Man Utd 1 Spurs 6 - time to move on Ollie! - 0762 - 04-10-2020
After observing this "weird match" from 30 secs onwards after United scored the 1st goal from the pen spot, I must say the embarrassing events that followed were totally unacceptable from a United fan's perspective. No structure, no commitment, no passion and no pride in "playing for the shirt". All records broken for goals lost in their 1st three games of the season. Sure, Martial's red card was a factor in making this thrashing happen (I hope Lamela is retrospectively punished by the FA for his delayed dramatic collapse after being the offending party to "pull" Martial's reaction!) but Maguire was an absolute numpty in United's defence and has OGS not realised yet that Bailly's career is over at OT due to incurring too many bad injuries????? He replaced Lindelof in the starting line up and he is not good enough either but he'll be quietly chuckling after watching that nightmare by both CBs!! Pogba's concession of the 6th goal to a pk was absolutely infuriating mainly because of his smiley reaction after it and the fact he needlessly gave away the pen by not remaining on his feet!!!!
Ultimately OGS picked the team, OGS has a part to play in engendering team spirit, OGS has a part to play in ensuring fitness levels are "up to scratch". He picked the wrong team!! Team spirit looks non-existent!! There is still a good number of United players who are still unfit since that humiliating result v Crystal Palace at OT! Also the matter of fact attitudes from him and a good number of players is not good enough TBF - one can understand why United stalwarts like Keane and Evra are going apoplectic after watching this shit!! Therefore OGS really must move on!! I don't believe he is the man to manage United any more. One never likes to remove a manager so early in the season but I just think this is a final confirmation that United need somebody who can motivate and manage this team far more effectively than him.

No identity, no players to build a team around and no one taking any leadership on the pitch, this squad has been poor for a few seasons now in terms of being a team and that shows no signs of changing. They will win more than they lose because they have some very good players but if they don't play as a team, don't win or lose as a team then they will stay well off the title race again. They are light years behind Liverpool, and significantly behind MC, Chelsea, Leicester, Arsenal, Spurs and even Everton at the moment!!

Yep! Although Liverpool surprisingly being "shown up" tonight by Villa who are already 2-0 up after 7 mins and look like they'll score every time they enter the L'pool pen box. FFS Barkley has missed another "sitter" - it should be 4-0!!! 3-1 Villa - John McGinn - should be 5-1!! As Greavesy used to say - "It's a funny old game"!!!

Final score at Villa Park - an astounding 7-2 win, a footie record breaker for Villa and a bigger "humping" than United's humiliation!
