United thread 2019/20

[Stoned Rose]

Thank fuck he missed that penalty last night, or we would have had the usual raggy wankfest in the media. There the only club that can waste £850m and the press don't say anything.

Come now mate, they’re still spending the Ronaldo money.

 

[Blue Hefner]

Didn't watch the game but there squad is so weak once the main players rack up games they'll be fcuked come February!

Still in favour of Var its early teething problems I feel next season the handball rule in the box will change to if it your hands and then goes in it be disallowed. The offside rule will change to your feet being offside as the yardstick.

But what happens if the player scores with his head? Why would where his feet were make any difference?

Thats good point so forgot about that and maybe it be a margin of error of a thicker line say 3 inches so under that by say 1 inch be inside but but it will look 2 inches offside half an inch over 3 inch margin or error and its offside.

 

[Blue Til Death]

Shored up their defence but I reckon their midfield is actually worse than last season..! Must be that transition thing, the 30 year plan ..!

Sky sports news.
Coming up next let's talk MANchester united.
More on mcthinngy?????.

And that boy james.
Turned it off fuck that

I had it on in the background. Had Mctominay talking about the class of 92 because there's a tenuous link with him too, been at the club since he was a kid... Anyway, shown a few old highlights. Scholes volley versus Bradford 20 years ago and McTom saying wow what a goal that was.
Pointless unnecessary nostalgia

Neville coming up with a belter that Pogba could be in with a shout of player of the year. Why do they come up with this shite? Pogba is playing in a middling United side that will compete in the second tier of European football, if we applied his logic Kinkladze should have been give player of the year when we got relegated in 1996 who was a much more talented footballer than Pogba.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

From the express, nothing against Everton as i think they have a good team and manager but shows how far they have fallen behind us, Liverpool, Tottenham etc:
Manchester United's Argentina international defender Marcos Rojo, 29, was denied a move to Everton on transfer deadline day because the Glazers see the Toffees as a direct rival

I imagine the Glazer's wouldnt know anyrhing in the slightest about Everton and couldnt even find the city of Everton on a map!

Yes, their midfield needed upgrading just as much as the back line, the central midfield is mediocre - Pogba has ability but turns up only when he feels like it, Matic is done at this level and McTominay is another overrated future Sunderland captain. It was a master stroke letting Herrera go and not bothering to recruit anyone decent to replace him. Long live Ed!

 

[GaudinoMotors]

It’s full on wankfest even with a draw. An outstanding fact on SSN that’s so impressive. The youngest matchday squad in the PL this season, wow. If they add another 4 or 5 top quality players they are ready to pounce on us. So that’s another 4-500 million needed to get near us.

Talkshite choosing to report they're up to 4th!

 

[argyle]

I think defensively they look much better. They're also pressing the ball and their tempo is higher.

Their problem is midfield, no creativity and laziness by certain players.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Has anyone heard Neville's take on Pogba's dive last night?

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

Rags did look more of a team than last season
Unfortunately Bissaka and Maguire have definitely improved them.
They totally lack any creativity in the middle and Rashford on his own won’t be enough to make them a top 4 outfit.
They will however be difficult to score against which was not the case last season.

I thought that Bissaka and Maguire were a level above the rest of their team. The midfield is dire though with Lingard, McTominay, and Pogba. Neville said Pogba was great but to me he seemed to misplace most passes, bottle out of challenges, and then missed his penalty. James is dreadful, the new Scott Sinclair. They are still miles away from success.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

That James lad should have had a pair of yellows, dive & downing his foot on the Wolves player...ever the same, also has a face you'd never get tired of twatting.

The further away the fucking better..

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

I loved the bit near the end of the analysis when Neville said that United need to prepare the squad over the next two years so they will be "ready to pounce when Pep leaves City." They have become a laughing stock!

Start of a new season. Standard.

I can guarantee as we go on that will fade because there are just too many issues internally for it not to.

 

[DrBlueBob]

If Mctominay as the answer I shudder to think what the question is.

There only hope but to be fair, the rat has a point.

We are right in the midst of our most dominant ever period. The football we play is out of this world.

Pep is the don. He is the man. What happens after him is open to debate but it will be very, very hard to replicate where we are in this moment.

The gap, though, is so big that even after an inevitable fall off from our current standard, they will still be fucking miles away.

 

[doobyedoobye]

They have close to zero attacking options from the bench. In fact it's the weakest they've been since Ferguson left

People talking like the world will cave in when Pep leaves. We ain’t built like the rags who got lucky with one manager in their entire existence in Fergie who dominated for 20 odd years. We’ve had Mancini and Pelegrini win leagues in recent times, as a club we give the manager the tools and environment to be successful. If we ever neglect that we will end up like the rags.
