Him & Haj need to let it go.

Martial will flurish in another team.
At least he still ain't Juelzing for Fred.
I like Tony too, but he was crap yesterday, no two ways about it. Ole's lack of coaching isn't helping him, but he could've still put in a better effort. He just doesn't have that hunger inside of him.
I'm still holding out hope that Ole will get sacked before Christmas and a better manager will give him new life, but yeah, I think it's the end of the road for his United career.
He's dope when he's feeling it.

i think one of the things that makes Man U. look bad is when you have a squad like Leicester City win the league about 5 years ago, retool and win a cup this year... They are doing more with less .... way less. The expectations for Man U. are always going to be based on history of past performance and how much money they are spending. They should be in contention for most trophies year in and year out.
Yeah it's all influenced by history, as though we have a divine right win.
With that said you're way off on the Leicester thing
They won one of the weakest Premier Leagues of all time, almost every big club was in transition, getting smacked in Europe etc
Now we have the strongest league we've had since the late 00's, arguably 3 of the top 5 teams in Europe, with a stranglehold over the CL for the most part.
It's turned around very quickly but the circumstances are massively different.

Nah they won though and that's embarrassing for the top teams. You play who you play. Does one of kobe's rings not count because they played a so-so Magic team? Or how the East was horrible in the early 2000s etc.
I'm not saying it doesn't count, i'm just giving you some insight about the differing circumstances and why you can't judge United now by Leicester then. It was an incredible achievement whatever the circumstances, but put this United team in that Premier League season and most likely they win it.
They won the league with 81 points, the last 3 winners got 98, 99 and 86 and that's with all 20 teams in the league getting stronger as a whole since 15-16.

Koeman has to be trolling with Luuk de Jong

That's fine but i wasn't just talking about then either... Leicester won the FA cup this year... 2021. That's another cup for them. i'm just sayin Man U. gotta start bringing in some hardware
Three of my favorite players are now on Flamengo.
FML
Gabigol, David Luiz and Andreas Pereira
How's Pereira looking? I see he played back in the midfield last night.
Good Lord that Barca game was painful to watch. And Koeman got red at the end of it too. Ref was bugging, De Jong red for two soft yellows imo. But even then, they field the lightest Barca team i have ever seen. Now sevilla next without de jong and a fist full of injuries.
