Blue Star Error posted:Why do you want to do that? Is it because he said mean things about Louis Van Gaal? He does every sodding week and it's incredibly tedious and not insightful in the least. I wouldn't mind if there was some kind of tactical discussion, or context, or any kind of demonstration of a working understanding of football at more than a win/lose level, but it's literally just "UNITED PAID MONEY; WHERE IS POINTS" every time as if it's somehow come as a great shock to him that we've not come away from the Etihad with ten more points than we had at the same point last week I'm pretty mad about this and would like to melt down about it

At the risk of being tedious and not insightful in the least, you would expect the most expensive squad in the history of football not to have their season be a complete write off 10 games in tbh.

Blue Star Error posted:4 points is a long time in football They could still qualify! Plus, the defense (left back especially) is rounding into shape and once they get healthy, look out (side of the top half of the table)!

In all seriousness the defense is a tire fire and it will be over before people get healthy or poo poo gets sorted out.

Stoke, a team who got beat twice in a week by a team who were gutted in the summer managed to get 3 points at COMS. I would think a team throwing money arround like it was going out of fashion with a trendy internationally recognised manager could do better.

Van Gaal has apparently ordered an investigation into the Carrington facilities since he finds it absurd that there are so many muscle injuries in training.

This is Manchester United's worst start to a season since 1986-87 apparently, and after assembling the most expensive squad in the history of English football to do it. e: this time last season they were 8th with 17 points, 8 behind Arsenal in first. Now they're 10th with 13 points, 13 behind Chelsea. vyelkin fucked around with this message at 01:24 on Nov 3, 2014 |

No but you see, Van Gaal has made United fans feel good again instead of telling them the harsh truth that their team is terrible and they can't compete with good sides, so there should be no pressure on him even though he spent five times as much money as Moyes did to get worse results, without even having European fixture congestion as an excuse.
