Remember when football wasn’t some robotic tactics based chess battle? When referees 100s miles away couldn’t get involved in a match? When individual creative brilliance was as valued as much as some weird managers obsession with one style of play? Yeah I miss that too.
Not only do Man Utd ruin players. They ruin managers.
Sacking the manager is not the solution.
Same patterns keep repeating.
-Bad recruitment
-Players aren’t fit for purpose
-Managers start drowning.
-Fans call for a sack
Manager bounce.
Rinse and repeat.
Everyone is calling for his head. And you may get it because Utd are clueless. And this pattern will repeat itself again.
Demand change at a higher level at the club. Not cosmetic nonsense.
In the middle of the Grand Bazaar market, Istanbul.
🇹🇷: ‘Where are you from?’
🏴: ‘Wales’
🇹🇷: ‘…Wales?’
🏴: ‘You know Gareth Bale?’
🇹🇷: ‘…Gareth Bale?’
🏴: ‘Yes, ex Real Madrid, Gareth Bale.’
🇹🇷: ‘No, but I know Joe Morrell’
Grand Bizarre.
The nonsense about Pep surpassing SAF to be the greatest football manager of all time just needs to stop, SAF broke the Scottish stranglehold of Celtic & Rangers moved south & ended Liverpool’s dominance of English football, Peps clubs were serial winners before he joined them 👍🏻
