[@charlesodoch6070]

Real Madrid top management is the complete opposite of the glazers and the manager shares no blame for the failures of the club no wonder we have spent more than Man City and had more than 5 managers but with no return on the pitch. INEOS has taken the right step to address the mother of the problems by appointing people with footballing minds to guide the club on managerial appointments, staff and player's recruitment,academy, women's team etc rather than having business people with no football knowledge running the club.​@@InspirationalMagic

[@asmarthamster]

Sorry but watching their performances over the last 5-6 years has been abysmal. There has been no consistency or clear bigger picture.

[@jose-marie]

I'll tell you what's gone wrong with UNITED FANS: A short memory. United finished 3rd and won a cup in Ten Hag's first season. He had his group of players. Many of them not very good. But they were contenders still. And then things spiraled after that. The club, we all thought, was getting sold. It did not. The Glazers didn't want to sell or buy new players in those circumstances. So Ten Hag had to make due with last minute signings that he could convince to come to United. And loan signings. He came into this season with lots of chaos in administration, only to then suffer the worst injury record a club has ever had in a season. Yes, we've been abysmal. But some of those losses have been close. Real close. How much could an available Luke Shaw have contributed? Or a fit Varane and Martinez? How much more part could a Mason Mount have played? Could Rashford have scored more if he had his wingman Shaw playing right behind him? Could a working Rashford have given Fernandes the freedom to stay up top creating from where he's more effective? Could Onana have benefited from an experienced, steady backline? All those are ifs. But they are worth debate. For me, the biggest mystery is how this has been the worst season United has had but they're somehow still in 6th/7th and still made a cup final. If that is a bad season, I'm looking forward to seeing a good season from them.

[@JJojo1991]

We can't do too much with the players we have availible now. Looking at this season top 4 would had been the max position in the league we could get. Some think because we are Manchester United we have to win every game but not with this team. Next few seasons if Sir Jim. and the rest does decent or more then Glazers did we'll get better. No doubt We need to be patient

[@carnivore2023]

Have you even watched our games? Or watched other clubs play in the Premier League? The quality in general this season in the Premier League has been VERY poor. There have been so much low quality football to watch this season. And the reality is also that we have won many of our games by pure luck and or the other team being totally shite at putting the ball in our net. If you really know anything about football and are able to be honest, you would admit this. The reality is that Ole did better to much better during his seasons at United apart from not winning the Mickey Mouse cup and his last months and even they were not as bad as it has been during our last months under ten Hag this season. I bet you were one of the Ole outers and/or claim that ten hag is so much better and has done so much better than Ole, but the reality is that it is not so. And if you think it was correct to sack Ole that did objectively better than ten Hag, why do you want to keep ten Hag now?

[@MohauLoselo]

​@@carnivore2023 I agree with your points, and that Ole did well. And he said it himself in the Overlap when he wanted to move Man Utd above the counterattacking football, but these players couldn't do it! We were too early to sack Ole.

[@martysmith2851]

Not true, the Ole/Rangnick season was worse, the players had down tools and didnt care and we were getting smacked up. This season (as bad as it is) has been massively impacted by injuries and stupid in-game management by Ten Hag AND the players, where we have thrown away SO MANY leads (when we should have won).

[@le_roi5868]

Sacking Ten Hag will look like a knee jerk reaction but it won't fix United's problem. Structural reset has only just begun, squad cleansing is needed, so it will be a mistake to get rid of Ten Hag now. Arteta and Klopp took years to build their squad and that's despite having the right structure and recruitment behind them. Time to get real!

[@brice9685]

ten hag has a better win rate that kloop did at the same time

[@thabocomesalsa728]

INEOS will find that Ten Hag will fit in very well with their plans going forward. He is a team player, like he was at Ajax

[@Lioris13]

Conversations like this are what is wrong with Utd. Give the Manager a chance rather than having 2 over reactionary people discuss for the clicks. Flex just likes to speak dispite not saying much of sense. I really expect more from this channel 😕

[@doctorkhumalo7730]

We expected him to make miracles happen with a squad of players we were ALL ready to get rid off before he came, his first season was that miracle but it couldn't be sustained as the usual suspects would eventually show their true colours and those with minimal quality would eventually be found out and now people are surprised, i don't get it.

[@king.k284]

I think everyone is overreacting. When ten hag took over, we only knew this would be a 4-5 season process. If everyone just has some patience, everything will be fine.

[@rd4798]

Getting the spaces between players right is the coaches responsibility and we have been wide open and easy to play against from the first day of the season until now.

[@king.k284]

@@rd4798 do you think it’s easy to get the player positioning spot on for games when you’re forced to play with a different back 4 every game?

[@charlesodoch6070]

​@@rd4798We are in a transition and last season we weren't this wide open in midfield but the manager chose a system that was good for the players available but not his favorite system and he is moving into his system this season although it has exposed the lack of quality in the squad for his system couple with the mass injury at the back.

[@rd4798]

@king.k284 what does playing a different back four have to do with the large distance between central midfielders and attackers. Our transition when we lose the ball (which we do a lot) is the worst I've ever seen from a utd team

[@rd4798]

@charlesodoch6070 yes we was, overrun on several occasions especially away from home. To date EtH only has one win against top 9 side (Villa) and that came this season. And ironically we sold the player who was best at covering the ground on defensive transitions (Fred).

How can you expect one man to change a pattern? LVG did alright got sacked, Mourinho good season followed by bad season sacked, Ole good season followed by bad season sacked, ETH good first season, and….? INEOS are making the right noises in terms of sorting out the culture to allow whoever is manager to needs to be in the right environment. I have worked in toxic environments (not football) and good people were wasted in those environments, because the higher ups had got it incredibly wrong. Should ETH be allowed to stay? He’s not helped himself and managers aren’t allowed to makes mistakes at MU. I think he should be given a chance because in the correct environment.

We are reaping the rewards of years of neglect. Thrust into the wilderness for more than a decade and at the heart of all this decay is the Glazers.

It will need time and patience from loyal fans to support the club and EtH as we rebuild under a new era with INEOS at the helm.

Tho id rather have Rio in that role but he might slap ppl around too much and forget the good mood thingy.

[@pokeballdkdenmark8464]

"Worst United team!" No way - the one under Rangnick was the worst. Not that it was Rangnick's fault but most players just checked out because they knew Rangnick wasn't going to be the manager next season. Same spine of the team is still in the club though and that needs to change. I agree though it's the worst defense we seen so far because Maguire and Wan-Bissaka + makeshift players are playing every week and only Dalot has done OK even though he finds it hard to keep his concentration. For instance Dalot cost 2 goals against Chelsea and that devasting loss could cost Europe League spot in the end. If defense is strengthened a lot and a great Casemiro replacement is bought (2 if he leaves) I think this United team will definitely get a top 4 spot next season as minimum and maybe even a trophy.

[@stevenattias1803]

No the worst team was the Ole/Ragnick team. The fact that Ten Hag got a trophy from pretty much the same squad was a miracle. Let the new group back him, and then he could build the team he wants. The downfall started with hiring Moyes, who now admitted he was not ready.

[@peterberry5186]

Where has it gone wrong? Lack of memory from our so called fans and pundits. The very success some fans think we're entitled to, was achieved finishing 11, 2, 11 in SAF first 3 years. We won zip!

The standard has been upheld consistently and poor performance has been exposed - example Mcguire, Garnacho. Recruitment of Hojlund, Martinez and Onana worked barring Anthony. Youth development is at the core again. One more thing, one needs to make a choice of going for continuity of the changes already made to establish the culture or get into whole new change. I go for continuity of the changes. At the end performance will follow.

we also have been relegated in 1893/94, 1921/22, 1930/31 and 1936/37 so how is this worst haha people so silly you like to use past success but your blinded and dont remember we were not always the dominate team acting like we have run football for life chill give manager time see what he does next year then we may have more manager options if we choose to change.

[@FishingSGsWild]

spittin' facts n theories!!

[@CalderClan]

Loved this set up Great video!

[@abelovedsonofGodinwhomHeis35-6]

Flex is as his name is Mr Flexible and completely by choice, he is a people pleaser, like many idiotic fans he happily looks past the title of Manager, looking to not blame another manager, but say the owners badly managed the club, employing the wrong people all the time, but no brain cell to consider ETH as a wrong employer, the best thing for the club to be sorted out quickly is for fans think Flex to stop supporting United, they are part of the problem, either they dont understand football or are trying tooo hard to please everyone to talk crap most of the time, by trying to not blame ETH.

[@anujneermul7471]

No no way, this can’t be the worst I have seen.

[@DxDx222]

No rio againnn?

[@jeannetramane8983]

Sir Alex please Joel...

[@firewayneakabruckback8980]

Flex stop it stop it jah know 😢😢😢😢😢

[@StivoUtrecht]

Flex is no United fan…please don’t use that guy to talk about my club

[@ChocoPaid-vp8yz]

What really bothers me is that with hindsight some still think LVG was boring or stagnating. He was building, we could actually see what he was trying to do, we could see where he was trying to go. We were defensively solid, had young dynamic attackers he was developing well With a few more pieces, especially in the midfield we would have competed. We definitely would have done better than what came after him

[@twopants6893]

Green and what?

[@27mule]

Just image this, if ETH got fired from Man Utd, will any other big club hire him. I think the answer is obvious. So Unless Man Utd no longer regards itself as a big club , then keep him there

[@PlackBantherr]

Amazing episode guys!

[@curlwilson7949]

The only problem united have is mentality,how they cant keep a lead is mind boggling,everything seeems ok until they blunder and its now struggles to change the results,its annoying

[@itaineasy]

Flex is just over doing it

[@ChrisReadUK]

Ronaldo was done for shirt sales and profit for the Glazers.

[@X-Klawmation]

Flex just did the fan version of CR7 sitting with Piers Morgan! GTFOH!

[@ChrisReadUK]

Still “Glazers Out” bro.

[@cryptone0075]

Joel essex

[@LGeezy85]

A really good assessment of United and non-biased one especially as it’s ALL FACTS… Lovin’ what FIVE are doing and look forward to future content. Any show plans for the Euros?

[@pokeballdkdenmark8464]

Sorry! I could never like a video where anyone is suggesting Ten Hag should be sacked - backing the horrendous and unfair media agenda against him. Not surprising though since Flex works for Sky.

[@sammukangu3133]

United needs to stop doing this long pre season tours coz its the reason we had so many Injuries..cant blame the manager

[@kaisersolo76]

thats to raise money. thats the reason we do it. We didn't need to do that all 10 years ago.

[@cesarsierra3800]

Yeah no. The 21/22 season was way worse than this one.

[@mattdyson6144]

Spot on

[@ShadowGamesMY]

[@Walid_mufc]
