Greetings United fans,
I don't normally post on this page as I'm a Liverpool fan, but a pretty pragmatic one. Anyway I got kind of curious about the ramps situation and am friends with a few peeps in Madrid. I thought I'd share my info, the people I know don't believe ramps has any intention of leaving and is angling for a better contact, further still I'm told perez is about to relent and give it to him as he has been told by his coaching staff that funding someone of his experience, ability and nationality all in one package is impossible.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, be a great signing of you got him. Perez could still decide to sell but his people are strongly advising him not too

Everytime is says ramps just pretend it says ramos

Haha could this be more fishing?!

Didn't realize Mark Ramprakash was a) Of interest to United and b) under contract at Madrid.

I dunno what you mean by fishing. I'm a genuine poster, I'm sure any of the eds can confirm that I share info regarding Spanish and Italian transfers from time to time.
I'm not the type to wind people up of that's what you mean

Most big name players like to flirt with us to get themselves a bigger contract. I have no doubts this is what's happening here and in a week or two we will see the yellow bar on sky sports showing he has agreed a new deal. Becoming a very regular thing

Always been a fan of Mark Ramprakash. Went down in my estimations after strictly come dancing. Will certainly be back in the good books if he signs for United though.

Thanks Nevada, I think it's been accepted by many of the posters here that he's only wrangling, and with every player that ever lived being linked with United, we hold our breath until little ed is grinning in his golden eagle bowtie and star spangled cufflings, sitting next to '"said star" with a pen after signing on the dotted line, and holding up a jersey with his name on it. I've a t-shirt and on it Georgie Best is wearing che Guevara's hat, only legends need apply.

You're welcome penfold. Not all of us Liverpool fans harbour bitter hatred. BTW say hi to Dangermouse for me

You've made a couple of key errors in your post -
1. The assumption that your midfield 3 are enviable. Bruno yes. Donny maybe. Pogba? I wouldn't even want him in th city of Liverpool nevermind in the team.
2. Ole has improved individuals - I'd say this is his major weakness. He hasn't improved anyone and some players have gone backwards (wan bissaka and Maguire spring to mind)
3. Your attack are good - they're incredibly unreliable. One minute they bang in goals the next they are utterly toothless, that's not a good attack. Of those players mentioned maybe rashford would make it into arsenal, Everton or Leicester but he's no chance of getting in city or Liverpool.
The truth is the team you have isn't really good enough to challenge for anything. Equal parts luck and over achievement got you to third last year and I'd be very surprised if you repeat it this year.
Some things you get right -
Ole isn't good enough on any level. People keep saying he steadied the ship but it's sinking faster now than it even did under any previous manager so I'm not sure how anyone can say that without laughing. The ship ain't steady. He's also tactically inept, he has one way to play and it depends heavily on the other team feeling brave - most of the league isn't brave which is why he struggles.
You do say he's out of his depth so I think you're dead on.
You also mention he's had money, so many united fans seem to have collective amnesia when it comes to money spent, every manager has had more money to spend than most other managers in prem. Money isn't the issue - recruitment is. Specifically identifying the right players for the system you play, which brings us back to.
You correctly identify that ole has no real system. Which is why it's so hard for ed to buy players that are needed because. what do you need? Roberto Carlos speed wouldn't have helped you against that giants of turkey, that's poor communication on pitch intelligence and coaching.
It seems like I'm having a go but I actually respect the club united were and I'd like to see you be that club again but until everyone takes off the united VR glasses nothing will get fixed.

I can tell you right away that ole didn't get the job and you hired ancellotti instead you'd definitely be better off. I was shocked united didn't just throw the chequebook at him when he was available.
