@Ezedontmiss A candle that has no oxygen may flicker to the point of going out. Especially when it is put in environments without oxygen.
The hunger is still there, the environment just isn't favourable.
@mayor_united I wonder if we, the fans, ever really ask ourselves if we know what's going on behind the scenes and why managers say these kinds of things.
@iam_commando At 19, he scored the away free kick that gave United the lead in Europa League semi-final against Celta Vigo, the only European title post Fergie United won. At 29, he is fresh from a reviving stint with Barca but has to keep being dragged with United's ups and downs.
On day 1 of my high school history class, our professor got up and said
You are 15 or 16 years old. 200 years ago people your age were married, planted crops, had children, and built a cabin by winter. You can do your homework. The bar set for you historically is embarrassingly low. You are not dealing with regional famine or plague. You do not have to save your family from marauders or go into battle to destroy your enemies. You have to sit down and learn from someone who cares about you in a safe, air-conditioned room. You have no excuses.
what stops humanity from living peacefully together isnโt a lack of intelligence... itโs just ego and identity.
the moment people attach their identity to things like religion, tribe, ideology, nationality or status, disagreement stops being about ideas and starts feeling like a personal attack... once that happens, people defend beliefs the same way they defend their survival.
history shows that humans cooperate easily in small groups but conflict appears when groups compete for power, resources and recognition... fear of losing influence, land, wealth or cultural dominance pushes people to protect us against them.
until humans learn to value shared survival more than group superiority, peace will always remain fragile.
@utdsnaps The top is not where we belong, we may need to rephrase that. We want to get to the top, so we have to earn it. If we keep saying "we belong there", we will keep ourselves in the box and keep doing things that do not work. We have been to the top, we have to earn our way there.
@utdsnaps Don't get to invested into the job, this is hard job, many have failed by trying to maintain control, be flexible. Do your best and try to stay reasonable. Sometimes the stepping stones that lead forward are found in the least thought-of places.
@JamieTennant3 @InsideUnitedHQ I really think we should try to look at it from that perspective. A person like Trent who came up the same time like Rashford had Klopp to stick with, if we may compare and he left in 2024. Rashford in that time had Van Gaal, Mourinho, Solskjaer, Ten Hag.
@JamieTennant3 @InsideUnitedHQ And why do you think that is? Did everyone, not just them ever consider that it eventually looked like the team was going nowhere and then the loss of faith from Rashford? 4 managers all coming and making you start from scratch, have we ever imagined what that must feel like?
