Everyone is going to scream for the manager to be sacked but it’s proven changing managers changes nothing at this club.

I totally agree but like a lot of other fans, I'm running out of funds in my give a frick account. fricking shite owners and administrators dead set on fleecing supporters.

But again, we spent 50M on Onana and straight up moved de Gea out while he was away on vacation. It's a fricking Shakespearean tragedy.

Nah. I'm over enabling this nonsense

"Changing nothing" should entail United at the baseline of fighting for the Europa league, winning a plurality of their matches, having a positive GD, and maybe making a deep cup run. 15th in the EPL should have been enough to pull the trigger on what is - acknowledging the cupboard being bare - fundamentally a poor, extremely limited manager

Now we're at the beginning of the season with all to play for. We didn't just run out a mostly reserve / under-21 side to get experience or spell the first choice players as if it's mid-season. We sent out veteran-heavy overkill against a 4th division side, and they still couldn't get it done. It took everything we had to even take it to pens

Maybe after 40 more windows Amorim will get the players he needs to be effective. To me it makes way more sense to just excise the cancer taking the club to historical lows and be done with it. Next time he offers to resign we have no business convincing him otherwise

A new manager is not going to fix this. But his win percentage is awful and we just lost to a bunch of plumbers. He might just resign and say screw this. I hope he stays. I just don’t think his formation is going to work


There’s no manager available that I feel good about either


I will say I HATE how he hid on the bench shaking during PKs. Looked pathetic. That’s not a leader of men

That would be the Glazers and not any managers we have had here since Fergie left. It's a hard pill to swallow but this club is rotten and the downward spiral United have been in for over a decade has little to do with Amorim. Also, who in their right mind is going to want to take over this shite show after him knowing there's a good chance you won't even get a season to do your thing before you get the sack. I'm fricking disgusted too but nothing about this club is good enough. Like Broyota said, changing managers isn't going to help this club. Best to dig in, expose everything and hope to God the Glazers decide on a full sale or at the very least get rid of the players who don't belong here.

Well history has proven my point. (Moyes, Van Gaal, Mourinho, Ole, Ten Haag) there comes a point where you have to admit it’s no longer just a manager issue. Am I saying he doesn’t deserve the sack? No. But watch we will sack him and continue to suck. It’s an entire club mentality issue. No leadership at any level, no characters. Just losers.

Come on guys, you don't just walk into Grimsby on a Wednesday and come out alive. Nothing to be ashamed of here.

Good news is that with no League Cup and no European football the United squad should be fresh for the relegation battle late in the season.

MU is definitely better from an independent perspective. Should finish mid table, and build out from there next year.

shite fees but he had to go. Hojlund to Napoli on loan with buy obligation almost done as well. Need some positive news on Antony.

I’m guessing Manchester United coaching staff and owners are trying to figure this out as well.

Instead of sorting out Manchester United.

We need a fricking GK now

Watching Onana swatting at the ball hitting his hands and going in during penalties was embarrassing.
