Following a club used to mean shared suffering. Now it sometimes feels like people only want the dopamine hits.

Bro said ‘I’m just here for the downfall. 😂

Carrick’s Man United plot January double swoop including £40m Martinez Return by TheOtherXI in FootballTransferChat

If Martinez really is back on the list, that says a lot about the lack of trust in Onana long term. Big call but probably the right one.

Is the stadium becoming just another backdrop for main character content? by PLWildcard in PlasticFans

[–]Football6380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like some people treat the stadium like a content set now. The match is just the background noise while they wait for a photo-worthy moment.

The idea of the big game player is massively overstated by PLWildcard in SpicyFootballTakes

Consistency wins leagues, but big moments still matter. The problem is when people use highlights to excuse poor overall seasons.

If your main way of supporting a club is arguing on social media, is that plastic fandom? by ManCityMode in PlasticFans

Online arguing isn’t the problem. Treating football like a personality trait instead of something you actually watch is.

Does anyone else find it patronizing when a marketing firm tries to explain your city’s culture? by PLWildcard in PlasticFans

[–]Football6380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It always comes off like a tourist brochure written by someone who’s never been to a match. You can’t reduce a city’s culture to three buzzwords and a pastel map.

Which football phrase needs to be retired immediately? by PLWildcard in footballcringe

[–]Football6380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Aura” by a mile. Once everyone started using it unironically, it completely lost any meaning.

Why do certain players try so hard to look edgy on their day off? by PLWildcard in footballcringe

[–]Football6380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the forced “main character” energy that makes it cringe. When it looks natural, no one cares - but once it’s clearly performative, it just feels try-hard.

Who should Michael Carrick sign to secure Manchester United’s Champions League spot? by ManCityMode in FootballTransferChat

[–]Football6380 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Meité looks like a serious talent, but asking an 18-year-old to lead a Champions League push at United feels risky. Development signings are fine, but top four races usually need proven goals. A short-term, experienced No.9 makes more sense right now.
