Manchester United thread

[RPCB]

Everyone got through unscathed and that's the most important part. Also the match gave Mourinho a chance to see his new team up close and personal against some quality opposition, especially Rojo. I say that's a good thing.

There's some trash that needs to be taken out, Mou will be using a lot of these players throughout the pre-season to see what they can do. Rojo and Jones likely to go I think, especially Rojo who is just s**t.

It was a lose-lose situation for us, win and its "oh it's only pre-season", lose and its all "haha #lolmou, United are s**t, thrashed by BVB, going nowhere".

I remember beating up on Barca 3-1 in pre-season, even best Real Madrid 3-1 in pre-season too, actually under LVG we had fantastic pre-seasons but were horrible when it counted.

We'll be fine.

Who cares about friendlies. No injuries and Mou gets to see the spuds.

exactly, only important things is no injuries and youth players getting the spotlight which is what pre season is about

 

[RPCB]

Lol at Brenton Speed needing to mention that Juventus have millions of fans worldwide and then the teams come out to an MCG that has never looked so empty.

 

[Langanis]

Anyone else besides me at the juve and victory game wearing a United shirt? Haha

The new home kit had been leaked ages ago but was officially revealed today. I like it a lot.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Yeah I like it too.

Might get Ibrahimovic on one.

 

[Cristiano Ronaldo]

I'll get one with Pele Jnr

 

[manureid]

Already ordered a Pogba one.

Ballsy

I don't mind the Half/Half design. I just wish they'd get rid of the hexagonal stripe they used to achieve the line.

Rojo... been saying he is rubbish since he arrived.

I don't like my defenders giving me nerves each time the ball goes near them.

Piss Rojo, Fellaini, Valencia, Depay, Jones, Young and Darmian off FFS

Why Darmian?

 

[hench]

Darmian seems terrible but from what I've read he seems highly rated by various clubs and managers.

 

[A Bit High]

Why Darmian?

I don't rate that's all. Looks suspect as a defender from what I have seen in a Utd shirt.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Agree that there's to many that give me bad nerves when the opposition attack our defenders. Smalling and Shaw look to the only solid ones with Bailey showing a bit. Rojo and Jones are crap, no time for them anymore, must be moved on. Also Valencia is no where near our best 11.

Darmian I would keep but he does need to start defending better.

We definitely need an experienced CB.

Good start to the season for Callum Gribbin.


Big year for him. Will play U21's football this season. Has all the talent in the world. Hopefully Warren Joyce can get the best out of him.

I'd hold onto Darmian, he can be a serviceable right back with the right players in front of him. Depay was touted as one of Europe's hottest prospects coming over from PSV, I am expecting a better season from him under Mourinho. He's got a lot of talent and when utilised correctly in a good system he will shine. Both are good players to keep around.

As for the rest, I wouldn't even attempt to say anything worthwhile about the likes of Rojo, Fellaini, Valencia, Young and Jones. I reckon the likeliest to be sold of the bunch will be Rojo. I'd love to see Fellaini and Young moved on. I suspect Jones and Valencia will be kept as defensive cover.

That was a real peach of a goal.

Some talk Moyes wants Januzaj on loan, would be a good move for him. Hopefully he goes after Fellaini too.

 

[pantskyle]

Adnan won't back it as a starting 11 player with us. May as well sell him. He'll make the starting 11 from a few teams in the league.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Should make that loan for Januzaj, he was one of very few players who was good under Moyes, he could recapture that sort of form.

Unfortunately I don't see a future for him at United, he is talented, but he won't get a regular look in with us and the longer he stays the more chance he is likely to just fall away and become a spud.

 

[Cristiano Ronaldo]

Highlights of preseason friendly against Salford City. MoM was Josh Harrop.

 

[Doctor Bojan_]

Andreas Pereira is heading out on a season long loan. Hopefully he stays in the prem.

Any idea where he's off to? As in clubs in particular linked?
