    Manchester United continue to flounder: no matter which manager comes in, they seem to struggle. Erik Ten Hag could turn things around yet, but the people behind the scenes are either willfully incompetent in the transfer market, or not given the freedom to sign who is necessary in order to compete with the best in the Premier League. The Glazers are letting United rot away, a shadow of itself, and no intent to sell unless their pockets are hurt.

    I'm an AC Milan fan, and for the past decade we've been the mirror team of man United in the Italian football, with one exception, they were the Club who has spent the most in transfers for the past decade while us, we were so broke we became the free agent players club.
    This shows how important the management is.
    Our current strategy is not the flashiest, but at least it is sustainable.

    Terminating Ralf Rangnick out of consultancy roles really put United into unnecessary risk this window, under inexperienced Richard Arnold+John Murtough United seemingly only handling one transfer at a times instead pursuing multiple target like barcelona. Theres also distrust between Manager and scouting teams hence why De Jong is still going without back up plan. If theres a proper head of recruitment United would already make a U-Turn and sign pl proven player like youri tielemans or ruben neves also proper DM like ibrahim sangare, etc.

    They've been rebuilding since 2013. If you are "rebuilding" it should insinuate that you are building towards something, like a coherent structure being built. The "archiects" at MANU build 10 levels of parking garages, put a roof on top of this structure and hire a wedding organizer to manage the garages. After a few years they decide it's not working and the wedding organizer is to blame. No problemo! Let's fire him and hire a hotel manager. Hotels are fancy, we're fancy. A match made in heaven! That will surely work! After 5 years the garages still aren't turning a profit and are starting to show their age. Let's tear them down and "rebuild" again.

    We should compare ManUtd's situation with Arsenal's situation now as they had near identical case at the beginning. As an Arsenal fan, I've always believe that Arsenal and ManUtd shared a common enemy, terrible American owner. Yet I was wrong (almost) about the Kroenkes and since gained full ownership, they have been backing up the club also given, Arteta and Edu almost full autonomy to operate. And unlike ManUtd with Ed Woodward, Arsenal chief executive Vinai Venkatesham never seems to be involve with football aspect of the club. The Kroenkes are still an absence figure at the Emirates but the animosity toward them slowly declining with Arsenal showing potential to challenge the big two.

    Hi Adrian, as a local Man Utd supporter, I just wanted to say thank you for this. The way you put it across there at the end is the way it needs to be said - those who run the club aren't looking to change. They literally do not care about the club itself, it is ONLY about money. I don't envy billionaires like them, I actually feel sorry for how far greed has corrupted their now-empty souls. It's been clear and obvious what's been happening for a long time now, but sadly it takes years and years before enough people board the bandwagon, even when you put the evidence right in their face. Hopefully the momentum will culminate in an uprising, but it's tragic that most fans need to suffer for so long and have their ever-renewing faith utterly trampled before enough people come together. Again, thank you for saying it how it is.

    In terms of rebuild I think Arsenal is a better example than PSG. PSG was never in a "crisis", they just spent money without a clear plan. Arsenal, at the time when Mikel Arteta took over, was a burning dumpster of a football club. If you look at Arteta's first XI and compare it to now you can see how far they have come.
    If I had to point out a key difference at Arsenal and Man Utd it would be the owners. Over the last 4 years my opinion of the Kroenkes shifted massively. They brought in a manager and a sporting director with a clear idea of what Arsenal should be and supported them all the way. While all the rival fans were mocking us they stuck with the manager and supported him not only in the transfer market but also internally. That's how we got rid of the players who contributed to a toxic atmosphere and replaced them with young, exciting players who trust in the manager's plan.
    As an Arsenal fan I find it sad how a club like Man Utd fell so low. The Wenger and Fergie rivalry was peak Premier League. Honestly I don't think it's going to change unless they get proper owners who actually care of the football club.

    • @RabonaTV
      @RabonaTV  Год назад +3

      You're right! Arsenal is a great example that Manchester United should absolutely follow. They've done an incredible job over there. As for the PSG comparison: I meant it more as in they identified a problem and made a major change swiftly because they have a hunger for success. The mentions of open heart surgery from Rangnick and "if everyone *_wants_* it" (wanting the change internally is the big thing) points to how those at PSG actually want to change, while those at United don't. Not so much the same situation, more the identification of a problem and a willingness to change (which doesn't exist at United). I may not have been clear enough there, my bad.

      I don't want to get too deep into a medical discussion but if PSG's case was like a "heart problem" then Man Utd is more like a malignant tumour with metastases.

    They're just throwing cash at problems that built up and developed over years. 95% of players got worse after joining this club.
    Even world class talent regressed in their development after their break-through.
    This club appears to be run like 8 year olds playing FIFA with their money cheat on. Instead of changing the environment they just sign new players for absurd fees to ruin them.
    McTominay wouldn't be in the starting line-up in at least half a dozen other PL Clubs, that's for sure, but he is also the only cdm in the squad.
    For one offensive midfield position they now have Fernandes, van de Beek and Eriksen, as well as 6 full backs who are all decent but without one being world class.
    To stabilize the team, and a certain overprized defender, I'd install a back 3, Douglas Luiz from Villa and Tielemans would be a good adition to the starting line-up. Both have the quality to help this team, without being predominantly "jersey movers" and their contracts run only 'til 2023.

    With people blaming maguire for everything wrong with united I just have one thing to say, have you seen him play for england?
    with a midfield of declan rice and kalvin phlillips infront of him, he looks like a completely different player
    in recent games (and in the past) we have seen maguire going off the defensive line and further forward which might be because he doesn’t trust the midfield to cover for them
    and i don’t care what people say about this but I think both sancho and rashford would be world-class in a well drilled system like man city or even spurs for that matter seeing how conte has completely transformed them
    and you using PSG was a great example along with that, the potential in growth with the change in hands of ownership can be seen when comparing to barca (president in their case) but the person up top needs to have the ambition and hunger for growth and success and above all love the club.

He had a discussion with the player of Montenegro and even he said that Arnies punishment at Euro 2020 was way to harsh and somehow no one is talking about the provocations Arnie had to endure. Sure what he did was still not right but the involved players discussed it and it shouldn't be a negative point against Arnie anymore. And of course he isn't fucking racist.

Anyway, Whitwell pointed out that a North Macedonian fan asked how signing him would clash with Man United's zero-tolerance approach to racism, he didn't say "a fan wrote to call Arnautovic a raging racist." But that, coupled with the Eredivisie instance (of which Arnautovic denied as well, it's a "his word against mine" situation) must have been enough to put United off. Perhaps thinking it's a "where there is smoke, there's fire" kind of thing, I don't know. That and Bologna telling them he is unsellable of course.😂

The thing is football has become much more sophisticated. Just buying the best players and putting them together is simply not enough to produce a winning team! Time has changed, the types of players today has changed (character, mentalities, etc). The formula to win has changed. In fact I suspect even Sir Alex managing Man U today would have issues with competing for the PL title with teams like City with the money, and tactical revolutionaries like Pep and Kloop in the PL.
