And I'm pretty sure Greenwood is in to his missus.Pretty sure Gomes is into his final year, which is madness.
Cause it worked well offering contracts to Herrera and De Gea only in the last 18 months of the contract, right? Lindelof fully deserved a new one, considering the progress he has made. He came as a young player, but for the last 18 months he has been an undisputed first choice. He is also young and doesn't get injured so it is a relatively risk free contract extension.His current contract was valid until 2021, with plus one year option. This club is weird
With your username your believe is rather dodgyStrange first replies in here! This is great news, despite what many think I believe the club are heading in a really exciting direction. Lindelof has proven his quality over the last season despite what his critics say and it’s great news that he’s signed up long term. I truly believe we will look back at the Maguire and Lindelof partnership as one of our best ever.
Stam never really had a truly great partner though. He played with Berg, Johnsen, Brown and Silvestre really, I’d say Johnsen was his best, but he was prone to the odd bout of dodge.In my time watching United I've been lucky enough to see 3 top quality partnerships.
Bruce & Pallister
Vidic & Ferdinand
Jaap & Stam
We'll be lucky if Maguire & Lindelof come even close.
Wtf are you smoking? He’s the most overrated defender we’ve had since Phil Jones rocked up as Duncan Edwards reincarnatedStrange first replies in here!

Agree.Whooooooooosh.
Currently we're on joint fewest goals conceded and joint highest number of clean sheets in the league. And that's with Lindelof having some dodgy moments. Which are out of character based on form over most of last season.
Looks like we might have finally sorted out our defence and they're all here on long term contracts. Great stuff.
Well not really considering if they are our best partnership since Rio and Vidic they are likely to have been consistently good over a prolonged period of time which will in turn mean they are one of our best ever partnerships. As other posters have highlighted theres only actually been 3/4 world class CB partnerships at Utd, I think Maguire and Lindelof have the potential to be that well revered.Wise wisdom from Trust In Januzaj.
There is a bit different between "one of our best ever" and "best partnership since Rio and Vida" don't you think so?
Yeah fair enough you're free to believe what you want, the reality is we are never right 100% of the time, only time will tell if this time i'm right or wrong.With your username your believe is rather dodgy
Corrected for you.Wtf are you smoking? He’s the most overrated defender we’ve had since Chris Smalling
I disagree, from what I see Lindelof is hugely underrated by supporters and rivals. People always say "what are his world class attributes" personally I think is composure on the ball is brilliant and will only get better with more games/confidence. Additionally, for all the critique of his aerial game his defending on the deck is phenomenal as he's strong both positionally and with his awareness. Does he need to be stronger in certain situations? Of course he does but he's still a very young defender and I have no doubts he will continue to improve.Wtf are you smoking?

Surely that cannot be correct. He is signing for a football club to play football and not participate in modelling.Great news!
I’m swedish and in the swedish newspapers I think I’ve found the reason they give him a new contract so soon. There was apparantely a paragraph in the old contract saying Victor wasn’t allowed to hurt his head or take part in activities where head injurys could occur. The paragraph didn’t specify where and why this wasn’t allowed(outside of football) and this is said to be the reason why Victor hasn’t been able to win aerial balls or participate in offensive corners. But with this new contract the problem has finally been dealt with and Victor is looking forward to play his game the way he want to without restrictions.
I know jaap stam was good. But he wasn’t that good that he could be called a partnership all by himself.In my time watching United I've been lucky enough to see 3 top quality partnerships.

He has missed crucial headers and cost us points multiple times.I guess you only watch Highlights of Manutd games?
He only has to deal with 1 header a game which he misses right?

Haha I see what you are uptoHopefully get Jesse's contract sorted out next.
Mad, isn’t it? Understandably from his username, seems like it wasn’t that long he follows United.I admire the optimism, but that's mad.
Haha , joke right?Great news!

"We" as in the caf?! feared that Ole ONLY was interested in looking after the Norwegians at the club? This must be the silliest post ever.Predictable. This is what we all feared when Ole took over. He's only interested in looking after his countrymen.
Any, take your pick. The fewer moaners around here the better.Which team would you recommend?
