The Manchester United Thread

Great win for the women in the CL tonight against Atletico Madrid. That puts us into the quarterfinals. Excellent achievement in itself considering it’s our first time in the CL proper
 
Hopefully Moyes doesn't throw a spanner in the works on Monday night :rolleyes:

They are pretty poor at home though... So fingers crossed we don't take 2 steps back.
 
U18s won 3-1 this weekend to stay in touch with City. We also have a game in hand.

U16s won a tournament somewhere

Unfortunately the women lost to Chelsea in the fa cup. Was nothing in it Chelsea nicked it in extra time via a set piece. Absolutely can’t fault the women who are absolutely depleted with injuries. Gave there all after a massive win on Thursday night in the CL. Chelsea had a weeks rest and a squad of about 30 WC players to choose from
 
I think I said it on here, but PGMOL actually has to change the rules regarding surrounding the keeper. I dont think anyone wants to watch more than a mintute for each setpiece and the keeper literally being pinned and being blocked from being able to move. It's gone too far now.

That’s actually a good one. There was one set piece they actually form a ring around him. Fair play to him though he didn’t get flustered and punched or claimed them all. Been an excellent signing

tip to Tony Coton. Pushed hard for ages for Lammens having seen club go against his wishes on Onana. Also credit to Wilcox for backing the #MUFC GK scout’s judgement when Amorim wanted Martinez at Villa

How might the #EFC game have turned out for #MUFC had it been Onana not Lammens in goal?

One of the PL’s buys of the season. “Instead of creating chaos, he takes it away”

First for goals prevented among PL GKs this season.

That gives vintage counter attacking last night top class. That pass from Cunha to Embeumo was unreal. And that sprint was immense and rapid from Sesko. Then the composure at the end of it 🤤🤤

I still think he works best coming off the bench. Yes he cost alot of money but he was the most raw out of all the top money strikers bought in last summer. Let him get used to the league away from having to be the main man like poor hojland.

I disagree regarding him being the main Striker he has more support as the front man with Cunha and Mbeumo unlike Hojlund who effectively was isolated. If the club had brought in those two a season earlier I doubt Sesko would have been signed.

Oh I agree I just think we both said the same thing in a different way 😂 Hojland would've actually developed well if he was rotated and had others to take the burden of scoring goals unlike ****** Garnacho etc. Cunha and Mbeumo are upgrades that allow less eyes on Sesko so he can develop without having to carry the whole attack.

Unlike yourself I think game time is better for his development, you can only learn so much about the league by sitting on the bench and coming on for 20 mins mid-game. Carrick is actually doing the right thing by playing him from the start for certain games (Palace was ideal in that they aren't one of the bigger teams, they played in Europe during the week and they aren't in the best form in the league), I wouldn't expect him to play from the start every game but to start sufficient games to ensure he doesn't loose the momentum he currently has.
