  1. Option/replacement for Casemiro

    Unpopular opinion, but I would love a midfield of Mount, Mainoo and Neves (from Benfica). I think that's a lot of energy, pressing, good passing and combativeness across the midfield.
  2. Should Ten Hag get the sack if he fails to qualify for the CL?

    What on earth is this thread about.... The improvement in the playing style and the players is miles ahead of last year. You can't rebuild an entire squad on a limited budget in one year. Anyone who think ETH should be sacked needs to stop calling themselves a fan.
  3. Club Sale | It’s done!

    Thank you for clarifying. I hope the majority do see it as an issue. If they do buy the club, I hope there are systems in place to ensure fans and even employees of the club arent alienated or treated differently.
  4. Club Sale | It’s done!

    Hi there, I don't wish to get in an argument but your comment is (maybe unintentionally) flippant. Please read about human rights in Qatar right now: https://www.amnesty.org/en/location/middle-east-and-north-africa/qatar/report-qatar/ Women cannot make any decisions without male guardians...
  5. Club Sale | It’s done!

    I am not excited about the prospect of Qatar owning Utd. Most fans seem to be excited about them as owners because they assume they will bring in lots of money. I think that's greed talking, and it just comes back to bite you. There is nothing to suggest the group know much about running a...
  6. Realistic buyers...

    I echo a lot of the sentiment here. I think the club can't have one owner and that isn't a bad thing. My wish is that shares are sold and fans are able to buy them. I have seen a few people on SM hope for the Saudi's ... I will be the first person outside OT protesting that murdering regime...
  7. The ONLY way to communicate with the Glazers. Boycott a televised game

    Hi, I was referring to the atmosphere around the club in general and the constant recycling of negativity towards every aspect of the club. I am not trying to wind anyone up. This morning I saw lots of posts, on this website, in the news and SM, regarding Ole needing replacing. If you re-read my...
  8. The ONLY way to communicate with the Glazers. Boycott a televised game

    Am I the only one who is getting tired of this narrative? It seems that this club can't do anything right by anyone. We lose a couple of games everyone wants Ole out. We win 5 games in a row, Ole should stay. The players are good then they aren't good enough. The club were wrong not to buy...
  9. Wot, no transfers? It's all happening now!

    Truth is, no one knows what is going on behind the scenes. Fans are impatient but big money deals are complicated and there is so much at stake currently with the unpredictable nature of the pandemic. I had hoped that MU could take advantage of Madrid and Barca's current financial weaknesses and...
  10. If the choices are signing one superstar/strengthening the squad - what do you do?

    My first choice would be Jadon Sancho. We saw how Rooney made a difference and more recently how Bruno made a difference. Sancho is in the same class and will make others like Rashford, Martial, Mason and James raise their standard a little. I am no expert in the transfer market, but if we...
  11. David Brooks

    I really hope it's true. Yes he was injured last year but he is a talented player and doesn't seem to have the behaviour issues that Grealish has. I think Mata and Andreas are leaving and we need a really good back up in CM.
  12. The deadwood and the backups

    I Think thee club has slowly got rid of under performing players and I think they will try to move on Jones, Rojo, Sanchez, Lingard and Mata. Not sure we would get a lot of money for them, but I would like to see some new additions to make sure there is quality and competition across the squad...
  13. Eight games away from another disastrous season under Ole

    I am not sure I understand this thread at all.. was it started as a joke or just to wind people up? Ole is just lucky? Then what was Fergie - always winning in Fergie time?? I don't understand why people struggle to be optimistic. Ole is just finishing his first full season. He has bought some...
  14. Donny van de Beek | van de Beek's father: "[Moving to United] a dream come true."

    I would like to see VDB at the club. I feel that Lingard, Andreas, Mata and Matic are soon on the way out. Bringing in VDB and then slowly giving more games time to Gomes and Garner would give us good depth in the midfield. Having said that, I try not to get too excited about these rumours...
  15. A serious look at Mauricio Pochettino

    I don't know why people love Pochettino so much. Just reminds me of the fuss people made about Jose... we all know how that panned out. We might need a new manager, but Ole is working with a squad that desperately needs reinforcement. I don't think Poch is gonna come in and turn Andreas into a...
