Amorim has been sacked.
1.) 05 Jan 2026 11:06:44
He shouldn’t be the only one. Wilcox and berrada should be following him.
28 Aug 2025 17:59:12
Some stories floating around the Internet that Burnley will be Amorims last game in charge. He's walking away apparently.
Just passing on what I read. Likely a load of made up rubbish.
1.) 28 Aug 2025 18:59:27
It has come from his post match interview when he basically said that himself, not sure if it was just emotion talking though.
2.) 28 Aug 2025 21:01:56
No, it was Ruben Amorim, GDS. It was on tv and all, unless this emotion was impersonating him, and, as we all know, identity theft is not a joke.
3.) 28 Aug 2025 23:10:56
I thought Amorim was calling out his players for their attitude for not following their instructions.
I thought in the second half he bought on those he does trust to save the game.
I have heard/ read a lot of different takes on those words.
I think he's done because he's realised that we still need that open heart surgery and what he thought would happen this summer hasn't.
I didn't think we would go into this season with no midfield.
4.) 28 Aug 2025 23:19:34
Why is Amorim calling out his players? He selects them. It’s kind of obvious that several players believe that they are better than what they really are. Leave them out.
5.) 29 Aug 2025 00:15:27
Becsuse i dint think he expected to have the squad he did. We have clearly been after a DM and GK as well but we didn't think we would shift no one on.
He can only select from what he has i dknt think anyone thought qe would think this GK options and rhis midfield would be acceptable.
6.) 29 Aug 2025 09:10:22
Mourinho, Ruud, and Ole are now all available. I’d actually have Jose back, although would prefer to stick with Amorim, assuming he hasn’t lost all faith in the project.
7.) 29 Aug 2025 09:22:33
I think he's the kind of person who would walk away if he felt that the players weren't with him.
However, I don't think that will happen this weekend. I feel like his interviews after the Grimsby game had a lot of emotion in them, which will happen after a bad performance and result, at least it does if you care.
While Amorim's display of emotion was different, it's the same thing as when SAF would come out after a game angry (which often ended with a fine/ ban from the FA) . It's the emotions that hit immediately after and during games.
I suspect once that immediate spike in emotions has subsided and the brain starts to take back the wheel with logic I imagine Amorim's response will be very different.
What we need to do now is decide are we fans or are we supporters. We play a big role at our club, we can either get behind the team and the manager, try and be that 12th man on the pitch, help carry them when they are struggling so that the club can move forward. Or we can turn toxic, snipe and tear them down, dragging our club backwards.
We know how the latter turns out, we've seen it enough times over the past decade. Hopefully we've learned from our mistakes and we choose a different path now.
8.) 29 Aug 2025 11:43:00
‘He picks them’ is hilarious how quick we forget we had to fill the bench with kids last season or how bad we were, there is no one else to pick from. 3 windows turns into 3 matches ….
The top 4 could put out a 2nd team to challenge us, we can’t fill a first 11 with half decent players, never mind a bench. Bar 2 players the squad needed changing. It does highlight how Eth decimated the club though (they couldn’t play 4-3-3 either) . Give the new boys achance despite them senior management has failed miserably this window. (So far) i honestly believe we are only a couple of players away from a good side. We just have to get our heads down till we get there and get rid of those who aren’t bothered. it’s clear that every manager can see how weak our players are they get after us in the first half it’s piss easy. Having said that he should strengthen midfield in the first half. Once we go behind even Arsenal had eight men behind the ball. But are the players capable of that? A pub team would be able to play his formation by now which raises all types of questions.
02 Aug 2025 08:37:00
If reports this morning are to be believed, Sesko has chosen Newcastle.
Not sure the source is reliable. But being repeated by lots of "news" outlets.
1.) 02 Aug 2025 08:58:02
It all seems to track back to a Slovenian newspaper. No idea how reputable they are, but also can’t see what reason they’d have to lie. Will wait for Ornstein or some other reputable journo to confirm, but seems like we’ve missed out on another top striker.
2.) 02 Aug 2025 09:15:41
I think it's true so Liverpool have more chance of getting isak bloody klopp.
3.) 02 Aug 2025 10:47:17
Newcastle have made formal bid for Sesko. If Sesko wants them so be it. If he wants United we can’t dither, it’s cough up or wave another CF off. Newcastle have put their money on the table, up to Sesko. Usually you would think Newcastle would have had the nod from Sesko before putting a bid in, yet reports say he is interested in both.
We can’t hold out like we did with MBueno, it’s cough up now at the price or be frankly embarrassed.
Let’s be honest if Leipzig sell to Newcastle we aren’t likely to sell Hojland to them.
4.) 02 Aug 2025 10:53:39
Can’t see us beating Newcastle unless Sesko really doesn’t want to go there. We’re managing funds and Newcastle have had a shocker and could lose Isak. I recon they will go all in.
5.) 02 Aug 2025 11:15:36
Looking like no Sesko. Watkins isn’t for sale apparently.
Maybe no new striker this summer. Never mind.
Maybe Mbeuno can play up top with Cunha and Bruno in the 10’s. And then get a good midfielder instead.
6.) 02 Aug 2025 11:33:32
There will be lots of back and forth with this deal. The media are having a field day, it's a big fancy name player, who'll go for a large fee, is linked to United, and could be a pawn in the big Isak transfer news.
We will get so many angles on this over the next week or so that it'll have our heads spinning. Yesterday United were the favourites, today it's Newcastle, don't be surprised if it's United again tomorrow.
Best to just ignore everything until the clubs announce something.
{Ed025's Note - thats a bit of a short post for you Shappy...are you sure your account hasn,t been hacked mate.. :)
7.) 02 Aug 2025 13:09:47
Shappy
I don't think that's going to be the case here.
Newcastle put the money already, we either match or Sesko goes there.
8.) 02 Aug 2025 13:04:20
Ed025, Haha, it's just not a subject that's worth much of my time.
{Ed025's Note - i do like your posts Shappy...but i am 67 now and sometimes wonder if i will still be alive to finish some of them mate.. :)
9.) 02 Aug 2025 13:34:15
Logorrhea is a serious condition that other than by those who suffer from it little is said.
27 Jun 2025 20:46:58
Mbuemo bid rejected. £62.5m offer and Brentford said no.
I don't understand transfers, why don't they get in a room and negotiate the deal and then say yes or no in the room? Why waste weeks thinking about it, go back with an offer for them say no a second time?
Waste of time.
{Ed007's Note - It's called negotiating and probably is best done electronically so there is trail to keep any skullduggery out the equation, millionaire's negotiating million £ deals in person could get very dodgy.
But the surprising thing is that no matter what transfer - anywhere in the world it is - they still find the time to let a certain few ITK's know every single step of the process for their social medias - it's almost as if they just make stuff up and then delete the tweets. ?
1.) 27 Jun 2025 21:38:23
Brentford supposedly want the same fee as cunha or even slightly more. That second bid is £55m guaranteed with adds ons. Depends on the add ons but obviously Brentford not happy with them. I’d say they want £60m + guaranteed. Not much of a difference but probably take us another 4 weeks to get there lol.
2.) 27 Jun 2025 23:02:49
You either offer what they want or walk away and move into the next target. They have had a few weeks to sort it, what’s the problem.
3.) 27 Jun 2025 23:36:07
Completely new backroom staff and we’re still embarrassingly sluggish at this lark.
4.) 27 Jun 2025 23:42:53
I think he only has a year left on his contract. I know we don't want a repeat of last season but maybe we should ask him to keep the faith and sign him next year for free with a substantial signing on fee?
5.) 28 Jun 2025 01:17:15
Arty Stan, he has a year with an option for the club to extend by a year so essentially be has 2 years left on his contract for the purpose of negotiations.
6.) 28 Jun 2025 03:32:01
Fallguy, it's not that simple. These are big sums of money, and there are several parties involved. United don't want any more deals done in or out until 1st july.
Timing is crucial. Player sales are also needed and I'm sure we will see a lot of activity over the next 2 weeks both in and out.
From what I've read and listened to its not now about the sum offered i ts about making the add ons more achievable and a shorter payment structure. That will be resolved but will be dependent on what terms we can negotiate for our exits so the books balance every year.
A lot of intertwined and complex deals that are all independent but reliant on each other.
For example if we spend too much before we sell and rasford sancho and casimero hold the club to their contracts and don't move then we are in the world of trouble.
We could see in terms of the 1st team squad as many as 10 out and 5 in. It's a very fine balancing act and really difficult to get everything done. 3 outs done easy out of contract. Malacia Garnacho rashford sancho Anthony bayindir casimero are all in the 90% + category to leave and none of those deals will be easy to complete.
I've no doubt that the club are stalling due to timing and getting all aligned is super difficult.
7.) 28 Jun 2025 05:51:55
It’s tough to lose a player like Mbuemo, but constantly caving to pressure only sets a precedent—one that says your club can be pushed around. If the valuation is fair, then hold the line. Walk away if you have to. That sends a clear message: we know what our assets are worth, and we won’t be bullied.
Other clubs learn fast. If they see you stand firm once or twice, the lowballing and squeezing stops. It’s painful in the short term, but it’s how you build long-term respect in the market.
8.) 28 Jun 2025 08:53:01
Time to walk away. In all of his other seasons, he's performed roughly at the same level as his xG, which is under 10 goals a season.
This season, he's scored 8 goals above his xG, it doesn't guarantee he will repeat his efforts. We should stop overpaying for players who have one good season.
9.) 28 Jun 2025 09:06:53
It's not that complex, these things take time, the problem is we have an entire branch of the media dedicated to discussing transfers. Trying to give a blow by blow account (which of course they aren't actually privy to) . They need to fill the gaps in the time so often just make things up.
In the case of Mbeumo it's just a matter of time. He has one year left on his contract, so Brentford can either sell him this summer or lose him for free next summer (given their savvy transfer dealings I doubt they will let him leave for nothing) .
Mbeumo is Brentford's best and most important player, as such they want to get the best deal they can for him as they will need to buy a replacement and they will also likely have to pay more for that replacement as the selling club will know they have a big fee from United for Mbeumo burning a hole in Brentford's pocket.
That is why Brentford are trying to get a bidding war going for Mbeumo, they know they are at a disadvantage as he only has a year left on his deal. So the only way to get a higher fee is if there is competition for his signature.
Mbeumo has reportedly stated he is only interested in a move to United. That is probably something that has been agreed between United and his agent to put pressure on Brentford to get the deal done sooner and at a lower fee.
United could choose to wait this out, the closer we get to deadline day the more likely Brentford accept a lower fee to avoid losing him for nothing next summer. However, it doesn't seem like that is something United want to do. While they know they will have to pay more to get the deal done sooner, that is something they seem willing to accept despite the tricky financial position. The only advantage of getting the deal done sooner is that it gives him more time to settle and work with the manager to make sure he hits the ground running and United start the season well. It seems that with this deal at least United are putting football success on the pitch above saving a few million.
This deal will be done and likely finalised in the next week or so. I'd expect Mbeumo to be present on the first day back for pre-season.
My advice for United fans, is largely ignore all the transfer gossip and "blow by blow" accounts. Especially if it's going to stress you out or cause you frustration. What will be will be, whether you know about it beforehand or not and regardless of whether you stress about it or not. So why bother letting it raise your blood pressure.
10.) 28 Jun 2025 09:41:25
Totally agree Shappy but it's likely a case of clubs knowing then can get a bit more out us. We probably should have settled Mbeumo first then signed Cunha. Brentford wouldn't have that power over us that they now have.
11.) 28 Jun 2025 10:48:59
Stan, maybe, but I'm not sure that would be worth it. Cunha was a deal that we could wrap up quickly and move on from giving us time to work on the many deals we have to sort both in and out of the club this summer.
Mbeumo was likely to be dragged out by Brentford regardless. Maybe we might have saved a few million, or got slightly more favourable terms on when the money is paid. But then we would have lost time on being able to negotiate other deals. Likewise, if we signed Mbeumo first then Wolves would have had grounds to demand better terms on the Cunha deal. While he had a set release fee, they typically have to paid all up front. United agreed a deal with Wolves to have a payment structure spread over several years.
It could have been a case where we save a few million on Mbeumo, but end up worse off having to pay out 10-20m more this summer to get Cunha rather than it being spread out more.
The total fee paid is probably less important to us this summer than the terms of when we have to make the payments and how big those payments are. Given our current financial position cashflow is the thing that will make or break our transfer window.
12.) 28 Jun 2025 14:34:09
I'm with Kurtis, he had a great season, but that's his only great season, his stats last year are freaky. It's a lot of money for 1 great season.
13.) 28 Jun 2025 15:17:14
He also has two good seasons before, and you also have to take into account that he is just getting into his best footballing years.
14.) 28 Jun 2025 16:48:12
Ajh for a person that promotes hating the club i'm surprised you care either way.
15.) 28 Jun 2025 17:12:59
Ken ?
Is there not an empty room you can go start an argument in?
16.) 29 Jun 2025 10:59:31
AJH, last season was a standout season for him without a doubt, but he has been excellent for Brentford for several years now.
He massively over achieved against his xG last season, which he is unlikely to do so to the same extent again. However, the best players tend to outperform their xG on a consistent basis. Maybe he benefitted from Toney leaving and relished the responsibility of being the main man. Stepping up and taking shots with lower xG values and actually scoring from them.
He's a player who is EPL proven, has consistently got 15+ goals and assists over the last few seasons in the EPL. Personally I'd say only Salah and Saka have been better players from the RW over the past three years in the EPL.
Yes it's a lot of money, especially given he has one year left on his deal (although Brentford have one year option they can trigger) . Yet around 60m for one of the top three players in the league in his position, as he starts to enter his peak years is probably a fair amount given the context of the market.
Chelsea are about to pay a similar amount for an unproven young English lad from Dortmund. A player with only 18 months of senior football under his belt and not a single minute of EPL football to his name.
If you were going to place £100 bet on which player will get the most goals and assists in the EPL next season between Mbeumo and Gittens I'd expect the majority of football fans wouldn't be backing the young Englishman.
17.) 01 Jul 2025 02:04:54
Snappy you also bet United would finish above Chelsea, not sure your bets are trust worthy ?.
11 Jun 2025 15:51:27
Things seems to be getting a little heated with Gyokeres. Reports that sporting are denying any agreement to let him leave for a lower fee. And also reports that the player is refusing to play for them again and won't return for preseason.
Interesting. Not sure I like it when a player threatens going on strike.
Have to wait and see what happens next.
1.) 11 Jun 2025 16:55:44
A 'gentleman's agreement' always seems silly, especially in a situation involving tens of millions of £. They're going to accept less just to be nice? What's the point in a release clause if there's a sidenote saying you might be allowed to go for less? I suspect the agent has realised he's not going to get as much out of it as he first thought.
2.) 11 Jun 2025 17:35:03
I think Gyokeres will end up staying at Sporting.
The club, player and agent are likely to price him out of a move.
Any move is likely to be the last big move for the player, so he and his agent will likely want to milk every penny from it. Add that to the higher transfer fee Sporting now want, it could all mean the deal will be too expensive for the few clubs that are interested.
I read that United have a list of targets for striker, wonder who else is on the list?
3.) 11 Jun 2025 18:50:42
He maybe had the agreement verbally which both sides were happy with, so he worked his socks off and had a great season to try and get the best move possible. Now he turned into one of the best strikers in Europe last season, they have gone back on the agreement and now want more as they think he’s worth more.
4.) 11 Jun 2025 19:34:38
Is he really one of the best strikers in Europe! Yes he doing great there but is Portuguese league a measuring stick for best in EU….
I don’t see a queue knocking the door down for him, no Barca, no Madrid, no Bayern, No PSG, No City even Arsenal seemed to have backed away.
5.) 11 Jun 2025 20:46:02
Is he the best? No. Is he one of the best? Yes.
6.) 11 Jun 2025 22:12:00
Spenno, players get sold for less than their release fee all the time. In Spain and Portugal having a release clause is a legal requirement for all footballers contracts. To try and get around that clubs often have insanely high release clauses in place knowing that no one would ever pay that much.
It's not uncommon for clubs to agree with players and agents that they would sell for a set fee in some kind of gentlemen's agreement, which of course is not legally binding.
On one hand I understand the perspective of the Sporting chairman, if he's agreed to sell him for a certain fee, only for him to do very well and suddenly that fee looks very reasonable, possibly below market value. He won't want to sell a player that will be almost impossible not replace for a below market value price.
On the other hand refusing to do so is not a smart move if he wants to continue running the club without issues. If he's seen as a man who does not keep to his word then he'll find himself in a difficult position when trying to sign new players or negotiate new contracts for existing players. Why would they believe anything he said.
It all seems very strange and a uncomfortable situation. Clubs generally have a rough idea about how much a player will likely cost in terms of fees, agents fees and wages before they start making serious moves and start speaking directly to the club.
The fact United have had direct meetings with Sporting suggests that they were under the impression that they would accept a figure that they are comfortable with paying.
If that isn't the case then either they've been lied to by the players agent or Sporting are moving the goalposts. Looking at the way the player has reacted it seems more like the latter than the former.
I wonder why that is. Could it be that they believe they initially undervalued the player? Or have they found out that their potential replacements are more expensive than they thought? Or could it be that they have been annoyed when dealing with Manchester United, either by the way the club have negotiated or by the fact that the club seems to have plenty of money to spend on Cunha and Mbeumo, but have plead poverty to Sporting?
For some reason the Lisbon club seen to have moved the goalposts, and it will take some savvy negotiating by United and some backpedaling from Sporting to resolve this situation and get a deal in place, which looks like the best case scenario for both the clubs and the player right now.
7.) 11 Jun 2025 23:19:43
He did very well in the very physical end to end english championship. Which in theory would point to a high chance of being able to hack it in the EPL.
However so did mitrovic but he was never able to replicate his form in the championship when in the PL. So I get the doubt in some fans minds.
8.) 12 Jun 2025 08:52:19
I know Shappy lol. I was referring more to the notion of a 'gentleman's agreement' in anything.

Great performance. Great result. Some out of this world goals.
Arsenal are really boring to watch, all they seem to have is a few big guys and some good set piece takers. Hope they don’t win the league.
I really don’t want to out a dampener on things, but we’ve seen this team life themselves for the big games, especially when they can use counter attacks. What will really impress me is if the put in the same performance, fight and result against Fulham next week.
Fingers crossed this really is the start of something.
1.) 25 Jan 2026 19:54:48
I'll also want to see a handful of our next run of games before I judge Carrick. We have at some point turned, Arsenal, City and Liverpool over with most of our managers. The proper test is when we play teams that keep more men behind the ball. We can counter the big teams no problem. Our issue is playing with teams that counter on us.
2.) 25 Jan 2026 20:31:00
Great performance again today.
Great goals, great effort, great set up, great substitutions.
Lots of positives.
Hopefully dorgu won't be out for long.
I won't even consider the next manger until these 15 games are over.
All that matters is that we continue to ride this eve. Momentum and confidence are at an all time high the longer that bubble stays afloat the more robust it comes when they take a knock.
Heads down until the next game and move from there.
3.) 25 Jan 2026 23:33:34
This and more Ken. We cannot just Carrick and team on such a small sample. Obviously - and it should be bloody obvious - Carrick and co are focused mainly on setup right now rather than coaching. The majority of the coaching benefits from Amorim's team.
We need to see both how well we do against other styles of play, but also how organised we remain as the coaching becomes dominated by Carrick's group. I'm very encouraged so far.
13 Jan 2026 09:29:42
Carrick confirmed.
1.) 13 Jan 2026 10:08:32
Wishing him all the best. Hope he does well.
2.) 13 Jan 2026 11:09:41
I wish him all the best, but I have to say I'm somewhat underwhelmed.
3.) 13 Jan 2026 11:33:21
Very good call by Carrick to bring the experience of Steve Holland in alongside him.
Hope they do well.
4.) 13 Jan 2026 11:35:22
Holland to assist is a shrewd move to be fair.
5.) 13 Jan 2026 11:51:42
Whomever is the manager I will back. It's the least we as fans should do, and Carrick is coming in at a time when the club has committed a ridiculous act of self sabotage. The players most clearly are - by and large - still processing the whole thing. He has a lot of work to do.
6.) 13 Jan 2026 12:38:45
Very true Don. I’d be calling my agent every hour if I was a player there right now.
7.) 13 Jan 2026 12:40:26
Ken, that is a very underrated shout. Steve Holland has bags of experience. Very welcome appointment.
8.) 13 Jan 2026 13:55:21
Yes experience is good to have in the No2 role. SAF always had a good No2. As long as Holland doesn’t mean Southgate.
All the best to Carrick. However, really hope we don’t get the Carrick at the wheel, one of our own, must stay permanently nonsense.
Don, self sabotage is the correct description. Maybe given there is a little bit of certainty even only for a few months may help players focus better. Still there is no direction from up top. We have no idea on where they are going. That needs addressing.
9.) 13 Jan 2026 15:48:25
What if Carrick turns the ship around and we go on a run Red Man?
10.) 13 Jan 2026 17:09:06
Eric
What happened when we did that with Ole?
The club needs to define its path and what it wants, it needs a change manager, determined and with clear direction. Two so far since SaF and got rid of both. Carrick doesn’t appear a change manager to me.
11.) 13 Jan 2026 17:40:09
Again, Ole finished 3rd and 2nd with a bunch of players who didn't want to be here, in a very toxic environment. I'm not saying he's awesome, or that I wanted him back, but he's continually derided when for much of his time here, he did pretty well.
12.) 13 Jan 2026 17:43:16
Can anyone give some informations about Steve Holland?
13.) 13 Jan 2026 22:11:13
AJH
Part of the problem is that people only see the results in Ole coloured light, ignoring the run that got him sacked, they didn’t see the positive ethos building work SAF was doing behind the scenes between 86 to 90. Similarly they don’t see or don’t want to see the damage Ole did to the club, the psychology, the ethos was taken backwards. Ole did real damage.
Add to that it left fans utterly deluded, appointing him permanently with the main reason emotion. To be honest explained this time and again.
14.) 14 Jan 2026 12:47:39
Pretty well ??? the 1st manager since dave sexton to be here 2 full seasons and win nothing.
Big picture not the little picture ajh.
I still can't believe how the same people just look at part of the stats.
12 Jan 2026 18:02:24
Xabi Alonso for head coach anybody?
1.) 12 Jan 2026 18:34:47
You know what formation he's renowned for right.
2.) 12 Jan 2026 18:48:18
Absolutely. Busby played for City and for Liverpool. He's an excellent coach. Whether he'd swap one toxic environment for another is the question for him.
3.) 12 Jan 2026 19:29:57
Another young coach to ruin? I saw the odds have been slashed for Hoeness. Didn't we go in for him before?
4.) 12 Jan 2026 19:42:04
amorim ruined himself.
5.) 12 Jan 2026 20:07:30
We did Sepp. I posted here a couple of days ago that he's my favoured choice but then people got me thinking Luis Enrique might be possible! As I recall we went for him to succeed ETH in the summer before deciding on continuity, but he decided he needed to develop more.
6.) 12 Jan 2026 20:30:52
I’ve read that Vivell’s long term choice is Hoeness. But not sure they will take a gamble on another younger coach with no premier league experience.
I’d be ok giving him a go. Rather do that then go with Glasner, Tuchel or most of the other premier league experienced coaches being mentioned. Going with premier league experience does not guarantee anything.
7.) 12 Jan 2026 21:40:58
Fallguy there are only a couple of coaches i'd rather it not be tbh.
Other than southgate and however I am open to anybody at all with much reservation.
When it comes down to 2 or 3 names i'd be happy to pick my preference.
But at the moment any name brought up has just as good as chance as the next guy.
Im very indifferent at the moment.
The one thing i'm pretty sure of is that he will need time to build a team.

Just really hope it’s not Glasner who sadly seems to be the favourite.
If it was me, my shortlist would be in no particular order:
Alonso
Enrique
Nagelsmann
Xavi
Hoeness
And if you want premier league experience it would be Emery.

How about tuchel fallguy? I think he sorts the crap out still.

Not sure about Tuchel. He hasn’t blown me away for England. From what I remember at Chelsea he tends to play boring football, but it was a while ago so I could be wrong.
Doesn’t he have a habit of falling out with the higher ups?

How about Pep. He's leaving at the end of the season? After all we have everyone above him in already from Citeh.
11 Jan 2026 19:07:51
This team is going to get destroyed by city and Arsenal. It will not be pretty.

We say that a lot and then for some reason they put in a performance, the Jekyll and Hyde team.
2.) 11 Jan 2026 22:32:19
This team can't defend properly.

If we lose to Sunderland at the weekend, and let's face it, there's every chance we will lose. I honestly believe United will be in a serious danger of relegation.
Never thought that would happen in my lifetime.
Only chance of salvation is for somebody else to take control and get some life back into the players. These aren't relegation level players (on the whole, there are some poor ones) .

I mentioned this the other day. Some will say it’s nonsense, it’s too early…. in reality it isn’t. We’ve had over 30 league games of evidence now and we r in relegation form. Talk of ratcliffe giving RA the full season, if he does that then we r bang in trouble.

They will be no doubt but with the right person in charge they can be clear and challenging for a Europa spot.
3.) 29 Sep 2025 16:11:59
There are some decent players in squad, with the right manger decent CB pairing, probably Yoro and Deligt/ Heaven plus have to gamble the new keeper
Bruno in a number 10 or front 3 of Cunha/ Mbuemo/ Bruno with bringing in Sesko if any of them not performing, or Mount gives us plan A/ B
Cass/ Mainoo/ Ugarte must be able to shield Defence and create too.
4.) 29 Sep 2025 19:29:42
New coach should be playing something like this.
Lemmens
Maz
Yoro
De Ligt
Dalot (Dorgu is awful, could try Leon)
Ugarte/ Mainoo
Cas
Mbeumo
Bruno
Cunha
Sesko.

Rumour might gather pace if Bruno leaves. But still won’t happen.
24 Jan 2026 20:37:04
Agreed on no chance. He was a United fan as a kid, but that doesn’t mean much in modern football.
He has a really long contract too, so would cost a fortune.
I know he’s not been great for the last year, but why would Chelsea want to sell anyway?
05 Jan 2026 20:22:14
Hope it’s not tuchel, plays such boring football.
Needs to be someone that plays attacking football. I’m not an expert on the manager market so no clue who they will go for.
Glasner seems to be the favourite for the summer. But that’s more 3 at the back football. So not my choice.
I’d try and get Emery from Villla. Or maybe Xavi.
05 Jan 2026 11:40:03
Who we thinking for his long term replacement then?
I believe Glasner is the favourite.
23 Dec 2025 20:39:00
Rumours circulating that Semenyo has rejected United in favour of city. No idea how legit those rumours are. But thought I’d share.
19 Jan 2026 21:55:16
Arsenal are sadly an excellent team. They very rarely lose.
They will be far better than city. Wont leave acres of space at the back and will likely have 65%+ possession.
It will take a lot of luck and hard work to get away with anything.
But you never know. There’s always hope.
19 Jan 2026 21:50:03
I would stay clear of Baleba. He’s been shocking most of this season. Maybe if he was £30m, but not at the over inflated price Brighton will want. i'm sure there’s far better out there for that kind of money.
17 Jan 2026 11:54:49
No Ugarte, Cunha or Sesko.
14 Jan 2026 17:07:23
I’ll be surprised if it’s only 3 with the amount of attacking talent city have got! ?.
