The Manchester United Thread


"Juanma López, representative of Alvaro Morata, is in the Santiago Bernabéu today trying the future of the striker of Real Madrid . The agent arrived at 16:30 hours to a meeting that will put on the table the strong interest of Manchester United for the white youth. Morata wants to clarify his future this week (on Friday he marries in Venice) and the English club is tightening to close the operation."​

Cute that everyone came to help :) But yeah got it few seconds later :D

I wonder how buying so many foreign players will affect united homegrown rule and wanting to sell Smalling?

No HG issue at United. People forget the likes of Pogba, Pereira etc. are HG.

He's been like a budget version of Fabinho this season; been playing in his usual RB position but started a few occasions as a DM. Over 30 apps this season with 6 assists (a few in the Champions League), not a bad campaign. I really liked him
 
any news on carricks contract situation?is there an offer of another year on the table?
 
I keep thinking about Pogba/Mbappe in Frances 442 formation last night and how United and Pogba/Rashford/Martial would thrive in it, especially if we sign Morata/Perisic?

We would get destroyed against any other top 4 challenging team with that formation. France don't even play like that 99% of the time. And they was playing a **** England side.

I suppose, just miss the old 442 days and love how it works for Monaco and worked for France, but you're prolly right!

Yers can barely beat any top 4 challenging team as it is so it might just work. :D

It worked for Monaco because the 2 CMs Fabinho and Bakayoko actually played more like DMs sitting deep and letting the 4 attackers do quick counter transitions. Would be a huge waste of Pogba in that system. Jose will stick with his tried and tested 433/4231.

Its like new teenage trend to play 3 at back. Seems like everyone "first time" saw it with Conte doing it and so many trying to do the same.Wenger does it now considering his comments after first singing, even our Estonia national squad now play 3 at back...

LVG tried to play 3 at the back but couldn't pull it off
 
We saw last night that 3 at the back can fail miserably if the opposition has a superior midfield. Saw it in the CL final too
