My people, make we yarn wetin dey happen for Manchester United as dem don fall out of FA Cup again. No be small matter o! The fans don dey vex, e be like say dem no go fit collect any trophy this season. Na wah!
As we dey enter January, United don already know say dem go play only 40 matches this season, the shortest season wey dem don get since 1914-15. Just imagine! Much palaver for Old Trafford as dem fall for Brighton, and dat na the first time since 1981-82 wey dem dey knock out from both domestic cups in first game. Na wah!
Brighton sabi do dia homework well, and na dem show say United no get the energy to break dem down. Crowd for Old Trafford dey yawning like say dem no see wetin dey happen. Na so e be when your team no dey deliver, fans go just dey look like statue.
Darren Fletcher wey dey stand in as caretaker manager, no fit do much in the two games wey he handle. Na only back four he dey sabi set; all the wahala wey Amorim and Ten Hag dey carry come, he no fit solve am. Dem dey play pass side by side, whole set of players dey fear to even take risk! As dem dey sidon dey pass ball, confidence don really waka go!
Brighton don come do wetin United suppose do, plenty goals and quick passes, no be like United wey dey play like say dem dey learn football for the first time. Danny Welbeck don show say dem no need am again as he hit dem with goals like say na free range chicken. Na wah!
Fletcher try to change tactics but no be wetin go fit save face. The fans dey expect their team to shine, but looks like dem dey drift away from glory. Na only Benjamin Sesko, wey get small consolation goal, carry some hope come, but hope no fit chop rice o!
As dem dey prepare for two big matches against bitter rivals, Manchester City and Arsenal, wetin be dem supposed do? Fletcher don dey talk say if dem fit bring back fit players, dem go fit reach Champions League. But everybody dey wonder, how una go qualify when dem dey smell trouble everywhere?
Manchester United don dey face plenty wahala and no be for the pitch alone o, e don dey for the board level too. Fans don dey shout, fuming for change, as many don hold banner against the minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe. Na serious gbege wey dey happen, fans dey hungry for success, no be all these “play-slow” football wey dey vex dem.
Now, make we see how this season go turn out. United fans don begin to feel like say dem dey repeat history, no trophy and small matches sure pass every week. Na people wey dey protest toward the Fulham match, go see wetin dem go do. Na true time go tell if these changes go bring any light to this dragging season!
