    Their position in the Premiership table is giving rise for concern to many Man Utd fans,
    but there is absolutely no excuse for the morons who have attacked the home of
    Executive Vice Chairman Ed Woodward. I bet his wife and kids were terrified particularly
    as he wasn't at home when the incident took place.

    They're 5th in the league.

    5th. Self-entitled morons.

    Spent 80 million on Maguire, 50 million on Wan Bissaka, 20 million on Dalot, 50 million on Fred, 77 million on Lukaku, 40 million on Matic, 30 million on Sanchez, 30 million on Lindelof. All these purchases have been made since summer 2017. That's £377 million spent in 2 and half year so far.

    Their problem isn't higher up at the minute it's the underperforming recruitment team they've got and the woeful manager they have in charge.

    Divine right to win everything mentality.

    Things not going their way so toys out of the pram.

    Protests planned for next home game.


    But this is pure nastiness.

    Well the logic...as Neville once said. Get all the fans tweets when they signed di Maria, falcao. Mchkatarian, pogba etc for massive money and spent more than the so called other big spenders

    Makes a change to them terrorising catering staff in away ends so much that they don't want to work there again and you have to put metal bars up.

    They are also poised to sign Bruno Fernandez from Sporting Lisbon in a deal that could eventually cost the Club £67.5 million. They are also mulling over recalling Sanchez from his loan deal.

    Just goes to prove if you don't earmark the right type of player to sign, no amount of money can guarantee silverware and success. Trouble with Man Utd fans, is that they were spoiled by the Ferguson years, so much so, that now they are going through a barren spell, their cosmopolitan following are becoming increasingly disgruntled.

    The situation is being made even worse by the success being enjoyed by City and their frustration is sure to heighten when their hated rivals Liverpool win the title in May. I honestly can't see their current boss OGS being in charge for next season. He's sure to be sacrificed to deflect some of the criticism away from the Glazers, the board and Ed Woodward.

    Hes the figurehead for the Glaziers. His sole remit appears to be ensure that commercial revenue is maintained and maximised.

    Unfortunately for the fans, that's all they seem to be interested in. Good chance Pogba won't be there much longer and I was reading today that they are prepared to let Rojo join Estudiantes initially on loan, with a view to a permanent deal later.

    They seem to have lost the knack of identifying the type of player that they can integrate with other member of their squad and their fans fear that they will be in " the wilderness" for some seasons to come.

    Speculation seems to be mounting that they are lining Pochettino up to take over from OGS. Could he be the answer to restoring their former glories.?

    I've despised Gary Neville ever since he defended Man Utd's supporters over the kiosks incident. The fvcker was linked with our job, and I'd have not gone to a single game under his tenure. Season ticket returned. Have it back: not in my name. Same if they ever employed Blackwell or Morgan.

    I am well known to despise Man Utd and their Plastic fans. But this is just not on, I hope the Woodwards had CCTV and the cowards that did this are brought to justice, at the end of the day it's just a bloody game FFS.

    Criminal behaviour that is way beyond the pale. I'm sure they will be caught and brought to justice.
