United thread 2018/19

[Aussie!]

Question: will Pogba ever play again for United?

It's hard to see it happening ..

 

[big phil]

Mourinho somehow outlasting Pogba would just be the cherry on top of this whole post-Ferguson era. For all the shit we give him (rightfully) the guy is still an extremely talented player and under most any other manager would be world class. Letting him go to Barca or PSG would be really stupid.

Not convinced he’s extremely talented. He certainly has the physical tools needed to be a top quality modern day box to box midfielder, but he lacks discipline and tactical awareness. And if he hasn’t grasped that by now then he probably never will.

Why would anyone want to streak their windows when perfectly good and inexpensive cleaning materials are widely available?

You're quite right, Liverpool shirts just have the edge, particularly in those hard to reach areas.

Thinking of my favourite Utd player ..

It has to be Phil Frank Spencer Jones

Bit harsh - I'm sure Michael Crawford was quite good at football ;-)

Agreed, his career is rapidly moving on, it's time he started moving about the pitch.

We’ve all been there with hundreds of rags.

‘Do you go?’

‘Nah’

‘How come?’

‘Can’t get a ticket, there’s a 10 year waiting list’

To a fucking man.

Oddly enough, a United supporting friend of mine who goes occasionally and no more (and is totally open about that - it's not his priority in life) commented to me the other day that he's getting an awful lot of emails from United at the moment offering tickets to games. His suggestion was that they had plenty of availability this year.

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

Apparently the rags have put a £200m price tag on pogshite I guess that's him staying with them then

To be fair to Woowar - if he can negotiate that, I will be very impressed indeed

The 10 year excuse (if it was ever that big) that is still being trotted out some 25 years later..............

Hate to say it but I feel a bit sorry for Pogbad, he's a kid and if my lad's boss was treating him like this I'd be round there and smack him in the trumpet

 

[BlueAnorak]

Bellamy in full on ‘don’t say anything bad about Utd’ mode.

Calling him Pogbad. Ha!

Not if you sore his bank balance you wouldn't. You'd keep your mouth shut and tell him to do the same whilst enjoying the holidays on your yacht!

The Londis in the Picadilly Plaza on Portland Street sell tickets for rag games, they've had them advertised outside the last few times I've been over.

As a Dubliner it's easier for me to get a pair of tickets together for Old Trafford ( or Anfield ) for 'big games' than it is for the Etihad.

 

[yeseye]

I think they’re making a documentary on the quiet similar to ours.
Probably be on Dave or Gold maybe or the history channel.
Pog Peg & Phil Too.

If my lad was on the thick end of £400k per week, I’d tap him for a sub and leave him to fight his own battles.

He's 25 years old...he's hardly a 14 year old paper-boy.

 

[East Level 2]

Balls!! He came through their youth team so he's a youngster/starlet/great prospect/new liver-wasting, wife-beating drunk until he rocks up at Hull, Sunderland or West Brom.

 

[Sir peace frog]

love Pogba to get subbed in the next match and as he's walking off twat morinho ,

It can't be 200 million pounds.
Maybe Turkish lira

Go on through in ticket tout, family guy and you can bluff against the flop lol

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

Are you another one of these boring purists who's satisfied with Peps fancy Dan football and 100 points.
We don't have enough dabbers for my liking.

Good point well made - Jesse Linguard would be a welco..............no no no, I can't even finish that sentence in jest :-)
