    Full quote-

    “Rubbish. They’re a poor football team at the moment, aren’t they? Those results they’ve had recently are misleading. Too many lazy players on the football team - you can’t get away with that.”

    I agree here, and this is the difference between them and say Real Madrid.

    If you play with that little effort at the Bernabeu, you are getting benched until you’re sold at the first opportunity. Simple as that.

    I dont think they are lazy, they all train and for the most part keep themself fit.

    Not a manc but it seema like the facilities needs to be improved. Need to have a good environment to foster a elite mentality.

    People like Ten Hag with ball knowledge have to be given time and respect. Sure all the players are making more money and have all the bitches they can want.

    Ball knowledge a d pedigree have to be at the center of it all.

    They give out too many big contracts too fast. Most of the player that fizzle are good players, just not in line with their wages and this puts on pressure.

    Martial is decent for 80k/pw. Maybe bever 120 because he had some electric early seasons that may have got him a bump. But 250 k is criminal.

    The fans had an unreasonable level of expectation of how they should have compete against citeh and the new eara of football.

    I think it drove the board to make those big marquee signings that may not have worked out instead of taking risks on players.

    The ship is coming around. It will take some time but they are getting some turnaround in the squad and it will improve in time.

    A few more windows with Ten Hag, then try a 3 seasons with De Zerbi or someone whoknows ball.
