Id say It is their single biggest problem and can be seen time and time again over the last few years. When things don't go their way they completely lose their cohesion and give up. The biggest example of this is obviously the Liverpool 7 goal defeat.
How do you fix a team that won't put it all on the line for the club? It's a big issue that isn't easily solved.
Yes but it's not the only one
Does Man U have a problem in- Yes. Doesn’t matter what Yes there is are problems everywhere
Onana and Hoolund very very bad player
Who is this Hoolund?
Hoo?
Mentality is for sure one of the problems along with a pile of many others
just score first against us and we frantically run on the ground
comparison to real madrid they conceded a goal against Napoli and within a minute or so replied back with a banger of a goal
would you ever think after el classico if real loses can you imagine seeing vini patrying or rodrygo partying ofc no
but after the loss against city rashford was reportedly seen partying the same night
rashford is not a bad player but its all about the mentality and the willingness for the team and not just playing for the paycheck
Rashford’s was a pre-planned birthday party. It was not some random night out. I understand how bad in PR terms that is but I also understand him doing it as a United fan.
United have many many many problems, mentality is just one of them.
They have a lack of quality in the starting XI and next to no depth, they have players on massive wages for absolutely no reason, and they like many other teams are struggling with injuries, another big problem they have is their best players can't play the way the best teams in the league play, and likely how ETH wants to play
Well "Sir" Ole legacy bro
They do, but they’ve also pulled out last minute points several times this season which shows me there’s something there.
It's the top 4 is a trophy mentality everyone bar City seem to have coming home to roost.
It's probably a bit of everything. Mentality, questionable decisions in transfer windows, strained relationships with key players (from Ronaldo to Maguire and now Sancho), and a reluctance to make significant changes in tactics.
Sure, injuries didn't help either, but I'm struggling to notice any on-field improvement since ETH took charge at United...
Nah we're just trash all round, any team that loses to us should be embarrassed.
What Manchester United have is a horrible coach.
What Manchester United have are banal players who cost many millions and who protect each other by defending mediocrity.
What Manchester United has is unambitious fans who forgive this manager everything and blame the board.
As someone has already pointed out Manchester United has stopped in time.
I think it all comes from the management after all.
Remember Ronaldo's interview with Piers Morgan, all of the stuff he said seems to be true and it is just sad that the team hasn't made any progress at all during the last 10 years.
United fans have been saying this for years. Its not a revelation.
All of these intangibles like mentality, experience, composure start to come out when a big team performs consistently poorly, but I think the answer is a lot simpler. Transfer business from United, over the last 10 years, has been categorically horrendous. People bringing up mentality seem to imply that it’s the mentality that’s letting them down and that the players are losing because of their weak mentality - no, the team is just crap. It’s not a top 4 team. United have a weird propensity to sign glamorous players with strong resumes that drop off after 1-2 years, giving them high wages which restricts investment elsewhere. And after the 1-2 years is up, it’s rinse and repeat - no semblance of a plan, a project, or a cohesive pathway forward. Their team right now is only Europa League standard, which is why their performances have reflected that.
Feel like man utd only knows how to play the long pass no matter the situation. Win lose or draw it’s always long pass to the forwards which results in lost of possession and a lack of control over the game giving the opposition chances to score
Mentality? I think before mentality the more pressing problem is positioning and in game management.
Idk maybe they is and Maybe they isn't
The whole club is rotten. I hope Sir Jim drains the swamp and get united performing and running like a modern football club but not losing that heritage the club has. Unfortunately Man Shitty is the blue print for a modern day club.
They have a goalkeeper problem
I m Galatasaray fan but ı was surprised that Galatasaray beat Man United and Man United finished 4th in Group A.
Yeah Onana can't hold all the simple beats
Poor mentalities, poor financial management, poor man management, poor recruitment, leech owners.
Any manager that takes the utd job would struggle. Any success that happens will be short term success until major changes happen throughout the club from top to bottom.
United will struggle until Glazers get lost from this club. Period.
Wingers not crossing has been an issue for the goal scoring part, but I can imagine the issues with VAR screwing them over every game can’t help the mentally, looks like that has stopped recently, players on big wages isn’t an issue really they have justified those wages, players of the calibre of varane and casemiro for example. The transfer side is back room, the owners only care about the money coming in, when we reached the CL in the past, it’s felt like the owners just decided, that will do, and then not spend, and then sacking manager, rinse and repeat, basically no progress as a result and a load of players coming for projects that don’t happen
