The Manchester United Thread

Welfare has been at it's lowest point for years. Use of food banks has jumped from 20,000 to well over a million people. Meanwhile hundreds of billions of pounds have been made to key and frontline services, while banks and corporations pay less tax than ever.

Hint: Poor people arent the ******* problem, and neither are immigrants. Neither have had a fraction of the financial impact put upon them.

Also not to mention things like the privatisation of Social housing, the privatisation of public services, and now the privatisation of our infrastructure

Didn't see that Bujakaa, sorry. Cheers for posting. The bottom line is, all the stick he's received in over the season has been WAY O.T.T. - and generally from the usual suspects.

If it weren't for sloppy finishing and at times, astonishing keeping, he would be bang up there with De Bruyne, Zaha & co in the assists chart, and with a few more goals to his own

Yes he loses the ball, yes he will take too much out of it here and there... but he tries things, he expresses himself, and I can't fault a man for that. It's why Zidane stood out so much to everyone, and regarded by many as the best central midfielder to play the game, he tried things, which isn't as common as it sounds in a central midfield position, there's not many of these type of players that come along. Like Zidane, Pogba is a match winner, and throughout his career he will produce moments of brilliance when it matters, like at Selhurst on Wednesday night.

A touchy subject that I tread with caution but I wouldn't blame them per se, more the government control over them that has allowed them to flood in and claim benefits.

When people say immigrants aren't a problem they are not, the government creates the problem. But when I go in to my local town these days (currently residing in Coventry at the moment) there is more foreign people than English. No I am not even exaggerating there either. Maybe it's different elsewhere but here in Coventry it's a mess.

Jose Mourinho to #MUTVHD: "Bailly can't play tomorrow but his injury isn't as serious as we thought. Smalling is coming back for this game."

Mourinho on possible departures
“I never stop people from getting a different direction. If that moment arrives in January we have to react.”

I know its a mess mate but, Erm, Im much older than you and I remember that Coventry has "always" been like that - ie more "foreigners" than English. In actuality all the arguments about benefits claiming by immigrants are not borne out by the numbers (for one the money generated by the same foreigners as a workforce is much more than the benefits claimed). History goes in circles. We ve had a huge global financial crisis for 8 years now. In times like this the easiest thing for politicians to do is to blame the alien element (the people suffering financial hardship are much more malleable to this manipulation). Last time there was a huge recession was in the early 1930s and in Germany especially (but also other parts of Europe - Italy eg) the jews, communists and gays were blamed and we all know how that ended.

I know this debate isn't relevant to the thread at the moment, but I'll just add to this that every economic study of which I'm aware shows immigration has an overwhelmingly positive impact on public finances. Immigrants tend to come here to work when they're young fit and able, and require the least taking care of, and return to their home countries when they're old. They're also far less likely than natives to claim welfare.

Pereira has been doing very well I believe, but not sure so recently as I haven't been watching La Liga much.

Januzaj's still as ***** as ever. But then he's currently at Sunderland who are utter ***** under David Moyes Football GENIUS! so you're gonna' learn nottin' from this season even if you dared hope you would.
 
Januzaj started off well at Sunderland most probably there best player attacking wise. Then obviously in a **** team it's hard to have any impact in an attacking sense. Then he's been injured ever since last week, when he returned to the first team. Periera has been fantastic mainly on the left for Granada. He had been there best player by a mile. And has added that much missing work rate and consistency that he was lacking. Could of been in double figures for Assists if his team mates weren't so *****. Scored his first goal a couple weeks back, was a beauty to! Mou has been very impressed with him this season and stays in constant contact after each of his games. Periera himself said Mourinho has been very supportive and gave him good advice and encouragement. And he's looking forward to returning to fight for a place in the first team squad.
 
WBA vs Utd u18s finished 2-3 Hamilton with 2 Gomes from the spot. Could of been far more, played well. Missed a peno. Tanner at RB ago wasn't the best. Good way to bounce back after the dissapiontment of the FA Youth cup.

Solid team. Would rather see Martial in there instead of Rooney or Lingard, but good team.
