A bit of a combination I would say. I remember when Zlatan signed for United and how absolutely atrocious the TV coverage in Sweden was. They were basically wanking themselves over every single thing he did.

Zlatan mania went mental over here when he arrived at United as well, the posting about him got obsessive tbh, you couldn't hear about United without some insane thing Zlatan had said or done being brought up shortly after. Funny though because I think he's still probably the best #9 United have had since he left.

I was a big fan of Ange before he arrived, and was really looking forward to him coming.

I don't have any personal disdain for him (note: people never use 'deign') as a person, but I am surprised just how defensive people are of him. He had a number of confrontations with fans over his time here and if he had a greek accent he would have probably been thought of a lot worse than he is in general (nothing against the greeks, but rather I think his aussie persona is disarming).

This isn't a judgement of his right to react, but rather when put into perspective alongside the atrocious level of league performance, and the factors he may or may not have contributed to, it seems a bit weird.
A lot of people didn't like Tim Sherwood for far less. It all feels like he did a grand job of convincing us all that we deserved the worst parts. The whole thing seems like we should be grateful for him doing the dishes after being a pretty horrific dinner guest for the whole evening

I've never seen anything quite like the levels of insanity over Ange. In fact, the last time I think anyone became so obsessed with some one so atrocious it ended up with the Manson incident.

Winter is low crime. Memphians are evolutionarily adapted to swimming through 80% humidity at 105°F in the summer but anything below 50°F and no one goes outside.

In reality, most areas of Memphis are fine. The stats are juiced predominately by some very, very bad areas that unless you're trying to score heroin, crack, or are looking for trouble you would not ever be in.

Let me know when you're around, I'll buy you a pint, keep you safe, and point you in the direction of more than just Elvis' house (which is a fantastic trip, especially in the holiday season).

Yeah you keep saying this and we all know what the agenda is .. it’s boring mate.

You make it all sound great - reality is balancing CL football with the Prem (much harder than balancing with EL) and fixing a mentality which allowed 22 league defeats. He has to take us up from 17th.

Leicster went from 14th to 1st a few years ago. The next year Chelsea went from 10th to 1st. Only last season a recently promoted team went from finishing 16th to finishing 10th this year.

Maybe we should have just employed their manager?

Talking about yourself here mate?

You are more obsessed with your hatred of him than I think 95% of people are with their liking of him 😘

Even more ironic is that he is literally speaking about our previous manager in the thread about our new manager, he speaks of a cult but I think he's projecting somewhat.
 
The spotlight now turns to the transfer window. Cannot predict how well Frank will do until we see what players are available. Now I fully expect anti Levy posters to expect very little but lets wait & see.
