yeah i dont doubt what mou said at all. i said it when he got fired that the players are the bigger problem. doing a "chelsea" and forcing your manager out by playing like shit is disgusting.
what i dont understand is how we had like 1 loss out of 19? or so games, make a historic cl comeback and have insanely good form only to forget how to do the basics and play like shit again literally the moment ole is confirmed. like wtf happened?

The historic CL comeback was all on PSG or have you forgotten when they won against Barca 4-0 and totally chocked afterwards?

Honestly that I don't get either. It just feels like the players just can't be bothered anymore since Ole got the job. It's so lethargic. They were riding a wave since the Mourinho sacking and just can't seem to bring it back since a couple losses.

psg choking or not, 3 goals at psg home from a deficit and making history in the cl for the first time is a huge morale boost. whether you deserved the win or not is a different story, but in football you dont always get what you deserve anyway.

It's not about deserving or not, it's about the wrong perception it gave about MU's level afterwards. They won 3-1 playing bad, but they celebrated it as if they won it on certain qualities (courage or whatever) that they actually don't have.

I said it when they confirmed Ole that it was a mistake to rush it, oh well. Now they at least need to give him a summer transfer window to try and show he can do it, but they're really going to need miracles signings, in and out, especially if they miss the CL.

Yeah because they are not getting top 4 either way

But yeah i guess that point needs readdressing after their defeat tomorrow vs Everton. If they win that game then i will stand corrected, but their fans are in a predicament lets put it that way.

Given this mornings events so far the odds I was basing my chances off seemed to have been quite off,,, surely they cant be this bad next week

Issue is as well that game is midweek this wednesday so in 72 hours time.

Also how on earth is Arsenal losing at home to Palace!
Oh 1-1 immediate response, Ozil with the goal.

Wijnaldum doesn't score too often, but almost every goal he scores is somehow vital. He has secured at least one top 4 finish and one 1-0 vs City with his goals on previous seasons. That's kind of impressive considering he has scored maybe 10 altogether over the last 3 seasons.

Lmao Arsenal losing as well, no one wants top four.

Also Arsenal are the weirdest team ever, play like crap away for months and suddenly keep 3 clean sheets in a row. You would expect them to beat Palace comfortable and somehow they concede 3.

well if you look at Arsenal's lineups the results are not weird at all

Today's lineup was just harakiri

United overperformed for a few months on expected goals and everyone loses their mind. In a league format form isn't that important in the long run and you usually don't overperform that long, then shit hit the fan. OGS United has not been way better than Mou's at any point. Just luckier/more realistic in front of old/DDG saving the day.

I have to say that Benzema has surprised me this year. He is the only Real Madrid player that has improved and is playing better than last season. And one of the few players with a good season in the team.

the psg game was a single game where they were really lucky. Good, too, but lucky. It was irrelevant. But setting a new team record (and this is manchester united) for most away wins in a row, going 14-2-1 in their first 17 games, following a 6-6-5 record in the previous 17 games before that (and it wasn't just luck, the overall performance during this period was vastly improved too), that is very significant. Maybe it was just the team pulling themselves together to show off to the new manager (and show disdain for mou), maybe ogs doesn't have what it takes, but like.. the improvement was massive and immediate - maybe the fact that it was so immediate should have been a tipoff that ogs didn't actually 'do' much though.

Looks like Chelsea and Burnley decided to keep the PL madness going. 2-2 already and less than 30 mins played.

Haha yeah, Chelsea season summed up in this game. When we take our chances and score, we ship goals for fun as we are all over the place defensively xd

Well Burnley getting relegated next season so that will cheer me up after that awful game, when will Sarri fkn learn man jesus.
