There is nothing to suggest it will happen, at all.Don't be so sure about that

Except him not having a new contract and us being linked with new goalkeepersThere is nothing to suggest it will happen, at all.
We’ve an option on the contract so no rush there and we’ve been linked with keepers endlessly for about 5 yearsExcept him not having a new contract and us being linked with new goalkeepers
Especially since the GK position is pretty essential for the way we want to play.
DDG is doing well though so who know, but I wouldn't rule anything out here
Not so sure. Our 1st priority will be a striker -- and those will be in the £70-100million range. So I don't think we can afford to spend another £50m on the sort of keeper that ETH needs. I think a promising CB will be a higher priority than a DDG replacement next summer.Disagree. I see Rashford and Shaw as mainstays. Sancho, it's up to him. DDG will be gone in summer for sure ( on a free, this is our chance)
I know we have an option but you said there is nothing to suggest it, when in fact there is.We’ve an option on the contract so no rush there and we’ve been linked with keepers endlessly for about 5 years
Not necessarily with us but we've seen every other manager change their GK, Pep with Hart to Bravo to Ederson, Klopp from mignolet? to Alisson, Arteta from Leno to Ramsdale. I find it hard to believe ETH won't change. We shall see. My main thing though is this is a great chance to move on from DDGThere is nothing to suggest it will happen, at all.
De Gea is significantly better than all of those who were outgoing, Leno was Arsenal keeper under Arteta for 2 years even then.

Signs are good so far, but this statement has been bandied about at the certain point of pretty much every one of our managers' tenure, post Fergie by a significant section of our fanbase. Let's not get too carried away.First time in years(And I think all of you will agree with me) that I actually like and can relate to a Manchester United team
And you feel excited on matchdayFirst time in years(And I think all of you will agree with me) that I actually like and can relate to a Manchester United team
Er... no. There's a fairly good chance it does happen once his contract expires. He does not suit Ten Hagball and he's getting paid the third most in the squad.Absolutely no chance this happens.
As I said ten hag has us playing the best football and getting results against the big sides since lvg's overall record and performances against the same sides, unless you think mourinho and ole did better with their sitting back and hoping to stop the opposition whilst nicking a goal on the break..We looked so good with LVG winning 1-0 against Arsenal with no shot on target.
Who?The cnut who shan't be named situation.
I couldn’t believe how many people thought this was a great idea. Sell good players when their value is at an all time low and buy 10 new players and expect them to instantly click and challenge for a title. Many forgot that you bring in a world class manager to improve the existing squad and identify the most glaring holes, which ten Hag has done brilliantly thus far. The club will back him with significant funds once they see the success of his first transfer window.I watched us swamp Liverpool and Arsenal while DDG had little to do. I watched us smother Leicester and Southampton in between that as well. Everton away was exactly like yesterday only we scored our chances in the first half. That is more impressive because it was so early in the process rather than now when we are finally up and running imo. The pressure was immense back then but the players and manager stood up to it.
You see, you just made it a grand statement. He said we needed up to 10 players to change our style of play, not win a league.10 players in one window I might add. Forest style team building
Absolutely ridiculous when you look back on it. People were jumping on that demanding a new first 11! Then fans were crying when Ten Hag dismissed that nonsense and he’s been proven right to do so
Our former academy starlet with very serious accusations against his name.Who?
Well you can probably blame Roy Keane for the fact you haven't.We need a quality striker. The chances that fell to Rashford in Newcastle and Chelsea game, if we have a Haaland, we would have won both game comfortably.
Nah, we wanted him before he went to Dortmund but his people wanted a release clause.Well you can probably blame Roy Keane for the fact you haven't.
If not, he needs to get out in fresh air moreI'm still weighing up whether this MUFC OK fella is an oppo fan on a wind up. If it is then it's a pretty good one. More subtle than usual
As good as he's been, we'll be going for Costa, the Porto keeper in the summer.We’ve an option on the contract so no rush there and we’ve been linked with keepers endlessly for about 5 years
Our last 9 league games has seen 6 wins, two draws and a loss. A run that has included Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs, City, Chelsea and Newcastle. Despite that, and the nightmare start to the season, we are a point off 4th having had by far the most difficult run of fixtures of the top 6, and bedding in a new system. But yet you talk about average results etc. Your analysis is clueless in the extreme.It’s going to the wire and we could easily end up 5th/6th. That’s realistic currently.
Yeah EtH has done a great job thus far - even more importantly than the playing style where you can see the improvement, the change in the culture in the squad is the actually the biggest win.Our last 9 league games has seen 6 wins, two draws and a loss.

The first two games count unfortunately - you’ve conveniently left those out. Let’s see how we do against West Ham, Villa and Fulham before the break. I’d say that if they all park the bus they each have a good chance of a getting a result.Our last 9 league games has seen 6 wins, two draws and a loss.

"he'll be so relieved" says Neville, while he visibly and obviously yells at his team to push for the winTweet

I haven’t conveniently left them out. That’s why we are 1pt from top four. If we’d done better in those games we’d be in the top four. But it’s also a fact our last 9 games have yielded those results against top opposition. If you would rather judge a manager on his first two games in charge more than the 9 which followed it, I can’t help you. If you can’t see how good results have been since those first two games, I can’t help you there either. If you can’t accept we are one point off top four after a brutal run of games then there is no hope at all for you. I just don’t understand your rationale, or to be honest complete lack of.The first two games count unfortunately - you’ve conveniently left those out.

You mentioned the last 9 games to prove a point and left out the first two. I’m judging on all we’ve seen so far, including Europa games too. We have serious problems breaking down smaller teams that sit back but you are right our results against bigger teams have been good. That’s my rationale.I haven’t conveniently left them out.

go on then, own up, which of United’s rivals do you really support?You mentioned the last 9 games to prove a point and left out the first two.

Also don’t think the the catastrophic language is necessary purely because I don’t agree with you - ‘no hope at all for you’. Get a grip
I see, I must support a rival because I’m not entirely happy with us sat in 6th in the league and am not ejaculating everywhere over a draw against Chelsea when we should have won.go on then, own up, which of United’s rivals do you really support?
Maybe Chelsea, he got really going after we schooled them. He can’t stand that we are doing well.go on then, own up, which of United’s rivals do you really support?
Might well be joint third after our game in hand.I see, I must support a rival because I’m not entirely happy with us sat in 6th in the league
