Fox92 Posted 8 October 2019 Share Posted 8 October 2019 (edited) As funny as it would be they will not go down, lets be honest. If they get anywhere near the bottom three after Christmas then they could pull in any half decent manager in the World.

On top of that there are so many blue ticks on Twitter who support Liverpool. These guys are over represented in the football media. Probably still not over Wembley 2000. Hopefully, anyway.

Besides, no manager (bar Ranners) is a miracle worker. If the likes of Mourinho struggle there, what chance anyone else? The squad is piss poor. Will need major surgery in Jan, when everyone knows they are absolutely desperate and will have to pay through the nose for anyone decent. Players will think twice about joining a sinking ship, as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s actually about 1.1 point per game, giving them around 42 points per season, in a good year teams have dropped on 42 points before. Even if they survived any team finishing on 42 points has definitely been in a fight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey O'Neil Posted 8 October 2019 Share Posted 8 October 2019 Jose eying up Spurs if the media is to be believed. Hopefully Poch - MaNUre. Leaves Brendan out of things- I’ll take that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaspa Posted 9 October 2019 Share Posted 9 October 2019 Simeone's the only man I imagine having Man U's desired impact. But he isn't going to leave Atletico for them them and he can't speak English Whole Solskjaer thing is about evoking the ways of the past. Problem is it was only 6 years ago and Old Babyface isn't Sir Alex Ferguson. More hilarity please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players have an almighty weight on their shoulders, and look devoid of any confidence.bit like us in 2007/2008, but multiplied ten times over. like us back then, they are conceding very few, but can’t score! Sure we had the best defence when we went down? I don’t doubt they have injuries, but if your injured I doubt you’ll be In any rush to get back playing. another manager may create a positive reaction, a la ole last year,(before things went bad again) however the club looks like it will be in a far worst state compared to last year.

I'd actually say there is more chance of Tony Pulis going there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know but United/spurs are a great to watch at the moment If true then it is a certainty that Manure go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urban fox Posted 9 October 2019 Share Posted 9 October 2019 All this talk of Man utd going down made me think. has anyone else realised that if we had beaten them at OT as we should have done they would now be in the relegation zone! I think if they actually did drop into the bottom three, even if only until all the weekends results were in, OGS would be history. He is already a dead man walking unless he can put a decent run together between now and the end of November As much as I don't think they will be relegated wouldn't it just be a blast if it was to happen! the absolute meltdown on red cafe would be something to behold. To those who say its impossible though, all I will say is that nothing is impossible in football. Most people, including the bookies, thought that it was impossible for us to win the league in 2016. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScouseFox Posted 9 October 2019 Share Posted 9 October 2019 if they get twatted by liverpool like they really should then he is gone. they just about put up with moyes and mourinho being rubbish for ages but they both got jibbed when they saw just how far away from their rivals both on and off the pitch they are. same will happen here pretty sure. if he scrapes a 0-0 or something that would be delightful. keep him in a job and take points off liverpool. would enjoy that a lot.

You are probably correct. But I always find it odd that managers tend to get the sack after losing a big game. He should already have gone. Losing to Liverpool will happen to most clubs this season.

Losing to Liverpool will happen to most clubs this season. oh yeah deffo, losing to palace at home, to newcastle, not winning an away game for 8 months or whatever are much more sackable offences than losing to this liverpool team, who will beat every single team (most of them twice) this season. but it just seems to be a pattern, especially with united. i guess it didn’t help moyes or jose that both got completely embarrassed by liverpool (and moyes by city as well a week or so later or whatever it was), not just beaten. liverpool had like 40 shots against mourinho’s united didn’t they, something outrageous like every outfield player and all three subs had a shot in the 90 mins. i guess when you’re a dead man walking you just need something to push you that final bit further. next weekend should be it, unfortunately.

The Horse's Mouth Posted 9 October 2019 Share Posted 9 October 2019 think they'll sack him after norwich get something, this needs another caretaker/interim though get someone to do the dirty work, get the squad back together and then nab an Allegri for next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We complain about the media in the country, and the non sports side are *****, but you'd never get a sports journalist talk to professional sportsman like the Marca guy did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
