By the way, let it be known that ALL OF US associated with Manchester United Football Club are the reason why we're in this mess. The FANS — For massaging average players' egos, praising them for doing the bare minimum, and making some feel bigger than the club instead of demanding higher standards. The PLAYERS — For not doing the basics on the pitch, being lazy, and not working hard enough for the badge. The MANAGER — For favouritism, poor game management, and not being tactically good enough for a club the size of United. The BOARD & OWNERS — For going with the cheaper option of giving Carrick the job permanently instead of sticking with the original plan of getting a top-level coach, for not backing him enough last summer, and now allowing this crisis to continue.

I'll tell you this for free, the players have STOPPED playing for Carrick. Right thing to do is replace him immediately, but then you trust our clueless board to keep him till December. Pathetic!!!
