So you dont put kids who played well in preseason because they might suffer against players who can run rings around maguire. So, the solution is to play mctom who you KNOW will suffer against players that can run rings around maguire?

Now I'm talking about ten hag as a coach, not expectations vs transfers. Is the team performing at it's expected level with ten hag coaching them? Wan to say "need transfer for top4" is easy, but that has always been the case. LVG, mourinho, ralf needed transfers to be successful but instead of getting them transfers to achieve the aim, they were sacked. How come ten hag can lose to brighton and suddenly, hey, nothing to do with him, its the transfers.

I've always questioned the motivation of ten hag going to man utd, considering he only targets his ex-players, and up till now, i haven't seen any source of motivation other than money.

I mean, it's still early la, but I've always disliked how managers get too fixated on their ex-players as targets and refuse to consider other options. Plus, desperately keeping a player who dont want to stay, and one that almost nobody wants isnt a good sign. And the players dont even look better then they looked previously,perhaps even worse.

Barca wants to annul the FDJ contract and revert to the previous one. Another drama from Calatonia unfolds 

the reason we can deal with juve on rabiot? because rabiot is surplus to requirement. alamak. we are getting rejects. i rather see zidane play than get someone else reject. get kante tak apelah

if he chose to leave Barca (one of UCL top contenders with current players and form) to a mid table team which sucks real bad now and then for years, ppl will judge him greedy, not ambitious and ruin his career.
the truth is currently MU is just like New Castle but with larger fanbase and recognition.

But, we switch tactics ONLY after 0-2 down. You can also argue that by then Brighton also slow down or adapt to any changes we might introduce.
In other words, it is fine to switch off your TV at 0-2 down, expect MU to try something, maybe they will get 1 back maybe 2 and on a wondrous day get 3 back. Does not change the fact ETH spent 4 months orchestrating this first 45mins and showing piss all performance by our top British talents.

The damage already done. Just limitation mode to prevent 0-3 or worse. It would be a different story if we started Eriksen in Midfield at 0-0, got something out of it. But we won't / can't because we lacked a fit striker, that the well run club neglect to fill up. What really goes on in ETH mind? Take salary, say the right things and move on? I also want to have a shot at this. I only ask for 20k per week. Can fire me anytime after 100k signing on bonus. Guarantee won't be worse than 0-2 in 45mins at OT. Even if happen I promise to go full defensive mode and won't be 0-3.

Who is really in charge of the first 25 la......Can we have his address to send some wine and beer.

I dun believe eth is this. Rr yes lol.

Rio put up his preferred line up. I think is good too. Martinez as cdm. Eriksen Bruno. Sancho Ronaldo Rashford.

Why are we witchhunting ETH after just one game?

People were more patient with Ole. Worshipped him some more.

Said want to support manager, said the God Klopp also finished 8th on his first season.

Too much FM issit?

is it witch hunt when it's reasonable criticism?

especially after the 2 failed finals

tbh Brighton is a damn good team under Potter

but is limited due to the club size ...

touch wood if ETH fails ... Potter should be next consideration and hopefully no big clubs snatch him before that 

but i will back and support ETH now

By the Leeds reference, are you referring to our Carsome legend? Our legend defender who arrived in a white suit? Or the forward that we converted into a CDM?

Thing about Rabiot is that he plays closer to a number 10 than a number 6. Or we are buying hoping he can convert. Otherwise with Bruno, Eriksen and Rabiot our creative midfield slot is going to get congested.

Does the board hire ETH because of his footballing philosophy and achievements?
Or is it because the fans wanted him the most?

Or is it because ETH got the track record of 0 net spend for 10 years?
By the way the board moves in this transfer window looking like because ETH record of spending less..

Regarding starting Maguire and his buddies, there is a similar pattern with RR..
Almost halfway through his tenure he only realized that most of these players are not good enough..
It could be the same with ETH also.. after all, he's not a fan that been watching these players play every week before his appointment..

Also there could be some element of overconfident.. thinking can change these mediocre players to becoming top players..
RR did show these traits in the beginning as well..

Glazer paling suka repeat cycle. Like that few years dividends already.

While we are getting rejects, really got someone better than nothing. No wonder cr7 want leave. He already lose hope of the squad quality

Maguire is giving handicap -1 to all opponents.

Fred give 3/4 ball
Mctom giv 1 ball

3 of them play, is give 2 3/4 ball to opponent. So ronaldo need score 3 in every game

fdj not coming liao. Barsa signed 4th lever.

Urgent. Come rob me kinda bid

So..... we missed a potential replacement is it?

guess no major restructuring at the club. the transfer team so passive. relax je.

Under Poch maybe LOL
