The Manchester United Thread

Manchester United have always been confident to keep Paul Pogba this summer. Also before Messi deal and PSG rumours, same position: Pogba is staying. #MUFC Talks ongoing since weeks with Mino Raiola to extend the contract - no agreement yet. But Man Utd confident.
 
Swansea manager confirms that Ethan Laird is set to undergo a medical on Sunday. Laird was in the stands for the Swansea v Sheffield game.
 
United beat Villa 2-0 in their 2nd pre-season game. Martha Thomas with an early goal set up by Kirsty Hanson. Hanson scored the 2nd, Katie Zelem with the assist. https://www.manutd.com/en/news/detail/man-utd-women-match-report-friendly-v-aston-villa-14-august

Kirsty Hanson now has a goal and an assist in each of the two pre-season games. Last season she got 5 goals and 2 assists in 1076 mins in WSL. Although I find her a frustrating player, largely due to her shocking short passing, she could be a player that contributes more if trusted as a regular starter, in the way that Ella Toone made a leap forward last season.

Ivana Fuso got 20 mins as a sub. It was difficult to assess her last season as she only got 5 sub appearances in the WSL, 100 mins in total.

I still think the fitness and form of Alessia Russo will be crucial. Alessia has been in some of the training pics but not played in either pre-season match.
 
He couldn't stop smiling when he heard Old Trafford. Exciting times.

#mufc want Paul Pogba to sign a new four-year contract as soon as possible which would give him a significant increase on his £290,000-a-week contract. However, it is almost certain he won't sign any new deal before the transfer window closes #mulive [@SamiMokbel81_DM]

Paul Pogba is not ruling out eventually signing a new contract at #mufc and is said to be optimistic about the direction in which the club are headed under Solskjær #mulive [@SamiMokbel81_DM]
 
Good to see Amad, Bailly, Lingard, Henderson, Varane in full training today. Cavani should be back tomorrow. Then only Rashford missing.
