We've got the makings of a decent back 4 / 5 imo. If we sign a ST, RW, CM, get some of these spineless shithouses fit and pulling their fingers out, we might actually start getting somewhere. Then we can stop being desperate and irrational, and it will help the youth out. We can start being more selective, and moving the odd player on when we know they cant cut it rather than having to mass cull the squad or try to move mercenaries on that are paid incredible wages.
But as usual, we're on a knife edge. This could go either which way, because its such a mess from the board and ownership down. I have little faith they'll hold their nerve or stick to the strategy (or improve it).

If they stick with ole and back him with purchase and sales, it’s will only be a matter of time before we have a strong dressing room again. Then we’ll see what he can do with it and be able to judge him accordingly.

He's incapable of playing with shit players & elevating them or leading. He can play with world class sides, win leagues & World Cups, being an integral part. He can't pull a shit side up. So give him better players to play alongside rather than losing the one player we have that is capable.
Why we find the need to cane him rather than the club is a bit weird.

f*** Pogba.

So, basically you need other players to carry him so he can stroll around looking for his YouTube moment. Unless it’s a World Cup where he’ll knuckle down for a few games and be disciplined. But if a united manager asks him to do that, he either won’t do it or isn’t capable of doing it for a season.

Maybe we could buy a couple of other decent f***ing midfielders rather than w*****g our load on shite like Fred & Matic? That's £90m worth, you cited Kante & Matuidi, players that respectively cost ~£30m each, so we could have had both & also bought Maddison when he moved from Norwich to Leicester if we had the right people directing transfers with some understanding of what we needed.

We finally have a man in charge who understands precisely that. And some want him sacked 10 games after his 1 transfer window.

Because he couldn’t care less about united and wants to leave. If he put the effort in whilst surrounded by rubbish, you may have a point. There’s just no excuse for the attitude we’ve seen from him over the past 3 years, despite the many people constantly making excuses for him.
