Revisionism at it’s finest. Our football was dire that season and Di Maria was forced into a lot of defensive duty which just isn’t his game you don’t buy him for that. He didn’t fit LVG at all it was a club signing. He probably would have been very good for Mourinho.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

You're being paid 300k p/w fecking move and tell United you want more security if you're really that afraid! Both my neighbours have been burgled and I chased away the b@stard that tried to burgle me! So its not the complete end of the world! haven't seen the pr!ck since either!
Nah, he's right. Some of our English players, like Smalling, get a lot of pass from many while our most talented non-english players like Martial and Pogba are expected to be Gods in every game or they get endless abuse. There is a clear bias from some based on nationality. It's not just posters/ fans though, there is one or two big name pundits that do this too.
Di Maria isn't Dybala. So how is any of this relevant?
It's fecking bollocks and devilish knows it. He spends most of his time here talking shit about british players. He has a very clear, evident bias.
and your post is also bollocks, Smalling is one of the most hated players on this site. As are Lingard, and Jones. Shaw and Rashford also get plenty of unwarranted abuse.
this is turning into a British sitcom.. some "media outlets" are suggesting the deal could be back on with Dybala now wanting less dosh
Smalling most certainly does not get a pass from me... he's more likely to complete a decent pass himself which I think happened back in 2012
Some people aren’t capable of the distinction unfortunately. They’d rather see us be average than sign players like Dybala because they won’t “die for the shirt.” Football has changed. We can only afford to adopt that attitude when we are dominant, not right now.
Not everyone is as tough as you
He didn't want to come here in the first place, got burgled, dropped from first team, even though he was one of our best players. Are you surprised he wanted to get the feck outta here especially when PSG's offer was on the table? I am not.I know there are fans applauding the club pulling out of the dybala if his heart is not for United but surely having dybala here instead of lukaku even if it is just for one season is a better scenario, lukaku is basically our 3rd or 4th choice striker at this point with how he has conducted himself and if he gets little playing time how much of his value will drop come the next window? Dybala on the other hand would actually solve a problem position in our team on the right wing and will be regarded as a first 11 player, if he wants to move on next season it will be far easier getting buyers at a good price for a player of his ability and could even go up a considerable amount if he has even a ok season in the premier league considering how much the likes of zaha and richarlison are priced at without having outstanding seasons.
He has already said he doesn't want to do it right now. He said when he was at United his priorities were : 1.United, 2.Kids,3.Wife. And right now he wants to prioritise the latter two as he gave United so much focus and time for so long and that he returns to United he wants to be in a position where he can prioritise United again.
That's because it takes him 7 years to do his slow turn and get it onto his 'good' foot.
Having Dybala here would be a better asset for sure, I also can't see him being as mentally fragile as Di Maria and completely falling apart after one season.
You live in Liverpool?
What’s up with Evra’s instagram? Dybala likes his post, a fan commented that Dybala likes his post and Evra replies the fan knows nothing.
Calm down. I said that players like Smalling (and even Young; by the pundits) get defended by many, not by all, while relentlessly tearing in to our talented players. There is some sort of strange complex of inferiority coming from some that British players are hated because they are British. At the same time you read endless nonsense that we shouldn't go for Dybala because he is the same nationality as some other player that didn't work out here.
I'm not British nor Argetinian, nor do i think a player of my nationality has ever played for United. I do want to say that the way some people have used Dybalas nationality against him is disgusting; as is some peoples complex of inferiority when it comes to defending British players.
The fan was trying to be funny and pointing out the irony of Dybala liking Evras post which was a picture of him in his United kit with all the trophies he had won and then a huge speech about how playing for United is about more than money and so on.What’s up with Evra’s instagram? Dybala likes his post, a fan commented that Dybala likes his post and Evra replies the fan knows nothing.
Like Evra pointed out we have no idea what the truth is and what is going on behind the scenes.
This one is dead, we got our pants pulled down, lets move on
Foreign bias is an unfortunate reality . You only have to see the way our top goalscorer and our main assist man was treated at the end of this season. The same people applauded that waste of space (young)
Yeah everybody loves and rates Young on here. Christ on a bike.
Do I? I think that the best playmaker (Scholes) and the best CB (Rio) of last generation were English. So how can I be biased?
You only have to read what was written in here about Dybala's nationality. As if every person from Argentina is a mercenary cnut
Its natural for people not to rate Young cause he is shit. Pogba on the other hand is WC. He is also our main assist man ang goalscorer. Why do they hate him?
No, you have to connect the dots. He burgled his neighbours then pretended to be have foiled an attempted burglary on himself by some mysterious stranger that's not been seen since. He's a criminal genius.
people take issue with Pogba because we know how good he is and can be, and at times he seems to just cruise through games and seemingly not put in the effort required. it's got nothing to do with the fact he's french ffs. what kind of joke is that.
Oh. Criminal genius...
So he is a fan of Pep?
I just want the next 24 hours to fly by.
He is our top scorer and main assist man and yet he was the one getting booed. If we expect Pogba to drag this pile of crap to success then he won't. Pogba is no miracle worker
He fits the profile.
And the most wanted signing for this summer (me included) was Sancho (English). But no, there is anti British bias and Argetinians are not working.
I wanted Sancho as well as we need a top RW.
Seriously anyone not believing the anti foreign bias should have a look at this thread. Dybala was demonised by many because of his nationality
Yes playing David De Gea in goal was a real tactical masterclass.
Well I don't know where you live but that's true of most people I know, and none of them seem to regard it as some kind of life-changing event.
You are just salty because your lot could never attract a keeper of De Gea's class.Yes playing David De Gea in goal was a real tactical masterclass.
Also including a pre season friendlyYes playing David De Gea in goal was a real tactical masterclass.
Lloris is alright, but not at De Gea's level that's for sure. Not really salty at all just thought it was funny to say Poch was taken to a "tactical woodshed" - Which is also hilarious to picture.
Did you not realize that Solskjaer instructed our defenders to part like the red sea so that Dave could deny you over and over thereby crushing Poch's soul?
Oh I agree and I think we should sign a replacement for Lukaku as Rashford is too young to hold the burden by himself.
But Mason has scored a number of good goals in pre-season and it wouldn't be out of reach for him to score a few in the FA cup etc when required.
Rashford scored 8 in his breakthrough season and if we don't sign a replacement for Lukaku I can see Mason having more cameo appearances the Rashford did 4 years ago.
But I agree that we shouldn't really be relying on him at all at this stage though
No chance of him joining any premier league club for me.…. we all know that he will be swapped for Icardi with Inter.
When having to choose between an unmotivated, here-for-the money Dybala and Lingard I choose Dybala without doubts.
This is off topic and i know i'm breaking the rules so to speak, but i want to replay to this.
I agree that with Pogba it most likely has nothing to do with his nationality or his race, but i think there is something else. I think some people can not stand the fact that he left and became a great player. We got him back, and since then he is judged by impossible standars by some. Even in his most productive season ever (and fresh from a WC win), it is not enough. How many people want him gone even though they know how important he is to the first 11, it defies logic.
I fear that last seasons failure has done a number on some of our fans. Wanting your best players out and not wishing to have some other great players based on nationality, not good
