The Manchester United Thread

[Theatre of dreams]

Lingard won us the FA Cup so probably wanted to give him his well deserved spot in the team.

Much improving player! Deserves his spot atm his runs and decision making are class creates a lot of space for himself and others. And his work rate is just a bonus never stops and helped Valencia no end defensively.

****, I've missed that. What did he say exactly? Don't forget, no tweets...

The reporter on BT Sports asked him. He said something like he is here I heard he was before the game but I wanted to concentrate on my team and the match. He will be a good player for us and my team. It's done and will be announced soon.

Luke Shaw confirmed on MUTV just that the players have known he's coming for a few days now And on MUTV Mou just said we are waiting for him to finish his medical

United lose the Otten Cup final on penalties. Whelan,Chong,Bohui,Tanner,Sang,Barlow,Gomes scored. Poole,Gribbin,Moutha Sebtaoui missed.

apparently some shocking decisions cost us in the final. But we ripped Barca a new one in the semi final with Gribbin and Gomes on fire.

Schwienstigers never fit long enough and Fellaini gives us something different from the rest of the squad. I'm not his biggest fan by any means but I can put my dislike for players aside and see the bigger picture.

Pogba will offer everything fellaini does 10 fold, minus the afro

No doubt. But Fellaini will offer things that Pogba won't. You don't want Pogba doing the defensive job Fellaini does in the box and is a good out ball when teams press us high. He wasn't even bad today bar the mistake, which plenty of other players made more of. We don't need Schweinstiger we have Carrick.

 

[Theatre of dreams]

Sounds like after watching MUTV match review and interviews. Pogba will complete second part of medical tomorrow and be unvieled. Mou said he will meet him in training on Tuesday.

 

[Theatre of dreams]

Very interesting also the praise for Herrera and Mata from Mourinho for helping get control of the game after Leicester started to dominate after Musa and Gray came on.

New youth signing Tahith Chong was voted best player at the Otten Cup.

Yeah but pogba is 6'3 and he's a very good Chester of the ball

I know that will be good when teams press us and gives us another outlet. But Fellaini is better than Pogba in the air.

Right ok. Now the hysteria has died down, and people start to look at the game for what it was rather then the BT Sport Comentator *** Fest, Bailly was absolute ***** again. Is there really only me that can see this without red blinkers on? He cant read a game for ****. The only thing he's got his pace, and 90% of the time that is only to recover a mistake hes aready made and flies back and dives in.

Good job today was classed as a friendly or he would have been off when he clattered into the player in their box near the end. think we had a corner that was cleared to the edge of the box and he completely wiped out the player. And that was attacking a ball. In defense he closes his eyes and jumps hoping to hit something. There is nothing cool, calm or collected about his game whatsoever. He's like a headless chicken. and for £30m somebody is having a big **** up there. Hes done nothing Paddy Mcnaire wasnt doing 2 seasons ago. Avtually Mcnaire was a lot better. For some reason last season LVG frozen McNaire out and went for Blind. Not a bad move considering how he played but £30m on Bailly who cant read a ball coming in for ****, and relies on his pace to drag him out of this **** time and time again, he wont last 2 minutes in the premiership.

I honestly to god hope im wrong, after all Vidic and Evra looked **** until they started the next season but i really dont see it in Bailly.He cant read a game, he's constantly caught on the wrong side and the only thing he has is his pace to recover. But even then he goes diving in. Hes gonna cost a lot of goals unless he learne fast.

All BT did was comment on him being there for clearances and his pace getting back. What they didnt say is if he had half of carricks brain he would be stepping into the hole to intercept the ball. Instead he charges in, almost giving away a free kick, then goes charging infor a loose ball he should have already dealt with and is 2 inches away from bringinh a man down in the box.

People will say im having a go and Bailly needs time. I get that but I say it how it is. At the moment id even play Rojo over Bailley. And i wouldnt have even bought him. Id have put McNair in his place. I would have even brough Keane back instead of paying that on Bailly. Should never have sold Keane in the first place. Should have ****** Jones off. But thats another story lol.

Are you serious? :O

Dude, bailly was great. I'm not saying this because he's a united player and I just complement every player in a red shirt. For example, I thought ibrahimovic was utter **** if you take away his goal but bailly had vardy in his pocket all game. Only reason he actually scored was because of broccoli

He had a couple of occasions where he was very brash and had moments of pure brilliance. I.e that tackle on vardy that stopped a 2 v 1 situation in the 1st half and dominated wes morgan in set pieces, which is NEVER an easy task.

I'm confident he can go on to be a top class center back as he shows a lot of potential. Jesus, even my friends that are Liverpool fans praised his performance.

Yes the goal was ultimately down to Fellaini, but watch it back. Bailly was ball watching and when Fellaini made the pass he was completely wrong footed and not in the position he should have been.

But forget that. Watch the game back. He did a **** of a lot of tackles and clearances, but look at how many of those was just recoveries from his **** up's in the first place. And like I said, if that wasnt a glorified friendly he would have been off for the amount of tackles he flew into like a headless chicken trying to recover.

Its easy to praise a performance when a commentator is picking up on all the good stuff and mentioning it, but from my eyes the only good stuff he did was getting back and diving into clearances coz hed completely ****** up with his reading of the game in his move beforehand, which presented Leicester with the opportunity.

All i can say is wait till Gary Neville rips him apart coz he will say it how it is. Bailly may have potential, but he doesnt have anywhere near £30m worth when he looks at best a squad player and we have sold the likes of Michael Keane that would have done just a good job if not better, and McNair. Even Fosu-Mensah looked a lot more composed last season, even at his age and in proper matches.

As soon as Smalling is back, Bailly will be carted and it will go back to Smalling/Blind partnership
