Next season team

Son Richarlison
Kane (or buy Maddison)
Udogie Bentancur Bissouma Porro
New CB New CB Romero
New GK

With an attacking manager that front 7 is very dangerous. Its the backline that needs an overhaul.



----------------------------------------------------------------------

I agree but we all know that it will be a sell to buy policy and no one wants any of our players other than Kane

I reckon Bentencur if he wasn’t injured would be a wanted man as would Kulusevski and Romero would look much better if he wasn’t doing the work of a whole defence on his own

The new manager is going to have a hell of a summer, first off we have the players returning from loan

Ndombele
Lo Celso
Reggie
Spence
Winks
Rodon
Gil

Then they will have the Kane situation unless Levy just says your staying for your final year then can go on a free.

Then they have the CB issue, with Lenglet returning to Barca the available players will be

Romero
Dier
Sanchez
Tanganga
Rodon

That’s a set of Centre Backs that compare very poorly with any of the top 10 teams and honestly I think some of the bottom half would turn their noses up.

Then they will have the Full Backs/ Wing Backs to deal with. No fewer than 5 Left sided Defensive players:

Udogie
Sess
Perisic
Davies
Reggie

Plus 3 right sided defensive players.

Then they will see we have 5 of the exact same style of central midfielder:

Winks
Skipp
Bissouma
Bentancur
PEH

Then we have to sort out the keeper situation.

Honestly you would have to be a faaaacking mad man to step into this club at the moment. The squad is so imbalanced and mediocre it’s terrifying.

We’ve not had a strategy in the market since Levy ditched the very successful one of buying young British players on the up.

Paratici has bought some good players, no denying that, but again there has been no thought given to the balance of the squad

We need a roots and branch approach to this, complete rebuild and if Levy isn’t going anywhere then he at least needs to faaack off from the football side of things. Set a budget every summer and then just play with Spreadsheets the rest of the time - he should have zero involvement with the football side beyond that
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It's not as bad as you make it seem. Football fans have a tendency to be melodramatic. Everything is crisis this and disaster that.

2-3 of the right signings for your first team, ship out a few and get a decent coach in who can organise and get a bit better out of a few others and you'll instantly see a drastic difference.

United were apparently 5+ years off being in a good place. More nonsense. Media create hyperbolic drama to drag migs of fans into engaging and those same fans then repeat the theatrics that the likes of talksport push out and the cycle continues.

You can absolutely achieve 4th this season, start fresh in the summer and the whole thing looks completely different in August.

Buy Paulinha & Maddison in the Summer

A new GK

2 new CBs

A top class LB

Plus a massive clear out of some of these squad players…

After we went 1-3 up…. Son should have been taken off & Moura brought on…

Son offers absolutely nothing defensively….

Conte got everything right except....the bit about the players.
That he got wrong.
And I do not understand why. Maybe his Italian was misinterpreted. Or his English let him down
But the players did not deserve that.
But ENIC did
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The players do deserve it imo , Conte has told them to play a certain way but they do not follow what he says , they always bottle the big games , and the managers head always rolls first , Poch , Jose , Now Conte . It’s about time they stood up looked in the mirror and took responsibility.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They didn't bottle the game. They lost 2 points to a very dubious penalty.
