There's no way that can be true, it would be incredible. I reckon this story could have some truth in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) 10 minutes ago, Ben said: I reckon this story could have some truth in it Old Trafford does seem to have become a gathering point for some of Ratshit's old football mates down the years. Has a whiff of Mike Ashley about it, where Sir Jim seems to think he knows more about football than actual football people. I'm sure Southgate's a great guy, can't say I've ever been convinced there's a great football manager there. Man U just seems like the wrong job in every way possible.

Cf Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 49 minutes ago, Ben said: Potter linked with Man Utd, looks like Asworth has been doing some moonlighting during his gardening leave. I reckon he'd get the Chelsea treatment from the fans and be seen as someone who is beneath them and would end up under pressure quite quickly. Still though. Do a job for a few months and enjoy the payoff afterwards. Take a leaf out of his boss's book. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Think Potter would actually be a very good fit for them. Depends really on whether there’s a manager out there that can get rid of the toxicity. It’s been around for so long and I don’t know if you can get rid of it when the Glazers are still majority owners Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would never happen at us. Our fanbase as a whole is generally against sacking managers, rightly or wrongly. I wouldn't want Potter over Ten Hag, but I'd much rather him than Southgate. Until we have someone who can make the difficult decisions and not base team selection on how much the player is making per week, we're in trouble.
