@unitedyusuf Sometimes as a leader you should know what to say in public and what u say in private. Carrick can't come out to say he has bad players. He's to motivate them and what he says in public can do that. Also he mentioned that he hope some there will be some addition
Look at those who benefit & profit most when Manchester United fails. The United Stand copied the AFTV outrage bait model, built their channel off of it & now use it to influence millions.
Anyone with a shred of media literacy knows the club churns clicks bigger than any other in the world, especially now when it's dire. While it is far from the biggest problem the club has, it certainly doesn't help.
Neville & Goldbridge are a match made in hell.
@UTDPsalm It's not about hiring and sacking managers. Aren't you tired of repeating the same mistake over and over again? The more we continue with this culture the more we create an unstable environment for players and managers
@unitedyusuf We’ve brought in many good players who after some period we say they’re not good for the team. Sanchez, Mhki, Pogba, Memphis. These were huge talents that we thought will change our team but disappointed not cos they’re bad but cos they joined an unstable team
@unitedyusuf Like Licha said, the players are a reflection of what’s up there. Arsenal won the league with Lewis-Skelly, Martinelli, Trossard etc these aren’t world class players. They were in a stable team. United’s successful teams didn’t have 10 world class players, the team was stable
@unitedyusuf We’re not getting it here. It’s not about getting rid of the players, it’s about getting a plan and building a stable environment. Do u remember that at a point out attack was made up of Di Maria, Rooney, RvP, Falcao, Mata yet we didn’t achieve anything?
@unitedyusuf@LisandrMartinez I’m sure this is something that has been discussed by the squad. The players can’t be bad all of a sudden. They know when the board shows ambition
@liannesanderson That’s why he said the performance is a reflection of where the club is at the moment. When those at the top show ambition and care the players will do the same. Not only Martinez but almost all the players have been poor. Is that a coincidence?
I wrote this back in January. 9 months later, what I was fearing has come true.
“Sports psychologist Dr. Josephine Perry, who specialises in performance mindset, notes that experienced athletes develop "learned responses" to organisational patterns.
If the pattern is "struggle → managerial change → reset," then subconsciously, during periods of struggle, part of the player's mind is already anticipating the reset rather than fully committing to the uncomfortable process of adaptation.

I said the same thing last January in this piece, and backed it up with research from sports psychologists.
“Manchester United's culture has, for 13 years, taught players that when things get difficult, change is coming. Not change in their own approach or mentality, change in management.”
“Real cultural change takes time, consistency, and structural support. It requires players to be held accountable over the long term, not just given another reset button when things get uncomfortable.”
