United and Barca are both works in progress, the difference is what Barca achieved so far this season is far more important and noteworthy than United's progress under ETH. And a big credit to that goes to Xavi. Those are the facts, what the results tell us, the rest is moaning and hating.

Nope.

Cant compare.

Barca are in a two team league with far less quality across the board.

Xavi been in job longer and has better squad.

Man Utd not even in top 4 last season and lot of good coaches/teams to beat out to even get there.

The thing I like the most about Xavi as a manager is that he isn't deluded. He clearly knows he's a shite manager and plays the "mind games" accordingly.


ETH is levels above. He has elite potential. Yet to prove he IS elite though.
Not even Prime Pochetino level yet.

It was an awful showing, no denying it, but 7-0 is maybe a bit too much for what we saw today (Liverpool has 2.7 xG).

It is a terrible result, but in a league with that much attacking talent, it can happen. The important thing is what happens at the end of the season, if he ends with top4 and a couple of trophies that is a big success for a United who weren't expecting anything at the start of it.

Not the first time it happens this season that they are played off the park. 3rd time IIRC they suffered heavy beatdowns.

Do you take this into account when you judge their season, or he gets a free pass?

More shame Barca with better squad being out done by them.

Maore shame Barca with better squad being out done by them.

They are erratic, but good enough to be 3rd in EPL.

For me Barca has the better squad (not in the 2nd game though), but the beauty of football is that most teams can make it a game on their day.

Tales of Liverpool demise have been greatly exaggerrated.

2 New CM:
Caicedo - they can easily get him
Bellingham - he's a Liverpool fan, but hard to sign

1 New CB:
????
Just know Gomez should never play for Liverpool again.
