If you have to ask this, you've not been paying enough attention to have an opinion.

Why do people think dropping Rashford is some masterstroke? He's just the latest string of players that's been made a scapegoat.

 

He's been poor for ages outside that one season which got him the new deal but has still been a mainstay as a starter under every manager. I think it's clearly a positive sign that Amorim doesn't feel he's obliged to start him due to his mega contract and local kid status but is ready to instantly get rid of him (which won't be easy with that wage).

He’s taken over management of a squad that was signed for millions of billions and is paid billions

 

They’ve won 2 trophies in last 2 seasons 

 

They’re also exempt from PSR rules

 

So he crouches on the touchline with a face like a slapped arse and says it’ll take him ages to fix them because the players are shite

 

Bad workman blaming his tools methinks

And their performances haven’t even been as bad as the results.

 

Understat's expected points has them a smidgen above us. Man U are shooting somewhere between 5 and 7 below xG depending on the model. Bournemouth are massively below, but that's what you'd expect for a team with inexpensive players.

 

Here's hoping the reversion to the mean is not tomorrow. All I'll say is that we should be going into it with a lot of confidence.

When did kicking a ball into a net become algebra ?

The expected points thing was hurled in my direction every weekend under Ten Hag.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again

 

xG is for blokes who always go home alone after a night out and have a tug in their bedroom at their mams house whilst consoling themselves by thinking of all the lasses they believe they could have shagged

That is a very specific scenario

Yes I've said similar earlier. Is the Man Utd squad worse than the ones Howe and Emery took over?

So what’s the reason? All people say is “Because his attitude stinks / performances crap”. 
 

Like, so are 90% of rest of the team? Yet some experienced guys such as Martinez get a free pass for a stinky performance after stinky performance. 
 

Get the reason to probably wanting to move him on as he’s getting to last window to get a fee and Garnacho is the future, but the way the fans are lapping up the Amorim stance is weird. Been the same for many many more players before Rashford when a manager has taken a stance and nothing has changed :D

Not even close to it. 

 

This is a great point and will used when anyone says give him time to me going forwards

Someone needs to list all the needless cost cutting things done since he's taken over. He's probably saved about 1% of the club's expenses.

No thanks, sounds like you're due a defeat!

Probably. Ha. The defeat was when Ramage damage teed up the Rooney screamer.
