Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
No excuse for Ole now. The title or he's out the door with the money spent tbh.

All united needs now is a good center mid (or Pogba to actually be the "complete midfielder").

Varane and Sancho both start this afternoon. A win is important especially as both lfc and Chelsea dropped points yesterday.

Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
Some team talk needed here. Someone needs to teach Wan Basaka and Pogba how to pass to their own teammates..

Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
Mason sparing the blushes again. Alot of work to do. Varane has looked very solid, Sancho not living up to the price tag so far at least.

Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
Pure dirt but playing really badly and getting the win is fantastic.
Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
OLE at the same shit, playing Sancho on the left and James on the right,he doesn't keep thinks simple,likes to try to be to smart a bit like Southgate,this is not a bad squad now should of kept Gardner instead of fred

Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
Fred/Pogba should never again be the midfield 2, and Fred can't do it by himself clearly.
Whatever about the arrival of Ronaldo, United will continue to play like this until the glaring hole in the centre is addressed, the whole team and performance was unbalanced because of it.
I don't know what the answer should have been yesterday, but United's best team at the moment should have Pogba on the left of the three behind the #9 and not have him trying to contribute defensively. I think Greenwood needs to play every game, but there are too many players competing for positions in that attacking 4, and I don't know what Martial was supposed to be doing yesterday but he needs to be shipped out asap.
United were blessed Wolves can't finish.

I think Martel is ok on the left, greenwood can't play every game and it's great we have options in the front 3,but midfield is a mess,not sure one signing is even enough in the midfield

Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
that sounds like nonsense to me, plenty of teenagers have played full seasons and never been "burnt out"
he has scored in every league game so far, dropping him seems to be a mental solution to whatever problems exist with team selection.

Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
sorry, do you mean Martial?
Ronaldo will, and should, only play #9
Cavani the same, so you have to wonder what is going to happen with him, especially given he will be in South America for something like six of the next eight months, and there are quarantine rules when he comes back from international duty
Martial has been stinking the place out for months now, and should be dispatched with.
The problem of no real actual back up for Bruno, and no functioning midfielder apart from McT - neither of those issues were addressed in the window.

Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
What about them?
Pogba is the back-up for Fernandes at #10, and VDB is below that in the ranking imo
Lingard won't much of a look-in either, and really should have stayed at West Ham, he was having a great time there, that's his level

Re: Manchester United Club Thread v1
I don't understand that you don't know how contracts work
If those players don't want to leave (and it seems Lingard doesn't) then there's nothing OGS can do to force them out.
Clubs can't just unilaterally decide not to honour contracts just because a player is deemed surplus to requirements.
James looks to be heading out - but who do you think would pay c15m for Jones, for example (If we take it that 4 x 15m is the 60m you want re-invested)
