  1. Hating Lingard

    he hasn’t always been shite but, granted, he doesn’t even resemble a professional footballer at the moment. I can see his career trajectory falling off a cliff at this rate.
  2. Hating Lingard

    He’s completely shot. He needs taking out the firing line until he can sort his head out. Maybe ole thinks the squad is too thin to do this but he’s a waste of a player in the XI.
  3. Cameron Borthwick-Jackson

    CBJ is a strange one. He looked a decent prospect, has that amazing ability to cross and was trained up as a central defender so it appeared he had lots of the tools to give it a decent go. He played well when he broke through under LVG and then once LVG was sacked a series of disastrous loan...
  4. Andreas Pereira | 2019/20 Performances

    What more is there to add? A very poor performance from a player who's role is unclear, who doesnt have any obvious stand out strengths and, crucially, shows no sign of improving. Ole needs to be ruthless after that performance. If this is a write off season of rebuilding then we aren't building...
  5. Ravel Morrison | Derby player

    Be reallly interesting to see how this turns out. He's either going to smash the premier League or have his contract "terminated by mutual agreement" in October
  6. The Manchester United player I most want out is...

    Alexis Sanchez, without a doubt. The worst transfer in the club's history. I wonder if the alleged toxic dressing room stems from his huge salaey. The main job of whoever is in control of the ins and outs this summer is to find someone willing to take him off our hands and then sort an...
  7. Scott McTominay | 2018/19 Performances

    He's proved me wrong. He has more in his locker than I originally gave him credit for. He is much more than just a functional, keep it simple, neat and tidy, short pass and move, midfielder. He has strength, an ability to keep and play the ball from tight positions and a great positional sense...
  8. Callum Gribbin

    Is there any news, official or otherwise on Callum anywhere? I can't seem to find any. Hope the lad is OK.
  9. Do we want to lose to City?

    Jeez, cop onto yourselves lads. Why would we give a feck about any other team than ourselves? So you'd want to lose the derby because you can't "cope" with a bit purile "banter" from colleagues, friends, family should Liverpool (deservingly, if they pip pep) win the title? We're united, we have...
  10. 1 mega signing, 1 big-ish signing, 1 prospect

    Sancho is the obvious and seemingly unanimous choice. British and capable of playing in a quick fluid attack. I'd complement Sancho with Declan Rice. De ligt would be a dream signing, especially if bailly and rojo are on their way out. There we go - 3 signings maximum, de ligt, sancho and rice.
  11. Diogo Dalot | 2018/19 Performances

    For the first time,last night, I realised that we have a proper footballer on our hands with Dalot. Let's see how he develops, it's clear ole rates his attacking side as he has played in front of young. Whereas I would have predicted the reverse. He can dribble. At pace and cross and appears to...
  12. Phil Jones | 2018/19 Performances

    In Fergie's day Phil Jones would have ended up as his utillty man. Fergie always had room in his squad for a Blackmore, Phil Neville and John O'Shea type who can cover any defensive position. Unfortunatly the game has moved on a bit and there's no real need for those type of utility men given...
  13. Scott McTominay | 2018/19 Performances

    While it's true picking those youths who can make the step up is a complete lottery - I always thought Larnell Cole would be the one, rather than Jesse Lingard - I was rather baffled at McTominays promotion last season. It will be interesting to see how Ole uses him if at all - an appearance on...
