Afternoon viewing while we wait :D
Interesting that, cheers. Is he any good at organising those around him or is he quiet?Quicker and stronger than Otamendi and Stones and just as comfortable on the ball.
Initially when we were linked I was pessimistic due to him making mistakes and getting suspended all the time(over aggressive) though that part of his game has been brushed up and he's calmed down.
Adding some physicality in the absence of Kompany whilst not sacrificing on quality like we do with Mangala. Sign him up
I can't believe how f***ing thick those Rags are on Red Cafe.
Have many of them have added up how much the 'Not so Special One' has spent on players and their wages since he became United's Manager? Denial!
With the Rags it's all about Pep.
They would love it, just love it, if Pep was at United, and at not at City.
Instead Pep picked City. And in their Raggie desperation the Glazers and Woodward went for Mourinho. He was never their first choice. Pep was. And every Rag knows that!
But against teams that park the bus, the full backs do that anyway. For it to create an extra - useful - man, you need to know that that extra CB can pass it better than your extra deep sitting DMF would with just two CBs. And that seems unlikely.Id say the other way. Will give us extra forward options as the full backs will become midfielders
Ie
Eddie
Nico. Stones. Laporte
Walker. Dinho. Zinchenko
Debryune silva. Sane
Sergio
Or similar
The same Newcastle fans that want a new owner. They would love to be in our position and have owners like ours. Everton fans are the same. Reminds me of Liverpool fans when they claim they would hate an owner like ours, fucking oil bastards with no human rights etc. Fucking bollocks. No football fan in this country would be complaining if they had owners at their club like City have. I love the jealousy.
Also present were DIC’s chief negotiator Amanda Staveley and chief executive Sameer Al-Ansari, who attended as guests of George Gillett, who missed the match through illness.
It was the first time Al Ansari and Hicks Snr had met since talks with the investment company broke down last month.
With other famous faces including Fabio Capello, Sven Goran Eriksson, Steve Mclaren, Football Association chief executive and Liverpool fan Brian Barwick, and Steven Gerrard's wife Alex Curran, the action in the director's box was almost as intriguing as what was happening on the pitch.
On the Kop, there were little protests to be heard against the club's American owners and the usual “Yanks Out, DIC SOS” banners were missing for the big match.
Because I love reading shit like this, love seeing how badly they’re suffering. I’ve got nothing better to do all day, so why not? There’s actually a few decent threads on there, but you still get posts like this one. Brilliant.
That's probably why those Newcastle fans were spouting their bollocks - because Amanda Staveley's proposed takeover (ironically with financial backing from the same part of the world as our owner) has seemingly fallen through, plus it was rumoured that Mansour was interested in buying Newcastle at the same time he bought City.
Liverpool fans have absolutely no room to talk as they were openly begging to be bought out by Dubai International Capital when it all went tits up under Hicks and Gillett: https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/liverpool-fc---show-directors-3489451
Some United fans on Red Cafe the other week were wanting the Saudi monarchy to buy them out - a thread that was active at the same time they had another one slagging off our owner and his alleged human rights record. Funnily enough, all the gobby fuckers on that thread were mysteriously missing from the Saudi thread!
