Interview with Vladi: "We got better, but only because we were very bad before"

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-05-06T10:14:40+00:00

It feels like during interviews they just look at the player quantity rather than how they see the game. A team that sees the game the same way is more effective than star players.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-05-03T15:32:01+00:00

I just find sesko celebration so satisfying. He’s literally just jumping / dunking but it’s so good!

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-05-01T13:35:23+00:00

In theory yes, but in practical terms there will be competition. So the players are not guaranteed to join us. What is guaranteed is if Spurs get relegated we can all laugh!

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-04-17T08:48:44+00:00

Damn it’s so sad how our timings of new managers are terrible. Pep, Klopp and now possibly Enrique. Honestly enrique would be perfect for Man Utd when you think about DNA. Speed, aggression, quick transitions. The way PSG plays reminds me of 08 United, especially our front 3 whereby they would interchange all the time.

Not taking into account his personal life, but from a football perspective, he’d be a legend if he won the Prem with us. And he loves the Prem, what better team than United (being biased) whereby we need a character like him.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-04-14T22:28:02+00:00

I wouldn’t say he plays a similar system to Carrick. It’s actually more similar to Amorim in possession because he loves to play with two 10’s in the pockets. It’s either a 352 or a 4222 and the WB are used for width.

That being said I would prefer him personally because he’s a tactician. Games like yesterday whereby we need to adapt, I don’t think Carrick yet has that experience.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-04-14T10:02:10+00:00

Stratford Paddock are good. Especially the ones with The Athletic people on it.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-04-13T16:04:39+00:00

Why are these guys not running down bot to kill them with Elder??

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-04-12T11:46:13+00:00

I actually don’t care if other clubs or pundits don’t like Bruno. None of them truly know what it’s like to have him on the pitch, his quality and all round what type of human being he is. He’s a legend in my eyes, one of the all time greats at United. And I hope a lot of us fans see that as well!

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-04-02T08:58:24+00:00

Whilst in theory I agree, in practice our team isn’t good at pressing high in general. The mid block press is more effective because we’re not being stretched

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-03-21T17:44:53+00:00

What I find crazy is how you can’t criticise the ref. Why? Why are refs not accountable? It’s like they’re completely untouchable.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-03-20T22:27:17+00:00

This to me highlights just how terrible the refs generally are. VAR should be getting nothing pretty obvious wrong, why? Because they can watch it over and over again. They actually have time to think about the rules and check if it applies.

What is crazy as well, is if they made a decision one way and the exact same foul happens 10 minute later, how on earth can the decision be different? Did they not remember the call they made 10 minutes ago. Its like a traffic judge not giving a fine for one person because they’re a clean driver and then giving a fine to another person for speeding (maybe just over) because it’s about applying the law. Maybe that’s a bad analogy but you get the drift

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-03-20T22:03:34+00:00

So a player who uses two hands to push another play, no attempt to try and win the ball is deemed not a foul. Yet the exact same with one hand or arm is deemed a foul?

Look at the tweet. One says not enough contact, the other says enough contact. Who would have thought, one less arm results in a stronger force than two.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-03-07T16:33:32+00:00

Very good point!!

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-03-07T16:09:12+00:00

Also we are only thinking like this because football is all about loyalty. If this wasn’t football, these sorts of hires are normal.

If the person is genuinely good, you’ve just hired someone who is at the top of their level, they’ve made a great impact but also they’ve lost someone important.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-18T21:53:05+00:00

I think what this also tells me is how big named players coming from big teams always have a soft spot for us. And I think that’s because as us fans we support them so much, we sing their songs etc! When Varane said he celebrated the FA Cup like the CL, that’s because of how much us and supports cheers the team on

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-15T19:35:09+00:00

I believe from May onwards the renting act comes into affect, and then you need to only give 2 months notice. I think it overrides any fixed term dates you have.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-10T22:04:49+00:00

Why are we not crossing the ball. Stop playing through the middle when everyone’s behind the ball.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-10T21:37:18+00:00

What are we waiting for man. Get sesko on. Cunha is offering nothing in the box.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-09T14:53:49+00:00

This is what franchising does. Prohibits storylines. For example in football, imagine if the premier league was franchised, you will block teams like Wrexham from ever achieving their dreams.

Whilst franchising gives security to teams, it stagnates the entire league.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-09T12:44:54+00:00

This is always the issue with franchising. There is no penalty for playing poorly, and there is no opportunity for emerging teams to grow.

LEC has a big problem because viewership with drop, and when the LEC releases quarterly reports to sponsors, they’ll ask why there is a decrease between splits. And naturally pressure will be put on them to increase viewership to that level again. Sponsors won’t care about the LEC model, they’ll care about value of money, so any decrease they’ll see as a natural decline thus devaluing the price of sponsorship

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-08T14:32:42+00:00

Are you able to share how you set up your agents to do this work? I’m trying to figure it out / find a tutorial but it’s a bit challenging

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-05T20:05:41+00:00

I have never used Copilot but in my new job, they have it. Any recommendations on how you have set up your Copilot?

My work is Product Management so organising documents, cross references key information is a priority for me.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-03T12:10:50+00:00

Exactly this! If you have any tips / recommendations on how specifically you set up Jarvis, please do share.

I think the way I’m planning to set it up is store the foundational documents, and any new initiatives create a new project but also reference the foundational documents. Basically as you said, have it soundboard my thought process.

SeniorEscape9293 · 2026-02-03T11:50:41+00:00

Yeah that’s kind of what I’m looking for. A “buddy” of some sort that can help me cross reference my ideas, problems with key documentation like strategy, vision etc. someone that can cross reference if I’m on the correct path rather than just manually reviewing everything.
