Red cafe is entertaining 

Still backing Brexit Jim’s not so slow cannibalisation of the club? The guy is more slippery than a tub of Ineos lubricant.

A Phillipe Albert endorsed post. Absolutely glorious.

@Froggy check?

[Ben]

These poor souls, absolutely don't deserve this, biggest club in the world ya kna 

[Dokko]

Another clean sheet for the golden glove winner.

[KaKa]

All the money in the world spent and so little to show for it.

 

It's just so immensely satisfying.

 

There's a deep rot that has set in at the club that will take some sorting.

 

They keep looking for individuals to throw under the bus, but it's so much more than that.

For all the money they've spent, who are their genuine class players? Not even world class, but just players that would walk into lost teams? Mazroui looks good, and Bruno F is still a good player, beyond them two though? I'm struggling to think of anyone that would get a spot even in our first XI.

It's astonishing. Crazy amounts of money thrown away.

Every '90s British classroom had some wanksock who supported Man U because "I like the way they play", hope they still like it.

Fake Brino is good on his day, but is so inconsistent that you can’t call him class, or even good anymore.

Froggy will make our as if he’s one of the best in the Premier League though.

[Sibierski]

Amorim will get a lot of leeway because he talks well and he’s got people buying into his narrative of “We will be proper shit before we are good”. Which is all well and good, but if the proper shit goes all way to end of seasons, at what point do you go “Is the good actually coming?”

I was looking at the Man United XI from today, comparing it against ours earlier, and I came up with the following:

 

Bruno Fernandes 

Andre Onana

Kobbie Mainoo

Amad Diallo.

 

The last two are very very debatable and on current form wouldn't have a hope in hell of getting in, but given they're both young and the potential of both players gets them ahead of Joelinton and Murphy, Onana as hilariously calamitous as he can be, is a good keeper and better than Pope, and Bruno Fernandes is their only World Class player.

Merry Christmas.

Absolutely no fucking way do I take Onana ahead of Pope like, and I'm far from Pope's biggest fan

It's amazing. The season before our takeover they finished 2nd. Since then they've spent in the region of £500m (net) and this is what they've got to show for it.

[Cronky]

I can't see things getting sorted out any time soon. They have a fan in charge of the football side, and he's made a bad choice of manager. I don't think they've got much money to spend, and they look a bad proposition for any player who is good enough to have other options.

Is this a joke? 

 

Fake Bruno is OK, but definitely doesn't fit as a LCM for us, so that's a no

 

Onana is crap, no need to expand on that

 

Mainoo would be in and around Miley and longstaff, and I'm not even sure he's much better than them, if at all. He's not even remotely close to either Joe

 

Diallo where has this hype come from?? He's mainly rubbish and had a decent moment now and again. Murphy as frustrating as he can be giving  the ball away, Daillo does the same and is less of a threat. Would rather take Garnacho. 

[The College Dropout]

They let Ten Hag ruin what was a decent squad under Ole. 
 

Solid back 5 + McFred then 4 killers up top was great for them.   

[David Edgar]

Fake Bruno is actually an incredibly talented footballer who would instantly become one of our most important players in the out-there hypothetical that we signed him.

He wouldn't get sent off constantly playing in a more organised, competitive side. So we wouldn't need to worry about that. Also seems that he is actually a good egg off the pitch.

[ikri]

What Man Utd are experiencing now should be a warning for any team wanting to join a breakaway league.  You may be a big team right now but once you're in a league with 17 other big teams you may just end up as one of the whipping boys for the really big teams.

[David Edgar]

Amad Diallo though, massively overrated. Looked like the worst winger on the pitch against Bournemouth. 

 

Mainoo has got potential, but is being overused to his detriment.

 

Onana is low-key genuinely a good player, but has way too many clangers in his locker.

 

I'm taking Dalot in this hypothetical. He's quality.
