United Thread - 2021/22

I just have a feeling that Zidane is going to rock up at OT before the end of the season.

They’d be better off with Paul Daniels & Debbie McGhee.

Only saw the highlights of their Aston Villa game. Greenwood, Fernandes and Ronaldo look allergic to each other. They don't lack entertainment value.

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

In actuality they have a poor squad, City, Arsenal, then Liverpool and Chelsea are the top 4 now with the Arsenal slightly behind the powder blues.

Fuck me, well done against spurs, but one swallow does not a summer make as they say - especially as it's nearly October.

Rag Cafe is a state tonight. They're only one point of top ffs!

Nearly October,

love the change in colours from Reds to Green & Gold.

Rashford is nowhere near good enough to play for a team going for the title but has been publicised as a superstar footballer. His agent and publicist will have a lot of work to do as the unknowing masses, who only really know him from the publicity around the school meals thing, won’t understand how or why he is down the bottom of the pile at United.

Spot on. He’s a poor man’s Danny Welbeck.

But can Ronaldo do the sex offender shuffle ?

I don’t know what’s funny about that.

I think the penny is now dropping for some United fans that Ronaldo was clearly a vanity signing, and doesn’t actually address the many issues in their squad. Signing players just to stop them joining City is not really part of a coherent transfer policy.

United looked better last season with cavani upfront.
it’s now becoming the Ronaldo show, every camera shot, every reaction is about Ronaldo.
I can see the players getting pissed off with it especially stars like pogbad and penandes.
They will implode by January.
I honestly think Ronaldo wanted city but crumbled under the peer pressure once the rumours got leaked. He knows he had a real shot of going out on a high at city and would of scored shit loads with our midfield and service.
Anyhow…. United have 2 seasons max to win something otherwise there star man will be nearly 40!! Hahahaha

It would be hilarious if he ended up having to play in the Europa.

It worked once for Fergie when they got Van Persie - since then they have wasted an enormous amount of money on players we were (possibly interested in) supposedly to enhance their squad. Failed miserably.

Debbie McButter?

Definitely the case with Fred and Sanchez, jury still out on Maguire. Ronaldo will score loads for them but that salary is absurd for a 36 year old player they didn’t really need. Who is it supposedly “inflating the market” again?

We know the answer to that, but the media will never publish the truth.

Never seen that before, comedy gold !!!!

 

[goalmole]

you just won one game 3-1 and you already think you have a top 4 team ? lol

He's obviously on a wind up.

Yep. When goofy missed that pen on saturday the camera panned straight to ronaldo.

With the Rags getting Ronaldo in, I can certainly see parallels with what they did with Van Persie.
Get an aging but experienced player in for a final swan song season in an attempt to drag them to a title. It worked spectacularly well for them with Van Pussie that time as he managed to stay injury free and turned games around from losing positions to get a win.
However by GPC using that strategy (including persuading Scholes to play another season) to win his last title, effectively meant that he left the squad needing a complete revamp.
So until now they just seem to spunk vast amounts o cash on high profile star signings, with little thought to team cohesion.
The Rag’s ongoing transition phase with so many false dawns, is a joy to behold. Long may it continue

Not really. They are that stupid they are buying this seasons shirt from the club shop with Ronaldo on the back and having a green and gold scarf on along with it...Dopey cunts :)
