Surely that's humiliation enough as that would be their lowest finish since the mid 1980s. Can also see Man. City beating them more comfortably in the cup final than last year, probably a 3-0 or 4-1 job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke313 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I noticed that Onana got booked in the shootout, and the commentator said he wouldn't be suspended for the final. Any reason why Martinez has been in that case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Mourinho has come out and said is some players still at United that he wanted rid of 5 years ago. Am guessing Shaw is one of them, probably Martial Shows how bad the club has been ran that them two have been at United nearly a decade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony did **** all. He didn't even take a penalty. And he's giving it large It's not that he shouldn't do it, it's just really really cringe that he did I've had it pointed out that Anthony didn't just do nothing, it was actually 3-0 when he came on So he's helped throw away a 3 goal lead, scraped through on a penalty shoot out in which he didn't contribute, and then given it large to a team a division below What a word removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most United fans would say he’s one of their better players. Injured again this year (he is obviously injury prone) but last year he was very good in my opinion. He’s England’s best LB - so not sure why it’s a massive issue / a reflection on how bad United have been run. They’ve clearly been run horrendously - but it’s more their record signings, than being unable to get rid of Shaw/Martial. Pogba £105m, Anthony £95m, Maguire £87m, Sancho £85m, Lukaku £85m, Di Maria £75m, Casemiro £70m, Mount £65m… Of their signings £50m+, only really Bruno (and potentially Hojlund) are worth what they paid. Compare that to Man City or Liverpool’s ‘big’ signings. Where it is near 80%-90% hit rates. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sort of spending on dross should see them facing bankruptcy or being well in the bottom half ala Everton. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any reason why Martinez has been in that case? Regardless of the competition, the only way to miss a Final is if you are sent off in the Semi-final (or the second leg of the semi final if its a two-legged affair). All football associations changed it when there was uproar about players missing finals because they accrued too many yellow cards throughout a tournament. Seemed like an unfair punishment so Fifa revised the world cup rules, and FA/Uefa either followed suit or were already set up that way. Onana playing doesn't exactly help then in the final anyway, I fully expect City to hammer them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAuthority Posted April 24 VT Supporter Share Posted April 24 I really, really want them to keep ETH and get relegated next season before going bankrupt and ceasing to exist forever. The Glazers then bulldoze Old Trafford and build a Center Parks or something equally as shit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moaning about people not recognising their achievement. Their achievement with the only victory of note coming against Liverpool in the Quarters in one of the 3 games where they've actually made any effort this season. Struggling to beat Newport and Coventry isn't exactly what Man United should be beating their chest about. They've fallen so much, and although I don't think ETH is to blame, I don't think he's the man to elevate them. They're toxic throughout, and it's brilliant to see. Relegation would be lovely, but sadly can't see it happening, they make too much money. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
