The old Man Utd Thread

[Gabzy]

We really need Sancho to come and take that position off James. He needs to develop more.

[feltmonkey]

The problem with James is that he's limited. In situations where we are ahead, and he is defending and breaking he's very useful. If we're chasing a game he gives us nothing. He lacks that bit of invention and magic to unlock a defence. 

 

That's why I'd bring on Greenwood. He gets goals out of nothing against blanket defences.

Shaw saved Maguire there.

Ole's reading my posts. Expect to see Ighalo and Keane warming up soon.

...why does it look like bruno in the 10, it should be pogba

[feltmonkey]

What a save that is 

[feltmonkey]

Here you go. They've cleverly put a Matic mask on Keane. Good thinking. 

[5R7]

...and....playing at CB...ok...

[feltmonkey]

Fucking brilliant from Pogba. 

[feltmonkey]

Yes get in there! 

[Stevie]

Ok, a few minutes to go. It’s Fergie time. Come on United!!

[Mr Do 71]

GET IN! 

[5R7]

The moment Pogba got down there, you knew he was gonna take him on!

[feltmonkey]

I surprised myself with how much I celebrated that goal. 

 

I've missed that feeling. 

[Gabzy]

How good is Bruno on pens as well?

[feltmonkey]

Another pelanty! 

[5R7]

chrsit spurs are a  right bunch of diving cunts at the mo!

[feltmonkey]

Correct decision to be honest. 

[5R7]

it was odd, it didn't even look like anybody was trying to say it was a pen at the time...apart from the ref...

[feltmonkey]

Yeah, exactly my thoughts. 

 

Really unlucky there, Greenwood. 

[feltmonkey]

Feels like a good result after everything that happened, but we should have won that. 

[5R7]

its fair to say the mid needs to be Pogba, Bruno, and Matic! we really need a long term replacement for him, i mean, maybe Garner, but i think hes a good 2-3 years away.

 

Front 3, should be Rashford L, Greenwood R and well...at this point probly Igahlo in the mid!?

 

12 unbeaten though, that aint bad, and was probably the hardest game left first!

[JPL]

Martial needs to go. Pogba needs to stay.

[Gabzy]

Much better 2nd half so that's encouraging. Shame we started so damn slowly. Bruno and Pogba have to start next match, no question. 

[Gabzy]

Just now, JPL said:

Pogba needs to stay.

Quoting this for posterity

[MikeBeaver]

That was good, would have loved the win, but taking a 12th without losing is still a result, with any luck Chelsea will drop the ball tomorrow

[feltmonkey]

He changed the game completely. If he stays, and he's focused and fit, we'll have a formidable midfield. 

 

[5R7]

i have just seen the Keane rant...OMG ...that was amazing!

[feltmonkey]

That misses out the best bit. Right at the start he says, "I'm sick of this goalkeeper!" Then he says he hopes someone has punched him in the dressing room.
