The Manchester United Thread

United u19s beat Trenčin 4-1

Rapid beat Udinese 4-1 in the other group game, so United and Rapid will decide the group winner tomorrow. A draw would be enough for us to get to the final second year in a row.
 
So after reading and watching Ornstein’s latest articles and podcast.

Sounds like :

AWB out Mazzaroui in
De Ligt in
2 of Eriksen, Mctominay, Casemiro out Urgarte and Amarabat in

Then possible exits in Linderlof, Pellistri, Hannibal, Sancho.

Still a chance for another attacker and LB coming in.

Do you know where are they playing?
 
ETH update on Malacia 😀

"He is not that far, but he is now in a progress situation. At a relatively short notice, he can again return into team training and then into team performance in games.

"I think it would be possible (for Malacia to return) in 1to 2 months."

Croatia I think mate.

Last year’s tournament was streamed on the Dinamo Plus app.

Like wtf...I live near Trencin in Slovakia, currently on a business trip to Croatia. How the heck do I not know about this..
Too late now.
Oh, and cheers mate.
 
We’re in the final! For the second consecutive year.

FT 1-1 (Biancheri pen)

We’ll face either the hosts Dinamo or Juventus tomorrow (10:30 BST). They’ll play their ”semi-final” later today. We'll have an extra 8hrs to recover compared to the other potential finalists.

Devaney was brilliant. Good performances from Armer, Fletcher, Biancheri and Mantato too.
 
Fair play to Liverpool, they struck where United couldn't defend. And unless United find a functional replacement for Casemiro, EtH wont last very long. That midfield is paper thin and it's painful to watch it getting bypassed by one simple pass.

Nothing we didn’t know mate tbh. Not arsed about the result but all things considered I thought it was another encouraging run out with further signs of improvement on the pressing game a lot of teams will struggle with this season. Mixed in again with some nice play that led to a hat full of chances, which I’m still shocked we didn’t bag a few goals.

More encouraging signs from the likes of Collyer and Amass who look to be the next in line breaking through to the first team squad.

After the tour I’m very optimistic going into the new season with the new additions made so far and the ones that are likely to come in. Buzzing for the rest of the squad to finally all be together starting Monday. So we can get them up to speed on how this new coaching regime wants them to play.
 
This was our biggest problem last night that cost us mostly not that the result mattered but would have been different if Liverpools 2 GKs were not excellent and some poor finishing likely down to end of tour fatigue. Other than that it was individual errors that led to Pools goals not being played through with good footy. The rest of the match stays were pretty much 50/50

U19s currently 2-2 in the final atm after 51 mins. 2 top youth sides going toe to toe with some great footy on display.
 
Unlucky lads great tournament and final well worth £6 to watch.

FT

Dinamo 3-2 United (Devaney, Thwaites)

Dinamo scored in the last few mins to win and avoid a penalty shootout. This u18s team gonna be the one to beat again at this level this season.
 
Elyh Harrison wins the best goalkeeper award at the Under-19s tournament called Mladen Ramljak in Zagreb for the second consecutive year.
🧤
Fantastic performance by #MUFC's no. 1 in the final, the super-talented Harrison made more than a few saves!

To be honest we all know Casemiro 's legs have gone, but until he accepts it himself and takes a paycut or some club which plays at a slower and lower standard comes in with a offer with wages acceptable to him then he isn't going anywhere. Shame the club didn't take the Saudi money in January but that's by the by.

Also the squad was missing a raft of players who are either coming back from long term injury or whom spent much of the summer representing their countries. You don't win anything in pre-season games just bragging rights, even the most hardened fan would rather see their team beating their rivals in a league or cup game than in what is effect a training session. There were positives on show and if they can find away of putting the chances into the net (remember there were no out and out strikers in the side due to Hojlund's injury and Zirkzee not joining up with the squad) then it won't be so much of a worry going forward.

I agree, but other than Bruno and Mainoo, no one else is good/fit enough.
You don't need pure DM like Casemiro, just someone mobile and defensively solid enough to track his player.

I think Mounts good enough and Collyer could be. But I agree the likes of Eriksen, Casemiro, McTominey, Hannibal are not against most teams in the Prem. Most likely why we are looking to bring in Ugarte and Amarabat. Then hopefully the rest we won’t have to see much of in a starting sense.
