing. For me i only wanted RR for the club building aspect, and i really hope they involve him as much as possible for that (with reports claiming that it isnt the case). Clean slate with the new manager, sell whoever that doesnt fit the new philosophy of the club.

the problem is none of the players are actually listening to instructions... when shit comes down... they will revert to their old style... lol.... the problem is always our midfield lose control... u lose control of that, u basically lose more than half of the battle... which is always the case... ole time, players happy to come back in a losing game for him... for RR... u can see, even after we are losing, the urgency to score back is not there... which can see how much player reli 'trust' him... lol

This is why the board need to support manager 100%. If manager wants to axe a player, the board need to support him regardless how famous the player is. The board need to tell the players, the manager is in charge! Otherwise, no players will listen to manager no matter who he is. If the board do not support the manager, the players will just play casually to get the manager sack and think it is not their fault. If the board want someone who listen to them only, just hire back Ole, I am dam sure we will see Utd in Championship soon.

i feel under ole we wont be relegated, but will bcum long term mid table team... lol... as for the board will accept or not, hopefully our coming manager candidates can fight harder... we keep on keep all those prima donnas for their commercial value but no value in matches... full of high salary players throughout our first team... and none of them able to do shit... except maybe de gea...

to do this, the next manager will need a board that will back the manager more than the players.. because currently it seems the board will happily back the players more than the manager..

not sure... he got 1/11 right already... if he get 2 more maguire player.. can see relegation for real

lol i wish to see, is it coming manager also will put maguire as the captain and all time first 11 player... maybe he reli did something in training that we cant see... lol

means the board sets maguires as strating 11 base on his price tag. cant even play for everton. wait he did..

every game he plays he plays against the red shirt. still starts. only under rr he got removed sometimes but still manage to comeback.. amazing

Maybe the rumor about the starting lineup clause is true in the team.

yeah... cant say he did nothing.. cause he is almost the cause of the leaks... every single game sure got new meme videos (not one only)... and yet he starts every game for ole and under RR he on and then off and now on again.. if im the other teammates i also leave.. did you watch him in training with other england teammates?

AWB, Maguire, Shaw, Lingard & Pogba

Get rid of these players! I would like to add Rashford & Sancho to the list but they deserve another season under a new manager.

Basically all crap english players. Stop buying overrated english players!

sancho yes, rashford no

Ya. Recent months, once we kena scored, there's no power to come back and win d. All we see is moaning from bruno, miss placed passes and maguire mistakes

Thats why most of those players gotta get axed.

That's true.

Rangnick tried the 4-2-2-2 gegenpress but the players couldn't or wouldn't adapt. There was again the lack of effort and when you don't do the basic running in a gegenpress, it falls apart. Klopp would probably go get new players.
Rangnick can't. Rangnick can't buy a CDM he wants because Board opted not to and can't sell a player he doesn't in Lingard which got overruled by the Board again.

Club knows Rangnick is a temp. Players know.
Club management got themselves into this situation.

Imagine if Spurs do finish fourth above Arsenal and United. It's basically a point for Conte over the Board which didn't hire him.

not sure why the hate on sancho.. his first season and half of it under ole.

agree with you that he definitely can stay as he looks good and getting better these days. but rashford since lvg time already. considered he reach his maximum already. after so many years.
