Did Jack Rodwell just get Sunderland relegated with that miss?
Spurs v United is rather big now.
Downfall started with Martial miss. Fosu-Mensah then got injured and in the end got substituted for Darmian. I jokingly said to my brother then that we would do well to lose by less than 4 goals and then implosion started, 1,2,3 in short space of time. I guess I will be more careful in what I say next time.3-0 full time, what a shambles, first half was good enough but we just imploded in the second.
🤬🤬🤬!!!
That's the type of thing I say every year before Arsenal play Chelsea, Barcelona or Bayern.I jokingly said to my brother then that we would do well to lose by less than 4 goals and then implosion started, 1,2,3 in short space of time. I guess I will be more careful in what I say next time.
Spurs really dodged a bullet when LVG chose United over us.
Still though... Rodwell....
Van Gaal managed to play the entire front 4 out of position. Spurs weren't even that good today, it's just Darmian came on and had a shocker, there's no way United should be losing that 3-0.It's not just Van Gaal. There are quite a few injuries, and those who can play, play like a bunch of turds in a sewerpipe.

He also went full Facebook comment section in the interview by saying United are a bigger club.
Apparently, when he took over in 2014, United were the bigger challenge, with their unlimited bankroll and ability to sign world class players. And he really has made it look challenging, as he sits 15 points behind a Tottenham side that has ran at a profit, killed the toxic atmosphere at the club by weeding out experienced players who didn't want to work hard, reduced the average age to the youngest in the league, and funded the new stadium.
But I'm sure they'll get a win from some other faltering club that he can use to keep his un-justified ego and the fans can keep referring to him as a 'winner'.
Why do you want him to buy young players rather than experience players? No instant results and you are running a risk with potential also clubs are likely to charge big money or the player contract may already have a large buy out clause as young players who break through to the first team are now big assets to clubs.There really is no excuse anymore. You put any other "World Class" manager who's been in control of teams such as Munich and Barcelona in charge of Man Utd and give them virtually unlimited money and they'd at least be in the title race, probably still in UCL and most likely have at least won something by now.
Ideally I'd have given him a 5 year contract and told him to buy young players and rebuild from the bottom up but he's only interested in 3 years so there is no time for that.

LVG has already got the players but completely the wrong tactics. Constantly changing the formation and making players play out of their natural position.
When standing was allowed I'm guessing there was no such thing since there wasn't exactly a limit on how many people were allowed in. Other people here will no doubt know more than me about it.I wonder when ticket touting started. I wonder what the situation was like back in the day
