The Manchester United Thread

Good win against a team in good form. Great goals. Lindelöf or Young for MOTM but both were fantastic! Opened up even more of a gap to Spurs after the weekend. Bring on Arsenal. Lingard goal of the match!
 
That was super entertainment.
What a finish by Lingard. Holy **** I leaped ten feet in celebration.
Love goals like that.
 
Arsenal are undoubtedly a good team (especially at Emirates), but I'll be so disappointed if we don't have a good go at them. Their defence out of all top 6 is weakest bar Liverpool.
 
Is Matic injured? I missed the match yesterday, but heard he limped off. That would be bad news..

Said he was ok when José asked him in the dug out. Just precautionary. Even say straight on the bench, would of gone down the tunnel if serious.
 
Good tweet by Crafton-

Only two of Ferguson's thirteen title winning #mufc teams had more points after fourteen games than United's 32 this season. Nostalgia can play tricks. United having a very good season with room to improve - their problem is City doing absurd things.

Yeah... I'm getting a bit tired of listening to people complain about Jose and his boring football.
 
Mourinho was sent to the stands for momentarily stepping foot on the pitch v Southampton. Guardiola is 10 yards on it celebrating manically and the ref just has a quiet word. This isn't about Jose v Pep, it's about alarmingly inconsistent officiating. None of it makes sense.

It'll also be interesting to see what stance the FA adopt over Guardiola haranguing Redmond. Mourinho got a one-match touchline ban for kicking a water bottle.

Lukaku got off for kicking out at the Bournemouth player a few days ago. Its not a club vs club thing. Standards are just wildly inconsistent across the board.

Not my views btw. Refs/ officials are a joke! They were 2 points by Ducker and Crafton. Something should defo happen to pep though.
 
Blind fears he will be a gonna in the Summer. In 2 minds about this. Good squad player, can play multiple positions, never injured, a model pro and on relatively low wages. On the other hand he hardly ever plays at CB now and is way down the pecking order. And now is behind Young at LB. And Mourinho has never tried him at CM.

Tbh wouldn’t mind if both he and Darmian left. Time to move on Johnstone, CBJ, Shaw, Carrick. And one of Smalling or Jones. And most likely one of Mata or Miki. Fellaini to if he’s holding us to silly demands.

Tuanzebe can take the CB role. Pereira Carrick and Fellaini place. And TFM needs to start being understudy to Tony V.

Absolutely do not want to get rid of Blind. Also you've just sliced our depth in half. And half the replacements aren't even like for like

I would be surprised if most the ones I’ve mentioned are still here beyond the Summer. Not necessarily like for like. But they replace the depth. And obviously Mourinho will strengthen again anyway. So no depth lost really.
