Permacrisis: a long period of great difficulty, confusion or suffering that seems to have no end.Lawrence Ostlere, Miguel Delaney and Richard Jolly assess Manchester United’s bleak start to the season after a 1-1 draw at Fulham, leaving them on five points from five games. Is Michael Carrick is better at one-off game plans than building a coherent long-term attacking structure? Despite some positive underlying stats, they discuss United’s heavy reliance on Bruno Fernandes, slow substitutions, and several atrocious performances. They also discuss the recruitment under INEOS, expensive signings such as Ugarte, Zirkzee and Andrey Santos, an aging squad and the lack of a consistent club ideology. Hosted on Acast.
