United thread 2019/20

[Silva61]

No chance sadly I agree with you but I also dare to hope, to dream, to believe because I was there, I saw that moment and I recall it as if it was only yesterday. You may discount it, nay dismiss it and refuse to believe but Sir, I never will. Gentlemen I give you Manchester United and RELEGATION.

(I've got a semi on now, back in a bit)

I put £20 on them being relegated at 750-1, 15k if it happens, even if it doesn't there maybe a decent cash out, if it looks like there struggling for top 6 they could go into free fall, if you don't buy a ticket you don't win the raffle.

Heads will roll for this !

Cristiano Ronaldo was sold for roughly £85m, then replaced by Antonio Valencia, Gabriel Obertan and Michael Owen for roughly £20m; generational players grew old together; and not a single midfielder was purchased between July 2007 and July 2012.

The Wesley Sneijder years!

Talking to a couple of Leicester fans recently & asked them about Maguire. They said he really didn't have a great season for them last season and he's slow and easy to turn. "He's no Van Dijk" was the quote from one. £80 fucking million.

This may have been said already, but he’s basically a slightly better Richard Dunne. Brilliant if it’s all hands on deck, the opposition are lumping it forward and the game is coming to him, but hopeless if the ball’s on the ground, or if he’s required to do anything calm and creative.

The rags are that sh!t he’ll have plenty to do and will probably be made to look a lot better than he really is against most teams.

Excellent article. Was it written by a blue?

That’s a better bet than 40/1 them winning it. Lancaster bomber on the moon sort of stuff.

Just watching OGS on Sky. The more I listen the more I think they have just picked a name out a hat and given him the job. He rambles on for a few sentences without any conclusions and no relevant sense. Pauls been great Paul been good Pauls trained well. What about the 6 months or more last season when he stunk the place out and couldn't be arsed even running half the games. Sanchez is seen as a striker and will get goals etc. Be gone at Christmas regardless of any campaign on here to save him I'm afraid.

There are stories out today saying how they are "resuming the search for a dof". The day after the window shuts this comes out. If i were a utd fan i would feel like i was being treated like a fool. They would have been better off saying nothing and letting it fizzle away again.

Well they have found enough duffs.

Nobody thought that in 1973/4 either but sometimes beautiful things just happen.

They were only 3 places above the drop in the previous season. Can't see them falling that low but would love to be proved wrong. I can still feel the sense of relief getting out of the swamp when Law scored his funniest goal.

Maguire will lead them to the title.....

The rags will do what they've always done, despite their repeated denials, and that's throw money at the problem. If they triple or quadruple what Podgy is on at Spurs they'll get him. Money talks, and all that.

Yea money talks alright tho all it ever says to me is .......goodbye.
