      Newcastle and Spurs have got a injury crisis and Manchester United have always had a fully fit side since the start of the season.

      Look at what a few injuries does to a side.

        That ref will soon be officiating in the UAE pro league.

          I’m not surprised anymore.

          Pretty much sums up the Glazer ownership within the last decade. The players know that this will only end one way and it will be the same cycle all over the again. Get a new manager in, play well, get rewarded with lucrative new contract,then show next to no passion.

              Adlab, if United got a penalty like the 1 city got today, what would your reaction been?

                Game of the decade. Proper end to end stuff. Good watch for a neutral.

                  How do City keep getting these soft penalties?!

                      Anthony Taylor shouldn’t officiate City games considering he is from the same area as Manchester City fan Cole Palmer.

                        Ed-

                        I believe along the way he would make mistakes, especially in the transfer market. The Mount transfer gets stranger by the week. He doesn’t play him and probably doesn’t know where to play him. Difference is at United you cannot make a mistake when it comes to transfers, you always have to get it right, the club cannot afford to right off a poor transfer with another 1, until it pays off.

                        That is why Klopp has been a success at Liverpool, he got most of his transfers right. But he also had people around him to help him get them right, United do not have that.

                        It just seems like this summer the club covered in the correct positions that needed to be covered, but with the wrong players. I also believe he was heavily reliant on Maguire and McTominay leaving in order to buy a CB who plays the way he wants to play. It just didn’t happen.

                          Ajax lost so many big names who helped them be successful. The likes of Overmars, Van De Sar and Ten Hag all played a part getting that side back to the top in Dutch football. Look where they are now. This proves if you have the right people in place in the right areas at top clubs, you have a recipe for success.

                          At United, Ten Hag doesn’t have that luxury. You look at that side yesterday, how many players were his. 6 players were bought by the previous 3 manager. All 3 played a different brand of football to 1 another.

                          When Klopp won the CL on 2019, 9 of the players were bought by him. This rebuild is not going to take 15 months to fix. It will take years. You have to weed out the problems 1st and that is getting rid of toxic players.

                            Ancelotti does well with world class sides. Milan he had top quality players in every position and the same at Real Madrid. He falls in these positions at the right time too.

                            Would he do well with the current Milan side? He doesn’t have Kaka, Gattuso, Pirlo, Nesta, Maldini, Cafu.
                            Also remember his Madrid side got humiliated at City last season. If that happened at United, people would be calling for him to be sacked.

                            At United the problems is not solely down to the manager. There isn’t a structure in place for a manager to succeed. There isn’t a sporting direction at the club.

                              I mentioned earlier in relations with Manchester United, when you end up with injuries to key players, you end up relying on players who can hinder how you want to play.

                              Spurs have lost Madison and have lost 2 games in a row. Manchester City lost Rodri and lost a few. Manchester United have lost half a team and have not had a fully fit squad since the season started. People say it is a squad game, which is true, but your 2nd,3rd or 4th choice is never going to be as good as your 1st choice.

                                United are in this position with 1 goal from their attacking players.

                                  Peps famous medical team was rejected by Bayern for dubious reasons because of the number of long term injuries Bayern players were having. He had a long term Bayern doctor pushed out.

                                    Wan Bissaka, Martinez, Shaw, Casemiro, Hojlund would be starters. Mainoo was also considered to play a part in the 1st team.

                                    Our squad today also had 5 players who also did not cost a penny and some are considered back up players. We are resorting to playing out 3rd choice players in some positions.

                                        In my opinion both Ferguson and Klopp status were not high when they arrived at Manchester United and Liverpool. They were under a lot of pressure to deliver. Ferguson made some brave decisions too. He got rid of Strachan and anyone else he felt was disruptive durin this early years. Same with Klopp when it came to Sakho.

                                          Not sure where this theory that Ten Hag is a poor man manager. Last season with Sancho disciplinary issues, he sent him away to get his act together and get his mind back in to football.

                                          After the Brentford loss last season, Ten Hag told the players they didn’t cover enough ground in comparison to Brentford. He then sent the players on a run to make up for the loss ground compared to Brentford. He joined in with them.

                                          Sancho literally has reverted back to his old ways and Ten Hag has had enough. How many chances does he expect to give Sancho. Ferguson got rid of quality players for less. So have Klopp and Pep.
