  1. Aubameyang - yay or nay?

    Nay for me. Mans 30 years of age and at £45m there’s no value there at all, he’d be decent for a season max. We need to be scouting and signing the next Aubameyang, not filling the pension pot of the current one. United shouldn’t become the cash cow of the almost retired. Sanchez a case in point.
  2. Is it worth trying to keep a player who wants to leave?

    Unfortunately no. If he’s a world beater (a la ronaldo in 2009) then its worth keeping him for a year, but that isn’t the case with Pogba. We should cash in and invest in players that want to be at the club. Rumours of Christian Eriksen and Tanguy Ndombele, both would be great options. No one...
  3. Kieran Tierney | signed for Arsenal

    Tierney is a quality full back and someone I would love to see the club go for. Talk about a man that would give 100% every game and be a stalwart at the club for many years, he’s only just turned 22. He won the Scottish young footballer of the year three years in a row from 16-18, I know it’s...
  4. Pogba Future

    The narrative at united has completely changed this season. At the start of 19 season: following a second place finish in 18, europa league win in 17 and FA Cup win in 2016; we were supposed to finally kick on and challenge for the title. Cue Mourinho not getting his transfers and subsequent...
  5. Anthony Martial as Number 9

    Solskjær had it right when he first came into the club as manager. I’m paraphrasing, but he was asked “what can you do to bring the best out of Sanchez?”, who was having an absolute stinker of a season as we all know. Ole replied saying “it’s not about how I can get the best out of him, he has...
  6. Predict the United first team 2019/20

    Hope for: DDG AWB - Lindelof - Upamecano - Shaw N.Pepe - Ndombele - Pogba - K.Havertz Rashford - martial Likely: Romero Young - Smalling - Jones - Shaw Lingard - Pogba - Fred - Mata Lukaku - Rashford With squad additions like James, max aarons, Longstaff.
  7. Our biggest problem - managers, players, or owners?

    It starts from the top. We need to get rid of parasitic owners who treat the club like a cash cow and invest nothing of their own. We need a hierarchy at the top who’s focus is on the team, in terms of personnel as well as recruitment strategy and academy structure. At the moment the focus is...
  8. Sell me the Glazers: Positive Arguments for Glazer ownership

    The Glazers are a parasite on this club. Their leveraged takeover masterminded by Edward Woodward lumped the club with £750m debt. Since they’ve joined they’ve taken net £1Bn out of the club, that would pay for a fine squad and some leftover for stadium renovations. They run the club like a...
