If there is ever any evidence needed that spending is not the be-all and end-all for success it is their transfer activity in the last 4 seasons.Originally posted by Parm View Postbest part of £350 million spent since Slur retired and they revert to hoof ball
Not forgetting that this was a title winning side they were building on too, according to transfermarkt they've spent over £500m on players since summer 2013 with about £375m net out
I could not dig, I dared not rob:
Therefore I lied to please the mob.
Now all my lies are proved untrue
And I must face the men I slew.
What tale shall serve me here among
Mine angry and defrauded young?

He's destroyed the team's confidence in a matter of weeks. Fair enough we lose City, but the reaction has been appalling. He banishes Blind after a poor display despite him and Bailly having a decent partnership and is nowhere to be seen today. Smalling comes in and looks terrible with Bailly as most expected being similar players. Confidence ruined. Martial's confidence looks at an all-time low, not helped by being continually subbed every game. Mkhitaryan doesn't play for the first few games, gets injured on international duty then proceeds to start against City (with Mata being dropped despite playing the first few games) despite being unfit. Has a mare. His confidence will also be shot. Then there's the likes of Depay, Schweinsteiger, Schneiderlin, Darmian who will already be low on confidence, nothing has changed there - and in the case of Schweinsteiger banished from the squad completely. You move on to Pogba who looks a shadow of his best self, Mourinho has no idea what to do with him. Finally there's Rooney, who somehow despite all this chopping and changes and seemingly no clue what to do with the side, manages to remain in the first team while looking like a pub player.
Overall I am not confident at all that we can turn this around from here and we look like Chelsea did last year.

Klopp has shown what you need to do to trim a squad and get some balance. Utds is bloated loads of egos and a manager with an even bigger one. There is no way he can keep that squad happy, and guys like Martial - who looks a decent player are not going to fit in because Zlatan, Rooney, Pogba etc all have to start.
Amazing. Who've they got next
Modifying post.

I always thought that Martial is overrated. United's squad is average at best and they did do well considering this last season with Van Gaal and getting rid of him for someone like Mourihno wasn't going to change things too much.
They missed out on Guardiola and that's where it is at the end of the day.Are we winning?

It is going terrifically well. He's not handling the players well and he still has no idea what his best line up is. He's going against type and playing with an attacking line up because he thinks he needs to. But he hasn't worked out how to balance that and the answer certainly isn't Rooney.
But above all it looks like the players have worked out he's a bit of a **** and if they down tools and don't play for him like Chelsea did last year it is going to be a wonderful season as the board stick by him due to backing him heavily + big contract.Last edited by labourRed; 18-09-16, 06:04 PM.
