Thoughts on the ice man open.substack.com/pub/someth…

One of my all time favorites

Outside of a couple players, Utd have a mediocre squad, mid table at best. A club that used to have 4 strikers now doesn’t have a single number 9 to choose from. The self proclaimed“biggest club in the world” has one half fit left back who was bought 12 years ago for 27m. The last time Utd were in the Champions League they supported their manager by signing a left back who Spurs were about to release, 3 years later, Utd are somehow in an even worse position. Yet these people impose Real Madrid expectations on their Manager and want to turn OT into a gated community for wealthy day trippers. To them, Utd are a business that happens to play football.

Carricksexuals not complaining about a United manager giving youth a chance.

We keep giving our wickets away man

Man Utd after 7 league games; 5 points behind Liverpool 6 points behind Chelsea 9 points behind Brighton 11 points behind Arsenal 14 points behind Man City Make of that what you will.

Damn

STUPID STUPID STUPID SHOT SELECTION MAN. WHAT IS UP WITH OUR BATSMEN??? #TheProteas

So funny Ackerman went out in the way everyone assumed he would 🤣 #TheProteas

Test cricket is being played in the wrong time of year consistently across multiple countries because of T20 franchise nonsense… it’s killing a 450 year old sport

The N2 wall is a masterclass of apartheid-era thinking disguised as a safety solution. It’s the ultimate proof that when the DA can’t manage basic service delivery, they just build a concrete wall so you can’t see the suffering they mismanage.

Ruben Amorim was rightly hammered for being stubbornly wedded to one system at United. Michael Carrick has showed a willingless to adapt and deserves praise for thinking outside the box yesterday #mufc manchestereveningnews.co.uk/…

Carrick today : - Could've played Yoro at LCB (Yoro has said it's his preferred side) and Maz at RCB - Took off Baleba and Leeds started to cut through us - Injured, out of form and yellow carded Bruno played 90mins - Takes off Tielemans who was miles better - Didn't make a sub until the 75th min (forced sub was Maz for Licha at HT) - Didn't make an attacking sub until 80mins+ - random point but couldn't trust Amass, an actual LB to play there and show what he's got, and then deploy Dalot to his natural position and Yoro to his.. - Even before his very late sub, he didn't make any apparent tactical adjustments after Leeds came flying in the 2nd half and even got a goal.. - Finally, Carrick didn't come here to win.. he came here to not lose.. This is not a Manchester united manager.. This is an absolute waste of everyone's time..

My conclusion to this is I no longer want to see ex United players as permanent manager of this club I’m really starting to dislike Carrick which I didn’t want to happen Very cowardly manager with blatant favouritism towards underperforming players and shit tactics

Ruben Amorim had 10 points from his first seven games last season, while Carrick has managed just 7 points from his first seven games. So why isn’t Carrick getting the same treatment? 👀

I cannot believe my eyes.

Bruno has been horrible every single game. Not average, or poor. He’s been God awful. Now he’s back to moaning and complaining & losing his head. Get rid of him in January, it’s been over 6 years of misery with this fool. He’ll always be the face of our darkest times in PL.

Another game where Michael Carrick has waited 70+ minutes to make changes. Even more baffling after the how poor Manchester United have been since half time.

I don’t understand Carrick. It’s easy man. Mazroui LB sale RB and Yoro LCB what the fuck is that back four as is

Take a shot everyone Bruno doesn’t keep the call when he can

How on earth has Youri Tielemans become undroppable? He’s been dreadful all season
