The Manchester United Thread

Think we're just gonna have to get use to Fellaini. Moyes likes him and what he brings and can't see many being sold this Summer. We will keep a few who are happy to be squad players most probably like Young, Fellaini maybe Darmian. And just add to the starting 11 with quality starter signings.
If Moyes likes him Moyes can have him ;)
 
Probably going for Ronaldo, Messi, and every other player 'signed' by United as well.......

Clubcall. And they were relatively sane, believable rumours compared to the 99% utter garbage that goes on now with transfer windows!

I remember watching the scores if you didn't have a game on Ceefax. Page 302 for the football. Page 303 for the First Division scores live. NEVER forget those numbers which is mad (and somewhat sad) when you think about it. And the 10/15 second delay whatever it was between pages turning over. That used to kettle yer head in frustration!


*Edit* Now you got me remembering ****** Ceefax! The tables page ..... You missed the First Division, and you had to sit through like another billion until it went through every British league and scrolled back round. Same if you didn't read real fast on the news pages the one bit on your club. Used to drive you nuts!

Haven't watched the u21's as much as I would've liked to this season, but Olesunde always impresses me (as has Kenyon on the rare occasions I caught him).
Yeah been impressed with him in his first season. Especially as he's played CB, RB, RW and has done well in all tbh. Has decent pace good strength and athleticism. And is a good dribbler and a good passer. Can see him as a FB that can fill in at CB. Will see how he develops next year before gaging if he has a chance here. On other u23 news lot of talk Harrop has asked to leave in the Summer. Shame really he has been very consistent this year. Not sure he's good enough to be a starter but squad player sure. But at his age maybe better for him to go to a mid to lower prem or even Champuonship team and work his way up. Way more talented than Drinkwater was and he's had a good career.

One of the the good things I like about our academy. They get good coaching not just football but life as well. And if they don't make it here, they go onto have good playing careers elsewhere. Either in Prem or Championship.
 
Just watching the Madrid game atm. James certainly putting in a shop window performance. There basically playing the B team and its still over 200m worth of players. Now that's a squad!

Darmian: "I don't think it's the right time to speak about my future. Now is the time to think about playing. End of the season we'll see."
 
He has barely rotated at all tbh, apart from Tuanzebe, that is a very strong team.

Edit: Let me reword that, he has rotated, but it's a strong team given our injuries. Stronger than I expected for sure.
 
at least rooney still good from set pieces....oh yeah hes awful at that too
