The Manchester United Thread

What WILL push the stock up and down, is largely down to where United finish, what United win, and how much good exposure United get.
 
Pogba has been non existant really. Like I said, he's overrated.

Ok, i've been quiet till now on whole this Pogba thing.
Is Pogba really such a big difference on the pitch for Juventus and France? Are there players who can do similar job but go under the radar? What exactly is Pogba? What kind of midfielder? He seems decently rounded with good technique. For me - he's not the final piece, not for that price anyway.

He can be the most enjoyable or the most frustrating player, unfortunately a lot of fans will be disappointed if they expect to see a player worth £100m. It's not like Ronaldo or Bale.
 
This has been one of the poorest tournaments in overall quality I can remember, Not one stand out side.

This final just encapsulates the poor standard overall.

You should try saying that at shareholder meeting. People expect longterm prospects from their stock, spending a 100 million just because you can is out of the question.

Most shareholders are pretty against cash hoarding and a reluctance to invest.

It's not £100m that'd never be seen again. It's £100m into an asset. He would add significant value via - hopefully - improved team performances. On pitch success is by far the biggest factor in the share price. Also, he'd retain significant value if we wished to sell him on in the future and he'd generate an awful lot of off pitch revenue.

And to make it even more odd there have been some absolute stonkers of goals, when the beeb showed their goal of the tourney contenders earlier some of of them have been of the highest quality

It's actually because he's been playing as a holding mid all game.

he's made the most passes on the pitch, but they been distributory passes rather than incisive.

Why Deschamps has set it up that way is beyond me.

True, Deschamps doesn't utilise him well at all this tournament in my opinion.

I don't rate Deschamps as a manager at all, he's got lucky having a good squad and poor opposition. Not even using Martial hardly at all this tournament is a joke.

You play Kante behind him and Matuidi.

And now France may pay for it.

And there's another completely out of context to the rest of the game.

Some of Dechamp decisions have been head scratching!
 
Once Portugal fell away from trying to press, he needed to free Pogba, and didnt. Then he brings on Gignac, when it should have been a double sub of Martial and Kante on to go 4-3-3.

I liked how he brought a player who is a great goal threat from the wings, and a player who hasn't played on the wings in a while / has been doing really well as a striker, then played the latter on the wing and didn't play the former at all. Michael *** got **** from people for saying pre-tournament that Conte was by far the best manager there but even that seems like an understatement now. From Roy to Deschamps to Low, this has got to be one of the most tactically awful tournaments I've ever seen. They all seemed to think they were playing in 2012.

And it led to such a low quality tournament. Even Conte has now bolted to club football.

I was wondering why United were going to make a holding midfielder the most expensive transfer in history.
