United thread 2019/20

When is bale landing?

Ha ha this is the only time that if they bid for him it would be accepted, as Real want rid asap, yet every summer we hear Bale to the Scum stories, now all of a sudden they don't want him,

 

[KentBlue]

Seriously?

Yeah. According to the BBC. He'll be gone by Xmas and then, step forward...Steve Bruce.

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

When is bale landing?

Regardless, he’ll injure himself doing so.

So, instagram has gone all quiet over Maguire, Today.

Yesterday’s rumours that Maguire had agreed to sign for United in a £80mill transfer deal, spawned loads of Instagram picture’s showing Maguire in a United shirt.

Social Media really is s***!

And brings out the utter desperation in people.

 

[TheThirdDeano]

Paying an aging keeper that’s fast become outdated £350,000 a week is a “master stroke”?

Fucking hell, standards go out the window when it comes to the media sucking off united

 

[jrb]

Daily Fail going full on Untied again.

Main Football headline.

Solskjaer's best business yet: Persuading David De Gea to stay at United is a masterstroke… and with Harry Maguire set to lead the defence, fans can expect the Spaniard to return to top form

After scrolling past numerous United article’s.

This gem.

Almost perfect symmetry': Fan posts video comparing Man United youngster Mason Greenwood's winner against Inter Milan to near-identical goal by van Persie against West Brom at Old Trafford

Seriously. A job is a job. But why the f*** would any self-respecting Football Journalist work for that Rag, knowing all they are going to be asked to do is to churn out pro-United article’s, Day after Day?

 

[MillionMilesAway]

Yeah. According to the BBC. He'll be gone by Xmas and then, step forward...Steve Bruce.

No, he isn't manager. He's first team coach.

 

[Fred_Quimby]

Yeah. According to the BBC. He'll be gone by Xmas and then, step forward...Steve Bruce.

Please, please no. I can’t stop laughing. This could not possibly be true - could it?? :) :)

Its a joke isnt it. The PR is so overboard and why the BBC are paying for Simon Stone to travel with them on meaningless tours and write daily vomit inducing PR for them yet cant afford to give pensioners free TV licenses, I can only assume is his tongue is so far up their ass they have no choice but to take him as they cannot be separated.
Guess until Greenwood makes the transfer to Aberdeen, Championship side etc, he is the latest of the 400 "going to be a superstar" they produce who then go on to do nothing of note.
Imagine if it was us giving someone £350k a week, i am sure the mail would not be stating its a master stroke, but a master stroke to them is probably what the majority of sports writers do when writing about Utd

come on keep up the transfer centre " he not reached his peak yet "

 

[kaz7]

come on keep up the transfer centre " he not reached his peak yet "

He is their best player,he saves them so many points and yet they are still stuck in 6th place,it's interesting the difference in reporting we get for having a tight pay structure based largely on bonuses but still we are ruining football,funny how so called journo's are not reporting their old mate gill has removed the pay cape so they can give a goalkeeper an obscene wage,as for the alpaca,he is on the decline as fast as joe

 

[JASR]

come on keep up the transfer centre " he not reached his peak yet "

"Peak goal letting in per season"?

He's currently averaging for his entire PL career just over 1 goal per match.
36% clean sheets

18/19 was almost 1.5 goals per match.
18% clean sheets

Has he peaked, plateaued, or will that average creep up... :-)

https://www.premierleague.com/players/4330/David-de-Gea/stats

He's got some way to go before getting back to Ederson levels:
PL career 0.66 goals per match
Just under 50% clean sheets - we have such a crap defense which can be got at...

https://www.premierleague.com/players/12707/Ederson/stats

...and even more to get to Alisson's single season stats, though that'll be something to follow next season with half (-1) their matches having crowd viewable VAR.

If it is a joke then I'm definitely not laughing, because there is is something more than a little sinister going on with the media in this country. It's akin to hero-worship, especially at the BBC, and as you say, rag lackeys like Simon Stone are being paid a good wage packet to travel with that club and write ridiculously biased drivel about them.
Do they seriously believe that all football fans in the UK are morons? Gormless cretins who cannot form a valid viewpoint of their own unless 'guided' by serial masturbators like the aforementioned Mr Stone? We all have enough nous about us to see through the propaganda, surely? We can all see the liberal coating of 'Mr Sheen' being applied to the excretia that is the rags today? We can all see that the club the British media ardently follow with such overly-zealous fervour are on the wane - and have been for some considerable time?

Nobody can deny that the verminous bastards have been the beneficiaries of some extremely dubious refereeing decisions since the formation of the Premier League: Riley, Clattenburg, Howard Webb and others have ensured the club has been successful and thus accrued incredible wealth, but are we now seeing the BBC and Sky etc casting aside any pretence of neutrality in order to ensure the rags continue to dine at the top table?

Something seriously wrong here. Seriously wrong.

I think I read something about Stone joining City's pre-season tour at some point. Doing a few of the top clubs.

 

[Rammyblues]

The longer this bullshit carries on the more chance of the manager staying at his post. Hopefully past Christmas.

Too true mate. The bbc needs abolishing and has done for a long time. Arsehole of an institution that outfit.

See the rags are expanding " in their DNA " bullshit propaganda by promoting Nicky Butt to " head of first team development".

He will report to OGS helping to " create a seamless journey for young players stepping up to the next level " according to the BBC.

They look more clueless and desperate to keep their fuckwit fanbase on side with each passing day .

A smooth path to the first team for their academy products , Lukaku , Sanchez , maguire etc etc

 

[superseiyan]

How do they have all those funds for those giant contracts and 80M Maguire and 70M Bruno etc etc?

Butt's soon to be ex wife must have dropped the charges or the CPS have decided against prosecution then as even United wouldn't be crass enough to promote a guy awaiting trial for assaulting her, would they?
