...ManUntd where reputable or winning coaches go to die
I blame the fans who hounded and chased the previous owners after Ferguson left.

Every post SAF manager had something going for him. Examples:

* ETH at Ajax (CL semi-finalist and Eredevisie winner)

*Mourinho (2 time Champions League winner, UEFA Cup winner, league title winner in 4 different countries)

*LVG (3 time Champions League finalist, league title winner in 3 different countries).

Watch United ruin Ruben like they did the others.

...exactly, maybe the guy will come for the money. The club was ruined by them bring in old tired legs instead of their academy kids.

United make some baffling transfer decisions:

-sold McTominay and kept Eriksen whose legs have gone and who is 32 and approaching the twilight of his career, and Casemiro (see Eriksen)

-bought Mason Mount for 55 million even though:

(a) they knew they had a teenage sensation in Kobbie Mainoo breaking through the academy

(b) they could have signed Mount for free 6 months later since his contract was expiring and Chelsea did not want to keep him (which enabled Chelsea to spend that 55 million on an upgrade in Cole Palmer)

(c) Mount plays in the same position as United's star player and captain who will never get dropped, and United already had 3 players who play in Mount's position

What brained logic drives a professional football club to pay 55 million for a player that the selling club no longer wants and has no leverage to demand a high transfer fee for?

-bought Antony for 85 million and sold Swedish international Anthony Elanga for 15 million

-let De Gea leave for free, sold England international Henderson for about 15 million, and paid 45 million for Onana (who is not as good as De Gea or Henderson)

...good question, and Nigerians on CE have the incessant guts to question, "who is Tanimu's agent"

Far from laughable and well within reason. Stability is paramount. With the reindeers revving their engines, it makes absolute sense to have the ship steadying brilliance of Big Sam navigate winter’s worst. Amorim or whatever “foreigner” they favour can board the ship once docked in January.

Had United gone this route in the first place, they wouldn’t be in the mess they’re in.

United is going for Amorim (who may end up being another ETH or Villas-Boas).

Zidane is the best candidate for the job. He is used to managing at a big club with massive expectations and pressure. He would also instantly command respect as a legendary player and for being a 3 time conservative Champions League winning manager.

De Gea and Sancho had issues with ETH and will not be sad about his predicament. However, these social media posts are tactless.

...but none of the images mentioned the man name, how is it tactless?
