The Manchester United Thread

Kind of happy, would of liked a winger, but considering we kept Pereira it's not all bad.
 
Not at all bothered about a winger. More concerned with seeing what Shaw can do, and then responding if necessary in January

Really pleased with the off field movements since last season also. Completely revamp the scouting network around the world, while signing some of the hottest talents in Europe. All youth sides should be stronger than last season. Which ain't bad considering out u18s were already blowing teams away scoring for fun. The u23s will be a **** of a lot better with a more balanced squad and a new manager in Sbragia who has done wonders before and in his time away from the club.

Also Mourinho has revamp and restructured the coaching staff in all departments. Looks like he's setting the ground work for a long stint here. Can only be bad for the rest of the league.

Meh not fussed about a winger. Let's see Shaw start ripping it up again :)
 
I'd like Mourinho to stay here for a long while, but sadly, in this modern age it is incredibly difficult.

Plus, things are going relatively well atm, it's when things start going sour that Mourinho's attitude might be tested.

Yeah I see what your saying. But let's be honest we run things in a completely different way to Chelsea and Madrid. Won't get no interference from the Glazers or Ed. Look at Inter yes he want there long, due to his ambition but least he was happy and left on good terms same for Porto. Think he's happy and can basically run the football side of things how he wants and will get backed financially. And on and off the field.
 
He can actually go that way often enough, as more times than not, keepers will try second guess him; ''Maybe he'll go to my right now?'' - It's all mind games. So long as it's hard & accurate enough, he should score more times than not.

Was it Ruud that used to put a ridiculously high percentage of his pens to a certain corner? Did it with pinpoint accuracy & ferocious power though?!
He either has to make them more accurate or vary it more, think if you discount the one against an amateur GK since the start of 2016 he has scored three and missed three. His one vs Leicester and Us in the FA Cup were both at decent heights for the GK and not in the corner
 
wish ravel the best of luck in mexico.Man that is such a shame
 
Danny Drinkwater's move to Chelsea now means that 11 Premier League clubs have a Manchester United academy graduate in their squad.

Nowhere prepares them like Carrington.
 
He's interested in trophies though, and so are the fans. Also, if they're good enough, they'll play. i.e. Rashford.

Tuanzebe, McTominay etc. will get minutes this season in cups, but trying to keep inexperienced youth happy won't get in the way of us trying to win the league! And so it shouldn't. Their days will come. But the first team is the most important, that's football, that's how it will always be.
 
He could hardly not play Rashford. You'd nobody else behind Zlatan.
Tuanzebe McTominay and Fosu Mensah all got time in the first team, and he still showed for faith in youth than most managers, I would bet that Tuanzebe McTominay and Fosu Mensah got more time than all L'pool teens combined who only played 256 minutes

Aww mate. Seriously. Don't. I added a throw away comment with a messing smiley.

Don't go down the road of pushing this or Mourinho's record on youth will get slaughtered and this will get ugly.

Let's all go back to laughing at Arsenal and save that for another time.
 
Can someone check in with Zz? Make sure he's alright? Better be safe than sorry.

Season long loan, no buy option, and he signed a 1 year contract extension at Utd.
