Lisandro Martinez putting the pressure where it should ultimately be, on the ownership and hierarchy at Manchester United for their decision-making and the direction of the club.

He is correct in saying that the performances have been “a reflection” of the club itself and that accountability stretches well beyond who is in the dugout plus the players.

There can be no argument that the squad is lacking depth, quality, balance and the right profiles.

He also nails it in terms of cycling through managers, but not having any question marks over what’s happening upstairs.

United openly interviewed around Europe for Erik ten Hag’s successor, only to keep him and arm him with new coaches and circa £200m in players before sacking him and his staff for £10.4m.

They hired Ruben Amorim despite knowing the squad - which they allowed EtH to shape - was so ill-suited to his approach. They were very aware Amorim was unwavering on his philosophy and promised to persevere with both him and it.

Only to then try to dictate style, system and selections to him. They stuck with Michael Carrick only to sell him very short.

Let’s not forget the big, long play to the tune of £3m to get Dan Ashworth, before paying £4.1m to axe him after five months.

If the performances on the pitch are a mess, they speak to the state of play off the pitch.

@markgoldbridge No reason? If he’d have slid in on me like that I’d have pushed him into the boards too

“And cut the morality act.

Newcastle and Villa fans aren’t leading some great socialist revolution to save football, they want wealthy owners to spend their way to the top. They weren’t hamstrung by PSR for the previous 70 years or more, they were mostly just shite.”

Brilliantly said.

It’s completely self serving. They’re not doing it for the betterment of clubs like mine, they simply want their rich owners to pump in infinite money and blow other clubs out the water.

And for all the bleating about “cartels” ironically THEY want to become one.

I spent years exposing Man City's cheating while their plutocratic regime believed they could get away with it all. While my wife lay dying, these are the threats, ugly tactics and intimidation the club and their fans used against me, writes NICK HARRIS https://t.co/lfYEBvO5S4

@FabrizioRomano More transfer news from Fabrizio I see….

[Billy Carpenter @billycarpy]

Not proud, but I once got creative and registered a team of 20-year-olds in a U10s tournament. Other coaches kept saying "you can't use them" and "they have beards" and "I think that's Myles Lewis-Skelly." But whatever happened behind the scenes, the game is won on the pitch.

Rory Jennings makes a bold claim about Pep Guardiola's Man City legacy 👀

[Rory Jennings ⭐ ⭐ @Chelsearory]

Not that it was ever in doubt but I don't want to hear any Guardiola Vs Sir Alex Ferguson debates again. Guardiola's legacy is tarnished beyond repair. It was all bent, built on sand and therefore totally irrelevant.
