The old Man Utd Thread

[5R7]

imagine if we could actually defend like burnley!

 

is ashley young fucking dense! crossing hasnt worked at all all game...and he still keeps crossing

[feltmonkey]

I reckon Ole should bring himself on. 

[5R7]

is...is it on...

[feltmonkey]

2-2!

[teddymeow]

Phew!!

[feltmonkey]

We weren't great, but Heaton had a fine game. Odd how Burnley's improvement coincided with him replacing Hart as first-choice.

Was out at the Huddersfield match, so what happened fellas? From what I saw on the BBC app we weren’t so good.

[spork]

We weren't great but Heaton played like De Gea against Spurs which didn't help!

How shit were Everton, out of interest?

Looks like Fellaini is off to China for 10 million. While we can't be too sad to see him go he did always put in a shift and scored some quite important goals with that big head of hair (RIP). 

 

Ro Shaun Williams has also left for Shrewsbury. 20 years old and with 6 months left on his contract he obviously didn't feel he was going to get much game time here with our plethora of not very good centre backs. Bit of a shame as he would always come good in FM .

can we not get them to take jones and smalling while theyve got the checkbook out? if not, where's sunderland when you need them?

I'm looking at reading Sir Alex's autobiography, and I figured this is likely the best place to ask - am I best served sticking with his newer one, or is there a lot of stuff in the first that doesn't get covered again making it worthwhile reading both?

 

Might as well ask this as well, are there any other United autobiographies worth reading? As a Liverpool fan, I've read plenty of shit ones that would only ever appeal to Liverpool fans, yet I imagine Carragher's and Hamann's would appeal to a wider audience - no doubt you lot have a few as well.

 

Cheers!

Martial signs a new contract until June 2024. What a waste of money, said The Mirror. 

[teddymeow]

Scott McTominay has signed a new deal that runs until 2023. 

[ckny]

Yay?

[DC Lemon]

Announcing a new contract for Martial on the day Fellaini says goodbye feels like the true end to an incredibly horrible era. Fellaini himself doesn’t deserve any hate for being the player he is, the managers who relied on him to salvage something out of their shitshows do.

I'd recommend this one.

Oh Marcus.

[Mr Do 71]

Rashford! 

[5R7]

started alrite, but then a bit quiet in that half

[Marzipan Travolta]

Need to get Sanchez off. He's reducing our mobility and creating nothing.

Was just about to post similar.

 

He's a liability.

[Mr Do 71]

FFS. That was not great.

[teddymeow]

Sanchez just has no urgency. 

 

Lukaku just seemed to complain when he came on too.

 

I was slightly worried when Jones came on at the end. Had visions of him giving away a penalty. 

[Guest]

Not great but still better than what Liverpool could manage. 

[Liamness]

[Nicky]

did you guys all forget him in the arsenal game?

[feltmonkey]

Even when he's playing well, Sanchez is an odd player. He gives the ball away so much. He's energetic, but that mainly seems to consist of him rushing everything.

Some consistency would be lovely in somebody earning £300,000+ a week.
