    Man-U

    Anyone see the game tonight? I know Liverpool are class but they could have at least run around and tried to put a tackle in now and then. Considering what they're earning and they're supposed to be trying to make the top 4 i thought they were a disgrace.

    Really hope we don't end up like that, a team full of over-paid players who look like they couldn't give a sh!t

    They've been terribly run since they got rid of Ferguson.

    ^^ This.

    Implosion under their mountain of debt, relegation (just for one season :-) )and a bit of humility would go a long way.

    That would describe five out of six of the so-called top six Prem Darlings.

    Gary Neville made a good point by saying Man-U had elevated players over the managers (Alexis Sanchez piano introduction video / Pogba fanfare, Ronaldo etc) whereas at City and Liverpool the managers are the main man.

    Hopefully Eddie will have clocked this and whilst we'll still be buying quality players that are exciting hopefully they'll know their place at the club from the off and what's expected of them

    In Eddie we seem to have a manager with good people skills, who can motivate players and is generally a good man manager. He's shown that at all levels during his time at Bournemouth by improving players and since he joined us. It's priceless

    That is a good point. When I think of city or the dippers, pep and Klopp come to mind. Ragnick doesn’t when you think about ManU.

    The only thing that comes to my mind is binging on debt.

    They've gone for player rather than manager since Fergie left.

    Whoever they get has to come in and be bigger than the players, they also need to do a large clear out and be given time, at least 2 or 3 seasons by the owners to bed their style in and players.

    But if it doesn't happen. . . .Oh dear, how sad. . . Never mind.
