  1. The "Zlatan hinders our gameplay" brigade

    Yeah, except every single thing I've read from every player, coach, etc. says the exact opposite. He's like a player/coach and an excellent influence in the dressing room. But I guess you would know better. With such a heavy list of games to play this season this can only be a good thing...
  2. The Glazers.

    You contradict yourself here a bit. It either matters (never said it wasn't a good thing) or it doesn't (in the grand scheme of things). And if it's "weird" I felt good about seeing our name on top of that list so be it, I can assure you I'm not alone. This whole back and forth has grown...
  3. The Glazers.

    Well it would be hard to argue it isn't a good thing to be the most valuable club in the world. Was it not a sense of pride you felt when that list came out last week and showed us above Madrid, Barca, Bayern, etc.? It was for me, for a short time anyway. Bottom line is performance on the pitch...
  4. Farewell Zlatan! | Zlatan: "I came. I said. I conquered."

    A win/win situation for all parties in my opinion. Zlatan can stay on and recuperate and train at Carrington and the clubhouse will gain having him there by all accounts. In the meantime if any ther club comes calling he can move on. If not, and he regains fitness most of us believe he will, he...
  5. The Glazers.

    There's no need for that. I'm rather confident either "side" is a fan who wants nothing but good things for United. That's why we're here in the first place. I personally couldn't care less about getting into the weeds of the financials, as if any of us really knows what goes on behind those...
  6. Zlatan's Injury Thread

    Like all the transfer nonsense, I'm taking the "unlikely" and "sources close to" with a grain of salt. It could very well be the direction it's all heading, but until I see something official on any of this news I'll take it as it is. Rumors.
  7. The Glazers.

    And I don't disagree with that either. I'd say hiring Moyes (SAF's handpicked successor) had something to do with our last 4 seasons as well though.
  8. Are we actually that far away?

    And two or three of theirs could be suiting up for us as well. James, Morata, maybe even Pepe? RM is so deep, those players would arguably be in the starting 11 in most other sides in the world.
  9. Manchester United - Real Madrid (Super Cup)

    Of course our lineup will be at least somewhat refreshed from that. James could very well be there. How about Pepe at CB? Now that could be interesting.
  10. The Glazers.

    And I'm not disputing your numbers. Honestly, the minutiae is not all that interesting to me. It was just a general observation on the constant back and forth as I see it as a fellow poster. All I know is the club is currently valued as the highest in the world, about triple it's worth since...
  11. Manchester United - Real Madrid (Super Cup)

    That 8,000 allocation will be snatched up by season ticket holders on a priority basis. I highly doubt you'll be able to get one through Utd membership only.
  12. The Glazers.

    Not really my fight here, but perhaps he's just tired of going round and round on the same points? Same stats/figures have been posted numerous times. I don't think anyone is budging from their entrenched positions.
  13. Zlatan's Injury Thread

    The Express "reported" this very late last night quoting "sources close to United say....". The United Stand guy on Twitter jumped on it. I have seen no other reports collaborating this at all. Not yet anyway.
  14. Zlatan's Injury Thread

    I saw one post on twitter claiming Express said he wasn't getting offered a contract. No idea how they come up with that info at almost midnight Friday. I think I'll wait for slightly stronger sources, like the club itself. So much shite on the net and twitter now it's ridiculous.
  15. Zlatan's Injury Thread

    Maybe not. And if so then I doubt any big club will take that chance on him and he'll have to wait on the MLS. But they won't pay him that kind of money either, even if he never got injured.
