There's a good possibility that in 5 years time United will be back to the club it was of old
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Why’s that then?

Because they’re going to sack the under performing manager they have for one that has a track record of winning things by spending absolute tonnes of money on players?

Because that’s worked recently hasn’t it?

Still won more recently than you have.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No sign of returning to the United of old though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

When they get a decent coach they will succeed due to their spender power.

Liverpool and Klopp need to fill their boots this season while Chelsea Arsenal and United are rebuilding in England.

And the likes of Real are rebuilding too.

Strip him off the captaincy with immediate effect and give it too......hmmm

They've been trying to get a decent coach for five years without success.

You found one and won less.

It is quite funny that only Chelsea and City has had more success than us since SAF left.

And Arsenal. Three FA cups in that time.

Losing patience with Antonio too. He offers nothing going forward anymore and has become stagnant.

I think people expect too much of Valencia.

For several years he hasn't been playing RB he has been playing the whole right side.
Incredible ask of any player. Not only mark two men but offer a potent attacking threat too?

Look at what has been playing ahead of him.
Mata - The most physical/athletically lacking player I can recall at Man Utd who also only cuts in and spends most of the game centrally.
Lingard - Bang average. Appears busy but actually contributes little defensively or creatively. Fancies himself as the English Iniesta and also spends most of the match centrally/out of position.
Mhki - Didn't get enough games at RW (Or at all for that matter).

We haven't had a proper RW since end of 2013/14 season in Nani - a period in which Valencia was still regarded as a winger himself.

Since then we've had Zaha, Di Maria, Memphis, Januzaj, Martial, Sanchez and Rashford all occupy the LW position, 5 of which are right footed btw

Last night was the first time it was patently clear that the ask is now too much. Sanchez just left him to to the Wolves against Gaya and Guedes. If Guedes was half decent he could have had a hatful.

Very good assessment totally agree.

Typical Valencia - looks like he’s on the attack and then stops and plays it safe.
