  1. Erik ten Hag vs Sancho

    Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I've heard about the #7 request. The reports that year was that Cavani didn't want to give it to Sancho, but did give it back to Ronaldo. (Source quoting The Athletic)
  2. Erik ten Hag vs Sancho

    When De Gea lost his spot to Henderson, he cut his summer vacation short and returned to the club to train early. There are different ways to approach time off in football.
  3. Mason Greenwood | Please be respectful and stay on topic

    Regardless of the EPL forming a body for such matters, I do think that United needs to bring in a consultancy firm to develop a new strategy for handling issues like this (or tbh, a new strategy of how to run the club)... In this situation alone, the following issues must be considered...
  4. Erik ten Hag vs Sancho

    Regardless of our club stature, I'm pretty sure no one expected us to win anything at all last year considering what we witnessed under Rangnick. Hence, I firmly believe that ten Hag has done a far better job than any of our recent managers. He also got control of the dressing room, which I was...
  5. Erik ten Hag vs Sancho

    The squad that ten Hag inherited was one in disarray following a disastrous season, a team with no heart. ten Hag got most of the team pulling in the same direction, and that is an achievement. Also, the team we beat to the Carabao cup is Newcastle, a team that finished 4th in the league, not...
  6. Erik ten Hag vs Sancho

    This is the only thing I empathize with in Ronaldo's case, but he was given the whole preseason off by the club. Club infrastructure sounds like a Glazer problem, not a ten Hag problem. That "questionable training" got us from being beaten by Brentford and Brighton to winning the Carabao Cup...
  7. David de Gea has left Manchester United

    True. I don't know if Bayindir is good enough, so I'm hoping Heaton is healthy if/when Onana leaves for AFCON duty.
  8. David de Gea has left Manchester United

    Tbh, I feel that not many people/players will go from £375k pw to at most £100k pw without putting up a fight. Yes, he's not earning money right now, but if he assumes he can still earn big money, 2 months of no pay to get the contract he thinks he deserves is really just a small price to pay...
  9. David de Gea has left Manchester United

    I hope De Gea gets this move. And he gets to stay with his wife and young daughter.
  10. Maguire | he stays!

    Perhaps I wasn't clear in my original post, but it was made in response to how experts on TV went after Maguire for the slightest mistake, and I said that to highlight that fact that the media will always talk about United in some ways to get audience engagement. I wouldn't care if he scored...
  11. Maguire | he stays!

    I agree that the abuse that Maguire (and other Man Utd players) suffered is uncalled for, and I agree that people should be fair in their critique. But that's not what I see on social media, and also not on TV, because what matters most to them is to get things viral and trending to draw in...
  12. Maguire | he stays!

    Only that the media will always find something to say about United because it drives their engagement.
  13. Maguire | he stays!

    It's unfortunate that there are so many abusive tweets/posts directed at him, and that's uncalled for. However, the media is always going to talk about United players, fairly or unfairly. Being a United player put him in their crosshairs, and being the captain meant that he was always going to...
  14. Sofyan Amrabat | signs for United on loan

    But... are things happening?
  15. Dean Henderson | Sold to Palace

    The thing that annoyed me in the interview was him saying that "he was promised to be the #1, then he got COVID, and when he came back, he should've still been the #1, but no one followed through". It sounded to me that there was a level of entitlement to the starting spot. At that time, De Gea...
