  1. "Correct" post-Fergie transfers that turned out to be poor

    I thought Mata would go on to be amazing. His stint at Utd can only be described as "Meh!"
  2. Erik ten Hag vs Sancho

    Manager is asked a question about a player. Manager answers with a straight bat about the player needing to do better in training. Player posts a cryptic message which may or may not be directed at the manager's comments. Nothing has been said since by the club or the player. The outrage...
  3. Erik ten Hag vs Sancho

    Sancho to Nottingham Forrest on loan... Any day now...
  4. Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

    I don't get this place sometimes. So many posts deriding Mount when the thread is for Hoijberg, whose signing has nothing to do with Mount and his position. We had no cover for Bruno - in Mount we signed a cover for Bruno, who can ALSO do a job everywhere else in the midfield. He's just come...
  5. Mason Greenwood | Please be respectful and stay on topic

    This is a mess. ManUtd the club can't come out of this with any credit - no matter what they do, simply because the number of fans they have are too many, to make everyone happy. I personally think Utd did the right thing by eventually excluding him from the club's path forward (how they did it...
  6. Maguire | he stays!

    I've moved to a much smaller organization without any increase in compensation because it was a role I'd wanted to do. I've also been in a situation where I was in a shitty role but the money was excellent, so I hung around in spite of being frustrated. I guess it's a question of what you value...
  7. Maguire | he stays!

    It's a few million dollars. Guaranteed (contracted as long as Maguire turns up for training, stays professional, and makes himself available for selection)... No matter how wealthy you are, it's still a feck-load of money. Nobody here is unbiased... and everyone probably falls somewhere on the...
  8. Your Most Hated/Disliked PL Manager.

    Never really been a fan of Southgate. Ditto Brendan Rodgers.
  9. Mason Mount | 2023/24 Performances

    Of course not immediately but once Mount understands Ten Hag's expectations and gels with the team, he will challenge Bruno on the team sheet. He'll lose the ball a lot less than Bruno, which is important in games against better opposition where chances are at a premium. Bruno pushed out wide...
  10. Mason Mount | 2023/24 Performances

    I'm a fan of Mason Mount. I'm predicting him to be a revelation this season as long as he stays fit. I won't be surprised if he starts over Bruno in important games.
  11. Rasmus Højlund | Signed for United

    Every signing is a risk, though. Just recently, everyone was excited about Sancho... It's been lukewarm. Maguire's quality was not in doubt but he was good all of two seasons... Pogba, Lukaku... I don't think many were concerned about them... We know how that went. The prices are what they are...
  12. Rank Fergies squad players.

    I'll always have a soft spot for O'Shea. One of my favourite players. O'Shea was a crucial cog of our title-winning teams, and much better than people gave him credit for. You DO NOT make 400 appearances over a decade of playing for Alex Ferguson without having quality.
  13. Maledicted Mason Mount Much Maligned Manchester Midfielder (Back in training)

    It's a fantastic signing. And before the start of preseason. Now get the GK situation sorted quickly and we can start the preseason on the right foot. I've a feeling striker's gonna happen at the end of the window anyway.
  14. Mason Mount | Confirmed

    I like Mount, so I hope we get this done. Mount can cover for Bruno and Eriksen, and be a starter where we need more energy in the midfield. In a pinch he can tackle and defend too. More importantly, I think he's one of those people who'll always give you a 6-7/10 performance... That consistency...
  15. Club Sale | It’s done!

    I sold my shares in the recent "Qatar is exclusive" fuelled rally. I'm convinced there's a twist (or three) in the tale yet and the price will fall again.
