United Thread - 2023/24

Is starting on the left wing because it’s the position that lets us play Foden, Saka and Bellingham behind Kane, which is clearly Englands best attack.

Or because Southgate doesn’t have the courage to play Foden next to Bellingham. But then again Southgate has gone on record saying he didn’t play Phil centrally as he doesn’t play there for his club. He does now…. but he doesn’t play left wing for us.. so putting him out in the left will make him look idiotic.

As funny as it would be, I can't see it happening even if United wanted it. Southgate's not daft. He's in a good position, he gets paid a lot of money, very few games with the only really important ones every two years, and has the full backing of the FA. They won't sack him unless something drastic happens, like getting knocked out of the group stages of the Euro's, or a defeat in the last 16 to a weak team, like Iceland in 2016. Anything else he's safe until the next World Cup. I can't see him giving up his secure position for the pressures of daily management, games every week and being under the spotlight. If he gets sacked, then he's up the creek without a paddle.

The fucking state of this talentless sad sack living off his dad’s fame. Stupid ****

Why post the link it's helping the rag c-nt

So scruffy Jim is in debt to the hmrc at the rags . This must have come as a shock as he has avoided paying it with all his other ventures and he states he’s looking to bring through the next Mbappe rather than spending money. This is going to be a real giggle watching this unfold

More to do the glazers been hiding it till Ratcliffe bought a stake in them!

Glazers been cheating for since the banks acquired the club! Now there is an investigation that premier clubs should all sign to look into the accounts of the real dirty rotten cheating kunts

Or because Southgate doesn’t have the courage to play Foden next to Bellingham. Bit then again Southgate has gone on record saying he didn’t play Phil centrally so that’s why he didn’t play him there. He does now but he doesn’t play left wing for us!

Eh, Pep has said himself he didn't have the courage to play Silva and KDB together until Belgium tried having two 10's next to each other and proved it worked.

Bravery isan overrated managerial characteristic.

4231 has won every World Cup since 2002.

Pep has recently said the only issue with KDB and Foden playing is because of Haaland. Haaland is out and out forward. Kane drops back… do you not think they should play Bellingham and Foden centrally?

Nope. Why would I want Kane Bellingham and Foden all competing for the same space?

Fair enough. Shifting Foden out to the left (where he doesn’t play for his club), is poor. Who would you have in the middle with Bellingham and Rice?
