The Manchester United Thread

If Carrick and/Or Mkhi doesn't play on Sunday, I wonder who'll tkae that spot with Pogba/Herrera in midfield.. Fellain? Lingard? Schweinsteiger?

I'm hoping for Schweinsteiger!

If we play 433 can see Herrera playing deep and Fellaini playing next to Pogba, letting Pogba get forward more. Or if we play 4231 can see Mata playing off Zlatan and Lingard or Rashford playing RW. Not a disaster either way.

Yeah agree, can't wait for the game!

Me too! Just get the job done anyway any score line and get Mourinho second piece of Silverware in the bag for the season :) then on with the change of FA Cup and Europa League glory. And top 4 finish. Could be a great end of season. Bring it on(6)
 
Regarding Mkhitaryan's injury.
Something in the back of my mind thinks Jose is playing with Southampton a bit ;)
(only a small feeling mind you... But it's there).
 
We're in a good moment, no doubt, but lets not get carried away, there is a lot that needs to be done before we call this a successful season. Winning on Sunday is a start, Southampton are a good team, we'll need to be at our best.
 
just a matter of time before he leaves,will be gone by july

By July, can't see why not but with a testimonial match, some good champagne, Eddy's wine and mince pie and what not. But I just can't see him leaving by next Tuesday (cos that's when the Chinese transfer window closes).

He's had his testimonial already.
 
Telegraph, Gardian and Spanish media saying-


Atletico have told us they want Griezmann to stay one more season with them, but have also lined up Lacazette as his potential replacement this summer. It also says we are prepared to trigger his release clause, but hope to sign him for less when the negotiations begin.
 
BBC radio just said Rooney agent will visit 4 clubs to try closing a deal for this month. But if not definately in the summer.
 
BBC Radio 5 live - 5 live Sport, City v United: Manchester's Cold War

At 19:30 BT, an 1 hour and half long discussion will be on BBC Radio 5 live:

Once it was only about trophies and derby day wins. Now the battle to be the biggest club in Manchester has gone outside the stadium and into the streets and parks beyond. A fight not only for the best footballing talent in town but for the heart and minds of the city's kids too.
We hear from those on the front line - youth coaches, scouts, academy directors, parents - about how children as young as four are being wooed and won, and how an entente at the top level is masking an increasingly intense rivalry on the playing pitches and playgrounds.

Will be interesting to hear what these people have to say, maybe we can get some discussion about the subject in here as well.
 
Carrick didn't go off by choice it was through a calf problem. Still don't see what the problem is. From what I've read and seen the injuries are not serious anyway. You can't not just play people invade they might get injured. I'm glad Mou picked a strong team and kept the winning momentum going!
The problem is Jose crying about fixture congestion then playing most of his best 11 in a game where we are 3-0 up and just days before a cup final. I really don't see the need or point of it.
 
It's just Jose, he's like a grumpy grandad, he's never going to be to complimentary towards congested fixture lists, he's also never going to take any degree of risks in an away leg European game. If we're beat at the weekend it's not because we had what was almost a training match yesterday evening (which was extremely surprising, I think every man and his dog expected them to throw the kitchen sink at us) but it'd be because we're beat on the day.

Well he's part of the best squad in the league apparently (not even gonna' say it kitchen my good man. Value my goodies too much), so it may not be the best place to ask.
