  1. Who is Captain if Bruno actually goes?

    I'd go with Dalot or de Ligt. Giving it to Mount is setting him up for failure. As for those saying de Ligt hasn't been here long enough, that's fair but he's only played 5 less games than Mount for us.

    Threadmarks: Man Utd 2:0 Aston Villa

    Yet there’s people on here who argue that those who don’t see his contribution to attack are unable to understand the nuance and subtlety to his game…

    Threadmarks: Tottenham 1:0 Man Utd

    Knew we’d be toothless with him in the front 3, which was essentially a one man attack, with Amad being the only one capable of posing any threat to their defence.

  4. Why no High level Indian players?

    Yeah I went to school in Prestwich then in Essex and whites vs blacks was like El Classico at lunch.

  5. Patrick Dorgu | 2024/25 Performances

    Exactly what I was thinking.

  6. Mason Mount | 2024/25 Performances

    I didn't think quoting multiple posters on here would be an issue as I assumed most people on here can read. My bad. I quoted you as you both cited the CL win as a reason why Mount can play in attack. I thought this was obvious but I didn't realise you had the comprehension of a toddler. Next...

  7. Mason Mount | 2024/25 Performances

    Can you read? If so, surely you can see that I was replying to you and another poster? And if you have even basic comprehension you'll see that I was listing the reasons why I don't think he's a credible option in the attack.

  8. Mason Mount | 2024/25 Performances

    I didn’t say he was poor so please don’t put words in my mouth for cheap digs. I said he’s not suited to playing in attack. This is a the same Mason Mount whose attacking contribution has been widely questioned for most of his career but now you want to pretend that he was some elite attacker...

  9. Mason Mount | 2024/25 Performances

    I knew people would cite the CL. Djimi Traore must have been top quality too then. Winning a cup competition doesn’t mean Mount was a viable candidate for a spot in the attack in a top team. Chelsea were distinctly average in the league that season but Tuchel created a solid but reactive set...

  10. Mason Mount | 2024/25 Performances

    Even in his peak he was never the player described in this post. No credible team would have started Mount in the front three as he's simply not productive enough and he has no 1v1 ability to beat a fullback. A significant number of his goals and assists came from penalties and set plays which...

  11. Who should be the right 10?

    Ideally players that are suited to the role they're being asked to play

  12. Who should be the right 10?

    I don't know, I just think he would make us even more blunt. He was good in that CL run but that was a long time ago and he's physically deteriorated since then. Maybe he just needs to get some match sharpness back but I'd argue that him getting any significant time in the attack will see us...

  13. Who should be the right 10?

    Do people really think Mount can contribute as part of the front 3? IMO a player with no pace or dynamism will only compound our inability to score goals. You could say the same about Bruno but at least he compensates with high levels of end product.

  14. Ederson - Atalanta Midfielder | no recent links to United

    Mainoo did that really well in his first few months last season but for some reason he’s been pushed further up the pitch.

  15. Most unexpected meteoric rises to the top levels in football?

    Antony at Real Betis.
