United thread 2019/20

[Blue Mist]

I was never any good at maths but Sanchez has been at Inter Milan for 24 hours. In that time Manchester United have paid him many many thousands pounds. jut thought I would mention it.

Pep Guardiola on whether Alexis Sanchez would have shone at City: "No because I don’t know. Maybe he would have been bad too. I don’t know. The moment he decided to go to United was perfect, I wished him all the best and personally and that’s all."

Just wait until Chong & Greenwood grab a brace against Rochdale in the cup in a couple of weeks. They'll be the new new new new new new new new Jizzyjazz & Macheda.

Southgate will then phone Sterling and tell him although he’s the best wide forward in the country that he isn’t picking him as he wants to have a look at other players like Chong and Greenwood.

United being drawn in 'Group L' has really, really amused me. Incredibly apt.

How do they manage to impair the ability and fitness of previously good players. I can think of de Maria, Falcao, Lukaku, Pogbad, Sanchez as more famous ones who got rapidly worse after short spells at United. Others, such as Shaw, Jones, Lingard, have declined steadily over the years. There are probably plenty of others too - just remembered januzai.

How are they so badly damaged by the nited way?

Its the weight of all that money............sorry history...............they make mate.

Pep Guardiola: “You judge it was a failure for just Alexis, but there are many reasons. They don’t play alone - it’s not tennis, it’s not golf. To play with 10 players against one system, against opponents, against many, many things that are involved..."

“I don’t know what happened, I was not there, I will not be there, so that’s why I cannot give my opinion - but I am not thinking it is just for one reason.”

Just call him a mercenary pep,you know you want to

It will never be a harmonious club with the Piss Can hanging around and so many ex-managers and players pouring petrol on the fire..................I am glad to say

Darmian - bought for £12.7m sold for £1.4m - way to go Ed great bit of business.

I sort of hope the Greenwood scores a few soon. They'll be convinced that he's the next Rooney. But he wont be so just another 18 months of wasted time and confused strategy.
