The quality of posts here has taken a severe knock recently.

Oh shut the fuck up.

Downing tools is a loaded term and I don’t think they’re by any means near open revolt.

They’re going through a pretty poor run of form which could very well correct itself at some point, it’s just the cycle of boom and bust that Man U have gone through constantly since Fergie left.

What I’m not sure of is if ETH has the man management skills to address poor morale in the team, obviously just going by impressions but he doesn’t seem to be an arm round the shoulder type at all and as has become a stereotype, modern players don’t react well to the old school, disciplinarian types anymore.

I think this is an unnecessary addition, we can already tell through body language and lip reading the nature of players’ complaints. The yellow card rule has only been truly implemented this season, we’re yet to see the effects of it but inevitably players will start to tone it down (at least imo).
