They might as well go for Paul Ince, Tony Mowbray or Owen Coyle. The whole club stinks, the players are unmanageable so you might as well go for the cheapest option that'll break the club.

Did anyone notice sesko was 10th penalty taker last night? 

Either the guy has has put himself there or the coaching staff put him last. Either way not a ringing endorsement of your big money striker. 

Maybe they didn't want to dent this confidence so early if he missed so let him wait? He put his pen away easily though. Although it was hard to miss against the Grimsby keeper. 

He also skied one over from 2 yards out. It came at him via a bounce or two but should have scored.

I won’t matter how long they give him, or anybody else. The whole club has become unmanageable. The manager capable of bringing them success doesn’t exist. It’s like the “ Titanic “ before it hit the iceberg.

Since Sir Alex Ferguson left, no head coach/manager has lasted 3 season and some not even 1 full season. 

They have lacked direction and a proper coherent plan. 

Ralf Rangnick said this during his time at the club and why they didn't listen to him, and why on earth they didn't appoint him as Sporting Director and let him come up with that proper coherent plan.

I think sacking Amorim won't solved those problem tho it doesn't help when he had thoughts of quitting.

It looks like the players have given up on him and are just treading water until the new mug comes in. A great time to play them !

When we used to play them in the “ Fergietime “ era you had to win there to get a draw !

Madness to sell McTominay. He should've been their Darren Fletcher. Steady, high-performing, loyal player that the team or squad is built around.

A puzzling thing about Utd is they don't seem to have successful youth development. Arsenal have brought on Nwaneri, Lewis-Skelly and now Max Dowman, in past few seasons, but can't think of Man U players, albeit, I don't follow them much at all.

Their transfer policy is, needless to say, poor. The most obvious signing in the world, in my opinion, was Kvaratskhelia, before PSG got him. A player like that, with, admittedly, a functioning team, is clearly of an elite level and with his attacking, exciting style, lifts a club.

And played with a bit of pride. What he lacked in natural ability he made up for in work rate. Man Utd fans had a snobby attitude to McTominay but he's what they need and is the complete opposite of what they've filled their squad with. 

Maybe his reputation suffered from being paired with Fred for so long. Wasn't an inspiring partnership.

McTominay was wrongly profiled as a defensive midfielder.

Since moving to Napoli, and for Scotland, he has thrived as an attacking midfielder. Suppose with Bruno there he was unlikely to get a game at United.

Having Ferandes as captain is also a mistake. He's a dummy spitting diva, always throwing his hands up and complaining. On the pitch he seems the sort who'd bitch at team mates if he didn't get the ball.

Compare him to the likes of Keane and Bruce when they were the top club.

He’s petulant, but he’s one of their best players, if not the best.

Absolute classic United to nullify him in a new system and cut down on his goals and assists.

They should have sold him this summer.

If the singles are to stay up, they need 3 points at Old Triffid today.

They’ll never have a better chance. I’d even fancy us getting something there today so is the shambles at Old Trafford.

VAR doing the job it was intended to do, give the big boys even more advantage.  Not for the first time VAR bails out the big club with what can only be described as a ludicrous decision.  Seen it over and over.  Why no VAR in the Championship?  Simple, no Liverpool, Man C, Arsenal etc in the Championship, no need for it no one to bail out
