I only saw the highlights and round up on Match of the day2...but I kept an eye out for Mainoo.

When he had the ball, he was fine. When he didn't have the ball he was dire.

Not that I want to sit and dig out a 19 year old for his flaws, but Mainoo is a huge reason why the rags are so poor in the middle of the park when they're out of possession. Teams just walk through them.

He has very poor positional awareness out of possession. But he's 19, I'd kind of expect some inexperience. It's also their fault for thinking a 19 year old can basically sit alongside a shot to bits Casemiro. The experienced one should be there to support the young one, not the other way around.

I don't know what his ceiling is, he doesn't look that special to me, just a decent prospect. Either way, they'll have ruined him within a couple of years. Another young "star" that ends up nowhere near what they thought. Either because he was overrated in the first place, or because they can't manage young players these days. They play them out of desperation, not to nurture them.

They have Southampton and Palace, both away games next two league games and then home to Spurs.

Can see them getting nil pois from those games.

Bottom 3 by October. lol.

Nil "pois" ok maybe try magic beans then I have some for sale lol

If they sack tent peg they won’t hire Southgate. They have their new Manager already

An ex rag striker who was a good goalscorer for them about two decades ago, but no real success as a manager, taking over from a sacked manager

I'm sure I've seen this film a few years ago

But but but this is Manchschester Uuuuunited we are talking about.

I doubt I will live long enough but would love to see the cunts relegated or at least a relegation battle!!

They have an annoying habit of digging out results when their backs are against the wall. If they don’t take 6 points vs Soton and Palace things could get quite interesting!!

Scum!!

He'll fall at the first hurdle

He won't want saddled with that lot

I know it's hard to visualise but there are wore teams in the Prem and that's why they will do OK and not be anywhere near relegation as nice it would be

Unfortunately there will always be three worst clubs than them each season. I mean look at Everton, they dance with relegation regularly but there are always 3 worse than them.

I’m quite enjoying things as they are. Them spending shit loads on crap players and then doing fuck all with it. Then embarrassing themselves on live telly every week.

These are good times. Good times.

Three weeks into the season and United have been on TV every week. And they will be on TV again after the international break away at Southampton. Thank you Sly Sports TV and TNToss TV. Keep on showing United.

Slept sound last night after that.

I really thought that last season was the low point and that they’d improve a bit this season. They still might I suppose but at the moment they look worse than ever. How is it possible to spend so much money and still be absolutely shit? One can only conclude that, in the words of the song, Ten Hag is indeed a fucking clown!

Ugarte might help them in midfield, if he stays fit, but the main problem remains the same as it has been, ever since the pisscan fucked off; buying big names looking for a final big deal (Casemiro), unknown kids with potential (Højlund) and Dutch players, with whom ten Bob has worked before (Antony).

And central to all this is the manager, who presumably has the final say on which players they bring in.
