Who was in the wrong here and why was it Fergie?

>>75991968

He even dmitted he was wrong but the Fletcher suspensions kind threw the balance out of the whole team.
Still doubt they would've won if he just set up the usual way

>>75991968
You now remember Anderson

>Anderson vs that midfield
horrifying

>>75991968
>O'Shea
>Anderson
>Fat Rooney on the wing

That mentality right there is why they lost, as well as playing the wrong formation and the wrong people for it.

>Not stacking the midfield against Barca and forcing their team full of turbo manlets to run outside you along the wings against your powerful wingers/fullbacks and tire themselves out

>instead you let them play through the middle and turn you inside out for 90 minutes

Ferguson went senile after 08, he stopped buying good players and tried to sign young 3rd tier players and turn them into the next class of '92

He went full Wenger really

>Ronaldo
>Prime Rooney
>Scholes
>Vidic and Ferdinand
>Turbo Park
>Wise Man Giggs
>Evra

Then you back up these quality players with Championship tier footballers and force the core of your team to carry the weight.

Turned into a real jew with transfers in his later years

>Let the then worlds best player go to Real Madrid right before his prime
>You don't replace him with 3 tier one players to pick up the slack and instead sign people like Chris Smalling and Phil Jones

good post

>>75993327
Sounds more like he intentionally left the team to rot so that by the time he retires and a new manager comes in the team is absolut shit and people think it was all SAF magic keeping it together.

>>75993327
Yeah, Fergie also got lucky that Liverpool and Arsenal started going to shit as soon as Ronaldo got sold

>>75993327

>O'Shea
A really good defender at the time but lost ll his attacking force after one season, still get the idea of wanting to stop Barcas wingers
>Anderson
Forced into it due to Fletcher getting suspended
>Fat Rooney on the wing
He wasn't fat at that time and was incredible as a support player, that was around the time you could make an arguement for him being a top 3 player

>Not stacking the midfield against Barca and forcing their team full of turbo manlets to run outside you along the wings against your powerful wingers/fullbacks and tire themselves out
He actually did and thats why he lost. It was more that he stacked the midfield so much it became to offensive and thre was zero linkup between midfield and attack

>instead you let them play through the middle and turn you inside out for 90 minutes
Wrong. He did it the year before and thought it would work again

>Wise Man Giggs
Wasn't that good in his later years

>Let the then worlds best player go to Real Madrid right before his prime
For a world record and it was obviously he was oushing for the move. Even thoguh looking back the price was too low it was the right thing to do

>You don't replace him with 3 tier one players to pick up the slack and instead sign people like Chris Smalling and Phil Jones
Both very highly rated players but its always been a problem at United that they couldn't replace their legends. It not a problem thats exclusive to them though and Fergie done a great job diverting the rot

>Turned into a real jew with transfers in his later years
You really know nothing about Fergie

2/10 post

I wish I was on /sp/ when Pep exposed England 2 times in 3 years

>>75994505
You figured it out man. Remember, this guy actually forced Moyes on them which has set them back a decade. Suddenly Fergie looks even more brilliant.

>>75998932
Pep exposed literally everyone. People can say what they want but that team was different class, even when they lost it was by the skin of their teeth and they probably should have won.

butt hurt united fan.....face it, ur team is shit and fergie was shit

Regardless of what you think of ManU then and now, can we all agree that Van Der Sar was an amazing goalkeeper?

>>75991968
the question is how the fuck did he lose against fucking buyern in 2010

that was his biggest tactical fallacy

>>76002462
Yes.

>>76002462
Don't think anyone would contest this anyway

>>76002462
Of course he was
