United thread 2017/18

You are right. I actually think Pogba has all the potential in the world, but he'll never fulfil it under Peg

What at, dabbing ?
Sure as shit isn't football

 

[cityontheup]

I don't get all this Pogbad has potential and under PEP he would perform better?. He is bang average, does not have the discipline or football brain to play in PEGs team and does not have the discipline or work rate to play under PEP. His reputation got blown up out of all proportions when the media new the scum were interested. I bet we and Juventus couldn't stop pissing ourselves over how much they paid for him. I hope he stays their as long as possible causing trouble and embarrassment throughout the whole shit stain of a club.
And any club willing to buy him off them at anywhere near what the scum paid need locking up in a padded cell. He is a £30-40m player at best.

Balotelli Mark II

Elbows is twice the player he is, and they're embarrassed to have him.

Balotelli Mark II

Very harsh on Mario.

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

THEY ARE SHITE !!!!. Can't believe they are 2nd, but that's down to the inconsistencies of the other teams in the top 6.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

I bet that in the summer they'll spend an absolute fortune to improve their defense and midfield. In midfield they'll probably get someone that snubbed us.

Fixed for you.

We can say what we like about Bacon Face as an individual. But as a judge of a footballer, he was a good one. And he was right about Carlton

Djemba-Djemba? Kleberson? Bebe? Taibe? Veron? He made his fair share of awful signings.

i'm sure they were financially sound though

Pogba is a luxury player. Very few teams have them these days and the ones that do offer a lot more than what Pogba does. Why play him as a no.10 when Mata is better.. so hes pushing to play as some kind of free roaming left centre of a three midfielder, well if you have to change your tactics to accomadate a player then you are compromising the team and tactics.

What a lovely mess this is..

 

[Manc in London]

I think he is a good player but not the player you build around. If he played in the 8/10 position for us, he would look very good. I personally prefer Dave and KDB, but I have no doubt he would be much better than he appears at United.

Sign him for £40 million and let Pep bring him on.

As long as he is prepared to sit on the bench to cover Dave and KDB

Mata is much better there, Mikiterrier was much better there. This is the perfect thing about it. Jose hates small players who can pick a pass. He wants a team full of big brutes, which is piss funny considering Pogbas reaction to the ball coming in for the Barcodes goal. He absolutely shat himself and backed off. Jump with the player, and the goal probably wouldn't have happened...

Jose is the root of all their problems. I think blues saw it straight away, rags just refuse to accept it and go along with, we're Man United, we'll be back...

 

[cucumberman]

I'm certain Pogba himself didnt realis how average he is. He was cradled by some of the world's best players in Juve and France, but when it comes to making a shift to deliver world class performance in a bang average team, the epiphany struck that he is one of then as well.

That forlorn look on the bench after being taken off is to me the money the penny has dropped. He has a choice now to be industrial in his approach or continue to try to reach his hyped level which will never ever happen.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Signing Sanchez has really screwed them. He's supposoed to be playing on the left but plays where he wants. Pogba now fucked off, plays totally out of his role (and depth), Smalling is a waste of space, Lukkaku needs a team behind him, De Gae is getting fucked off playing for this shite and will be gone in the summer, Matic is good but nly for another season left in him. They really are screwed .

 

[Deepest Blue]

I can see PSG selling Neymar and buying Pogba as a replacement. Unfortunately, where ever he goes United will get the vast majority if not all their money back

It's a great laugh seeing United lose tens of millions on deals but post-Moyes they are willing to chuck shedloads of cash around in fees and wages to keep the popularity of their festering corpse of a club intact.
Big honours are desirable but not essential just so long as the income streams continue to flourish that's objective 1 achieved.
What we now have is a club that has the mentality of Arsenal and a traditional following which is Liverpool -like in it's blockheaded delusion.

Great 'innit?

Think Ferguson was very happy that they signed Bebe ;)

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

The problem with the Rag's is that they only need a 'jammy' PiGMOL inspired cup win (like the Arse), and they will be top of the world again. That's how fickle their fanbase is.

Now, now, behave! :-D

I wouldn't bet against that happening either.
