Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
YemiBrazil - if I had the “only 3 in and 3 out” limitation I would:
SELL:
1) Lindelof - bang average: get rid.
2) Telles - how did Brazil go from great LBs such as Serge Branco, Roberto Carlos, and Marcelo - to Alex Telles? Telles is a good crosser of the ball, but little else (looks like he is on the verge of falling over every time he gets the ball).
3) Maguire - I cannot say anything that has not already been said.
BUY:
1) Osimhen or Vlahovic (the trouble is that either of them will cost north of 80 million - which might blow the entire/most of the transfer budget on one player).
2) Gvardiol - buying this guy guarantees the future of the defence for the next 12 years.
3) Ruben Neves - the closest thing to Michael Carrick playing in the EPL. He is a low risk signing as he already plays in the EPL and knows the league.
With such transfer limitations, and 3 defenders leaving, the club has to work with what it already has and “rehabilitate” some players:
*I still think there is a high class player lurking somewhere inside Sancho. If he can get his mind right and confidence back, the sky is the limit for him.
*Move Martinez to/rotate between LB and CDM (where his accurate passing and vision would do more damage).
*I would bring Bailly back from loan. He is injury prone, but when he gets on the pitch he is a fast and aggressive nutter.
*Tuanzebe - injuries have ruined this lad. 3 years ago he put Mbappe and Neymar in his back pocket and played like a Rolls Royce defender. Since then he has played about 3 games.
*I would swap the young lads around a bit. Bring Diallo back from loan next season and send Elanga, Pellestri, and Nathan Bishop on loan instead. I would also send VDB out on loan (to regain confidence and fitness). He is too good a player to rot on the bench.
THE HEADACHES:
Henderson: he is a problem. He is too ambitious, cocky, and too good to sit on the bench. Yet it is not certain that he has matured enough to replace DDG. If the club brings him back from loan and does not make him #1 he will keep up a —-t storm and destabilise the dressing room.
Phil Jones clearly has a chronic illness that is so severe that the club is keeping it under wraps to protect his medical confidentiality (like they did when Fletch had irritable bowel syndrome).

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
I definitely agree with your 3 in and 3 out.

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
I agree. I decided to check him out last night with video highlights, match reports and some fan comments. Pretty decent stop gap and even better than anyone available in that position at the club. He is actually my type of forward. He could even eventually be bought permanently as a backup striker to whoever they figure out as the best option in the market.

it will be a fantastic deal for United! Fantastic deal! You get an experienced player who is very strong in areas where your attack is presently weak. He wont insist on being a starter, but he will probably score more goals than the starter - Martial. In the summer, you say goodbye to him, thank him for the CL position and go out and get Osimhen!
You guys should be praying to get this deal. I saw him in Germany and he has carried on in Turkey. The 6 months are Burnley does not show his qualities due to Burnely's style and the fact that they were playing panic football, trying to avoid relegation.

why not? I will only question a choice if whoever manages the team is not involved.

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Oh no. Romano rarely gets these things wrong.
Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Like others have mantioned in above posts, i also give this signing the benefit of the doubt.
I see it as a Ten Hag choice.
So far Ten Hag has done more than enough to prove he has a clear idea of what he wants.
He is not exactly Henrik Larsson, but that kind of signing that United have done before.....

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Man United need Weghorst now but have long-term ambition to sign Osimhen, Sesko or Kane

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
United playing very well against their city rivals and current best team in English football underlines the progress made so far in the past few months. That's not saying much because Ole whooped Man City many times. The difference here so far is in the actual performance and match control. Well done Ten Hag, this would have been a productive first half if Ten Hag has a proper striker in his team.
United on the right track and we should be excited going forward.

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Remember when an Arsenal fan (not sure if it was you) asked why people hate Arsenal and their fans? This, right here, is the reason! United wins a derby after years of pain, rather than allow their fans to enjoy it, an Arsenal fan comes in to make it all about Arsenal

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Very bizarre first. Glitch in the VARtrix. Well received at Ashburton. Could be a ploy worth exploiting, player stays deliberately offside, runs towards the ball to draw the defender’s attentions, but doesn’t touch the ball, leaving it for the onrushing troops. Bosh!!!
