Are you being serious?Kane is not elite. He shows up against shit teams but doesn't show up against good teams or when it matters consistently enough.
Time and time again, he's shown to be a flat track bully. You can't coach that out of him.

How long did it take Ferguson to get his shit together at United before it clicked?

There’s always such an over reaction when we lose. Conte has been here a matter of months yet people expect us to be prime Barcelona. It’s almost like people forget what we’ve seen from a lot of these players for the last few years.
It’s no coincidence that the two he has brought in now seem to look like two of our most important players. If we can get in who he wants and get rid of those he doesn’t in the summer then we will be ok next season.
Thing is, Ronaldo at 37 is like Teddy Sheringham say at 30, he's a freak of nature.

You can imagine that he takes care of himself to an obsessive degree, much more than his team mates, fair play to him.
The cunt.
Nah I'd say top 6 and he's good as golden with the higher upsNeed several players in thst team who can take on players, have pace and a free kick expert. Why does kane think hes a free kick expert. Crap last night. Not sure on conte future. If we sneak top 4 then its ben a half decent season.
Pretty much.
I think most over reaction is simply disappointment. Yesterday another example and worse was maybe you can't help but think, Ronaldo in our side even at 37 and we win. Madness.
I agree that we need to give Conte a lot more time but he would need to be 100% committed to the required rebuild and of course would need players as close to his preferred options as possible.
But there are other teams who are no worse than us now and the likes of Newcastle in particular are going to get much much stronger. United are also likely to be a lot better although Ronaldo staying will hinder that progress.
Ronaldo has been poor for about 3 months now, very much showing his 37 years, generally been a divisive figure in the Old Trafford dressing room and on one of the worst goal scoring droughts of his career.Thing is, Ronaldo at 37 is like Teddy Sheringham say at 30, he's a freak of nature.

I didn’t see much difference between the team that beat us 3 nil under Nuno an yesterday. Maybe yesterday they looked more confident. I was at the 3 nil defeat earlier in the season and they looked very fragile at the start of the game. We were shocking but back then they were pretty bad too. I suspect had they not just got whacked by Man City in the last game (something I think can’t be overlooked as a factor) then things might have been different too.
Basically what I’m trying to say about Man U is that they are miles off. It is a bigger ship to turn around than us.
In terms of Conte, if we have a good end to the season and he feels we are getting in and getting rid of the players he wants in the summer then I wouldn’t be surprised if he sat down with Levy and signed a new contract. But let’s not forget that we have an option for another year so could well just action that in May if both parties are happy to crack on. Either of those needs to happen I think.
But please tell me who the feck is the alternative? he doesn’t need us, we need him more…….we’ve won diddly squat in years, yes we came close but so what no prises for 2nd he’s a winner proved time and again he’s done it, he gets backed by Levy and he can salvage what dregs there is in our current squad cos let’s face it he’s stuck with a good few of them put in his men then we are on to a winner no fussed which formation couldn’t care a jot long as we compete and win.A while. Was younger though but good point.
But there is so much to do.
Ronaldo was not really Cuti's man. Varane who made a decoy run and dragged him away to create space for Ronaldo. If it's Varan scoring from a different delivery we would ask why no one Mark him. Ronaldo is a freak jumper, and Doherty stood no chance to compete against him. We just have poor defenders and got outsmarted by the more experienced players.I love Conte, but knowing Cuti and his aerial ability, WHY THE FUCK DID HE THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE ROMERO MARK CR7?
6 years.......and the signing of Cantona made the biggest differenceHow long did it take Ferguson to get his shit together at United before it clicked?
There you go then! But, yes I know that was 30+ years ago things have changed the world has changed football has changed……..we’ve nothing to lose+we’ve got time to a point likes of Kane & Son they are on the turn but if Conte gets the right back up the next two seasons we could reap the rewards…..

Doherty was which is probably worseI love Conte, but knowing Cuti and his aerial ability, WHY THE FUCK DID HE THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE ROMERO MARK CR7?
Because he didn't have Dr Tottenham to help him with his dodgy hip last week :contelol:What annoys me though, is that he apparently had a ‘dodgy hip’ last week but was banging in a screamer this week. Why he didn’t he do what he did last night against Man City?![]()
