:cool: Evans has been very poor recently, a season long ban would have been fine by me. In the Sunderland game 50% of his passes went directly to the opposing side.:rolleyes:

Personally I don't think he intended to spit at Cisse, players sadly spit out all the time and I think it was just an inbuilt habit.

Ref was a joke, Di Maria went down but it wasn't a dive, it was right in front of me. United had shaded the first half. Unless Shaw and Herrera had knocks it was plain stupid to sub them both at half time with two players just back from lengthy lay offs. Totally disrupted their rhythm.

It was a dive. Just don't think it was a dive worthy of a yellow. Now Januzaj was a dive. It was the diving-most dive that ever dived. If that was a diving competition he would be banned for over diving.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
 
The closest thing to a realistic target I’d be happy with right now is Pep Guardiola, our only chance with him is his close relationship with SAF and the promise of a large transfer budget.

Unrealistically-wise I have to say the only other manager I’d have confidence in is Mourinho.

With the challenge of making United great again with a large transfer budget I reckon Pep could be tempted.

It would take a MASSIVE falling out from Chelsea for Mourinho to take over. He's the only other quality qualified manager in the PL.

Seems a tad hopeful. I think Ancelotti might be a good bet. Having trouble at Real Madrid and probably wouldn't be too hard to attract at the end of the season. Good manager, good CV, Premier League experience.

Russ 10-03-2015 13:37

Re: Football Season 2014/15
 
That's why I've not suggested either are exactly realistic, Pep being slightly more though. To be a successful manager at United I think the right man needs (other than what you've suggested) is a massive ego and an arrogant streak a mile wide. Not saying any of those are good things but part of United's strength in the past was the swagger and mind games even before the teams were on the pitch. The problem with LVG is he is egotisti and arrogant enough but unproven in the PL

Pep could get a good insight from his friendship with SAF but who knows. Ancelotti is a potential but let's see what happens in the summer.

Shadow Demon UK 10-03-2015 14:25

Re: Football Season 2014/15
 
Changing the manager every year is going to get the club nowhere. Van Gaal needs another season minimum, it would be completely ridiculous to get rid of him at the end of the season, even if he doesn't get top 4.

Russ 10-03-2015 14:59

Re: Football Season 2014/15
 
I'm not quite at the 'LVG Out' stage yet but I'm having my doubts as I'm not seeing anything yet so far that impresses me.

The last thing I want is United to become a laughing stock in terms of City and Chelsea where managers come and go every few months. But I'm not convinced he's the right man, I hope to be proven wrong.

The simple fact is if he does not make the top 4 the money men at the top will demanding why just like they did when Moyes failed to make the top four and we know what happened to him.

Pep at Bayern Munich began on a total high until he was brought back down to earth by demands he didn't change the club and instead adapt. Similar calls were made to Moyes. Similar calls made to LVG?

DNA of winning? The style of play United are used to isn't there at the moment but for me thats because he is setting up not to lose matches, mainly because of our poor defence and key players not performing (RVP, Falcao, Di Maria). Thats why he should be given another season. Sort the defence out, get the attacking players on form and the better style of play will follow.

I agree to a point, but i think Moyes had lost the dressing room. Half the players didn't want to play for him. Theres a much better team spirit now which will help in the long run. I'm not sure if it was more stressful for Moyes, he got a team that just won the league rather than finished 7th. You have to remember a lot of the money spent under LVG were signings the club had already agreed before he arrived.

How is it arrogant? Its fact. The club has been used to winning trophies for the past 20 years. Its what the club, fans, media, everyone expects the new manager to do and its how he will be evaluated at the end of the season.

thenry 10-03-2015 20:12

Re: Football Season 2014/15
 
Manchester United have been around longer than 20 years. There have been periods in which they won naff all. The point I was making on the DNA front was playing style, the fear. What amazed me most looking at Man Utd yesterday was LVG has changed things to a state where Man Utd didn't even turn up for a match vs Arsenal which is unthinkable. Arsenal deserve credit for the win but there is no getting away from the fact Man Utd didn't turn up. That says a lot. 3 points for Man Utd at The Emirates in the league was unconvincing, Arsenals own bullcrap failings.

Man Utd have a style of play in its DNA. It will be extremely difficult to pull away from it. You can talk of reinforcements all you like. It is a bit like Wenger trying to prove his square peg round hole game works when it doesn't no matter who he buys. Football doesn't have to be a complicated game. Making unnecessary changes is shooting yourself in the foot.

Yes and i'm one of those that realises that, i don't think we have a given right to win trophies which is why I think he should be given time, as I did Moyes. I thought we did ok in the first half last night. Both goals we gave away were poor individual mistakes by us, especially the second goal, goals which were easily avoidable. Like i said, sort our defence and i think the playing style will improve a lot.

Moyes has zero experience at the level required at United and not once did he comes across as being big enough for the role. Put simply the job was too much for him. Sure give him a team like Everton and he'll get them in to europe a few times but win anything? Not a hope.

All the goals were individual mistakes.

I wouldn't hold my breath on the reinforcement front. With or without them the flaws will be there.

I always wonder how the psychology of success impacts upon a team. That's really what we're talking about when using the term 'DNA of winning' I think, a team which is used to winning.

Is it about confidence in the dressing room that helps them dig in at key moments, take that audacious shot, make that ambitious pass, run that extra mile? I would say that exists. I think we can all empathise with the notion of confidence helping us to achieve more and a lack of confidence undermining us. Then you have the fact that success generates more revenue which allows you to buy better players attracted by the success which allows you to win even more.

On the other hand I don't think it's really something that exists deep within a club that cannot be lost. Look at Liverpool who could have been said to have that 'DNA' before it abandoned them in 1989 and is yet to really return. The current United team do not have to arrogance and confidence they had previously. The famous 'ability to win' seems to have been lost somewhat. United's spending power means this won't last and they won't do a Liverpool but still.

Depending on how long this 'drought' lasts spending power could decrease.

They do have the new sponsorship deals though so they should balance out vs other teams although there is no getting around a loss of CL money which will have an impact on them not being able to flex as much in the window.

That's a shocking result, to lead twice against 10 men and still lose is appalling. Chelsea were probably the last hope in the Premier League regaining some credit but dear me English teams have done it little justice this year. Arsenal going out to Monaco and not a single English team in the quarters. Still back arsenal over city. What are the odds on the two English teams left making the last 8 having both shipped heavy away goals.

Zlatans pulled his feet out of that challenge but I still wouldn't like two knees or shins lunging at my leg like that, red card was justified for me.

Didn't even think it was a yellow for Ibrahimovic, if anything it was a foul on him by Oscar. Shocking decision. Maybe every single outfield Chelsea player surrounding the ref after it happened had something to do with his decision...

Has to be one of the worst performances by Chelsea under Mourinho, they looked utterly hopeless for most of the match and watching it you would never have guessed they were against 10 men for most of it.

Yeah you're right. I seen the challenge through a Reddit gif that having seen the original this morning it's clear it was sped up. Normal speed and there's nothing there bar and Oscar performance from Oscar.

Maybe because you have a racist person who sleeps with any female with a pulse, players who like diving and acting like <insert swear words here>, surrounding the referee and forcing him to send players off and just generally being a bunch of arrogant <insert swear words here>.

Apologies for that rant, needed to vent some frustration from the last few days. *and breathe.*

That we make you feel like this gives me great joy. Cheers!

United losing today would mean their season is over IMO. Major questions will need to be asked about LVG.

Even if you lose today you are still well in the hunt for a CL place.

The title is still going to Stamford Bridge one would say even after this hiccup.

The only way Chelsea wouldn't win the title is if Moyes took over.

Well it looks like the much maligned mophead has come to United's rescue.

Didn't see that coming. Still, happy with the result. Might be the last time we'll have something to smile about for a month or so.

On the tram home from OT. First half was the best United have played for two seasons.��

It was like watching a Fergie United side in the first half, finally some pace in our passing/play. Hopefully it will continue.

Club statement

Club parts company with head coach.

Sunderland AFC have parted company with head coach Gus Poyet this afternoon.

The club would like to place on record its’ thanks to Gus and wishes him well for the future.

Chairman Ellis Short said: “I would like to thank Gus for his endeavours during his time at the club, in particular last season’s ‘great escape’ and cup final appearance, which will live long in the memory of every Sunderland fan.

“Sadly, we have not made the progress that any of us had hoped for this season and we find ourselves battling, once again, at the wrong end of the table. We have therefore made the difficult decision that a change is needed.”

An announcement will be made in due course regarding the head coach position.

Davide Santon has made his deal at inter milan permanent. Months after he refuses to leave Newcastle, he's given the boot for a tiny £2.5m. Asset stripping at it's finest for one of the most promising LB's in the league. A board making as much as they can before shipping off to Rangers.

Well if we keep playing like this its going to be a cakewalk for United on Sunday.:(

I actually feel a bit sorry for him, but putting all his eggs in the Defoe basket was always going to be a mistake.

As a man I have a lot of time for him. I was sat behind the away dug out for a 3 nil win over Brighton - he took the banter with great humour and I also think he did a very good job there. They'd be in the Premier League now if it wasn't for Zaha.
