Man Utd fans really twerking hard for Conte today
They're out here watching Chelsea season reviews
It's just proof that all they want is a name. Conte would be a disaster eventually. We'll be here in 18-24 months discussing who's going to replace him once he inevitably falls out with the board because they won't spend 20mil to bring back Darmian.

They basically have the players for him to play 3142/343 straight away. Unless he goes back to wanting to try 433 a again. As Conte hasn't really pulled up any trees in the CL with his 3 at the back.

I disagree on Ronaldo. If he was leaving directly from Manchester United to a rival club I would understand not allowing that but he is two clubs removed from United. And since leaving he's never shown much love for the club, if he did ever say anything nice it was mostly reserved for SAF.
How do you go from chasing a midfielder, Camavinga, for 3 months to signing Ronaldo because 80-year old Fergie and Glazers, eager for any good publicity, urge you to. What kind of transfer policy and club philosophy is that?
I feel like it's common sense that if a 36-year old player is too much of a burden on Juventus in Serie A (where ancient strikers like Luca Toni, Quagliarella, Dzeko and countless others thrive) then it won't work out so well in PL with a McFred midfield. And even if you just look at EUROs you can see that Bruno and even Jota looked pretty bad with Ronaldo as a focal point.

Were Manchester United. Signing Ronaldo does not hinder us from signing a CM or two. Only the owners being tightwads and not understanding ball, stops us from doing that. Ronaldo sells shirts and tickets it’s a no brainer to them. Ronaldo is just an easy scapegoat for folks
we couldn’t press for shyt before him but suddenly it’s all his fault. Folks are just looking for simple answers.

I also don't want to single out or scapegoat any players even though they deserve to but its so funny to me to read that Fred made zero tackles the whole match yesterday. Zero.

"Ole philosophy".
Ole agreed to them and IIRC said '"this is the best squad since 1999".
If Ole could not see from the jump the problems in getting VdB, Sancho types players playing with AWB, Maguire type players in a unified whole then that is on him.

Lukaku threw relative shade at Ole after he went to Inter. Bigging up Conte's achievements being decisive in him joining Inter.
3 at the back as our main formation?They basically have the players for him to play 3142/343 straight away. Unless he goes back to wanting to try 433 a again. As Conte hasn't really pulled up any trees in the CL with his 3 at the back.

Wouldn't surprise me if he's low on confidence. There's definitely a player there who can contribute in the right system/team.I also don't want to single out or scapegoat any players even though they deserve to but its so funny to me to read that Fred made zero tackles the whole match yesterday. Zero.

Neville panicking.
that is not why "people are criticising him". they are criticising the under-handed manner in which he is acting.
lying to people to justify his Mates FC position is bound to annoy some fans
if GNev2 said "I support Ole even though he isn't good enough because he is my mate" and stopped with the excuse making the fans would leave him alone and his Sky contract and reputation might take a hit. The excuse making over the last couple of years is what people find hard to stomach.
