After Manchester United’s awful start to the season, the focus has once again turned to the Glazers. This thread will look at some of the reasons why the club’s fans might be unhappy with their owners – from a financial perspective #MUFC

Since David Moyes, Man Utd have won 0 Champions League home knockout games and scored 1 goal (Lukaku's very sad consolation vs Sevilla). That covers a period of 8 years. That's the legacy of Ed Woodward and a corporate lawyer running a football club.
@liamthelloyd They try so so hard to not have an opinion, you can say the ball is round and they would probably talk about how it could oval if you look at it from another angle
Bruno Fernandes single handedly carried Utd for 18 months when there was nobody else who even looked like they cared. Has he played well tonight? No, but out of all the issues we have, and they are many, he is very very far down the list
Pressing high with no intensity just means you have to cover the whole field defensively, so of course there is going to be acres of space. Either sit deep, limit space and counter or press high and get pressure on the ball to stop them just rolling it around easily
Man Utd are like 50+ shots to ~15 across two games and they've drawn both 1-1. Very much a classic "stick with it lads" kinda scenario that will likely get lost amongst the angst of what are essentially bad results
Questions will be asked if Rangnick after this, but the first half everything was there; the tactics, the link-ups and even the chances, but this second half it just seems like the players have forgotten everything and everyone is just trying to be that guy
Mike Dean ran over to the screen with a smirk knowing he has already had more TV time than most of the players.
You cannot deny the man. He is inevitable.
