  1. The comprehensive Ronaldo thread

    I think that has been his problem. His sister always makes little comments and his mother- I cannot blame them for that as they are family and want the best for him. I wonder if his childhood had anything to do with how he is now. I recall his father was an alcoholic and that could not have...
  2. So what striker are we buying in January?

    Cristiano Ronaldo Jr!
  3. Brentford vs Manchester United

    I really hope he makes 5 subs at half time. Maguire should not be starting. Martinez should be DM. Put Garnacho on- at least he will run.
  4. U21s: United v Palace

    He does have a punchable face, even more so with the face pulls after scoring.
  5. What made you become a supporter of this club?

    My Mum and Great Uncle Tom Jones. He played 201 games as a fullback for United in the 1920's early 1930's. Welsh international as well.
  6. Tinkerman Ole

  7. Raiola: "I can say that it's over for Pogba at United"

    or send him on loan to a team in the national league....
  8. Raiola: "I can say that it's over for Pogba at United"

    I have been fed up of the Pogba saga for a while, even though I was happy when he came back after watching him in the reserves. He only plays for himself and needs players around him to do the dirty work so he can piss about with the ball on the edge of the area and not get caught out. I think...
  9. why was De Gea not dropped by Ole for woeful form that resulted in the club missing a UCL place - @passing-wind

    He does lose concentration when transfer rumours start or at least that is how it seems. Jose dropped him for that very reason, Ole didn't. It just seems he is not very strong of mind, could be wrong and there could be other reasons. He always has a bad kick in a game. That being said he has...
  10. What made you support United?

    My Mum. My friends were trying to get me to support Liverpool, but my mum said- oh no you don't, you support Manchester United. Your Great Uncle Tom Jones played for them. That was just before the FA cup replay in 1983 and never looked back. In fact this forum provided me with some brilliant...
  11. Manchester United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

    I also require a fresh water supply please!
  12. Odion Ighalo | 2020 Performances

    I was initially downbeat at this, but I really hope he does well. He is a fan and this has come late in his career so hopefully he will go full Henrik Larsson! One of my fav things to do in FM is buy a player late in their career who has decent stats but never really made it and give them a chance.
  13. Granit "The Hacker" Xhaka | Likes his reds

    I agree- he is a human being after all. It might seem justified to the fans but constant abuse can get someone down. They are not superhuman are not immune to what goes on around them.
  14. The Mourinho Thread: Should he stay or go? | Sacked

    Jose has been trending for 3 days on my twitter feed. Each time I got my hopes up! It was never going to be easy, the media were always going to raise the 3rd season syndrome which would always increase the pressure. I keep going from "sack him" to "ho hum" I know we cannot win all the time but...
  15. Manchester United vs Juventus

    Asleep with boredom!
