Manchester United stooped to a new low on Thursday as they were defeated by Danish minnows FC Midtjylland in the UEFA Europa League.
Shrewsbury Town are now sat in the League 1 relegation zone after struggling to cope with life in League 1 after promotion to the division last season.
Shrewsbury boss Micky Mellon has urged his side to maintain their concentration when they face 11 time FA Cup winners Manchester United tomorrow night.
Shooting has become a foreign art to United’s players for a substantial part of this season and only recently in the Derby and Stoke games have we taken a more attacking approach, loosening the shackles to let the players express themselves. There are decisions that have got to be made and you will be held accountable for that and that’s me at Fleetwood and Barnsley and Shrewsbury.
“Wayne Rooney has come out and said blame the players which is totally right and I totally agree”.
“Has the manager, be it Louis van Gaal or David Moyes, been in charge of the recruitment?” Allegri at Juventus is doing a great job, I can’t quite understand why everything is concentrated so much on these two guys.
“I think they need Mourinho and he needs them as well”.
“I’ve said if you don’t get excited about this then please move aside and give someone else a go because this is what football’s all about”, he said.
And if United could add a third victory in next Sunday’s Premier League home clash with Arsenal, it would make for a very good week indeed, with some momentum regained and the Red Devils still in the hunt for two trophies as well as a top-four finish.
“They are getting paid X amount of money to perform to the level they should be at that size of club and they have not done it. They have been poor but people write them off and you can never write them off”, Black, who is a United fan, told reporters.
