Feel sorry for VdB but when two managers aren't using him at all then the rumours about his physicality must have some substance. Rangnick doesn't play politics - he'll throw in Elanga over established players, he'll substitute Ronaldo, he'll use Martial despite him wanting to leave as long as he remains professional. His best position is where Fernandes plays and there's only one winner there.

I believe the main reason City retain our best players for very long periods (by modern-day standards) is that we treat them and their families with total respect. The players who are interviewed always go out of their way to praise the club for its family feel and community atmosphere. It has never been just about money.Also on Van de Beek. A few weeks ago a couple of journos close to United reported that United don’t think he is up to the physical demands of the premier league. This speaks volumes of how United operate. They got that out in the media as they probably knew he was going to go on loan. Simon Stone has mentioned it again on the BBC website this morning. If they don’t fancy him as a player then let him move on. Don’t crucify him in the media to save face.
We just don't do toxic briefings behind the scenes to the media. We didn't even rise to the bait when Ya Ya and his agent went off the rails. Everything is transparent and open. United have a reputation for spreading poison behind the scenes, sometimes about out-of-favour players and sometimes about their commercial rivals. It is part of the famous "United DNA."
I hope to fuck you are mearly making a comment rather than complaining.They are terribly run. Lingard will just sit there and leave for free in the summer. Pogba will go for nothing. They’ll end up letting Martial leave for peanuts. Their reserve keeper is on 120k a week. He is probably higher paid than Ederson. Then there is Phil Jones on a long contract just sitting there.
For my part I think it is brilliant, especially as you forgot Van de Beek

So why did you buy van de Beek in the first place? Do you never check anyone out, watch them a few times and discuss how he would fit into the system before buying them.......or do you simply ask the barman in the Bishop Blaize who you should buy ?Feel sorry for VdB but when two managers aren't using him at all then the rumours about his physicality must have some substance.

General consensus is he was bought because Pogba was expected to go, Ole actually wanted Grealish but the club gave him Van de Beek. It seems Rangnick has now given his blessing for Van de Beek to go on loan so can only wish him well.So why did you buy van de Beek in the first place?

It's a dream to sign for the club?
Does she mean the team...that has existed for only about 3 years.
Exactly when did she start dreaming of playing for the rag ladies team?
Load of rubbish.
Hope she enjoys getting changed in a tent in the car park at Carrington, that's how much they value their women's team at United.
Promised the previous manager they would get two new training pitches in a bid to keep her. She didn't believe them and walked.
Guess what, have since told them the money is needed for something else.

Maguire is absolutely hated in that dressing room, to the point they laugh behind his back.
The foreign lads can't believe he was given the armband ahead of some others who had served their time.

I know a young lady who has signed for United as Liverpool didnt cover basic expenses. I think outside City its a bit of a farce how serious the teams areHope she enjoys getting changed in a tent in the car park at Carrington, that's how much they value their women's team at United.

I don’t think there’s really any situation where a new signing should be given the armband.
Not surprising professional footballers feel the same.

I certainly think that's the case, but United don't even have shower facilties for the girls.
They were shamed in to bringing them over from Leigh to Carrington this season, but stuck up a gazebo tent and chucked in a couple of exercise bikes.
Pathetic.

They all felt De Gea should have been given it, but his form dropped off last season and they thought he might be off and Henderson preferred.
Maguire regularly speaks out on their behalf and the Spanish speakers just don't want him speaking for them.

Can't the rags arrange a pre season friendly in Tirana to sort sort it out properly?They all felt De Gea should have been given it, but his form dropped off last season and they thought he might be off and Henderson preferred.

Then again they could be playing there in the Sherpa van conference next season anyway.

I thought for a moment that you were referring to Toronto (as that is how locals pronounce it) and I was about to give you a piece of my mind for suggesting that the Rags set a single boot down in my home.Can't the rags arrange a pre season friendly in Tirana to sort sort it out properly?

I suppose even Canadians have a breaking point. The rags touring would make you all go American on them.I thought for a moment that you were referring to Toronto (as that is how locals pronounce it) and I was about to give you a piece of my mind for suggesting that the Rags set a single boot down in my home.
