4th? We will go into freefall over the next 2 months IMO. 6-7th at best.
I'd rather us sign nobody than make bad signings. This season is going to be a write off IMO.It would be pure crazy if we don't sign at least 2 players, ASAP.
Except, McT doesn't have a big mouth agent, and McT has never once uttered that he "wants a new challenge", and playing for a certain manager would be "a dream". Something very untoward about this latest Pogba debacle.Pretty clear McT doesn’t want to play for us anymore. First a knock, then a few weeks, now a few months. Sick of the circus around him. GET OUT OF MY CLUB!!111 Bet he celebrated New Year last night too.
It's all very vague. The timing is suspicious too. He's probably cooking up a move elsewhere and who'd blame him.Pretty clear McT doesn’t want to play for us anymore.

Half the caf ?2 injuries and our midfield is at a relegation battle level, who would've thought?

He's wumming, tries to spin the situation with Pogba as if there are any similarities with the injuries to McTominay.Are you being serious or WUMMING?
Thanks for letting me knowHe's wumming, tries to spin the situation with Pogba as if there are any similarities with the injuries to McTominay.
I haven't seen any upgrade thus far! What does Harry do better than Smalling ? Seems to be an average/shit passer just like Chris too. We coulda spent that £80m on midfieldHalf of the Caf knew this before the season started. Instead of buying a CM or a right winger we got a marginal upgrade on Smalling for 80 mil.
True but given that he’s probably given zero thought to the idea, we’ll end up in rushed, panic mode and end up signing a striker. Oh and we’ll probably sell Matic because we need to get rid of the negative elements - in fact, that’s more important than bringing in a new players, unless it’s the ‘right’ player, in which case we’ll target him in the summer, because we must remember that this is a process, and these things take time...So that's Mctominay out for the season and Pogba out indefinitely. Great.
Ed has nowhere to hide now. Reinforcements are a necessity if we harbor any hopes of finishing in the top four.
FanboysThese Twitter accounts are bigger Pogba fans than United.
Are you being serious seems like you're on a mad WUM. Don't think there is a chance he is wanting to go Spurs. How do you know that guy is. Although I don't Twitter never heard him mentioned before. What makes him a top source please?Looks like a top source says he must be wanting a move to Spurs. Only possible explanation for injury-spotted period.

They truly are, just like a lot of posters on the Caf these days. Pogba FC, Mourinho FC, Ronaldo FC, Messi FC, so many people are fans of everything or everyone but United, it's crazy.These Twitter accounts are bigger Pogba fans than United.
These are on a wind up. It's their way of making fun of people speculating on Pogba or attacking him.Are you being serious seems like you're on a mad WUM.

Not worthy of responding to blatant WUMMING. ThanksThese are on a wind up. It's their way of making fun of people speculating on Pogba or attacking him.
I insert "marginal" becasue i'm tired of arguing with some English posters on here. They see Maguire as one of the best CB in the world becasue you know he plays for England.I haven't seen any upgrade thus far! What does Harry do better than Smalling ?

Most of the fans predicted this would happen if we had injuries to our midfield players. We are far too thin in this area when we need to play so many games.I'd rather us sign nobody than make bad signings. This season is going to be a write off IMO.
Agree that most people could see this just wish that Woodwate could have seen it but I think he had do much faith in his own knowledge about football that we would be alright. Which clearly is not the case.Most of the fans predicted this would happen if we had injuries to our midfield players. We are far too thin in this area when we need to play so many games.
I mean it was quite clearly an impact injury in those back to back tackles against Newcastle.I assume you are sports medicine professionals, highly qualified to comment on how did his ligament injury occur.
We have Pogba, Fred & McTominay for two spots. The same goes with Chelsea as they only have Jorginho, Kante & Kovacic for two spots. Rather than calling it mistake, I’ll call it as unfortunate. If both James & Rashford got injured, what are you lot going to say? We made mistake for not signing another winger? If Shaw, Young & Williams got injured, what are you lot going to say? We made mistake for not signing a left back?We made a huge mistake by not signing a midfielder last summer,cause losing Pogba and Mctominay for a significant chunk of time could really derail our season.We have to try to bring someone in this month,even if it’s only on loan until the end of the season...If we are stuck with Fred,Matic and pereira for the next 7-8 games,then our season could go into a tailspin....
I'm probably alone in this but I'd much prefer to see Galbraith and Puigmal than Garner (or Levitt). Obviously, I'd rather we just got a good CM in, but we have to be realistic!This could be good opportunity for Garner or even Mensah if Ole sees him as midfielder.
Yeah, wouldn't surprise me to see Ole throw on TFM for 90mins after a year out, then see him out for another 6 months.This could be good opportunity for Garner or even Mensah if Ole sees him as midfielder.
The market is not really open though, who's available in the market? I think we need to actually make a choice here, make big gamble by signing a player who potentially will offer the same quality as Matic right now as that's the only type of quality we can get for CM or DM in this window OR another big gamble but doesn't cost us money by having faith in TFM, Garner, Levitt to backup both Fred & Matic for the next 1 or 2 months until Pogba or McTominay back.Yeah, wouldn't surprise me to see Ole throw on TFM for 90mins after a year out, then see him out for another 6 months.
In all seriousness, Levitt and Garner now have opportunities surely. We cannot run Fred into the ground and Matic won't be able to cope with more than a game a week. But the market is open...
We could look at the Portuguese league, the French league, the Dutch league, some of the Italian prospects (there are quite a few now), a bit of Eastern European mentality, we should of course be scouring the South American leagues for talent. In short, there are loads of potential avenues to explore if our "cultural reset" isn't just about buying British.The market is not really open though, who's available in the market?

Not sure where I said "buying British". List me the name then we can start discussing whether we should sign them or no. Because there is no point discussing it if there is no one available. The injury of Pogba & McTominay occurred now, no one would have predicted that both will be injured again at the same time which is probably why our scouts or management haven't prepare for this CM/DM option talent for this January windows.We could look at the Portuguese league, the French league, the Dutch league, some of the Italian prospects (there are quite a few now), a bit of Eastern European mentality, we should of course be scouring the South American leagues for talent.

I didn't say you did. But I am assuming (which I think is fair - as that's generally been how things have worked out for clubs) that our scouting network is actively at work and has dossiers on many more players than just some handful of targets. We're not in an ideal situation. We probably cannot go out and buy an elite player. We can definitely go out and spend an elite-player-fee on a "good player". But we can also buy highly promising prospects or buy solid professional squad players from abroad. My point is that I can't believe that there aren't players out there we can actually attain without being a laughing stock in how we do business in the market. Ahem.Not sure where I said "buying British".
If it's true we were interested in Haland & Koulibally before, then they are example of non-british players. Our scout did spot Martial and he's not British.I didn't say you did.
