Man United urged to look up to Man City!

Following Manchester City's 3-1 victory over Manchester United, United's key player Casemiro shared his thoughts and attitude. He admitted that if United could play like City, it would be ideal, considering City as a model to learn from, describing them as a mirror, consistently performing exceptionally well. It's noteworthy that Casemiro has experienced the pinnacle with Real Madrid, yet after the match against Manchester City, he expressed such sentiments, leaving many feeling helpless.

During the match, although United took the lead and scored first, the final result remained unchanged. With a significant difference in shots at 27-3 and the immense gap in performance, it was clear to both United players and fans that City's strength was formidable. Disappointment wasn't just limited to Casemiro; executives at the Glazer-owned Manchester United were equally dismayed. Having hoped to lead the team back to its former glory after acquiring Manchester United, they encountered a disappointing outcome in the derby. Reportedly, after watching the match, executive vice-chairman of the Glazer group, Ratcliffe, left the stadium with a grim expression, silently contemplating their next steps.

Casemiro's remarks serve as a poignant reminder to the Glazer group. Apart from expressing disappointment with the match, he emphasized the importance of external individuals taking charge of the club while eagerly striving to elevate the club's standards. He hopes the Glazer group and the new leadership can grow together with the club because, for Manchester United, having people with aspirations for progress is crucial. Each statement directly points to the group and the owners, indicating a fearless attitude from Casemiro.

It's likely that many Manchester United players may share similar thoughts and attitudes. Despite their subpar performance in the match, they still have the right to feel disappointed. Facing the upcoming tasks, United needs substantial financial investment to address issues in the forward line and defensive end. Furthermore, have they decided whether to support Ten Hag as the team's head coach or opt for another candidate? The future collaboration of experienced veterans like Casemiro remains unresolved.

In conclusion, Manchester United faces numerous daunting challenges, and solving these issues remains a severe test. Although Guardiola "praised" United after the match, feeling they performed well and have a chance to move forward, United fans, players, and executives alike are well aware of their problems and are unlikely to accept such "praise."

To the numerous sports fans on the forum, do you still hold out hope for Manchester United? What do you think United can do to address their current issues?

For me, Manchester United seems hopeless for a while, unless there's a change in leadership.

After Sir Alex Ferguson retired, Manchester United plunged into endless chaos, while Manchester City also experienced numerous failures before Pep Guardiola took charge. Thus, a good coach is crucial for a team. However, the current Manchester United manager, Ten Hag, doesn't seem to fit the bill. Ten Hag appears to be self-centered, rarely making high-priced signings apart from those benefiting himself. Despite boasting the highest win rate in Manchester United's history, Ten Hag's tenure hasn't instilled much hope. Therefore, it's highly probable that he will be sacked in the summer. This perpetuates the chaos at Manchester United. Personally, I had high hopes for Solskjaer as a young coach with the club's DNA. With proper nurturing, he could have been the long-term solution. Unfortunately, he faced criticism from all sides and was eventually sacked. I believe Zinedine Zidane would be a suitable replacement for Manchester United. Top-tier coaches are unlikely to risk their reputations at United, while lesser-known ones might struggle to manage the club's influential figures and legendary players' criticism. Zidane, having an illustrious playing and coaching career, is immune to such criticisms. It remains to be seen if Zidane would be interested in managing Manchester United.

Now Manchester United should face their own problems.

Manchester United's revival will take a long time, but it's a good start now that Glazer is no longer in charge. Casemiro won't stay at Manchester United for much longer either; he might move to West Asia as soon as next season.

The current Manchester United is not even close to Manchester City. While City is united and disciplined, United appears scattered and undisciplined. Without a complete change, it might be difficult to compete.
