The Manchester United Thread

Absolutely. My feelings on that don't need saying again.

Just ironic the B/S your managers currently coming out with after he lambasted and mocked Rafa winning the Europa with Chelsea. A competition he never wanted to manage in as it was beneath him. Now it's completely flipped.

Funny how that happen's.
Tbf, the europa league wasn't a path to the Champions League at that point. Believe it or not, I'm more excited about qualifying for the UCL than winning the europa league tbh. The cup is just the icing.

I think most football fans would agree with that, a shiny cup looks a lot better on a squad photo than finishing 2nd, 3rd or 4th in a very competitive league.

So our rumored targets are Belotti, keane, lindelof and griezmann.

Would take Griezmann from that list and that's it. Maybe Keane if Smalling and Jones go for back up. Need a quality CB to be starting next to Bailly.

Keane is quality lol. He's outplayed all our center halves this season. Lindelof would be good for depth. He can play anywhere across the back 4 and at defensive mid.
 
Looks like City close to agreeing deals for Walker, Mendy, Silva. 3 good signings for about 160m. Not sure the FBs will solve any of there defencive issues. Or they really need Silva but 3 good players non the less. Can't wait for the new season already :)

They need to rebalance the CM thats when you will see their defensive issues as fixed as they can be in a Guardiola set up. Think they need a big powerful DM who can put a stamp on things or someone athletic who covers every blade like Kante.

The longer Peps been here, the less those problems have become. Particularly since Kompany came back and he had a settled back line.

Finish above City and there's a good chance you win something. Don't see that changing next season. The worst thing that could of happened for everyone else IMHO is for him to have a tough first year. He'll of learned a heck of a lot about this league and where things went wrong this year.

Try telling that to Tottenham

Still think he will need to change things when plan A font work though. No matter how good your team or style is. It's hard to be one dimensional in the Prem.

Touché.

But then if Chelsea don't have that abnormal 12 in a row or whatever it was they quite possibly do.

City and Pep are the only team that really scare me if they get it right that could elevate themselves clearly over the other 5 and have a period of domination. As much as anyone can dominate in today's mega money age.
 
City clearing out now, expect fresh quality brought in.

Depending on who is in / out by the end of the window, I expect them to be winning the league next year

Was always going to be up there. Sounds like Silva and Mendy completed. Walker and Pickford next.
 
Interesting that British press and other European press linking us to different players :) Encouraging Amoyal saying we are still in contact for Fabinho. And are interested in Mendy and Morata. Those 3 and Griezmann would be a great window.

personally i think we need more than 4 to compete on all fronts next season.If it is to be 3 or 4 then im expecting them to be world class

Depends on who's leaving. So far looks like Rooney, Smalling, Januzaj, Johnstone, Willock, Varela. If true that would leave us-

GK- DDG, Romero, Periera

FBs- Valencia, Shaw, Darmian, Young, CBJ, , (Mendy)

CB- Bailly, Rojo, Jones, Tuanzebe, Blind, (Keane)

CM- Carrick, Fellaini, Pogba, Herrera, TFM, Periera, (Fabinho)

AM- Mata, Mky, Lingard, Martial, ( Griezmann)

ST- Rashford, Zlatan, ( Morata)

Pretty good that.

I'm so disappointed with the Bernardo Silva news. I wanted him more than anyone else from Monaco.
