They are slagging him off these days saying he has been ****e since December and should, be dropped. Fickle plastics
Probably in the same place we were last season, neck and neck with City. We are a bit like the scousers, next year will be our (decline) year (like it has been for the last ten years)
Who is this "they", i need to speak with them. RVP may need to be rested but that is not the same as dropped.
Exactly, van Rapist has covered over some serious cracks, without him and the nice healthy help at the start of the season by refs like Clutterbug and halsey to give them some momentum they might have been 3rd.
He's off form but the excuse being bandied around is he's tired, if RvP is tired it is probably from prowling the streets at night looking for women all alone in dimly lit streets
Love it who do you guys think will paper over the cracks/carry our team next season? we have been a one man team since Robson, many different men but always that one who turns out to be a good decorator.
I was having this discussion earlier, always a one man team but the man seems to keep changing, long may it continue!
Makes you wonder, Utd have had a dream run this year, albeit a professional run,as always. Truth is , they are very very ordinary. Which is a real slap in the face for the rest of us, given they are a million points in front of the also rans. Man City have learned that money alone doesn't cut the mustard, and are full of rifts and discord. Arsenal have learned that if you don't spend, you fail......again and again. Spurs have improved out of sight, due to a proper manager arriving. We continue to self destruct, with no signs that any change is imminent. In fact Rafa is probably our all time low point. The PL is at its' lowest ebb, destroyed by too much Sky funding, a seriously lousy FA, and a feeling that more money is the cure all.
Agree partially. The recession is what killed English/British Football, up until then clubs could spend what they wanted knowing they would never to pay back their debts to the banks. When the recession came that all changed. Chelsea could no longer spend £24m on SWP or United spend £30m on Veron. Clubs had to be far more shrewd in the transfer market. The only thing that made the Premier League superior to all the others was the superior funding and money pumped in by Sky and the broadcasters which enabled us to prize away top overseas talent, we could never dream of producing the kind of talent Spain, Germany or Italy did, or even the Dutch. Now that's gone and English clubs financial muscle has been restricted were seeing the effects. RVP aside, none of this United crop could hold a candle to their expensively assembled sides of the 90s.
