For the record, questioning the hiring of Ten hag shouldn't even be close to a talking point. That would be like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

The same problems have existed across three (or arguably four) managers. It's the players. It's the recruitment. It's always been the players and recruitment.

When Phil Jones is still at the club what is the question

Man U

Roy Keane must be beside himself

He either growing that beard out till United get better or hes shaving it off ready for war.

To put it into context, C. Ronaldo is their best player and he's 37. Plus his workrate is not even close to what it once was.

There is no player on this pitch that could start for Citeh or Liverpool. Maybe Ronaldo at Pool...just maybe.

Klopp wouldn't start Ronaldo in a million years with his workrate.

yeah.. southampton.

man utd won 6 - 3 in the end though.

man city were 5th in 2010 and not established as a top team yet.

The question was asked, was Arsenal ever this bad against a team outside the top six....your argument doesn't hold any water....

it questionable as to whether city were an established "top six" team back then.

in retrospect it could be argued but wolves, leicester like performance (at that time) didn't quite cut it IMO

in the 5 previous seasons man city got 14th, 9th, 10th, 5th and 3rd which back then was not really "top 6" established.
