The Manchester United Thread

Any indication why Dalot is out of favor?
No idea mate. Read quite a few articles he wants to be a starter. Maybe Ole just doesn’t fancy him. And would prefer to give TFM and Laird his squad role. While still be able to get a good fee in for him for summer spending.
 
I love Martial and I think he probably would end up the better player compared to Jimenez but if I were to pick from both players NOW, I'd pick him ?. He's playing for wolves yet he racks up a lot of goals and his hold up play is mint too. He's the type of striker that'd compliment a possession-oriented side as well as a counter-attacking side to. I'm sorry but if we end up buying Jimenez, I see him benching Martial (unless we're going to be playing with 2 up top)
 
Can't believe we're even discussing the possibility of an alternative to Martial... he has been the best striker in PL since lockdown.

Ridiculous how his game has come on lately, he has off the ball movement and hold up play to his game which he never had before.

I may agree that we need another striker when Ighalo leaves for backup, but nothing more. Jimenez would cost a bomb and I doubt that's ever happening, especially when/if Sancho joins this summer.
 
Oh and did Scouse really try to compare AWB (the good version before lockdown and Palace) to Clyne? :ROFLMAO:

Dafuq... AWB in form defensively is one of the best full backs I've seen in the PL certainly in last few years, BUT as we've already mentioned - since lockdown has been different story... I assume due to how overplayed he is.

In form AWB, no one can get past him, even out of form... no one really does.

Zaha did on a few occasions ?

15-year-old Sergey Pinyaev has started and scored a nice goal for FC Chertanovo's first-team in a friendly today. Huge talent. Already on the Manchester United way.



Chertanovo academy director Nikolai Larin about Pinyaev's trial at Man United: "At Man United, they say that Pinyaev is the brightest player who has come to the club for an internship over the past 15 years." He will join United when he turns 18.

Saw this and tough in PL we dont have players with this kind of acceleration and dribble skill who beat defenders regularly.

Zaha maybe the most closest currently, also Traore but he is not consistent, Sterling has pace but i dont think the technical skill.
Hazard was maybe the last who just floated between guys.

I assume he's just knackered, literally played every single game this season from what I remember, there is probably an exception here and there. but he has played, for a young man in his first season at United, a ridiculous amount of football.

First thing I hope we do is rest him in Europa, I fear Ole will burn out some of these players for next season if he is not careful.

Played 45 games I think. Him and Maguire top our most app this season.
 
Athletic saying this morning Ole wants Sancho, Midfielder, CB this summer


Be very happy with that if it's the right players. As much as i'd like a striker and fullback too, i know it can't be done in one summer and i feel them three are more important.

Agree. That would be a good summer while shifting out some more players stealing a wage. The club bought itself some time with Ighalo next season. Least with FB we will have Shaw, AWB, Williams, TFM, Laird and possibly Dalot if he’s kept.
 
Today on radio 5 live.

There is no doubt that #mufc know they can get Jadon Sancho. One would imagine there will be two or three new players this summer. Sancho is the one the club really want #mulive [@sistoney67

A right-sided forward, in the form of Jadon Sancho, is #mufc's focus and priority this summer. A lot of work is needed to be done to make sure of the signing and it's not done yet. The club will do everything they can to make it happen though #mulive @David_Ornstein



Christian Falk: "There is a lot to talk about [for Jadon Sancho] between the clubs. There is no decision yet, but I think everybody has the feeling it will happen — they [Dortmund] always said €120m. I don't think they will get it this summer and they realise." #mulive

Christian Falk: "I know [Jadon] Sancho is pushing a for a deal, and Dortmund know that already. Of course he wants to come to #mufc

So many people underestimating West Ham, our record against them is far from amazing considering. And Antonio has the ability to rinse lindelof and maguire. Gonna be a scrappy 1-0 or 1-1.
