The Manchester United Thread

Plus there's the added incentive of winning all three European majors for Utd. And not to mention you always want to keep your coefficient high. Another bad season and you're suddenly risking dropping into lower pots and a harder draw when you are back in the Champions League.

Fantasic competition. Never understand the recent English attitude toward it on any level.

You might see rotation in the bloated group stage, but past that it's a great knock out comp. It's a trophy, it's CL, it's co-efficients we need (and the league needs). No reason to not take it seriously

At the moment we sure as **** have the squad size to go for everything with confidence of being able to rotate with quality in reserve. Maybe explains why Jose hasn't made any noticable departures yet.
 
I wonder why martial wasn't picked tho. It's not like he even played a full match with France

I never said guarentee winning the leagye though. Just that not winning the league should be considered a failure especially as United are not even in CL next season. While I agree that the league is as tough as ever, no team has strengthened as much as United and that makes them favourites especially with Jose at the helm.

But we're in the Europa league which is even a worse distraction.

Still away training with France. Needs at least a three week break.

*Edit* Oh, the tour. Sorry. Thought you meant Wigan. Yeah, very bizarre decision.

We're only playing two games on the tour. That squad contains a lot of "unknowns" for him.

On that, interesting there's no James Wilson.

Prehaps Mourinho has quickly assessed what I've always thought. There's little there in his game that would separate him at the top level. Lad we've just somehow gotten £4 million for from Watford is exactly the same. Jerome Sinclair. Great at youth level. Has nothing to separate himself from PL defenders. He doesn't even bend his runs in behind. You need more.

I guess you could try another loan this year for Wilson being as he's still 20 somewhere where he'd play but if there's still no improvement by next summer then it'd be time to let that one go.

If it isn't already.
 
Pogba will be ours, I'm 100 percent sure now. Eddy won't hesitate to correct the figures Juve asks on the paycheck. ;)
