For me, so long as players like Rashford, Martial, Fred, Maguire, McTominay and the youth players coming through are playing for the manager he should be given time while Woodward unfucks the gently caress he's responsible for

100%. I'm still Ole in, but I still have absolutely zero faith in Woodward unfucking anything. He just isn't up to the job, and should be kicked out ASAP with an actual talented DoF installed immediately.

I'm not under any illusions about the scope of the challenge ahead of United, but Woodward's doddering antics will just make everything so much more complicated and painful. United trying to sign Young on for another year is just the lovely cherry on top of the sundae, and an indicator that it's still the same old poo poo: instead of properly rebuilding, Woodward is trying to hold on to players who should've been hosed off years ago.

listen, they traded the opportunity to sign a player (but only after 9 other teams have signed a player from a very small group of available players) for free for the possible opportunity to spend more money that they may or may not have on something else. It's very simple, you see.

MLS operates under the principle that ifs and buts actually are candy and nuts, assuming they are consumed within the third uneven transfer window subsequent to the acquisition of the ifs and/or buts.

Surely the Manchester United franchise has experienced this same situation when they drafted Pogba from Juventus in return for 100000 Raiola allocated pounds.

I haven't actually seen him play much but my understanding is he had a purple patch last year (?) and has been pretty poo poo since then. is that correct? in any case a proper backup for Kane has been a need for a while

This is the case, but the team as a whole has been poo poo so he it might not be his fault entirely.

The Young saga has reached Arsenal levels of comic absurdity.

United discovered that Young has signed a pre-contract with Inter, and are now forced to keep making increased offers to a 35 year old they were willing to let run down his contract just a few weeks ago, like he was a key part of the team or something. To his credit Young has been turning them down, but apparently there have been "several" increased offers already.

Fire. Woodward. Now.

Indeed. It made all the sense in the world to bin Young, but something's made United poo poo their pants over it very recently and now they're trying to beg a 35 year old to rip up his pre-contract with Inter and stay for ... reasons.
