United thread 2019/20

They were unsurprisingly weak in midfield once again. Their most used tactic is to kick the ball long to Rashford for him to chase and hopefully do something.

They truly are fucked, then.

According to teletext rags won in their latest friendly , despite being without Pogba and Lukaku .

I have seriously misjudged OGS , as he is going to save their sorry arses , despite not having a clue what he is doing .

I'd rather have Frank Spencer in charge........

I know it's only meaningless pre-season friendlies but it's still slightly frustrating to see continuing evidence of the usual ''utd way'' i.e. getting outplayed whilst playing shit football yet somehow scraping results with fluky goals, dubious decisions and last minute penalties.

The number of rags now getting giddy is unreal. Have they seen their performances against dross in pre-season? They’ve scraped games and looked bereft of any real plan. Pogba is a twat but I hope he leaves as then they will be truly fucked in midfield.

You can set your watch to these twats, they may get a few wins under their belts in late summer and the desperation for them to do well from their fans and the media will go into overdrive. When the Christmas decorations come out they will be back to their usual self loathing and penning open letters to Eddie Two Planks about how it’s not fair even though they have spent upwards of £150 million this transfer window.

On another note you have to give kudos to the rags for going to Wales to play a friendly, probably where the majority of their support is, I wonder how many Mancs turned up for that?

Really struggling to see the Rag wankfest this summer.
They were literally cheering in the office on Friday when the Maguire fee was agreed.

They've signed a very quick, yet raw youngster for a winger, a young full back with one season of premier league experience, a "very good" centre half, who reads the game very well, but can be got at with pace.

Trying to swap Lumpkaku with Dybala...an attacking mid...so there only striker would be Rashford...

Youth, pace, wing backs, Attacking mids.... makes me wonder if they've seen this before and are trying to copy...

OGS In my opinion has been told to work with Pogba and Sanchez, he is a yes man, and a "good" manager....but that's nowhere near good enough for what they hope to achieve.....

They're fucked

I'm picturing Slab Head, in the middle of this.

He puts his foot through it when under pressure just like de gae will do

Does anyone remember the rent boy saying something like, "We are the rags. We won’t be paying over the odds for anyone."

So that’s another trait he’s picked up from the pisscan: bare-faced lying.

It's the utd way!

Reports Pogba has gone AWOL and did not turn up for their pre season game at Cardiff tonight.

Does that me he was AWOL most of last season

 

[foggy1974]

Saw that fat Howson bloke was saying Pogba could be a deciding factor in Dybala joining them, presumably because they used to be teammates. Yeah, he'll be telling him to steer well clear of that sinking ship.

Just needs Vidal, Pirlo and Tevez to unlock him then.

 

[foggy1974]

My favourite article headline whilst running over (I think) the ESPN website today was ‘Lingard Key to United Success’.

I spit out my coffee.

They meant selling him.

 

[Blu1]

Wow the reports on this world class player so far. I would say Utd have a bargain.

Leader
Great defender
Goal scorer
Captain
Councillor
Calming influence
Will drag Utd back into the champions league
Will boost morale
Bring the dressing room together

Then I tune into talk sport this morning & hear “Johnny Evans is a better defender” ! Lol

This season is going to be so memorable

He’s turning his hand to local politics too?

What a human being.

They drew with AC Milan, a team that finished 5th in Seria A last season. So that’s about right, as United finished 6th in the PL last season.

I do enjoy a good midtable clash amongst hasbeens.
