It's incredible how they've suddenly started counting the Community Shield as a trophy once Mourinho relied on it for his "treble" claims.
Wasn't even considered in Arsene's or even Fergy's trophy count.

It's definitely a trophy when we win it. Can't confirm it as a trophy for others sadly.

So they’ve made Carrick interim manager until they appoint an interim manager? I’m sure the bookies count 10 games in charge as the next permanent manager so not sure why Zidane is near the top of the odds. Probably worth a go on a few shitheads like Nicky Butt. Lol yup. I knew there was money to be made and they’d fucked up. Got 50/1 for Solskjaer yesterday. Within an hour he was 2/1.

It’s ridiculous the number of articles on BBC Sport about this, as if they’re the only club anyone cares about. All about those clicks.

Be interesting to see if this forces Spurs to give Poch some money, he's made sounds about United in the past and is obviously going to be frustrated with the current transfer 'policy.'

If transfer money were that much of an issue he'd already be a fair bit into a reign as PSG or Real Madrid manager

look at the state of that tweet hahahahahahahaha, didnt realise you get a trophy for runners up and they say we are the media darlings.... We’re defo not media darlings either though. It was only last season we started getting more preferential coverage mostly because of the European run. Tweets like that are done to get exactly that kind of response. More engagement and more exposure means more social media numbers, more money eventually. It’s the same with those ‘current manager vs former manager win percentage’ tweets. It’s essentially click bait in tweet form because people can’t help themselves because the tweets are that blindingly stupid. My ex is a social media manager and she used to do this all the time for companies because we can’t helomourselves even though we know it’s just click bait. Like I’ll point out how he’s got us to two European finals as a marker of how much progress we’ve made under him but I’m not going to list it as an honour especially when the reasons we lost two of them were because of his failings to address problem areas which he finally has (and something he never did at Dortmund).

I can't see him forcing a way out of Spurs for United. I think United will fall into the trap of bringing in a name rather than an actual talent, so it'll be Zidane, Wenger, Conte, Allegri, Simeone.
You'd have to assume that at some point their absolute crippling mediocrity will affect the bottom line but sadly that doesn't seem to be the case.

if poch goes to united it really doesn't matter who we replace him with because the next morning they'll be pulling me out from under some victoria line train
if he leaves for psg or madrid idk who we replace him with. howe seems most likely. either way it'll be a disaster
