And the club won't win a thing as long as those rats are in charge.
it's a pity too because the team did everything you could have asked from them and more to make it to 3rd place. They did their job, now it was management's turn to deliver ... and they didn't. I'm far from Solskjaers biggest fan (I'd happily replace him with Poch on the spot if there was a chance), but neither he nor the players deserve to be hung out to dry like that. Solskjaer will inevitably take the fall in a couple of months, but really, the problems lie somewhere else completely.

Okay, I'll agree that United took care of their own business in that regard, but they also got extremely lucky.
Other teams faltered down the stretch (Spurs/Leicester) and United got a lot of their injured players back fully fit after a huge break.
That being said, I'm glad United are getting kicked in the face after they came out and swung their dicks around stating that they were going to 'Take Advantage' of the COVID woes of other clubs.
