this is why footballers from the 90s and 2000s were the most elite level we'll ever see. Even the "average" players of those times were technically and tactically miles ahead of some of the "world class" players of today.

There is a massive gap in quality between Ferguson’s United and the present United. The grit, passion, willingness to die for the badge and commitment Ferguson’s team showed hasn’t been matched in recent years/times. GGMU, better luck for the future.
@anthonyclarke401614 күн бұрын
Trust me, that grit, passion, willingness is being installed. ETH has worked extremely hard at creating the team he now has and ridding the club of the unprofessional, toxic culture that was deeply ingrained. Add to it the standards INEOS are setting to assist him and it's clear the process of removing this culture is being advanced. It won't be fully complete until Rashford is gone and Chelsea finish 14th or above, thereby triggering their obligation to buy Sancho. Rest of squad is playing for ETH and the badge. The quality is their, especially with Ugarte finally in the team and the outrageous talent Ten Hag has progressed from the Academy. Precisely the same things Fergie instilled at United which took time, youth, quality and a willing winning mentality. The future looks very bright at United. GGMU

Nani got played up front in a pre-season game and didn't do as well as Robben, so get rid of him too.
