I’m less interested in hot takes and more interested in understanding why.
Why games feel harder than they should.
Why progress stalls.
Why results don’t always mean control.
Thoughtful Manchester United discussion, without the noise.
@UTDFondree Totally agree. I don’t care if it’s pre-season, you can’t just switch it on next Saturday. We looked like it was our first pre-season game. Unacceptable transfer window so far and unacceptable performance. It will be a LONG season if the board don’t show SOME ambition.

Simon Jordan analyses Martin O'Neill's comments on Celtic's pitch invasion.
Its a bizarre rule and interpretation but It’s deemed an accidental handball because it comes off his hip before hitting his arm. Accidental handballs in that circumstance are only penalised if Mbuemo directly scores after it comes off his arm. It actually hits a forest player before going to cunhna. It’s extremely fortuitous I agree.

@UtdDistrict Hopeless. But it was coming. We had so little luck under Ruben. Carrick has got a lot of luck and I think it’s running out. Our last 4 games have been poor. We just happened to rely on moments to score. The moments have dried up. Never looked like we had an extra man ever.
Carrick waits too long to fix an error of judgement
Sesko could've started 2-3 games ago; evident vs Burnley under Fletcher, and defo after Fulham
Not bringing Amad (only 1v1 player in the SQUAD) back in after that widthless display 1st half display vs Palace is also a bit mad
Interesting Carrick making a big call with Dalot. Didn’t have a good game against Palace. Sending a message to the rest of the squad. You can’t just phone it in anymore.
