The Manchester United Thread

Fellaini: “A club like Man United has to be in the Champions League but we have to improve. Next season is a big season for us. The third year of the manager, we have to try to win the league.”

Clearly sounds like he wants to stay!
 
Not going to lie, seeing Sir Alex and Wenger hugging like that set off the feels and I'm not even an Arsenal fan, just a football fan. Seeing them together like that, is when it dawns on the football fan in general-it's an end of an era.

Very classy from Utd.
 
Pogba is 2 G/A away from 20 this season. Considering he missed 3 months to injury, that's pretty ******* impressive.

His record in the big games has generally been good too. He’s just so frustrating at times looks like he switches off or finds it to easy I don’t know what it is. Just frustrating.
 
Frustrating, yes. Only because he's the most talented CM in world football, so off that, should be top 5 (which isn't the case, and won't be until he adds more consistency).

What I will say though, we should have used the Matic/Herrera/Pogba midfield 3 a lot more this season. Felt Ander was underplayed a lot.

Looks after time now that at least Mourinho has settled or settling on a 3. Good to here on MUTV yesterday. Gardner saying Herrera is likely to stay as confirmed by Herrera in an interview with him.
 
U17 EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIPS: These are the #MUFC players that have been called up to represent their countries. A proud moment for all players.


Belgium- Largie Ramazani
England- Ethan Laird & James Garner
Spain- Arnau Puigmal
 
✍️ #MUFC Under-23s midfielder Tom Sang is the latest player to commit his future to the club, after signing a new deal: manutd.co/KPc

Wont be many of these that stay on past the end of this season. From the u23s. Sang most probably deserves it. Showed good promise then got injured. Won’t make it here imo but could defo have a good career eventually at mid to lower Prem level.

Mourinho's Player of the Year
The manager takes to the stage to had out his own award.

I think the dream of every boy that arrive s at the club is to play for the first-team, and when he came becomes true the next dream is to play in big matches and to play champions league, and eventually to play for the national team. This team did everything in five or six months. My player of the year has to be Scott McTominay.​


Mourihno on McTominay
“It was between him and Matic, because Matic last March 2017 he told me ‘I want to play for you, and I want to play for Manchester United’. Aand he make it happen. He has been very consistent, and very important for the balance of the team. I was going for him, but then I understood in two awards for young players Scott was not getting one, I changed my mind because it wasn’t acceptable.

He is the one who has done everything. He started the season in the academy and ended it playing big games in the Premier League. I thought this kid can not go home without an award.

“I always say that for me there are not young players or old players, it is just about the quality of the personality and this kid has everything that I want so I think that it is good for the younger boys in the academy to look at him as an example of player. We know it is important to have players like Jesse Lingard and Marcus Rashford that were born in the club, but it is right to have the right profile. Scott gives to other players that the dream is still alive.”

Mourinho to Carrick: “Thats the next shirt, I have two more gifts, the players will be happy with this, your first whistle, you can be the referee and finally, advil for headaches.”

My fave quote from Mourinho last night. Everyone ****** themselves in the room especially DDG -

[FONT=&quot]

"De Gea deserves a third award for worst player in training. One minute he's too cold and the next he's too wet and he doesn't save anything. Rubbish trainer."​

Brighton presser:

Jose reveals @RomeluLukaku9 will miss tomorrow's clash with Brighton, but has a good chance of being fit for the #EmiratesFACup final. #MUFC

Mourinho: “Blind and Darmian? They’re part of my plans in this moment. If a player wants to go and the right offers arrive in the club, we study that, we try to have the players happy, if happiness means for them to leave, let’s see, but they’re in my plans for now.” #mufc

Mourinho on Bailly: "There's no situation. It's fine, no injury. Also no important matches for now. He’s one of our five central defenders but he's the only central defender whose country who is not in the World Cup.” #mufc

Mourinho on Fellaini: “I’m still positive, he’s a player I like, he has a different position in relation to other players with contract. In his case destiny in his hands and he’ll decide what makes him happy. He knows we want him to stay, he has an offer, it’s up to him.” #mufc

Mourinho more on Bailly: “If i have to make a more emotional effective choice to help my players, he’s the one i’m not going to help until the end of the season. Rojo, Lindelof, Jones, Smalling, all of them are wishing to make the squad for the World Cup, Eric is not under that pressure.” #mufc

Mourinho on De Gea winning #MUFCPOTY: “That’s good, it’s not surprising, Messi, Ronaldo don’t give many chances, it’s surprising in the big international award there’s no goalkeepers on them, David is having a very good seasons in the club. I don’t see it as a problem.” #mufc
 
Such a bullshit explanation with Bailly. Acting like it's all to help Smalling/Jones etc. with their bid to play for their country in the World Cup while Martial and even Rasfhord benchwarms Sanchez (Chile didn't qualify either).

Could be bullshit. Also said there’s no important games atm. Rashford is a cert anyway. Don’t think Deschamps is keen on Martial from what a lot of French people have said on Reddit and Redcafe in the past. Personally think he’s nearly missed most the season with injury and doesn’t want to risk any reacurrences. Expect him to play in the Watford game and start the final.

Yeah I don't mind Bailly sitting out the rest of the season. I want him fully fit for pre-season and next season!
 
From Embargoed presser:

Manchester United
✔@ManUtd

"There is not one player that I want to sell."

Jose Mourinho wants to keep his #MUFC squad together this summer.

Jose Mourinho says assistant Rui Faria would be a good fit for @Arsenal and: “I met him when he was a kid at university. If my friend one day has possibility of a big job, I would help him pack, carry the bags + wish him luck. If one day the moment arrives I would be very happy.”

Jose Mourinho says he fully trusts Rashford and Martial and has confidence in both to step up in Lukaku absence.

Jose Mourinho says Fellaini has better offer on the table than 8 months ago. He knows we want him but it’s now up to him. If he leaves so be it.

Also reiterates that there will be NO change in attacking personnel this Summer. I am happy with the players I gave there.
 
UNDER 18's: Man Utd v Chelsea WILL BE ON YOUTUBE FOR FREE on Saturday at 12:00.


Angel Gomes & Tahith Chong will both be involved even though they have been promoted to the U23 side
 
I have a feeling we will see Martial in Lukakus position tonight. Let's hope he shows Mou he wants to be a United player next season! (If he plays)
