Congratulations 🙏🏽 @B_Fernandes8
The first United player to win the PFA POTY in over 15 years...
Despite the critics rightfully earning recognition of peers and rivals
A testament of hard work and effort
Hopefully we won't wait another 15 years for a next Mens United PFA
Manchester United is bigger than football...
The brand is MASSIVE
People have been speaking about this for years
When companies grow bigger than forces that should keep them in check, it's good for them but bad for everyone else
This should be profoundly worrying for fans
Avram Glazer has told an audience of financiers that sports teams at Manchester United’s level are not dependent on success on the pitch for commercial power.
United’s co-owner was making a rare speaking appearance at Deutsche Bank’s inaugural Sports Investment Conference in London. Sources with knowledge of the event — talking anonymously to protect relationships — said he argued his club’s value is incubated from the effects of sporting variance in the same way that the New York Yankees and Dallas Cowboys still stand out as major global brands.
Glazer was asked by an audience member about the correlation between results on the pitch and a club’s commercial pull. His response bears similarity to the feedback Ed Woodward, United’s former executive vice-chairman, gave during an investor call in May 2018.
Woodward was asked by a shareholder if the improved performance in the Premier League, when Mourinho raised the side from sixth to runners-up, had been a factor in another set of record financial accounts, with United making £590million in annual revenue. Woodward replied: “Playing performance doesn’t really have a meaningful impact on what we can do on the commercial side of the business.”

These comments are designed to placate investors worried about Uniteds present footballing condition
"Don't worry you'll get you ROI whether we perform or not..."
He could've said they plan to get United back performing well but no
He said the TRUTH..

This is where fans need to come in
Theyre the only stakeholders of the club that wont benefit from commercial success
Fans want to see the club do well at football not a P&L statement
Fans need to be the ones to create the pressure and demand success

Looked at my club and sighed
Consistency
Strategic Visioning
We keep taking staff from clubs without understanding the processes behind the success in the first place...
Villa have progressed well past couple years
With our resources only thing holding us back is vision
Aston Villa held an important working meeting today to plan the club's future and lay the foundations for its long-term sporting and institutional project.
The meeting brought together Nassef Sawiris, the club's Chairman and Unai Emery alongside President of Football Operations Roberto Olabe and Director of Football Operations Damián Vidagany.
The discussions focused on jointly planning the club's long-term strategic direction, with positive discussions establishing a clear commitment beyond 2029 for the joint development of the club under the sporting leadership of Unai Emery based on the shared ambitions and common goal to reach excellency and keep growing during the next years.
The objective is clear: to build an ambitious, competitive Aston Villa capable of taking on the biggest challenges and achievements.
Exactly
The players HAVE quality
But the consistency is needed
Can't afford to drop pace against Villa
Roma was a game of two halves
Need to see that intent continuously
Not only when we're 2-0 down...
This comes back to what I keep saying
3% less in the 2nd half
Less poss. but more meaningful, more purposeful poss.
When we play faster, with closer combinations we play better
Need to see that 2nd half performance more
This is a fraction of what the players are capable of
Replying to @FOBSVR
2nd half was far more urgent, more simple
We got closer together worked the combinations and passed forward
62 LESS passes from us in the 2nd half
Thats insane
More insane is Roma couldn't cope
0.00xG for the entire half
Shouldn't take us being 2-0 down to play like this...
MUN v ROM
Como game was so bad didn't even bother to give a breakdown🤣
The performance against Chelsea for 45 minutes was mildly acceptable
Getting that for the full 90 should be the goal
Kobbie being back big for Carrick
Kobbie x Baleba would be our most balanced midfield
Idk
I feel like I interpreted this completely opposite
He over engineered tactics first half imo
Tried too hard to beat Gasperini tactically
Bait the m2m then exploit the spaces they left
Kept knocking the ball around looking for the spaces
