  1. The two things I want Woodward to do.

    He needs to do the commerical stuff, and get a football man in. Yesterday
  2. How will seven central defenders be kept happy?

    The fact that Jones, Rojo and Smalling are still around is a huge disappointment.
  3. Season 2019/2020. The worst attack since 1992?

    If Sanchez can do what we all know he can, it will be like watching a different team.
  4. No chance of top 4 after incompetently handled transfer window ft 1000000% more tears and drama

    It's impossible to make any accurate predictions about league position and probably will be until after Christmas. Maybe Halloween. There's no point worrying about other clubs making this or that signing. What if they're rubbish or don't bed in etc? Besides, if United are the new Chelsea it...
  5. Why we must embrace a long-term approach

    I'd love to know why United haven't appointed a DoF. Maybe the right man isn't out there or isn't available. I'll rest as long as it hasn't been a case of nobody wanting to know because its considered a poison chalice. I understand though, that such a vital appointment is not one they can...
  6. Next Season Expectations

    I just want United to give their all in a game. We're going to lose some, yes. I've always said I don't mind losing as long as the other side deserved their victory. Too often last season, United got beat off teams that they really, shouldn't. At least make the other side really really graft for...
  7. Its all about Attitude

    This is spot on. I am reminded of a phrase. "Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn't work hard." Somebody ought to remind the current United players of this. When ones thinks of the Beckhams, Rios and Giggsys (and many more of course) of this world, they all possessed one common...
  8. Our Midfield

    Definitely a lot resting on Scot McTominay's shoulders this new season. He will certainly be expected to step up to the plate. Time will tell. As for Fred, he might, hopefully, show some of the class he has only showed in fleeting glimpses thus far. He might be another Bergkamp or Modric, who...
  9. Hating Lukaku

    I struggle to recall a player so openly disrespecting the club. He'd be no loss to the team. He clearly doesn't want to fight for his place. Let him, and be replaced by somebody who wants to earn the right to play for United. Let's face it, he'll never be forgiven by many fans, even in the...
  10. Do you still buy United kits? (Or any other United merchandise)

    I like obscure training kit, maybe. I'm getting to an age where it's starting to look naff.... thing is, nobody tells you!
  11. Why we must embrace a long-term approach

    This is an excellent and thought-provoking thread. To a large extent, I am viewing this new season as a clean sheet. Okay, not as clean as it might be though. United still have too many of the deadwood that let us down so badly in the final third of last season. I am sure I'm not alone in...
  12. MUTV Subscription

    I packed in MUTV after they got rid of 'United in Press'. It was great getting the perspective of the print journalists. Clearly MUFC board didn't like it when they were telling unpalatable home truths. A crying shame. I binned it after it was axed
  13. Is this window the one that brings us back to our identity?

    Too early to tell as yet. There may be some new signs that might things are improving. We have to be optimistic. It's a new season after all. I can share some fans' pessimism in that there is still too much deadwood around, that in days gone by would've been sold off. United are carrying...
  14. Manchester United Kits 2019/20

    Looking at the kits, and at some of the ones for other teams that adidas do, it seems that tight shoulders and arms are the vogue at the minute. The new Arsenal kit is the same. I'm not a fan of this style, personally. Shame, as they pretty good otherwise.
  15. What's your lowest point as a supporter since 2013?

    I had an awful sinking feeling when Moyes got rid of the coaching staff and replaced them with a bunch of nobodies. That should never have been allowed to happen. Much of the dross we've witnessed since can be traced back as far as that. As for low points, it's hard to single one out. If...
