Doesn’t sound promising for us regarding sponsorships, not that they seem to be coming anyways. Wonder if this has any impact on stadium plans.

Fair point, he doesn’t fit into what I Howe’s style was.

Barnes isn’t exactly suited for Howe’s style either tbh.

Friday.

No one should be knighted for sporting reasons imo.

Knighted for what ?

I actually rate Frank (think he will be strongly linked here if Howe was to leave), not sure he’s the right man for Man Utd mind.

Hard to criticise the defence to much when they have our non existent midfield in front of them.

I’m not sure that person exists currently tbh.

Any idea on the compo to sack Ten Hag? Seen rumours it’s up to 18 million.

We could have looked at Cole Palmer, went for the same price. There where definitely other options out there.

Xavi apparently been in talks for a while.

Ironically none of them actually play there.

Not a chance with Ashworth there.

Hopefully we see some more of it over next couple of months. Got to be worth persisting with until January at least.

Aye, although I don’t think we signed him to be an impact sub. I just think Howe doesn’t know how to use him and Gordon in the same 11.

It’s not when you have a balanced squad. When you have more pressing positions to fill and have to be careful with funds I’d say it is.

Aye, which makes the signing all the more questionable in the first place.

With how long the club takes to do things, we may want to start interviewing now then if we want a replacement in by summer

I mean that’s not what I was saying, we have been shit for 12 months away from home. Any good manager should be able to make improvements to the issues we see week in week out. Fwiw he gave all of them new contracts as well.

I’m not saying sack him right now, but we need to see signs of improvement. You already mentioned one (the midfield), but there are others that need to improve as well.

On the away form/performances in general, I personally think he fell into the trap of thinking everything would just revert back to normal once the injuries cleared up. Obviously that hasn’t happened and he looks a bit lost and out of ideas imo.

He would have to show signs of improvement for him to earn that mind.
