Fergie did have what you call a cold streak but he never treated players like kids. He rarely (if ever) let a player decline in the team, once a player started to slip his replacement was brought in at the first transfer window available the only two who never got to that stage were Neville and Cantona who both made the decision for them selves (Cantona on the pitch on the last day of the season and Neville at the half time break in a game). The only time Fergie broke this pattern was his last season when i firmly believe he wanted to save any money available for the new manager to spend on his own players. Just as an aside, Fergie leaving was not the sole reason for our decline. What people seem to forget is that at the exact same time 3/4rs of the title winning defence (Evra, Vidic and Ferdinand) also walked out leaving Moyes with an uphill climb to start with.
Betz4Bantz 22/23 Fosse/Haslam - Whose team will finish higher? Loser carries an avatar for 1 month and makes £10 donation to winner’s chosen charity Tel/Luv - Ronnie v Nunez…whoever scores the most wins - all comps.

Forfeit 6 months avi/username Dier/Bob - Chelsea/Spurs, whoever finishes highest, loser carries avi for 3 months G4E/Spurlock - Whoever finishes highest. I lose avi for 1 year or G loses avi for 6 months goowon Richarlison
Funny thing is I've not mentioned us at all All I've said is your midfield and defence look worse by the season and without Top 4 or a pot to piss in, Klopp knows you're not rebuilding any time soon. lol @ being back after one or two signings btw.
no you did Richy needed to score one goal against yourselves, Pool or the Goonz he delivered today anyway…I’ll get thinking about what your new username n avatar will be might ask the lads for some suggestions
They're getting Bellingham you know, he will cover the whole midfield, right back, striker and auxiliary right winger when Salahs legs go.
I didn’t say he was the reason for your decline Sorry if I did imply that as defo didn’t mean that I was trying to be polite on the kids thing I am very good friends with a lady worked at Carrington for a long tim. she dates back to busby - lovely lady - and she was always adamant the fergie was the best - she loved him as gaffa and as a man. however. Even she admitted that by in large his managerial style was that of a bully that is how I saw him - bully is the wrong word but I not sure how to describe it I not sure he could have come through today with stories I have been told lol the whole brigade would have nailed him anyway i babbling now I totally agree he rarely let players decline I think the best managers I have seen in my lifetime are (in no order) Fergie Jose Klopp Kenny Ancelotti
Ah another one looking for a rumble lmao I have said since day one he going to City or Real Never going to be us
Bologna 1-1 Juventus, great result and still leaves the door ajar for Roma again with six games left to play, despite some very scary defending at the end, especially when I thought Medel had put through his own net.
The betting app didn't update in time between the goals for him to cash out according to the app so he didn't have the option anyway so he feels better now. Good call though for the Richarlison goal and to get booked for taking his top off. Typical Spurs as well any decent team would be getting the ball out of the net and looking to KO straight away and get a winner.
Fergie got his idea on players from one of your old managers (think it was Shankley), let a players legs go on someone else's pitch not ours.
