The Manchester United Thread

Friend of Eric Bailly: "He feels that no matter what he does, he will never be first choice for Ole. He now realises he’s too good and too young to spend his time sitting on the bench." #mulive [sky]

Friend of Eric Bailly: "Eric loves the club and the fans, his family are settled in Manchester and he’d like nothing more than to spend the rest of his career at Old Trafford. But he feels the club has been very disrespectful towards him & frankly he’s had enough." #mulive [sky]

Eric Bailly fears Manchester United are offering him a new contract simply to guarantee a bigger transfer fee for him in the summer.

Would happily let go of Matic and Bring in Saul. He’s a huge huge upgrade on either McFred and also has the ability to be more forward thinking. He’s much more than just a work horse.

Saul is a serious baller. One of the few players in world football who can play anywhere on the pitch and look like he has been playing the position for years. Javier Zanetti vibes from him.

Has he strung more than 5 games together. Don't understand what he means by disrespect as he can't stay fit for very long. The fact he has been offered a contract is a bemusement to me.
 
Am I correct in saying Eric Bailey has missed 104 games since we signed him?

What in the name of electrified excrement are we offering him a new improved contract for?

I also don't get why he feels like he'll never get first team football...lad, you miss more games than Werner misses open goals. I don't really get that.
 
So happy Rashford has returned to Utd to recover! Also happy Bruno only played 45 mins the other night for Portugal
 
Solskjaer getting a new contract regardless of what happens with the remainder of this season, kinda sums up where we are as a club and the owners we have imo. We're just a glorified Arsenal now, happy with top 4 and no real ambition to do much else lets be honest.

Yes we've made progress in the league in terms of points, but we still won't ever win the league with Solskjaer. I've got serious doubts we'll even win the Europa League.

saving this post for future reference 😋
 
Love him or hate him, I still believe Solskjaer is just a yes man for the Glazers and they will ride him for ALL he's worth. Simply put they won't sack him until they absolutely have to. All they care about is revenue from top 4, nothing else at all.

There has been progress in terms of points and results in the league, but they are trying to sell it like some massive achievement on the way to something bigger that annoys me. The style of football is not much better than Mourinho(this season), in fact I'd argue if you compare to how we were playing at this stage last season to right now we're actually worse.

I think the league this season has largely been gash anyway if you take away City, what else really has been a rival to us? Liverpool falling off a cliff was unexpected and most teams like Wolves have fell off as well. Chelsea under Lampard... I could go on. Progress needs to be put in perspective to see whether it really is progress imo.
 
There’s been factual progress there’s no denying it.

Ole is doing a good job IMO not great though. He took over at a time where squad morale was at an all time low. We were 6th and 11 points off 4th. Since then he has cleared much of the deadwood and we are 2nd, 6 points above 4th. We got knocked out at the Semi Final stage of the league cup to a better side, two years running and the loss to Sevilla still annoys me to this day. Had more than enough chances to win it when we dominated then just after second half. We are undefeated away from home in the Premier League for over a year. We are the second highest scorers in the league this season. Maybe if we had a Champions League group as comfortable as Chelsea's or City's we would still be in that competition too (still shouldn’t have blown it mind!). As it is, we have every chance of winning the Europa League. We are still not the finished article a way off it, but until all signs of progress have been diminished, Ole will rightfully be backed.
 
What do we think about Jonas Wind? The Denmark and Copenhagen striker?

Really? He even played against United last? year.
Strong, tall, decent in air, two footed and real fox in the box. I would think he wouldn't cost a fortune and he's 22. Maybe it's worth to get him as a backup striker
