United thread 2018/19

[Mikejl]

I don’t get their Fascination with going for Boateng or Maguire.....surely the answer is right in front of them.

1. Jose knows his game inside out
2. He knows what tactics manager uses every time
3. Old
4. Slow
5. Available

Step forward JT

Mark my words - it could happen

Don’t forget boyhood rag

Don’t forget boyhood rag

And a detestable c@nt too.

I find it quite amusing that they think Pochettino would go to them

Have they already forgotten that the pisscan wined and dined Pochettino in a desperate attempt to lure him away from Spurs before the rags reluctantly turned to the eye-gouging twat?

Really? Never knew that. I'll be using that one in work tomorrow.

If they sign Jerome Boateng I think it will nicely sum up everything wrong with them.

They're going after a 30 year old, very injury prone defender who fell out of Bayern's first team last summer, and paying £45-50m for the privilege, allowing Bayern to buy another up and coming young player in Pavard.

It's a transfer no one else in the top 6 would consider for a moment.

If Boateng does rock up at the swamp, I can hear the chant at the Etihad derby:

CITY REJECT! CITY REJECT!

And maybe a matchday song deviation special of 'You signed Boateng, we signed Kun Aguero'

It would be the signing that would tip them over the edge......

Please let it happen - a perfect match between twats

 

[2sheikhs]

Nice to see sky sports doing all they can to sign utd a player before the window closes. They are running a poll on who they should sign. Total disrespect to the actual clubs who have these players.

Well whoever it is will be a bargain and will have Pep quaking in his boots.(until it transpires that he’s turd and needs replacing)

I'd like them to sign Maguire -he's really just Phil Jones Plus.

Didn't he try something similar with Pep when Pep was on his sabbatical year and Ferguson was in his last season before retiring? Perhaps it was the deep-fried mars bars that put them off. ;-)

Maguire can probably walk in heels without falling over

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Rammed up his arsehole!

Sideways, so he might feel it.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

The whole saga with Maguire just smacks of "panic buy".

He's English and he had a half decent World Cup, and that's it. He is simply not worth the fortune they seem to be willing to want to spank on him.

I hope they do buy him. It will just prove how far they have fallen.

Not the sort of player I normally appreciate as a defender but I like a lot of his qualities and I actually think he'd be an excellent addition to United. And I definitely don't agree that he's on the level of Jones - there's a lot to like in his game

A different profile to that of Stones than I prefer but a big mistake to underrate him. He'd be a fortune of course but he is English and his profile has long been coveted in the Premiership. I think they need a leader in defense who can also give you something in the opponent's box too

They have Smalling ? ;-)

 

[crazyg]

Martial has done nothing to increase his value since joining the Rags – nor has Pogba to be honest... not at club-level at least!

Well it's because they have received the very best guidance ,training and experience that money can buy , working with the creme de la creme of managers , thereby enhancing their inherent " world class " talents even further.

Meanwhile, back on planet Earth.....................

 

[bavarian blue]

Is Maguire better looking than Jones ,or a close call.?

Who's paying you to say that?
He's a half decent footballer with a good touch for a big lad.
As somebody on here alluded to he looked better than usual in the world cup as we didn't play anybody of a high calibre.
Yes he is a beast at corners but are the rags really paying 80m for a guy who can only nick a goal at set pieces?
Last season he got turned, outrun and outdone on many a weekend which doesn't make him a bad player but any forward rapid over 10yards and he's toast.
Imo he isn't any better than what they've got.

I think he did and I seem to remember that Pep said he couldn't understand a word and didn't realise he was tapping him up

 

[NorthamptonBlue]

Hoping they splurge £80M on Maguire. Decent player but not even at half that price.
