United thread 2017/18

[Grassland Blue]

Of course a Utd title was a possibility at the start of the season. The fact that PEG played dour defensive football and threw players under his bus is the issue. Throwing players under the bus is not good for squad morale and being defensive results in too many draws and gives the title to Pep on a plate.

As soon as we dominated and beat Chelsea in their own backyard, that was when I knew that we would win the league.

It was 'on' when the season started, as Utd don't have to actually be better than anyone, in order to beat them, stuff just 'happens' for them (like us missing 5 chances & having two pens & a red card waved away). We just set too high a pace.

I agree.
My point is that no one ever talked the rags down. The media were always saying that they were title challengers, Pogbad was wonderful and peg always wins the title in his 2nd season!

They have been doing that since Ferguson left, & then when it doesn't happen, they say Utd have had a good season & are progressing nicely considering all the handicaps they have!

How about a cheeky £140 mil and one penny bid.
We need to get in quick or we will be at the back of a long queue.

How about a bid of £0.01 which seems far more realistic figure for the show pony.

Wouldn't give them £140.01 let alone 140m press are truly laughable.

What kind of drugs are they on thinking the Pogba flop is worth 140 mill? His value has gone down not up. In fact I would say half what the rags paid.

If Woodward is involved with the negotiations they'll probably end up with £140 and a new fax machine.

Not sure where that figure came about, but totally agree his stock has gone down. Will be funny if he starts pushing for a move this summer, even more so if the Alpaca does similar

Don't forget they're also in transition.

United play Arsenal at the end of the month. They(the ones that turn up) will be praised by the media for giving Wenger a good reception while forgetting they've been singing about him being a sex case for two decades.
