there is talk today that we might be getting pepe. i think utd are trying to struck a deal for de gea or they are a massive chance to lose him on a free transfer. i am not a massive fan of pepe tbh.

Seems we are always lacking in an area. Under fergie, especially his last few years, our midfield wasnt great. Now our midfield is great but we are lacking in defence.
Titles are usually won from the back so its why we needed to fix this area first IMO.

Has anyone got a CB this window? It seems they aren't available or overpriced.

Love that we finally look like having class wingers at OT again.

Thickened up our central midfield.

I may be crazy but I think a fit Jones will be our key in defense.

I really would like another crafty backup striker though. We don't have to break the bank on every purchase.

So the CL qualifying draw is tomorrow at 8pm or 9pm.
We can draw one of: Club Brugge, CSKA Moscow, Lazio, Monaco or Rapid Vienna.
Any preference?
I'd want Brugge, Lazio or Vienna. I don't want us to travel to Russia and Monaco may surprise us

like depay already wants the 7 shirt not a soft cock like dimaria. pedro to join in the next few days think overall we are stronger then last year but we need a cb or two and a striker not against pepe as a stopgap but have no idea why lvg doesn't want otamendi

Yeah, it does seem strange that we'd ignore such a good player like Otamendi when we are in need of quality CB's. Maybe LVG just doesn't value him that highly, another thing could be that Otamendi doesn't offer an improvement on Jones or Smalling when it comes to playing it out from the back so maybe he just isn't what he's looking for in a CB.

If di Maria and his family think they're safer in France, they are mistaken. Formula 1 driver, Jenson Button, along with his wife, got gassed in their home in France and had jewelery stolen today.

I hope you and you're family stays safe Angel, but be scared you snake

He never wanted to be a United player, his words anger me, said he wanted to leave but 'also' United wanted him to leave, spare me.

Vienna is probably the weakest of the three.
