Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Man Utd loan watch:
Tuanzebe has returned to Aston Villa and Fosu-Mensah will spend the season at Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga. Good moves for both of them as it guarantees them a game every week. They are not likely to get games with Valencia, Young, Bailly, Jonesy, Mike Smalling, Lindelof, Mark Red, Shaw, Dalot, and Darmian (what is he still doing at the club?!) ahead of them.
Dalot is a bizarre signing. Unless he is a significant upgrade on Tuanzebe and Fosu-Mensah (unlikely), spending 17 million on another untested, unproven young defender who will block Tuanzebe and Fosu-Mensah's path to the first team, seems very strange. Another un-needed signing like Lindelof.
Young GK Sam Johnstone has been transferred to WBA.
Could this be the breakthrough season for young Andreas Pereira?

Man Utd got offer for Pogba from Barca ? Gomes + Mina + $50m ... That naa insult if true.

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
A bit haphazard. Fred/DM was needed to come in for the retired Carrick. Biggest squad reinforcement needs were cover at RB for Tony V and a MOBILE CM. Dalot (young and untested) is not the short-term answer. Ironically the answer to some of Man Utd's squad gaps may be lurking in the youth team. Two of them (Fosu-Mensah and Tuanzebe) have been sent out on loan. Andreas Pereira may get picked because Matic is injured, and Pogba and Fellaini are on extended post-World Cup break.

Considering how much he has spent of recent, JM should not be complaining. Problem is always buying what he does not need. He may be getting a 'cut' from the various deals!wiseone wrote:A bit haphazard. Fred/DM was needed to come in for the retired Carrick.

He is mismanaging the team! He can only motivate 'hungry' players and not stars. He will always fallout with stars with ego.

Hear me out.

Mourinho and United parting ways. What top manager will be available?
Now consider...Juventus, Allegri will have his best chance to win the CL now he has Cristiano, a stronger backline, (weaker GK though) but if he fails to win it, how much longer will he keep trying at Juve? He has nothing to really gain in winning another Scudetto with them. No point going back to Milan. All the other top teams in Europe have new managers or managers they are happy with for now ...other than United.
Allegri....one of the managers out there to have coaxed the best out of Pogba....making the move to the Premier League and United.
And as for Juve? The return of Zinedine Zidane to manage the squad. More believable than Zidane going to United.

Have to say I couldn't agree more with you.
Its almost like football is being decided by how many players you sign or how many useless pre-season games you win.
Its just plain ridiculous!

Liverpool, European Champions 2005.
We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

It is easier to sack the coach than do away with many the players! Martial and Pogba cannot be happy with his statements. How will he now count on such players.
JM has signed enough players. Maybe he was signing the wrong players.

why not go and complain in the Chelsea season thread then
If you recall last year, the major gripe with Conte, from his fans, was the sale of one Diego Costa.
Even neutrals like you saw the mumuness with that sale...and the eventual replacement
