Roy's not happy with the team at all.

We didn't just give up the players couldn't be arsed.
Start shipping them out.
I'm not enthused by Poch or ten Hag, but Tuchel to MU gives me a little stiffy.

At some point though, you also have to acknowledge that you simply cannot play football against this Atletico team with a referee like we saw today.
End of an era if that ends up being the case. Best ever Champions League player in history?

He'll be back at Juve with Pogba next season, or at PSG with Pogba.....

Might hit you up in August :o
I really think Ralf is being subconsciously undermined by being only referred to as "Interim Manager". Why not just call him the gaffer, on a short term deal?

i think it's a tough one given he was penciled in to take DOF role. By calling him interim, it implies he doesn't have enough time. Otherwise, a failed manager being made DOF starts to raise alarm bells.
The best thing Rolf has done is show the world how terrible these players are. The attitude stinks.

Poor management from the board and Woodward have destroyed this club

They are a very very good team. They remind me of watching Arsenal in our heyday 20 years ago, just the way it all clicks together like that sometimes.

The Club is not destroyed, it's become just another club where the fans are always looking to the next year hoping for improvement.

Clinging on to hypotheticals because your team is sharke, your interim manager is a fraud, your captain is a fridge, your best two midfielders are children, your hot prospect is a rapist and your club legend is off to Paris.
Three for me, and two for them.
about as unnecessary as leggy's response and claim regarding the invincible squad.
we get it Leggy, your team are struggling right now and you're frustrated, no need to lash out with hyperbole though.

Though Rooney has earned plaudits at Derby I believe l, for Luke Skywalker type efforts in a bleak situation.

I am a big fan of Arteta but people seem to forget he played a lot more games for Everton than he did for Arsenal

Laurent Blanc is not an ex-ManU player in that case, he's ex-Montpellier.

And yet somehow we're still competing for your prized 4th place! 😂 😂
Silly chat, anyway...
- Best part of game was Hannibal coming on and actually putting in a little bit of fight. If all 11 players showed a tiny bit of fight we would've at least been in with a chance.
- Priority number 1 for United is a mentally strong midfield core who, when the team is under pressure, aren't going to crumble. Some guys whose confidence is going to bleed off on others.
- How right was SAF about Paul Pogba. Scored some bangers in Serie A and looks decent when he's got one of the world's best (Kante) doing the work besides him, otherwise a total fraud
- Has any player dropped off like Rashford? From retiring Demichelis at the Etihad to literally falling over the ball when trying to dribble. Whisper it very quietly... maybe he should've focused on football?

I'm not clever enough to figure it out.

Haha - all true!! (though didn't know Phil Jones is going to Paris!)
Apart from Ralf being a fraud. I think he's very quickly identified what/who the problems are (i.e.: everything and everyone), which was his remit. He can't polish a turd, after all. He's as (more?) frustrated as anyone else with this shower of shark.
As for the Liverpool of now vs the Invincibles quip - I agree. From memory, the Invincibles drew a lot of games, I think modern-day Liverpool or Man City would have them on toast. Not as bad as we were destroyed, mind you. We're shark. But it's just an opinion.
I also think peak-City (KdB, Silva, Yaya, Kompany, Agueroooooooo) would run rings around current Liverpool, but that could also be my extreme anti-Scouser attitude coming out. I actually think peak-City would beat 1999-United, but not 2008-United. Who knows. Who cares.
Not to mention Elanga's shout - who beats his defender, has his arm pulled back, then shoulder grabbed - doesn't get a look...
Or old mate who got beaten by Sancho and just fell to the ground and stopped the ball with his arm...

mate your dreaming if you think that first pen wasnt one, clear foul all day, looked to me like Arteta was appealing for Nketiahs goal not to be ruled out.
Elanga went down way to easily.
And the Sancho shout is probably a fair call.

... and as I type again Elanga is cynically grabbed and fouled again.
