MANCHESTER UNITED APPLIES TO JOIN WSL2
• Application submitted to FA
• New professional team would create pathway for graduates from successful girls’ regional talent club

Manchester United has submitted an application to the Football Association to establish a professional women’s team in the second tier of the Women’s Super League.

If successful, the move would provide a career pathway for players who graduate from the long-established and highly successful Girls' Regional Talent Club, which has seen some 15 of its graduates playing international football this season alone.

The squad would be based at the club's historic training centre at The Cliff.

Announcing the move, Ed Woodward said: "We are pleased to announce that the club intends to establish its first ever professional women’s team and has submitted an application to enter WSL2.

"The FA has provided excellent support through the process and we believe that launching a team in WSL2 would give many more of our graduates from the Regional Talent Club the chance to establish themselves as first-team players.

"The Manchester United women’s team must be built in the same image and with the same principles as the men's first team and offer academy players a clear route to top-level football within the club."

BBC just confirmed Zlatan will leave the club this week to go to the MLS. Good luck Zlatan was a joy having him here! :(
 
Another absolutely non-sensical contract extension handed out there.

Woodward sure knows how to get value for money. Oh, wait .....

Zlatan will leave United having been on a low basic wage this season, made up by incentives he hasn’t been able to trigger due to lack of games.

Absolute comedy madness to extend a 36-year-old SO early coming off a serious knee injury. Not like there was a need with Lukaku, Martial and Rashford to start with.

Just a year of wasted wages.

In hindsight could say it was wasted wages. But he and the physio obviously thought he would be back. Which he is, it’s not fitness or his knee that’s the problem! Anyway that why he signed his extension with massively reduced wages and having performance based incentives in it. Don’t think it’s made us bankrupt :P

We are lucky that Lukaku has stayed injury free or we would of been ****** this season. Hardly Ed being Ed for fucksake! It would not of been his decision anyway!
 
It was neither a terrible deal nor a great idea to resign him.
 
Any other club with Rashford and Martial wouldn't be 'F-ed' losing a striker.

You need to question the whole approach if that's your view ToD.

There both young and still very inconsistent. Rashford form has been like a yo-yo this season big time. While Martial operates far better in space from the left.
 
53 app 30 gls 10 assists while missing the end of the season. Comm Shield, League Cup, Europa league not bad Zlatan. Was a pleasure!
 
Holy ****, ABU agenda continues hard here. If some other club offers player who came after a horrible, horrible injury basic contract and ability to train with the club, it's amazing and that club should be praised. But if United does that, it's shameful. And this kind of behavior comes from a fan of a club who openly supported racist cannibal. Talking about double standards.
 
Yes, because normally when a 36 year old player gets serious injury, everyone accepts he is finished and that's that. So if club still chooses to support him, that's amazing.

Here? Right after the injury it was followed by full on PR offensive, complete with press releases about how Zlatan is a lion who has superhuman knees that make horses jealous, he will return to be king of Manchster, and so on and so on. It was an absoute joke from the start and you're rightfully being mocked for falling for it.
