The Manchester United Thread

No interest in Sanchez. Especially with the way Martial is playing.
 
U19s Vs CSKA
Fojticek, O'Connor, Warren, Ercolani, Laird, Hamilton, Barlow, Boonen, Gomes, Chong, Bohui
Subs: Moutha-Sebtaoui, Sang, Kenyon, Baars, Barrett, Burkart, Garner

Kicked off at 3.

Bohui puts up 1-0 up after a peno.

Finished 1-0 could of been 4-5. In the play offs now.

Just win please.

As surprisingly great as Spartak was this year, I'd much rather have the potential of a trip to Basle than the extra hassle and expense that is Moscow.
 
Shaw has looked brilliant. Danny Rose rumours doing him no harm. But is he playing for his place, or for potential watchers *cough cough Poch cough* as he may already know his fate
 
Ok, Ill shut up now. Ill talk some more **** against City. Maybe it will work lol.
 
Can someone remind me why did United sell Hernandez?

He was no longer happy with his squad role and wanted regular first team position. Was being a whiny ***** behind closed doors as well I heard. Which I reckon was accurate due to his sour comments towards United ever since he left.
 
Nah, it was a dig towards Lukaku since both of them offer little exept 'goalscoring threat'.
 
Oh behave. Quicker, stronger, better hold up play, more presence, decent at combining with the forward nearest to him, etc. Yes he's no Lionel Messi technically, but he's a well rounded CF.
 
Shaw MOTM for me. That’s what we’ve been missing. Those bombing runs from the left, getting in behind the defender cutting the ball back or getting in good crosses. Young’s been good. But he’s more off a come back and cross player, mainly because he’s right footed. And he doesn’t really make those overlapping runs in behind to get onto through balls. Hope Shaw has a future with us! Him and Rose would be quality options.

Thought Lukaku was very good again last night. Hold up play and link up play we’re good. And that finish was great and hopefully turns the tide on his barron spell. Not that he’s been playing bad. Pogba was good running the show with Mata drifting in.

Nice to see Tuanzebe and McTominey get 20 mins ish. Also thought Lindelöf had another very good game again. Looking like the player I thought we had signed from the get go. A good CB with very good build up play from the back.

The most positive thing for me last night was Herrera. Thought he was very good breaking up play putting in tackles and reading the game well. And looks to have played himself back into a bit of form, before the Derby. As him and Matic will be absolutely instrumental in us getting a positive result come Sunday.

Agree with everything here, I even think Pogba had a "bad" game compared to his standards, but he still had a great game. That just shows what a good player he is
 
Mourinho on Man Utd's injured players' chance of playing v Man City: "Eric Bailly no chance for the weekend, Phil Jones a chance, Fellaini a chance, Zlatan a big chance and Matic is injured but will play for sure. Carrick, no chance."
 
If we get the old Shaw back to his best form early LVG era before leg break, seriously we don't need to spend £50m on Rose.

We only need a LB like Rose if Shaw doesn't take this chance, because Young is a suitable backup for him. Spending £50m on another LB would be very pointless if Shaw shines again.
 
Manchester United have given Jose Mourinho the green light for important mid-season improvements to a squad competing on four fronts for silverware.

A January transfer budget “in the region of €90million” is an endorsement of the managers achievement in leading United to two major trophies in his first season at the club and United’s strongest start to an English Premier League campaign since Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement.

The Old Trafford board’s support for Mourinho’s efforts to prevent a Manchester City squad enriched by unprecedented spending on transfer fees and salaries from taking the title is also seen as an indication that it will extend the 54-year-old’s contract as manager.

Discussions are understood to have taken place between the club and Mourinho’s agent on renewing a deal that expires in 2019.

Of more importance to the Portuguese coach is accelerating the structural improvement of a squad that enters this weekend’s Manchester derby eight points behind City despite scoring 35 times in 15 Premier League fixtures and posting the division’s best defensive record.

Hope Baldy is right about Mourinho new contract!

 
Can we seriously stop using Duncan Castles as any kind of source. He's an awful sycophant.
