United Thread - 2021/22

[Colin Bells Boots]

Bruno Fernandes is a cock!

just watching his behaviour with the ref. Hope city are 3 up in 2 weeks bring fern on with 10 mins to go to teach him a lesson. Happily take a red now

Utd really do attract a certain type of player

You surely haven't only just come to that conclusion ?

He was touted around many clubs before the rags bit. He is capable of decent techical abilities but he has the personality of a real **** - hence the praise he attracts from the lemmings and rag lovinng media.

He has no fucking self- discipline and goes mising when things not going his way.

If he wasn't a rag, he would get red cards regularly imo.

 

[Impeccable One]

Surely a Greenwood backheel?

(Best of a crap bunch)

The bookies say its more likely a Maguire clearance ! [emoji23]

 

[DMA's]

Shame we battered the Dippers and only took a point, they've now got momentum and gone and done that to the rags.

Just know in 2 weeks time Pep will faff about and the Rags will set up properly and nick something as usual. Never see Pep doing a Mancini to the Rags.

No chance in Hell the rags defend like that in 2 weeks.

Pretty sure pep has a much better record at old Trafford than mancini did. We also lost to United fairly frequently under Mancini (including 3 last minute defeats) so I don’t know why this myth that pep doesn’t get the derby like Mancini did comes from tbh. The only time you could perhaps lay the blame at peps door was the 3 2 defeat at home where a win would have won the title. That day he rested a lot of starters but we should have been out of sight at half time poor finishing and bad referring cost us that day not pep Imo.

The way we play was perfect for united, they were most effective when they could sit deep and counter with pace but with the arrival of ronaldo they can no longer do this so I expect us to beat them fairly comfortably in a few weeks assuming ronaldo starts.

He’s not a plastic Rag, he’s an actor playing the part of a United fan online for money. Mark Goldbridge isn’t even his name.

He’s a grade A tool

To have a very good squad does not amount to have the best squad. Most of their players would look very good under Pep: Varane, Maguire, Shaw, Pogba, Fernandes, Greenwood, Rashford, Sancho, and so on. Maybe even Fred, van de Beek, Martial...It's not the quality of the squad that is their biggest problem. At this level managing is crucial: the better players you have, the more difficult it is to manage them.

Sorry, you’ve lost all credibility. Maguire is not good enough to play the donkey in a nativity play !

At least they’d seen all the goals by then.

 

[bondsman]

When you watch Maguire and Shaw defending for the goals yesterday you have to assume they are playing to get him sacked

Or for a part in the oldham pantomine

Obviously Rags are still in TRANSITION haha

Naughty

I'd trust Pep's opinion over yours. We wanted Maguire, but not at the price Leicester were willing to sell.

 

[Dirty Harry]

Not seen or heard any pundit mention Maguire yet.

The man is fucking rubbish. Put him on the penalty spot heading long balls away and he's fine. Also gets the odd goal.
But ask him to play football, defend on the deck, make quick decisions or just get his positioning right and his flaws are there for all too see.
Re-watch yesterdays goals (a chore i know..) and check out his involvement. Running toward his own goal and a good 2 yards off the scorer. Schoolboy stuff.

Seriously, if he was at almost any other club other than the rags, he'd be red carded most weeks and or giving away penalties galore, watch him defending corners, I keep thinking I'm watching 'World of Sport' and 'Big Daddy' or 'Giant Haystacks' are suddenly going to come on.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Steve Bruce is available and I feel they should go for him.

Granted he is getting on a bit now in years but he can't be any worse than Harry McGuire.....

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

Correct. Brad De Cessari, I think. From Nottingham, possibly?

First name Brent. He says he used an alias because he was a policeman in fraud when first starting out and couldn't use his real name. Also says his mum and grandfather were rags and there is a pic of him as a kid wearing a rag top but he also says he used to get taken regularly to Forest as a kid. Personally it all sounds plausible to me. I doubt he'd been much to the swamp before his youtube stuff, and maybe not even now as I think he's seen as the definitive armchair supporter by rags who go to games, but that's his audience, overseas, so fair do's to him for making money.

I don't think much of his analysis, mind, he'd be a good choice for Ole's replacement it's that bad.

Wan Bissaka was just as bad too. He is terrible

 

[babyape]

He’s absolutely shit. Yet City were prepared to pay £65m for him and United paid £78m for him, just shows how clueless people at football clubs are.

Mate is a Leicester season ticket holder. Always said he's average at best, just a big lad. Still to this day he laughs at the money they got for him. Replaced him with better for peanuts, and built a state of the art training facility with the money. And United are left with Maguire.

Thanks. Wasn't 100% on the name anyway.

Given their squad, they ought to be doing better than they are. But how many of their squad would I take at lickle ol' Citeh? Precious few. Greenwood, possibly.

 

[Blootoof]

That's harsh on the Face .... Didn't he actually win something? ;-)

Yeah

Still bringing up Mancini after all Pep has won and achieved for us? Give it a rest.
