@JaydeMayaHinata Many United fans are just delusional they did it with McTominay, Rashford and now Mainoo.
And the funny thing is they all go quiet when these players perform.
They watched Scott go to Napoli and turned his career around and the same with Rashford last season.

Manchester United Women should be building a dynasty, not just maintaining relevance. The club has the resources, fanbase, and platform to dominate — but only if the football vision matches the ambition

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Marc Skinner deserves credit for helping stabilize Manchester United Women after the club’s early years, but it’s becoming harder to ignore that he may not be the right manager to take this team to the next level.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

This isn’t about disrespecting Marc Skinner. He helped establish stability during an important period. But sometimes a manager can do a good job and still not be the right person for the next phase. Both things can be true.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Timing matters. Waiting too long to make difficult decisions can leave clubs stuck in cycles of “almost.” If United genuinely want to become Europe’s elite, they need to act before stagnation becomes the culture.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

The club should also aim higher psychologically. Competing for Champions League places cannot be the ceiling. The expectation should be challenging for the WSL title every single season. That mentality has to come from the manager and coaching staff.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Youth development should become a central pillar too. United have access to incredible young talent, but there needs to be a stronger pathway into a clearly defined style of football so players develop naturally into the first team.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

There also needs to be more emphasis on attacking football. Old Trafford crowds and United supporters want to see a team that controls matches, creates chances consistently, and plays with confidence — not one that spends long stretches reacting to games.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Recruitment also has to become more aligned with a long-term vision. Signings should fit a system instead of looking like individual market opportunities without a bigger tactical plan attached.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

The next manager has to be progressive and fearless. Women’s football is evolving rapidly, and the best teams are coached with bravery, intensity, and flexibility. United need someone capable of matching the tactical standards being set across Europe.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

The first thing United need is a modern tactical identity. Fans should immediately recognise what the team is trying to do whether it’s aggressive pressing, possession dominance, quick transitions, or structured attacking play.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

The frustrating part is that Manchester United Women aren’t far away. The squad has quality, experience, young talent, and one of the biggest names in world football behind it. But the club needs clearer football leadership to maximise it.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

At some point, the question stops being “Is Marc Skinner doing a decent job?” and becomes “Can he realistically build a title-winning side?” Right now, there’s not enough evidence to confidently say yes.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

None of this erases Skinner’s positive moments — including cup success and important league finishes. But football moves quickly, and what was once “good progress” can become limitation if the next step never arrives.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Rivals are evolving faster tactically and structurally. Clubs like Chelsea Women and Arsenal Women have clearer football identities and stronger long-term direction. United risk falling behind if they settle for stagnation.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Expectations matter. This is Manchester United. The women’s side should be competing aggressively for major trophies every season, not simply aiming to stay “competitive” around the top four.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Another concern is player progression. Some individuals arrive with huge potential but plateau instead of improving significantly within the system. Elite managers elevate talent — not just maintain it.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Recruitment has brought in talented players over the years, but the squad still doesn’t always look greater than the sum of its parts. That raises questions about coaching, structure, and player development.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

There’s also a recurring problem with in-game management. Too many matches drift without meaningful tactical adjustments, and substitutions can feel late or ineffective when momentum is clearly shifting.

[Nuel @Nee_bho]

Tactically, the team often feels reactive instead of proactive. Against stronger opponents, United sit back too much. Against weaker opponents, they sometimes lack creativity and attacking patterns to break teams down consistently.
