I hope we are treated the same as the rest.
By Dan Go To PostI hope we are treated the same as the rest.City are asking to go ahead with it although Rodo did say some of our youth players have it as well which will affect who replaces guys in the first team. Will be interesting to see what the team looks like. Pep did confirm Foden, Walker and Zinchenko have had it recently but the team is still mostly avoiding saying which players get it. We'll be able to figure out tomorrow who the others are though.

Laird's loan to Bournemouth went ahead.
This would suck. He's really good and would be a perfect long term replacement for Mane.

This guy has a pretty much 100% record and he says there hasn't been any talks between Porto and Liverpool.

Fairly damning article from Ian Ladyman. Basically says management think that our players are either too stupid or lazy to succeed under Conte. More and more coaches are actually going down the Conte route as well. That would limit us from a lot of potential appointments. Like, Guardiola and Tuchel are all about patterns and detail. Gut the squad.

Manchester United decided against an approach for Premier League winner Antonio Conte after deciding his style of precise and exact micro-coaching would not be suited to the players at Old Trafford.
Sources at United have told Sportsmail that Conte is recognised as a great coach but one whose demands on players to carry out minute and exact instructions may have proved unsuited to the squad at Old Trafford.
A United source said: ‘If Conte tells a player to do six things then he wants to see them do all six immediately.
'He wants to be able to programme players to the minute details. We were not sure that was a great fit for us.’

Luis Diaz is going to be a very expensive player, not sure Liverpool are ready to pay that kind of money.
Starting to think Ragnick might get the sack, or it at least being a possibility.
Full scale mutiny across the English press from the squad & Ole-esque performances on the pitch.

😂😂😂😂 ah man we have no hope
Also I read that Lingard and Rashford are thick as thieves again. Guess they fell out a bit at some point but ugh that’s such a bad influence on Rashford
Management admitting the players are cunts and would be too hard pressed by Conte is incredible
Fuck this club. Shower of bastards.

Wonder who the leaker is 😂
This is the only thing leaked from the United boys that is a fair point tbh
Tbh I don't know what the endgame is for the players. If their power play works and Rangnick is sacked, the men who appointed him, Murtough and Fletcher, will still be in charge of footballing operations.
They're the people who have identified the need for a footballing identity and a greater emphasis for patterns in style of play. This only comes from constant drilling in training. So whomever is appointed after Rangnick will still be looking to implement similar methodologies. Do the players start bitching to the press again?
I think over the next few windows we should be looking to sell half a dozen players. Weed out the bad influences, bring on some academy players who want to impress and supplement with a few signings.

By Killer7 Go To PostTake me back to the times this was going on please.Look like they'd fit right in with this lot:
Ralf is a smart man, I’m sure he knows who’s a bad influence and who isn’t.
Obviously you can start looking at the players who got multiple managers fired and go from there.
The rest will only be fixed with decent performances and Ws. It’s football. And for these things to happen, a midfield is a requirement.

It’s obvious already that Ragnick is in big trouble. The players have to respect the manager and buy into their ideas and they clearly don’t do either of those things. He’s United’s version of Nuno at Tottenham, it’s painfully clear that the players don’t respect him at all. Impossible to succeed when that’s the case.
Crusher is right, they just need Ws -
ralf is interim - basically the a substitute teacher - he's taking notes and looking round for when he goes upstairs.
This is recon.
that said, the results need to be better.

That's Rangnick.
No idea if he's any good, but you have to admire Leicester's transfer policy. They identify a target and move quickly to secure him
By n8 dogg Go To PostWould be fine with that, provided there’s also huge player exodus so he isn’t undermined immediately. Should be getting rid of:Ideally we'll get rid of everyone on that list. But some of those players are so poor and on such high wages that there probably isn't a market for them. We won't get outright sales for Martial or VDB. They're on too much currently for any other team to match.
De Gea or Henderson
Jones
Pogba
Matic
Mata
Lingard
Ronaldo
Cavani
Martial
at the minimum. Maybe Dalot too if Laird is going to come in. Keep van de Beek and make him suffer on the bench every week I reckon just for bants.
Mata, Cavani and Lingard and Pogba are out of contract this summer so that's easy. But Jones and Matic both have a year left and I can't see there being any interest in either.
We've backed ourselves into such a corner with player contracts that the only guaranteed departures are the ones with expiring deals.

He’s United’s version of Nuno at Tottenham, it’s painfully clear that the players don’t respect him at all. Impossible to succeed when that’s the case.I think the problem with his appointment is that I'm sure none of the players knew who he was more or less. This sort of thing would be fine in Germany where he has a reputation.. but bringing in this guy who really is not a known quantity with a VERY modest history of success to take over a big club and turn over the apple cart in the process with the idea it would only be for 6 months is crazy. If you're gonna have an interim guy, he should be a person the players know already. Should have just done Carrick for the rest of the season at least initially or tried to hire an actual successor.
Shit I just remembered United folk asking 150m for Pogba not too long ago. I almost forgot Pogba even existed.
It's OK, we all know you wanted him badly and was sad you couldn't get him.
Maybe in the summer when he's out on a free.
