@MiguelDelaney I’ve just finished reading this and thought it was brilliant - albeit incredibly depressing when realising just where the game is heading and how deep the rabbit hole goes! Amazing work, you should be proud.
@nqatpod We didn’t get a penalty for about 8 months after Klopp had a moan once. United have got to be more savvy with stuff like this. Carrick should absolutely go at it him
@SmnLlyd5 Think it’s perfectly reasonable to say we were unlucky today and punished for individual mistakes, whilst at the same time acknowledging that those kind of performances are probably as good as it will get under Amorim…. Which ultimately will never be good enough.
@AdamCrafton_ That’s literally all it is. Fans have given him far too much leeway purely because they’re (understandably) desperate for someone to succeed. The board should be far more nuanced than that though, and in reality should have sacked him three times already. Surely it can’t go on?
@DManFootie@utdrobbo There were about 3 other mistakes after that too. Ultimately, Brentford won it back and popped it through midfield quickly to fashion a chance. When have you ever seen Amorim’s United do that?
@jaib1990@AdamMcKola It’s 31 league games, with a return of 31 points. Those points came via 8 league wins, half of which were against promoted sides. I think we’ve had more than enough evidence even if it still ‘feels’ early.
@Ankaman616@arghkid@R_o_M Yup. 80 years of heritage and identity slowly being eroded to fund the next expensive, lacklustre signing. If the management committee (including the head coach) see the academy as a revenue stream first and pipeline for the first team second we might as well all call it a day.
@favorativie @AustinAustoo @Muppetiers The players took advantage of space opening up due to a league 2 side being physically exhausted. The manager did fuck all to change it. Grimsby were unlucky not to be 4-0 up before that, but you keep burying your head in the sand.
I can accept that maybe I’m just in my feelings and swayed because of the way things are going. So fine. Maybe it doesn’t matter at all and I’m overreacting. But everything in me is thinking what sort of fucking wet wipe of a manager doesn’t watch a penalty shoot out? 🚩
