Manchester United. Talking football.

[Agbulight @agbulight]

Long read.

Pep Guardiola needed around £450M in his first two seasons at Manchester City (including a £57M signing in his second January window) just to get players capable of playing his style of football.

Mikel Arteta spent close to three seasons at Arsenal before his team began to consistently dominate games.

Todd Boehly invested over £1B at Chelsea before they managed to win two cup titles.

Meanwhile, Manchester United fans and the media expect a new manager to walk in and perform instant miracles. What’s the point of a rebuild if we don’t have the patience to see it through?

Why heap pressure on ourselves when the last 10 years haven’t exactly been better?

Some fans argue Ole was better, some say Jose Mourinho, others Erik ten Hag. But let’s be honest, we complained bitterly under each of them. With Ole, we only came alive in second halves, living off constant comebacks. Jose sacrificed attractive football just to grind out points, and people still wanted him out. Erik tried his way, and the same happened.

Now Ruben Amorim is sticking to his philosophy, and rightly so. What’s the point of changing it if professional footballers at Manchester United can’t adapt? These same players go away on international duty, play in completely different systems, and give everything for their national teams. Yet they won’t do the same for the club that gives them a platform to be seen by billions.

You don’t need tactical genius to understand that United should never go to Grimsby and look like Grimsby, while Grimsby look like Manchester United. These players couldn’t adapt to Erik ten Hag’s system, couldn’t adapt to Ole’s, couldn’t adapt to Jose’s. Even Louis van Gaal gave up early on.

The truth is, we need a cultural reset at this club. Constantly swapping managers every two seasons will never fix the deeper problems.

Of course, I’ll still complain, rant, and feel disappointed, that’s only natural.

But for me, it’s Ruben Amorim till the end.

We started the season with two of the worst goal keeping duo in the league, we went the entire pre season with a striker we were going to sell. It was constantly reported that Ruben Amorim wanted an athletic midfielder which he never got. And we are here wanting an instant change with just 250M euro spent.

Lol

Ogbuehi Nzubechi Sixtus has a difficult 25/26 season at KV Kortrijk in Belgium. He managed 24 appearances and a goal.

He averaged 6 minutes in appearances throughout the season.
Hoping to see more of him next season, he looks like a proper striker.

🚨🚨Diogo Dalot BIG QUOTES on MUFC:

“I know that this place is better than when I arrived. I can see it behind the scenes. I can see it in the way people talk. 
I can see it from the progress we’ve made this season.

This club will win again, 100%. 

I cannot go into training every day without believing that. If you don’t, this is not the club for you. I’m reminded of it every time I drive into Carrington, and I see the big red letters over the car park. 

MANCHESTER UNITED

Then I walk down the corridor, and I see all these legends lifting big trophies. One day.  Soon. I’m sure of it.”

Call me delusional, but David Ornstein will report Elliot Anderson and Manchester United in the coming days.
