I simply said that we employed the manager they sacked. I don’t think there’s any flaw in that logic. It’s a fact.
They did not improve after sacking Mourinho we are now 'lumbered' with. They were poor after the sack. They finished 6th. This season they were poor to start, with OGS almost gotten the sack too. Bruno is the man that they are improving and only after January they did. Hence I'm saying your implication that they improved seemingly after Mourinho left is not factually and chronologically correct.

So poor that the guy they brought in from Oslo to fill in for him was given the job on a permanent basis?

Righto.

United buying Bruno has been a huge boost for their season.
Former Fulham defender Brede Hangeland in the studio in Norway said, quote "upgrading your attacking midfielder from Jesse Lingard to Bruno Fernandes has to be the best change in a single position that any PL side has had in modern history".

He's not far wrong.

*Pedant alert*

Molde, not Oslo. Seriously, Molde is a tiny place on the other side of the country from Oslo so that matters. :p

Are we circumnavigating Europe all together next year maybe to avoid the virus.
With the start to the season we had, the change of manager and the poor play, the injuries and the fact at the out set of the year most optimism was replaced with apathy I don't know when people ever thought we were destined for Europe.

I'd stick to your Gaga mate.

Futures, yeah?

Yeah, a major fuck up, that only looks more reckless in retrospect.

We all knew at the time not getting one in was the end of our top 4 hopes. Well, I say everyone, everyone that doesn’t work at THFC. They were all perfectly happy not to get one in.

To be fair Son carried the can pretty well last season but we did also have Llorente too. Couldn't have foreseen Son having to play with a fracture for a whole game or having to be quarantined either.

Well, I did mention in January what do we do if Son gets injured. It was just so blatantly obvious we needed a number 9 in. Very frustrating. We all saw this coming.

It's ironic that the first game of the season between Chelsea and Utd was billed as 'Lampard Vs Ole, who will get sacked first'.

They've both gone on to do well and we're sitting here without Poch

money was there for both...unless the PD stuff was bullshit
I thought it was Gio or Bruno not both. That doesn't make sense because according to the itk in this site a deal was nixed for Bruno when the Gio deal finally got the green light ...

whoever is controlling Villa just held down triangle and now they are 1-0 down.

3 defenders coming back but Reina went for a run.
