The Manchester United Thread

Given Murtogh failed spectacularly and cost you any chance of CL with the Ragnick carnage even a blind man could see was doomed to failure, its not been a very good start to that end mate to think he’s any different from Big Ed and isn’t another Glazer ‘’yes man.’

Not sure what dimwit handed Fernandes the unwarranted extension but if it was him too ……

He absolutely deserves stick for the Rangnick carnage (seeing that decision was all him) as any decent run of form would’ve had us finish top 4 considering how terrible the competition were BUT his ideal long term choices weren’t available at the time. Made sense to go for an interim and Rangnick, at the time, looked like a sure thing but hindsight is a beautiful thing now isn’t it?


I too would really like to know who signed off on Fernandes’ new contract. From what I’ve read, we’ve actually been negotiating with him since last May (makes it worse considering he had 4 years left at the time). If Murtough signed off on that then I can’t really defend it

Your right it was started last May by Woodward and Judge and had been all but done and dusted before the new year and was just waiting for a good time to announce it.

‘There is a line, we are human beings’: Maguire opens up on threats and boos

Harry Maguire said he is worried young players may be put off reporting for England duty after treatment he has experienced from his own fans

I am my biggest critic. Although there are a lot of critics out there, I’m actually still my biggest! The next biggest is probably my dad.

This is funny…wasn’t he the one that stated “I can’t be as bad since I keep getting picked by multiple managers”
 
Tidy player. Not surprised he’s decided to leave. Far to many young CM talents to compete with in his age group and below.


@oskarutd
Svidersky confirms in inerview he is leaving @ManUtd

I have spent the last days in Spain, where my steps will continue. They will follow in the first Spanish league, La Liga. I have high expectations, it will be a new experience, a new country. Spain came to me as the best option for my development. It is an opportunity to play men’s football and get more chances.

We need to relax with these comparisons. He was distinctly average at Alaves last season every time I watched him. He has that low center gravity factor working for him however but his end product still needs A LOT of work.

Never said he was a clone lol. Just has a lot of similarities in his style of play having seen him live a couple of times and watching his highlights.
 
De Jong absolutely superb tonight. Can see why ETH is pushing for him. Belgium couldn’t lay a finger on him. He’s so press resistant
