Dear Fenerbache, please stop buying their rubbish.

Oh NVM

"It is understood that no deal has been struck between United and the Turkish club, and sources close to Van Persie insist that he wants to see out the remaining year of his contract at Old Trafford." lol.
 
I'm pretty sure it will have been seen around the footballing world last season just how shite their football was (barring the odd game.... derby at OT being one) and how bizarre a lot of the decisions by the manager were.

Maybe footballers really don't want to go there and play under that dinosaur.

Seems they replaced one poor tactician with another, just with a more fancy name.

How very dare you. He had a filoshofee as well ;-)
 
Lloris urged to give the rags a miss as they are not a big club lol

Manchester United would be a sideways move for Hugo Lloris claims former France boss Raymond Domenech
  • According to former France manager Raymond Domenech, Hugo Lloris should only leave Tottenham for a 'big' European club
  • Manchester United, he claims, no longer fall into this bracket and have few qualities to elevate themselves above Tottenham
  • United will be in the market for a new goalkeeper should current No 1 David de Gea move to Real Madrid as expected this summer
Hugo Lloris has been urged to quit Tottenham to play in the Champions League – just not for Manchester United because they're not a 'big' club.

The France goalkeeper is widely considered one of the world's finest in his position but Spurs have failed to secure Champions League football in each of his three seasons in London.

Former France manager Raymond Domenech gave Lloris his international debut against Uruguay in 2008; since then he has won over 60 caps and been made captain.

Former France boss Raymond Domenech does not believe Manchester United are big enough for Lloris

If current United stopper David de Gea leaves the club for Real Madrid, then they will need a replacement

If, as expected, United's present first-choice David de Gea joins Real Madrid, manager Louis van Gaal will need a new goalkeeper.

He has the budget to afford Lloris, who would be among his first targets, but Domenech believes the goalkeeper would be wasting his time. Unlike rivals Manchester City, Chelsea or Arsenal, the manager says United are no longer big enough.

'I have no decision to take for him, but in my opinion he has to play in Chelsea, Arsenal, or Manchester City, to play in the European Cup,' he said.

'Tottenham is a big club – it is not the biggest. Manchester United qualified for the Champions League, but I can't see really the difference with Tottenham.

'For me, it's Chelsea, Arsenal, or Manchester City. Because I think Manchester United is no more a big club, in England, for me. I think like that.

'I think Arsenal will be every time a big club, Chelsea also – City is becoming a big club – but I think United is with Tottenham, with the other clubs. Not one of the biggest clubs, so there's no difference.

'For me, he's a great goalkeeper so he needs to be in the best English club, or French, or Italian, or German.'

Agree with everything you've stated but to put their OT derby result into context we had them on the rack very early on that game, unfortunately our maestro David missed a sitter which would have, I think condemned them to another pasting but shortly after that their long ball tactics bore fruit and they ran out relieved and jubilant winners on that day. They rejoiced that day but they are still consigned to be one dimensional, unimaginative long ball merchants that will be punished and scrapping with mid tablers of the same ilk.
 
As much as I wish it not to be true they'll sign some class players yet. They did last season when they didn't even have CL football. I suspect VG will get them more horrible results next season.

I just wish Spurs were making some decent signings. Much prefer if they were fighting for fourth than Liverpool, hate wanting to see Liverpool win.
 
I suspect Kasper will go to replace the doughnut thief and that initially Valdes (haha) will be first choice til about mid-September then we'll be spun all the walking in his father footsteps and if we've signed Pogba that they got one if our ex-players so much cheaper etc.
 
Good ole Raymondo with another corker...

(from the Express)

FORMER France boss Raymond Domenech believes Morgan Schneiderlin should settle for a move to Manchester United, but only because Chelsea and Manchester City aren't interested.
United are now in pole position to land the player from Southampton.
And while Domenech says the 25-year-old needs the move to retain his place in the French squad, he believes a move to Old Trafford will have to suffice because their aren't better options available.
"For him, [United] is a good move," Domenech told reporters.
"If he wants to be with the French national team, then he has to be in this Champions League - but if he stays at Southampton, no luck."

"United are better than Southampton, sure, but it's not [Manchester] City, it's not Chelsea. For him, the first thing is to leave Southampton.
"After, if he gets a team just behind the three big teams, it's good.
"Maybe after, he'll come through. He is good enough for the Champions League."
 
How does one find out old Raymundo's number so i can cordially invite him to a party in his honour.

I think most utd fans know what he say's is true but it must bloody well hurt hearing it put like that.
Top dogs for years and then scratching for 4th, miles away from being as well set as Chelsea or ourselves, even arse are looking much more solid now.

For all their love of baconface he watched and agreed (at least enough to stay) their demise via asset stripping. For all the good he has done them the bad stuff seems to be ignored somewhat.
If he loved Utd or cared about them much at all he would have kicked off proper seeing the Ronaldo's go to be replaced with Nani's and such. All they needed to do was buy 1-2 rvp's (big signings) a year and they would have stayed relevant at the very top as opposed to being a stocking filler as they are now.
 
Am I the `only one who wants DeGay to stay at united another year and then leave on a free?
 
His (bacon face's) legacy in terms of the team he left and having a hand in the appointment of Moyes was undoubtedly a disaster.
The scholes out of retiremnt move was a clear statement that they had nothing in midfield yet he failed to even try and replace him before and after he retired. They are still suffering with Carrick and Mop head being influential players when they should really be squad players at best (given age and ability respectively).
Their season next year hangs on the form of a small number of players and the transfers they make.
If they get ADM back on form they have a match winner, they also need to settle on a back 4. They need a goal scorer. They need a central midfielder.
If they sort those issue out they could compete at the top but they seem to ignore the obvious year after year.
 
Am I the `only one who wants DeGay to stay at united another year and then leave on a free?
This seems to be what the media are missing out on when they go on about the scum playing hardball over Flappy. They have 2 choices. Accept what Madrid are offering now or lose him on a free in 12 months. There's even the possibility that he could choose to buy out his contract for £5m and go this summer, although it's less likely.

Looks delighted to be at the rags pre season training.
I'm all for taking the piss out of United however don't make shit like this up, making up bullshit to get a stab in is a United tactic. We're better than that. We have loads of things we can take the piss out of them for, that photo is clearly from his holidays. Here he is in training today looking perfectly happy.

I still can't understand why they want Ramos.
They have Smalling, Jones, Blackett and Evans at cb.

More like looking perfectly cold!
 
Valdes going stale in the reserves, DDG unhappily running his contract down. Perfect outcome for me.

Have Sterling stay at the dippers as well then pay a million or 2 while we're at it and he has 1 year left.
