  1. Game weaknesses of otherwise great players

    Ramos - Cheating.
  2. Post match vs Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham kept firing away for the last 10 minutes of the match and I was pretty sure they'd eventually get an equalizer... but god damn, David De Gea is one helluva goalkeeper. Test passed for Ole!
  3. Does Mike Phelan do anything?

    I have a good feeling Phelan played a part in today's performance just by Uniting the dressing room and having influence over the players just as Ole. It definitely felt right seeing him in a dugout.
  4. Is Cardiff away the best performance post-Ferguson?

    The way the team played today reminded me a lot of games from when SAF was in charge when United would thrash lower tabled teams. Defense was pretty smooth but ofcourse, the real test would be when we face stronger teams but man the trinity of: Martial, Lingard and Rashford... what an incredibly...
  5. The S*n's agenda against the club

    I don't know which one hurts more: Staring into the Sun for 5 seconds OR reading an article from "The Sun." :cool: But anyway, yeah... I wouldn't worry too much about this tabloid to begin with as I really couldn't care less about gossip written by people who don't even play on the pitch! If...
  6. What would convince you that Ole should be made permanent manager?

    Don't forget the trademark celebration! https://images.performgroup.com/di/library/GOAL/d3/a8/ole-gunnar-solskjaer-manchester-united-1999_1ruuw9l2h583w1knldv725n9vk.jpg?t=-1037400201 But all joking aside, I agree that attractive football and winning games would be enough to convince me. The...

    Bah...
  8. Are you feeling optimistic about the rest of the season?

    I'm somewhat optimistic but more towards watching United get their groove back on the field in the next 5-6 months and not minding about the Premier League Table rankings, Trophies, Champions League etc... . It be a nice bonus of course but realistically; I think there's a more important need...
  9. Does Mike Phelan do anything?

    As much as I'd like to believe that Mike only set cones and popped balloons (Squad Mascot? haha!) I will say after doing some digging and research that Mike was actually quite an important member of the management team...

  11. Your starting XI between now and the end of the season

    .................DDG.................. Dalot - Bailly - Lindelöf - Shaw ..........Matic..................... ...................Herrera............... ..............Mata.................... .................Sanchez............ ......Rashford.............Martial Subs: Pogba...
  12. Who's next out of the door?

    It would be really ruthless to sell players in the January transfer window unless they really want to leave for more playing opportunities. But seeing that anything can happen - I hope at the very least for United to sell: Rojo and Jones. On a side note, wonder if we can swap back Rojo for...
  13. [Poll] Next permanent United manager

    Laurent Blanc would be my pick - I just have a good feeling about him because he seems to share the same values as SAF (youth, creativity, attacking football) and that he tactically focuses more on possession in the middle of the pitch. The latter point may not sound AWESOME like number of...
