United thread 2017/18

[Blue_Rossy]

think its case of being guilty of just being dopey bastards in general :)

 

[TheBlueDune]

"Centre-back Phil Jones has been charged with directing abusive language towards the doping control officer, in addition to being accused of a "lack of co-operation and respect", according to a statement from UEFA.
As a result, Jones has been handed a two-match European ban and fined £4,500, while Dutch defender Daley Blind has been charged with violation and non-compliance of the procedure, and has also been hit with a £4,500 fine.
According to a number of reports, Blind was reluctant to take the test as requested as he wanted to celebrate with his teammates following their 2-0 victory over Ajax, which secured a return to the Champions League.
Man United have three days to appeal the decision from UEFA"

Abusing a doping officer is pretty odd behaviour.

Perhaps he thought he was taking the piss.

 

[dickie davies]

with a nick nack paddy whack give the dog a bone
Why don't the testers fuck off home

 

[roj]

Perhaps he thought he was taking the piss.

..but he just had something stuck in his teeth

 

[yeah whatever !!]

The last time Phil Jones took a doping test the control tester officer said well done Mr Jones you passed,-- You're a dope.

United charged with breaching UEFA's anti-doping regulations for a 'lack of co-operation and lack of respect'.

United fined €10,000.
Phil Jones banned for 2 games and charged €5,000.
Daley Blind fined €5,000.

Is this all over SSN on continuous loop for next 48 hours?

 

[babyape]

Reluctant to take a test eh... it's not like they have history of this sort of..... oh, wait....

There is no suggestion that either player was guilty of doping.

They're just dopes!

For a 40 M+ signing a 3 year deal seems very odd

reportedly 40m, and we all know that means 50m. And they gave us grief over the Mendy and Walker fees, fuck me....

Yep 3 years was just thinking that myself very strange.

 

[MCFC1993]

Signed Matic for £40.0m potentially rising to £45.0m.

What was that Mourinho was saying about overpaying for average players...

 

[oldius]

Apparently he can play in a number of roles and gives United big flexibility according to Darren Gough!

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

40m for 3 years...ludicrous

 

[meeesh]

Wow

 

[Vienna_70]

A mate at work, who is a Chelsea fan, said Matić was finished last season.

Sounds just right for PEG.

 

[waspish]

Matic is a good squad player and the fee 40m in todays market is about right! I think Borinho was worried if Bogbrush got injured he will lose someone to head the ball on.

Well to be fair he can play holding midfield and sub. Mourinho famously had him play sub, holding midfield and then sub again all in one hour!!

Left defensive midfield, central defensive midfield and right defensive midfield?
