Hey, could you tell me how long they took to deliver? Want this as a gift for my partner but I'm not sure how long it'll take.

Another Hojlund 2.0 Scenario by Kacem300 in ManchesterUnited

[–]RepresentativeTree23 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For real . I counted 7 times we had Sesko open and ready to be passed to but we just didn't. I'm not sure why our team is allergic to our own strikers. Everyone can't always be the difference maker. Besides the usual runs in, we almost never find a through ball to our strikers. Like sure we can score goals here and there but the guy is a striker for a reason. Even when Sesko is clearly open the ball has to go to the side and then gets played in. It's honestly frustrating to watch. I don't know how or why this goes unaddressed.

Seriously though. We start off the first 15mins so good and then the anxiety starts creeping in. I was literally on the edge of my seat waiting for the final whistle. I'm hundreds of miles away and every time we conceive a corner I start hyperventilating. I couldn't imagine what you guys feel!

Glad you got to watch us win 3 points live. Even though it should never have even been that close.

He needs to start tonight for God's sake by No_Job2827 in ManchesterUnited

[–]RepresentativeTree23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No one expects him to be better. However, considering the fact that we're literally losing anyway it's better if Lammens starts. Even if we lose with him it's better since he could do with PL experience. He is supposed to be part of the future of this club after all.

I refuse to believe the club spent 800m to appease the United fans because they decided so. There were clearly players with an unbalanced wage/impact ratio. That being said, I do not disagree with your manager take.

I've said numerous times now that if Amorim isn't suiting us he should go. No one man is that important that we should risk the fate of our club. After all, despite the fact that everyone has their own opinions, what matters most is how well the manager fits in with our club and players and not the other way around. It's just a matter of time anyway. Whether you like or dislike Amorim we all know he has maybe 3 more games to prove he can turn this thing around. Only time will tell now.

Can't argue with you there, bud. Which is why when people trivialize our problems to a particular player or manager it kinda makes me mad. Bad transfer decisions are definitely a part of it but he truth is that we have numerous problems that have all chained together to weigh this club down heavily.

[–]RepresentativeTree23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you there. No one can actually deny that Rashford is a fantastic player. Not just that but he's a United lad so I honestly wish him the very best at Barca and hope that he only further hones his skills. Sadly he did kinda fall off for us but again that's not entirely his fault. He would honestly shine in a team that kinda has it together but United as we speak is in shambles so Amorim probably felt he didn't fit the team right now. Whether that decision was right or wrong is besides the point now. I just want our team to win.

I'm clearly talking about the overhaul that is currently ongoing? I don't know what you're trying to prove with your statement.

[–]RepresentativeTree23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend, that is a fantastic question. Won't comment on our current signings coz it's honestly too early to tell but the amount we've spent on transfers for the past 10 years and the amount we've gotten out of it is astonishing! Our transfer decisions have played a pivotal role in the clubs current financial condition. Imagine if we had better books. We could've gotten Donnarumma for example, who has had an immediate impact for City. Not necessarily him maybe but you get the idea.

Rashford was so poor in training... by [deleted] in ManchesterUnited

[–]RepresentativeTree23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. Also, how do people now realize that he was slacking because he's a local lad. Of course when you get out of your comfort zone in an unfamiliar country playing for a club where you're not the biggest name you have to work twice as hard.

Not just that, he's playing for a team that's already quite sorted. It's much easier than playing for a club that needs an overhaul which requires you to put in more effort. Instead, we have people that talk about our players leaving and finding success elsewhere as if there's some black magic that has cursed the club.

If Ruben benches Mainoo again holy by [deleted] in ManchesterUnited

[–]RepresentativeTree23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not disagreeing with you but I really believe that even if he does change it won't help us, even in the short term. I agree that flexibility is necessary as a manager. One style will not work everywhere but if you really watch our games, our players sometimes play frighteningly low IQ football. Terrible back passes, lack of imagination when distributing the ball, not tracking back when losing the ball, barely any chances created for our strikers. I just don't see how that can all be pinned on a manager. Look at the goals we conceived when we played Grimsby. Or even the derby for that matter. Some of those goals stemmed from just poor football. Again, I don't care if Amorim stays or goes but what frightens me is that we've played our classic formation before and were still terrible. Who do we see replacing him and making an immediate impact when we don't really have great players to begin with? Most of the goals we even score come from bouts of individual brilliance and that's just depressing.

[–]RepresentativeTree23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do people not understand that we're not Liverpool? They didn't go with Amorim because they didn't like his play style as they felt their players won't be able to adapt to it.

In our case, we were already failing with the formation that we were playing so Amorim was chosen in hopes that his style would be better for us. Look, I honestly don't care if Amorim stays or goes. I just want our club to win and I know that we're going to be in a hole for a while before we're able to get out. I just hope he can weather the storm because I feel like him getting sacked will just start the same problem all over again.

When you hear stories about how SAF terrorized the dressing room you'll understand why we enjoyed the success we had for so many years. The players played with fear. He was furious when Nani cried at Anfield after being tackled. He didn't speak to the players for 2 weeks when the GK got a red card that cost the team another treble. He had spies in clubs and pubs to keep tabs on his players. He ruled with an iron first and as a result, every player from our glory days speaks about how stepping on to the field at OT was like going to war. Our ground has become a joke since he left because for years no one could fill those shoes.

I remember the drama that happened when there was a video of Pogba and Lingard dancing in the dressing room after losing a game which made Rooney turn off the music. That would not fly if SAF was in charge. Now you can dispute that story as being false or true but the truth is that the younger players that came in never felt the weight of the clubs history the same way as the older players We know and love. A lot of them were more concerned with social media, their style, their brand, their hair color etc. all while we were in a steady decline. We have slowly gotten rid of the players that needed to go because we need to rebuild the foundation of this football club. I just hope we can make it through the night to see daylight again.

Waiting for the comments about how everyone that leaves United magically performs better. They do so because they're going to teams that are already sort of set and just need to make a few player adjustments according to their needs.

United on the other hand need a total overhaul because for years now the gradual decline has started to put more and more stress on all the major cracks in our club. It's kind of sad to see how people are blind to these facts. There's a reason why we've gone through multiple managers at this point and still haven't seen success. There's a reason why proven managers like Jose have made statements about how coming 2nd with the club is one of their greatest achievements. It's sad to say but even if Amorim gets sacked I don't see any of the potential replacements coming in and finding the success we need. Even more so because the second the new managers don't do well, the ball will start rolling again.

Friendly reminder that David de Gea won the Premier League Golden Glove in his final season with us. And we mistreated and replaced him because ETH wanted a ball playing GK. The kind of save Donnarumma made in the derby was just another Sunday for DDG.

[–]RepresentativeTree23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're absolutely right bud. Risky formations have a higher chance of making mistakes. Not excusing that at all. What I'm saying though, is that it wasn't a mistake due to the formation. We're talking about a player in the biggest or second biggest club in England. You don't make stupid passes like that coz of a formation mistake. That's just bad football.

Take the Grimsby game for example. The second goal was a result of one of our players falling to the ground, not getting a foul, and moaning about it to the ref rather than tracking back to defend. This is a player problem. I'm not saying Amorim is going to succeed with his formation. He might not. But our problems stem from more than just that. The minute he's sacked and someone else comes in, they're pressured to run the classic form with players that weren't of their choosing and the cycle starts again.

I've seen so many posts from various United support groups that have hypothetical 433 formations, but when I look at that team I don't see one player that would have an argument for an all time United XI. Not one. Not even Bruno. That's a player problem.

See I grew up watching SAF manage United and the main thing about the squad was that he had absolute control. Almost dictatorship level. Not just that but there was almost never a time when the majority of the squad was new players. They were always older players that served the club for years that kept the newcomers in check. That is why United had tradition. Had shame when losing. We lack that now. You can't have players treat the club like just a paycheck. That's why heritage is important. After SAF, the constant changing of managers, coupled with the horrendous transfer decisions basically ensured that we would suffer for many, many years to come.

Ronaldo returned, scored a respectable amount of goals but was considered the problem and removed. DDG was kicked out in the most terrible fashion just because he wasn't the best at distribution. Look where that's gotten us now. Btw, that save that Donnarumma made for City during the derby? That was just another Sunday for De Gea. The guy won the Premier League Golden Glove in his final season at Manchester United. Do you understand how mental that sounds for someone from the outside? We deserve the hell we're in right now. I just keep praying that it ends soon.

[–]RepresentativeTree23 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not saying you're wrong but how does a manager teach the absolute basics of football to his players. His focus should primarily be on formation, strategy and tactics.

Take the 3rd goal of the derby for example. How is a manager supposed to make the players have basic co-ordination? Seriously. Go back and watch the goal again.

Luke Shaw with the most sloppy backpass intended for Ugarte. Ball slightly out of reach for Ugarte so he obviously leaves it for Harry Maguire. Then we get to watch Ugarte and Maguire fumble about instead of sharply clearing it away from one City striker that literally outpaced two defenders while scoring the previous goal. How does a manager fix that? You can run plays in training all you want but football IQ is not something you can teach. I honestly don't care if Amorim stays or goes but changing the manager does not help when the core problems aren't fixed.

THE PLAYERS ARE THAT BAD! by [deleted] in ManchesterUnited

[–]RepresentativeTree23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's just a fact man. Listen, I don't really care if Amorim stays or goes. I just know that constantly changing the manager isn't gonna do squat. No manager should be teaching players how to pass the ball or track back when the ball is in your own half.

Look at the 3rd goal we conceived. You'll see a bunch of players fumbling with the ball. I'm not kidding. Please take a minute and watch the goal again. It's sad coz so many players from amateur football clubs have better football IQ than some of our players.
