  1. Pre-season in India?

    Would love to have this game in Kolkata, my city, but the weather won't suit United.
  2. Fred | 2019/20 Performances

    We have a weak midfield and this guy makes it terrible. He is lacking basic football skills at the moment. Shocking but this is why we are here.
  3. Post match vs Newcastle United

    Very disappointing, to put it mildly. No plan, no strategy, not a single player worth mentioning. Ole is losing ground fast. This is not my Man Utd.
  4. Post match vs Rochdale

    No matter how I try to look at it, I can't find anything good about this performance. There is something fundamentally wrong here. Or maybe everything. Disappointing.
  5. Post match vs Leicester City

    Maguire, James and AWB are good additions to the team. De Gea made some crucial saves. No attacking threat from the right or center. Midfield struggled to control the game though McTominay played his heart out. Good three points in a match I thought we would lose. And I saw Fred.
  6. The Green Shoots of Recovery: Lessons Learned - Patience Imperative!

    Good post and I agree with most of the points. That said, Ole should now extract good performnaces from the players he's got and trusts. He should be ready to come up with a second plan when things go wrong. I do believe that he can do great for us. I am ready to give him more time and wait till...
  7. What exactly is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer responsible for as United manager?

    So many threads about Ole. Anyway, it is becoming clear that he does lack a second plan when things are not going well. The question is - is this because he feels he doesn't have the players? Our midfield and attack is lacking in creating chances and converting chances. Is this because of Ole...
  8. Post match vs Crystal Palace

    Should know how to score from penalties as we can't create chances otherwise. Disappointing even with this midfield. I thought we could at least get a draw after going behind.
  9. Jesse Lingard will have an excellent season | Discuss in his player performance thread

    Not good enough for a top 4 team but we are not one of them so he continues. And we don't have many alternatives.
  10. Has the Palace result finally woken us up to reality?

    Teams going through a bad patch should play us. In my mind, the reality was a 5th, 6th or 7th place so it is all still on course.
  11. Do you have a second ‘local team’?

    Football is not very popular in my country though it is picking up slightly, but the city where I live is football crazy. My local team is Mohun Bagan A.C., a very old football club in Kolkata (city formerly known as Calcutta). Nicknamed as 'The Mariners', the club was established on 15 August...
  12. Post match vs Chelsea

    Good win to start the season with. Much improved second half and the new signings did well in their first match. Need to build the momentum now in the coming games.
  13. Youth, Courage, Success

    If this is a slogan just for marketing, the outcome will be disaster. If, however, the intent is honest and target players are well evaluated, we can build a strong team within next couple of years. Some experiience is definitely needed but Youth. Courage. Success >...
