Yeah, i really thought he'd kick on. That front 3 was looking promising. Maybe it will be me eating my words again this season. About Dalot, martial, our midfield, our lack of quality depth etc
No worries mate, its all fun and games here! And lets hope so about dalot and co!

Rashford really needs to do something. All he's got at this stage is pace.

It's obvious that Liverpool are much less prepared than us and also look completely knackered. I found out their preseason only started last Monday. Some of our players have been back in training for 2 weeks.
Some of our players, not all.

McFred, Shaw, Dalot, Bruno all started same time as Liverpool.

BBC must be devastated, according to them "Well, I simply have no idea how Liverpool have not equalised there." :rolleyes:

Seems my point in the other thread saying we might scoring more goals without Ronaldo - maybe not have one player score more then him last season - but as a team will for sure benefit of giving Bruno his star status back, and having him be the playmaker behind hopefully Sancho, Antony and Rashford/Martial.

Looks really good today. Bring in a backup GK 0-5m, Mukiele 10m, FDJ 70m, Pau Torres 40,, Martinez 50m (for the CDM position), Eriksen 0m and Antony 50m and we will end up top three - if our most important players stays healty. 245m would be one great investment (also selling Andreas for 10m, Bailly for 20m, Jones 5m, Williams 10m, Ronaldo for 25m and one of AWB or Dalot for 25-30m) would give us 85-90m back. Total spent 235m minus the around 85 = 150m we would get back from sales which would put us on spending no insane numbers first transfer windows but get improvens in RB, CB, CDM, CM, RW and have really good rotating CAM in Eriksen would been great buisness. And all of these guys actually wanting, some even demanding a transfer, will bring back the moral (I have a feeling that even FDJ would like to join us but he would see it like a step back for his PR status, but if we get at least top 4 (=CL) and get all these players, next summer will be interesting.

I at least already see a new Manchester United today, i belive in ETH and the United squad we can easily get - its mostly up to us on all players mentioned above except FDJ so far.

......................DDG
Mukiele Varane Torres Malacia
..........Martinez De Jong

Oxlade-Chamberlain is still with them? I thought he would be offloaded to a team where he can play more games by now.

De Gea spraying it.
Tony pressing and scoring.
Sancho balling.
Fred scoring a chip with his right foot.

This a sign of things to come or another LVG pre-season?

Some openness in play with us committing numbers forward.

But pressing, forward movement, forward passing... love it.

I'd long given up on Martial ever living up to his potential, but if this performance is a sign of things to come, I'm well him.

Sancho and Shaw look good together as well.
