Circus ManUnitus - Nobody's At The Wheel

[clownfoot]

A lot of pearl clutching about Martinez’s comments this morning. Heard a clip of Walcott on 5live saying it’s disrespectful to the manager, but he’s clearly not blaming the manager and calling out someone above him.

The media love when a player speaks out but hang them out to dry when they do

He's basically saying that they should have brought in someone to replace him.

Martinez made to apologize and fined by Utd. What was our response to Romero’s almost exact rant last season?

Not sure what the best course of action should be in that situation.

Utd have it right. If you don't manage these situations then you set a wrong culture. Martinez admitted that it was not the time or place to express those views and apologised. Fair play to him.

I don't recall us fining Harry for the Miami nonsense. He never apologised at the time. As you say, we didn't manage the Romero situation well. He certainly didn't apologised. Then we do try to change the culture and not tolerate the social media stuff from Richi, fans turn on the club. He never apologised for the Insta post but we seemed to have moved on. He never got a fine either.

This stuff is important. It's about making sure no player is bigger than the club they play for and follow the club's protocols on comms. They're all good guys who care but that's not the point.

United getting anything right would be some achievement.

I swear, anytime any of the other bigger clubs do brick, United does it's hold my beer impression, they have to be the biggest circus.
