    Players are throwing EtH under the bus just as they did Ole, Rangnick, Mourinho and van Gaal. Absolutely pathetic.

      well based on history they know they will outlast the manager and based on how the club was run in the past they are not wrong to think that.

    I’m gonna be sad when people will call for ten Hag’s head instead of these players. Imo we should get behind ten Hag 100% and start calling these players out when they’re getting outrun every match by the opposition.

      Absolutely agree. Players have proven time and time again they just down tools when they don’t like a manager. I don’t think he will get the sack, but the shitrags and talkSPORT will all be calling for it

    I think I’m getting to the point where I don’t want to talk about Manchester United with anyone except my therapist

    I feel so shit for wanting to sack all the managers before EtH, when the constants are everything else and not the manager. Knowing everything I know now, I wish we kept van Gaal. He’s the only one that was working towards something with a clear identity, even if it was boring, you could see what he wanted to do. But we were so fickle as fans.

    Please if you want to criticise someone, criticise the players. They are the ones constantly letting the manager down, over and over and over again.

      I’ll never forget the first 30 minutes under Rangnick against Palace, we looked the best I’d seen us in years. Then we just never saw it again, it like they all thought “ooh that was a bit tough lads, let’s not bother doing that again”

    Big changes from ETH, similar to previous round, dropped Bruno and Fernandes.

    would love to see these changes persist if the team plays better.

    I guess on the bright side, I tend to get A LOT of focused time to work on things around the house during the second half of our games. I might just pull myself together by the end of the season if they keep this up.

    Like a hot knife through butter. So fucking easy for them. Our B team is just as bad as our A team.

    Fuck off, that’s a yellow for Hannibal but Joelinton literally stopping an attack is not?

    Gonna be so funny if we somehow play really well without Rashford and Bruno, only to see them both back in the starting 11 for game vs Fulham, and lose. Would be peak United and peak ten Hag.

    well if the “leadership” of the club gets cold feet now and sacks Ten Hag then they might as well put on some clown makeup. It would just expose their incompetence and show they have no idea what they are doing.

    at this point our only hope is Ratcliffe coming and clearing house, installing a competent DoF.

    you could probably swap Maddison with Mount or Szoboszlai with mount and mount would be praised at the moment for his contribution to those teams while at United he is killing his career
