Think the top 5 for UCL is done. Unless Villa finish 5th and win the Europa League.

Europa and Conference League race should be fun for the next 3 weeks.

I'll take that.

Amad has had a shocking season tbh. We definitely need another attacker this summer. maybe even 2 if Zirkzee leaves.
Poor decision from Lammens but he has otherwise been very good and hopefully he doesnt do anymore of those.

My boy Kobbie. :blessed:

I've not seen a United team play like this in 14+ years. Effectively pressing, aggressive with the ball, not being timid with passes. :francis:

Even when Ole had his run which got him the job they were not playing like this. You can tell they are being coached by an ex midfielder
I had this conversation with my friend a while ago. All the successful managers who played professionally, were either defenders or midfielders. It’s rare they were strikers.

Why? My theory is that defenders/midfielders have a different tactical understanding of the game. That’s not to take away from strikers but their game is based more on instinct (which is difficult and can’t be taught).

Unless somebody in here can prove me wrong, my theory applies to 90% of successful managers, if not more.
