    I said that as well, I think the initial reaction of the players was just the relief of Mourinho being sacked and probably more fun around the training and the games without the dour old * moaning and playing defensively.

    Under Solskjaer they've pretty much just played the same * only they won a lot to start with but the wheels have fell off and they're as bad as ever.

    Crazy how they gave him the job after PSG when that was 100% luck, they should never even have got the penalty and PSG should have buried them.

    It was a myth that he was going to build some sort of all out attacking team.

    His Molde team were a counter attacking team who sat and defended deep and tried to wait on oppposition mistakes.

    All the good teams of the last 6/7 years all have managers who play an exact style of football and buy players to fit it. Until Man U do that they will continue to be *, their squad is pish with players who don't suit playing with each other and they have no philosophy at all set up yet. They needed a Pochettino, Simeone, Klopp, Guardiola even Conte guy to come in and implement a certain style and clear out the squad for guys who fit it, for years now they've just signed players * nilly with no thought on what style of football they're trying to play.

    Who knows what they were planning with Solskjaer but a guy who's only managed Cardiff and Molde and not even well clearly wasn't the guy.

    They'd have been better with Rodgers.

    Solskjaer won’t be there come the 2020/21 season.

    They had a great new manager bounce. Drivel since then.

    Giving Solskjaer the job is bad enough.

    But the fact Woodward could call the shots with giving Smalling, Jones, Young all new deals because there’s no way Solskjaer would challenge anything because he would do anything for the job.

    Now they’ve gave Martial around 250k a week and on the verge of giving Rashford 300k a week.

    No direction at the club at all.

    Martial for them is worse than Sinclair for us. Scores about 10 goals a season and is a lazy * who can't beat a man or defend. They should have punted him a year or two ago, £250k a week and he's probably a bench player :52:

    Rashford as well is a decent player but he lacks ability on the ball, should be on nowhere near £300k a week that would make him a £100million+ player but he's just not that good. He's really not much different to a young Walcott, 10-15 goals a season, no real consistency and not really good enough to play up front. To cut it there he still has to go up 2 or 3 levels but I would doubt it as he just doesn't have the skill on the ball.

    Not been following the EPL but Neville just said Everton ran 4km more than Utd in the first half.

    He's raging, saying there are weeds in the club that need removing.

    @ILoveTheCeltic You're right about Rashford, if he had a better first touch Utd could've went ahead in the Nou Camp in the first few minutes but he hit the bar, got to keep the ball low at that level. I mean he made a perfect run and received a great through ball.

    I like Neville when he does analysis but he’s the biggest flip flopper of them all when it comes to United.

    Every couple of weeks he’s changing his opinion on what’s the problem :56:
