BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! You let Niasse score and he's worse than *****. Everton have been trying to give him away but still can't get rid of the fraud.

Hang your heads in shame!

Hardly something to be ashamed of losing 2-0 to a good and experienced Everton side. When most of our team are full of players that can still play for the u18s. Was a ***** game TBH didn't deserve to lose but that's what you get when you don't put away your chances, and have no real wingers or STRs at that age group.

Niasse. NIASSE! He makes Erik Meijer look deadly!
 
Talk going round Rooney starting tomorrow but will be back on bench for Stoke on Sunday. Can see this being the norm for Rooney now as long as we keep playing better and getting results.
 
Manchester United midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan is back in training and is expected to feature in the side’s Europa League clash with Zorya Luhansk.


Delighted to hear this. Now that Rooney's gradually being phased out, I think Mkhitaryan will be an absolute huge player for us this season, and I'd imagine sides would much rather us to play them without the Armenian than with him in the line-up. A match winner with pace, reckon he could have as much of an impact with us as Mane has had with Liverpool, once given a string of starts.

Little early to take that as gospel after one game.

No doubt, but as much quality and experience as Rooney has, and as much as Jose likes/liked him, you'd have to imagine in a toss up between him and one of Mourinho's quality summer signings, in regards to which one of the pair would be used more in a week in/week out situation, it'd have to be Mkhitaryan, especially after showing the balls to drop Rooney, and to be honest it would probably take just as much balls to leave Mata or Mkhitaryan out to return Rooney to the usual league starting XI. But that's just my opinion & nothing more than speculation.

Be interesting to see how Isco would fit in if he came in Jan as was more talk in Spanish press again today of him being our main Winter target. Maybe

Valencia-Smalling-Bailly-Shaw
Herrera-Pogba
Mky-Isco-Martial

then why all the talk about a new deal for mata?

Why not he's a good player and you need a good squad. Him and Isco would be great for that No10 spot. I think Isco would be an improvement on Mata. If it does not come off then I can see Mou going all out for Griezmann.
 
I could be completely wrong lads, but I wouldn't be too keen on Isco. Mata is one of the top #10's around in my opinion, lacks a little in pace & strength but more than makes up for it in other areas. But hey if it's just a short loan deal or whatever the rumour is, it couldn't hurt to have the option.

If we could get Griezmann next summer I'd have a permanent *****, but in this moment of time I'm treating it as nonsensical paper talk.

Don't think it's a lone. Not what Ballague and some Spanish media saying. Between 27-32m think he's better than Mata especially at dribbling and pace. And better defensively. Think Griezmann won't leave till 2018 till Simeone leaves and can't see them selling next summer due to transfer ban. Onless we slap down his release clause and he chooses to join as he now has no agent. Isco could be a great buy at that price and Mou loved him at Madrid.

First Tod. Now you. WAY too much homoeroticisim going on in this thread!

You guys are weird. I'm sticking to the wall in here!

Hahaha I play for the same side as you (I presume) but even if I didn't, nowt wrong with it :D
 
16 year old Brazilian defender/midfielder Matheus Marcosi is training with United this week. He's 1 of the lads from Desportivo Brasil that we have an option on and he's been over on trial multiple times already and impressed. JB who follows and knows a few coaches at youth level at Utd has heard if he impresses again this time we will take up the option to sign him.
 
I don't think Real will be willing to send Isco away, with the transfer ban and all, they need all the players they can have

There well stocked on attacking players with Benzema, Morratta, Ronaldo, Bale, James, Vasquez buy back option on Jesse if he does well at PSG plus Odegaard can play AMC and Asensio and have a couple of promising lads coming through the academy. 3 of those are guaranteed starters as we know which still leaves them plenty of rotation options in attacking areas.
