Pre-season friendly Wigan - Manchester United

[LeftyBlaster]

Varela?

 

[spenzo]

Young is infuriating at times, yes even in pre season

 

[Raoul]

Messi and Blackett coming on

 

[Raw]

Yes Varela

 

[Dinghy]

The guy who was going to save our CL-season is coming on for Wigan...

 

[Irrational.]

Van Gaal's CL campaign savior Nick Powell coming on to play for wigan

From playing against Wolfsburg to playing for Wigan.

Thought we sold blackett? Guess not.

 

[hungrywing]

Pereira's seriously impressed me whenever I've gotten a chance to see him in the first team. To the point where I figured he must be inconsistent in the reserves to not be getting more chances.

 

[sunama]

I think the fact that Mourinho has given him 90 minutes is an indication that he might be in his plans. Agreed it would be very stupid to sell him.

Or it could be an indication that he wants to make an assessment, before making his mind up.
I remember, LVG did this last year with Pereira and Januzaj. He loaned out Januzaj and kept Pereira for the reserves/bench.

 

[Shark]

Paddy loves the word ''crowded'' doesn't he?

 

[Rado_N]

Nick Powell!

 

[VP89]

He's done well so far

Not sure what he does on the pitch tbh.

 

[sunama]

Thought we sold blackett? Guess not.

Did he not go to Celtic on loaned. He was average, so he Celtic returned him back to us.

 

[JPRouve]

I'm not watching it again.. but didnt he say he didnt want too many versatile players.. maybe a couple?

If he is fine with keeping a few, Blind has to be top of that list.

He said that he wants specialists, a specialist can be versatile.

 

[JB08]

Even Stewart is still mad about the Powell sub

 

[Someone]

Our CL wild card is on for wigan.

 

[sglowrider]

I guess Mourinho doesnt rate Axel?

 

[RC89]

How is Bailly looking?

 

[saivet]

Nick Powell. Oh the bizarre memories.

 

[ivaldo]

Thought we sold blackett? Guess not.

Someone has to buy him for that to happen.

 

[Hammerfell]

Did he not go to Celtic on loaned. He was average, so he Celtic returned him back to us.

He was worse than average there.

 

[Cutch]

Juan the hatchet man mata returns

 

[Raw]

How is Bailly looking?

Not too bad, pretty decent on the ball but hasn't really had much to do anyway.

 

[ivaldo]

How is Bailly looking?

With his eyes mainly.

 

[prateik]

Mata getting his revenge for getting subbed off by Powell..

 

[togg]

Someone has to buy him for that to happen.

Brendan will buy him....!

 

[Drifter]

Good to see Blackett.

 

[sunama]

Pereira's seriously impressed me whenever I've gotten a chance to see him in the first team. To the point where I figured he must be inconsistent in the reserves to not be getting more chances.

He was one of our best players in last season's pre-season. Then when the season (proper) started - he hardly ever played.

 

[George Beast]

How is Bailly looking?

Not been tested much but he does looks quality.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Mata showing Mourinho what hes made of.

 

[Tiber]

Blind is a very useful player. Every good squad needs a Phil Neville.

 

[AltiUn]

Would much rather Tuanzebe get minutes than Blackett.

 

[Amethyst]

Even Stewart is still mad about the Powell sub

Rightly so. Van Gaal trying to be 'clever' and it backfiring.

 

[Irrational.]

Valencia RW and Young LW - the way things should be

 

[saivet]

Who's now playing in midfield?

 

[RC89]

With his eyes mainly.

Take a bow sir.

 

[Raw]

Or it could be an indication that he wants to make an assessment, before making his mind up.
I remember, LVG did this last year with Pereira and Januzaj. He loaned out Januzaj and kept Pereira for the reserves/bench.

Guess I jinxed it

 

[Rado_N]

Paddy on Blackett

 

[horsechoker]

With his eyes mainly.

 

[ivaldo]

Blind is a very useful player. Every good squad needs a Phil Neville.

He's an upgraded version of our Phil, he has some serious talent on the ball.
