@RobDawsonMENRob Dawson @RobDawsonMENYou could be right, but once the season starts he will have to deal with it anyway.
As I said yesterday, it's just a fairly pointless sell some kit, please the sponsors jolly.
Aren't all these tours now? Used to be just about getting fit, now the business side has taken over.
As long as we don't come up short for the first real game of the season I don't really care. Trouble is other teams go to fairly sensible places like Switzerland and Austria where it's cooler and they can train and play unreported games against local plumbers and carpenters.
Problem now is we have built ourselves up as a global force, so we can no longer play that sort of game. We have to make sure we get constant publicity to maintain it.

Cue wet finger in TFM's ear.
Rooney, Smalling, Rashford and I presume Rojo wouldn't be involved. He might even have the ones who came on in the last game start and the ones who started that game come on, so they are at the same amount of match minutes.dont know where to put it or if it's been posted but there is another leak of Jose's tactical board
so apparently in training he played these two teams:
Januzaj - Rooney - YoungRashford
Pereira - McNairRojo - Jones - Smalling - Axel
Lingard - Mata - MikitaryanVS.The Pie
Carrick - HerreraShaw - Blind - Bailly - Valencia
The RED team looks more likely to start against Dtmund, with better fitness and experienced players. But in the end it could be just a training session game
TT?
The lineup of BVB will not be a first team or even close to that (whats your opinion, will it be the case with United?). The style and structure of the playing and the result will have nothing to do with the reality of the later season. I expect nothing from these games, maybe some interesting hints. TT = Thomas Tuchel,our coach.
Training with a new coach is much more important than playing matches imo.
Yeah, van Gaal seemingly only had the 2 China games and Rooney's testimonial (which, according to Daniel Taylor, he was giving Rooney a lot of grief in terms of finalising it) planned as pre-season. Ridiculous!
My point was clearly stating what I thought was a stronger lineup from United's tour squad than the one I quoted, so u still don't have a point since I never said or implied anywhere about first teams for either side.
Yeah noticed that too! Exciting times, was great to see the lads smiling. The appointment of Jose already doing wonders.
So it is LVG's fault as well?
LVG organised preseason. He said so himself many times.
Give that old man a break will you? He is gone he is not relates ro the team in anyway anymore. Look forwardand move forward will you?
Give the old man a break? I was one of the few on here that didn't want us to sack him.
5 pre season games is fine.
Hope we’ll also hear Martial laugh at this number thingy.Bluemoon: "Fecking Rags controlling the weather. They're shitting it."
Can't wait to see a pic with Zlatan, Pogba(fingers crossed 
) and Bastian together... Fecking good not believe two years ago that we will be having these three in our squad I don’t think they’d be that classy. I’m sure there would be some references to flying in bad weather before etc.
its still only a pre season friendly. OK it may have a bit more spice to it but the team is not match fit yet, decent performance and no injuries will do for me.SIX EURO STARS RETURNING TO WORK AT UNITED
The six Manchester United players granted a late start for pre-season training due to their Euro 2016 involvement will report back to the Aon Training Complex on Sunday.
Marouane Fellaini, Anthony Martial, Matteo Darmian, Morgan Schneiderlin, Bastian Schweinsteiger and new signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic are to begin work before the rest of the squad return from Beijing, China, where the second game of Tour 2016, presented by Aon, will be played against Manchester City on Monday.
New signing Ibrahimovic has been set a personalised programme before linking up with the full squad on Thursday. The Reds' third tour match will follow on Saturday, against Turkish club Galatasaray in Gothenburg.
United manager Jose Mourinho told newspaper journalists: "On Sunday, even before we arrive back in Manchester, I will send two of my coaches to start working with the other players.
"The other players will start working on Sunday. Step-by-step, we are going to do the puzzle but it's easy to feel that they want it and that's very important.
"Zlatan is going to start a specific programme we have prepared before he joins our group on Thursday, so he has five days just for him.”

So the whole squad is back in training tomorrow, we’ll finally see some footage of Zlatan in a United shirt
