  1. Is Andy Cole the most underrated Utd player of the modern era?

    Great player for us but never world class. Fantastic movement and great running on to the ball (as was the order of the day back then) however fairly average in the air and not much better with his back to goal. That being said, he worked really hard to improve his game and his goal record...
  2. Worst kits you can remember

    I’m going back some years to remember but if I recall that was the result of Hull City running a competition for fans to design their kit. Awful, yet as someone who grew up nearby, it brings back a lot of fond memories.
  3. Why United fans should be positive - Explaining recent decisions

  4. Ander Herrera to PSG? | Gone.
