  1. Viktor Gyökeres

    Another way to look at it is, that with £100m incoming for Bruno, the need to ship out the deadwood wouldn't have been so pressing, and most, if not all, would probably have stayed. Now, it's double important that Rashford, Sancho, Antony etc etc are shipped off, so more effort and focus will be...

  2. What is your order of priority for our transfer needs?

    Perhaps a controversial opinion from me. The signings of Cunha & Mbuemo would be absolutely fantastic, they tick every box and then some. Most people are saying that a #9 should now be top priority, but for me, it's Central Midfield, all day, every day. I keep repeating this again and again...

  3. What midfielder is suited to partner Bruno in the double pivot?

    I said this before, but I always feel that you cannot play with 3 in attack plus Bruno, it just leaves gaping holes in Midfield. Could we play with just the 2 numbers 10's up top, 2 industrious CMFs and Bruno in a free role similar to a false 9 ala Firmino..?

  4. Bruno Fernandes Out? | Staying at Man United

    I always feel that you cannot play with 3 in attack plus Bruno, it just leaves gaping holes in Midfield. Going forward, could Bruno play a false 9 ala Firmino..? Or could we play with just the 2 numbers 10's up top, 2 industrious CMFs and Bruno in a free role linking up..? It's always...

  5. Benjamin Sesko | Arsenal working on deal

    In theory it should, and if Arsenal are in heavily for one, they surely won't be in for both.

  6. Bruno Fernandes Out? | Staying at Man United

    The gamble is, where do those 39 goal involvements come from without him? Working on the assumption that ALL of a Bruno fee goes back into a transfer kitty, (which in itself is a bit of a gamble) who would bet that money isn't squanded on some over priced prospect? 15th with Bruno and all his...

  7. Bruno Fernandes Out? | Staying at Man United

    £100m for a player that will be 32 next year, when you're in the process of a total rebuild is like manna from heaven. Ordinarily.! Bruno carries this team, even in the worse season imaginable he has 39 goal contributions, so it's an almighty gamble cashing in, because you've somehow got to...

  8. No Europe - A blessing?

    Its logical that you can have a much smaller squad without any European football, the trouble is, that when Newcastle, Chelsea, Villa etc are chasing the same players, they might become more attractive options than a shite United team.

  9. Victor Osimhen | Agreement with Al Hilal | Gala offer mind blowing salary to keep him.

    I heard that he has already agreed a 3 year deal with Al Hilal playing in the Saudi League..

  10. The way we used to play

    That really, was Ole's downfall, because we did play some good football and score plenty of goals, but he fcking loved McFred, and still does. Even now, he still talks of them in glowing terms.

  11. Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur | Europa League final build-up thread (May 21st) | threadmarks for free viewing of game

    Same as yourself, law of averages, surely we must win one of of the four fixtures? Also, we should have won this competition a couple of times since Jose, isn't it time for us to get lucky? I would take a flukey 1-0 with a dodgy penalty to be honest..! Other than superstition, I have no faith...

  12. Have United had a better recent history than Arsenal?

    At any point in history, people will browse Wikipedia and look at club honours. They will see that United have honours in '23 & '24 (potentially '25) yet Arsenal don't have any. Of course Arsenal have a much better team than United, but the history books don't tell you about a 'title push' and...

  13. Bruno Fernandes Out? | Staying at Man United

    Absolutely no chance....!! :lol:

  14. Bruno Fernandes Out? | Staying at Man United

    I remember a lot of people taking the piss because Liverpool had lost their best player. But £135M reinvested in Van Dijk, Fabinho & Alisson plus a couple of others, was a watershed moment that propelled them forwards.

  15. Vanja Milinković-Savić

    From the YouTube footage that I have seen of him, he often makes the same basic error that Onana does, makes a save and pushes the ball back towards the penalty spot..?!? It's schoolboy stuff..!!
