I curse Man United … I hope you always come 4-7th so that the Glazers never leave. Absolutely crucial for us to have had him for depth during a WC- interrupted year.
Tchouameni: needs time and guidance
Cama: wasted at DM, rushes into tackles, much better at B2B
Alaba: Playing DM at Bayern in a third rate league is different from playing it in Liga.
You lots already have 2 of the best young DM/B2B in the world, it’s about time to let Casemiro go and let him pursue his final big contract move elsewhere. With Tchouameni and Cama standing by, you are not going to play him all the time until he reaches 34-35 anyway.

You guys already have Alaba
Why do people keep saying this ?… Alaba did ok as an occasional DM playing for Bayern in a third rate league. At that time he was playing for Pep with a peak Robben and Ribery. It was so easy that under Pep Bayern played formations like 2-3-5 and 3-3-4 regularly in his 3 years there.

This is bullshit … Fred‘s job is to act as an extra body in attack and defence … basically to make himself a nuisance at either end … The creative job is left to Paqueta. At United you should use Eriksen in Paqueta’s role.

It’s all about signing the perfect partner for Casemiro now. It doesn’t have to be a world beater but the right guy.

We desperately need the “glue” guy to play that #8. A player who excels at short passes and movement that allows him to always be available for a pass. Players such as Vitinha who recently went to PSG would have been ideal for that role.

Tielemans would probably be the most affordable but least inspiring choice. Koke would be the most intriguing but way too expensive for us.

Other players potentially include;
- Tonali
- Caquaret

Paredes is looking for a way out of PSG.

This is the most embarrassed and hurt I have felt as a United fan. We are every fecking asshole's joke. Total circus. I hate Glazers and their brainless minions pretending to be football executives. Darren Fletcher should be ashamed that he is part of this disaster. Glazer squad doesn't care but Fletcher is supposed to be a true red and he is associated with complete trashing of this great club

He'll be great for my Bet Builders. Always good for a yellow card, along with Carvajal.

Do you think whether it is real or not changes anything? We are the butt of everybody's cheap jokes. It is just reflective of our current disastrous state.

P.S. I have absolutely nothing against Casemiro, if he signs for us. Hopefully improves our midfield, but spending 3.5 months talking about De Jong, then losing 2 horrible games to nothing clubs, and now Casemiro becoming the signing of the transfer season... I don't know how I don't get a heart attack watching this disaster

So you don't care if anything is real or fake you just want to moan and indulge in negativity, christ.

That's enough Internet for you buddy. We've lost the opening two games disgracefully and you're more upset about Twitter memes. It will seriously do wonders for your mental health to go offline a while. Come back refreshed

If he joins I am afraid his will be a Schweinsteiger all over again.
How? Casemiro is not in the steep physical decline that Basti was, nor has the injury record. Not only that, he's not going to half-arse it either like Basti did. All reports hint he relishes a challenge here.

Nope. I am upset because it actually reflects exactly where we are. Where it was posted and real or a joke - doesn't matter

You're over indulging in negativity and are coming across as embarrassing yourself. Ted has a point, turn the phone/pc off.

I've been skeptical of this deal but the best part is that this will free up the likes of Fred and Erisken. Especially the former who not longer has to keep pretending to be a holding midfielder.

Like I said, you're a victim of social media which doesn't reflect reality. Please take a break from the internet. I'm worried about your mental state.

United get bantered all the time. Paddy Power have been having their fun for years. Nothing new to see here. Move on.

Haha. Yeah we bought Schweinsteiger back in 2014 or 15 thinking that he is in steep decline? We bought him because we thought he still wants to play and has something to offer, the same reason we are after Casemiro.
We are in desperate need to find some young talent and build upon. We brought Ibrahimovic, Cavani, Ronaldo - all World class in their day - but how do you build anything around that? Where continuity will come from? Casemiro is declining clearly. He is not the guy he was 5 years ago. His 2021–22 season was visibly worse than any of previous 4-5 prior to that.

We have signed world class players before and all of them flopped. Heck, all our signings in the past 10 years flopped, let's stop signing anyone!

All youth players promoted from our academy is also doing badly at the moment, let's not promote any more youngsters!

Let's play with Redcafe XI because this group have not failed yet.

I swear to God some of you here are dumb as rocks. Actually that is insulting to rocks.

Brilliant signing. I'm amazed that there are people turning up their nose at the lynchpin of a side that won 5 CL and 3 La Ligas because he's 30. McTominay to Casemiro is literally the biggest upgrade I have ever seen. No exaggeration. I challenge anyone to think of a better replacement in a top team's starting line-up.

My only worry would be if he's moving purely for the money. But even then, he's such a professional that I think he'd be elite even as a mercenary. He looks like he has a great deal of professional pride.
Congratulations. Massive gain for your team. I would think other players trying to give less than full effort around Casemiro will not find much sympathy.

People laughed at us for signing Silva at 35, and it has absolutely changed many of our players.

You’re getting Casemiro at 30. He’s still in his prime really.

Definitely keep your eye on the prize with the Glazers, but this is big news.

I would pull Bruno fir the start of next game. Let Casemiro anchor, play Fred, and give Eriksen a shot up top where he plays best.

At the very least you can immediately set the message Bruno needs to be on his game and consistent to get time. And if you do get De Jong? Wow.
Arsenal and Chelsea fans have more brains and footballing knowledge than a large chuck of our own self deprecating, miserable fan base.

Hilarious :lol:

We're being taken to the cleaner by Madrid again after Varane. They knew something we dont. My bet is Casemiro already have retirement in his mind and we're his last big big paycheck.

But on the otherhand, I also realize we dont have much choice with the condition we're in

Retirement in mind when he has turned 30?

Everyone and his dog knows this, you're not that special.
United, unfortunately, is in a position where we will have to choose our poison and pray it is less painful than the others.
