The Manchester United Thread

🤩🤩🤩

23-year old Japanese midfielder has signed for United. After a stellar World Cup she had plenty of clubs chasing her signature, Liverpool and Frankfurt among others, but I’m delighted Miyazawa chose us. She joins from Japanese side MyNavi Sendai.

The rapid attacking midfielder scored five goals in the WWC, two of which came against the eventual World Champions Spain. The tally came as a surprise to many as she hadn’t been a proven goalscorer for her club, and while four goals in 20 international caps before the tournament was nothing to be ashamed of, she even said herself that she didn’t expect to score that many goals in the tournament.

Miyazawa was the last player to be dropped out of the Japan WC 2019 squad, despite having been in the squad for a year already. She was also excluded from the Tokyo Olympics squad two years later due to an injury. She’s since said that she used these disappointments as a source of motivation to make sure this doesn’t happen again.

The midfielder is a good passer with a wide of range of passing and she’s very comfortable with both feet. Her game kind of looks simple and easy as she often glides past defenders and finds her striker with inch-perfect through balls. Whoever plays in front of her should always be ready to make a run behind the line. More often than not Miyazawa will find her. She makes the game look easy but that’s all down to her balance, movement and technique on the ball.

She can definitely play deeper in the midfield as well, but to get the best out of her she should be played as an 8 or a 10. That of course raises a question about Toone’s role but I think it’s only good that we’re finally adding quality players to increase the competition for minutes. Hope this pushes Tooney to the next level too.

You lot should really think of doing reality show or season of your doings. Would cash in some money for transfers.

If I understand this correctly, this invite happened some time ago and the media just decided to dig it up now?

Why do I feel the media is just hopping on the negative united press train just to get clicks?

Because it's Manchester United. City winning treble does not generate as many clicks as watching United's groundsman's brother-in-law's daughter cussing at someone who cut them off on a crossway. It's how it is.

It doesn't matter what your club do, it's Manchester United that generate interest.

My wife has 0 interests when it comes to football, and her newsfeed is filled with United news more than ToD's transfer thread.
Like I said multiple times, by far the biggest club in England, and top 3 in the world.

The England striker that left us this summer. Then said she moved for a better chance of winning the big trophies. And moving to a bigger club.

Well I guess CL isn’t for everyone after Arsenal got knocked out of the CL yesterday and she missed the crucial penalty. And this was against a team that Arsenals squad is around 10 times the value. Karma 😁🤫
 
Oh and her jab by her brother(agent) about us not been ambitious enough. Well we have just signed one of the hottest young wing prospects in Europe and FB prospects in Europe. Just signed the golden boot winner from the WC. Arguably the best winger in world football in Brazilian Gueyse. And have an agreement for her team mate Kerolin one of the top CM in world football agree to join in Jan when her seasons over. And we are currently in talks for 3 more world class players before the window closes.

might make Mary Earps think twice about wanting to leave to Arsenal. If not she can do one also 😁
