Seriously asking?

Chance of seeing him on the pitch throughout the season is almost zero. Will feature mainly in the YouTube training videos.

Let's try a VDB and pogba midfield, VDB can't be worse than Fred FFS sad

I just tire.

They should try whatever they want to try. Just get the results without using lack of a DM as an excuse. The summer transfer window closes tonight.

VDB is still in Manchester, and gonna play the closed door (friendly) Match. He's not invited for a Reason. I won't be surprised if he plays DM in the Game.

On Record, Fred may miss our next Match, thus VDB should be prepared.

He's going home for Brazil Matches. He must quarantine once he returns to England for 10 days. That's the major Reason Cavani stays back.

be thankful for what you have, and McFred didn't exactly feature in the last game as well.
I remember early last season, we scrapped a 2-1 or 3-2 win against a club I can't remember right now (maybe Brighton), and there was littered rhetoric about doom and gloom as usual. United made light work of the same opponent 3-0 only three days later, even fielding a supposed weaker team.
these things are not black and white all the time.
no team is really perfect. three quality players have been added to a team on the fringes from last season. they deserve a fair crack at the very least.

E go better for you!

United had the best transfer window

Signing Varane, C-Ronaldo and Sancho

Donny van de Beek's agent Guido Albers: "There was interest from Italy, Germany, England... so that looked good. But you need the cooperation of the club, and it looked like they would, but they didn't. Disappointing, but also reassuring for him."

Donny van de Beek's agent Guido Albers: "Is he happy or disappointed? I won't say. But everybody who knows Donny knows he loves the game and he wants to be on the pitch every week. So from this answer you can probably tell what he wanted most."

They should just win the league or the UCL. How they do it doesn’t matter to me. McFred or not.

This is arguably the best team assembled since Fergie left, yet they can’t add one defensive midfielder to make it completely balanced.

We’ll probably have to outscore every opponent without concern for clean sheets.
perhaps the funds used to acquire Ronaldo was marked for a midfielder? but we didn't really make a prior offer for one anyways according to media reports. we can only speculate to certain degree.
I'm not saying the squad can't be better, but this is what we have, and maybe it's not so bad.
let's see how the season go.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by DeadPresidents: 2:23am On Sep 01, 2021
I can understand any frustrations being vented out. We just had a transfer window that is most definitely top 5 dead or alive (like Jadakiss) and we fail to go for the jugular by getting a DM.

You have some of the best attackers in the world, why then do you hesitate to give them a solid trustworthy base to do their thing?

With the squad we have there is no way we shouldn’t make top 4. That is all the Glazers care about.

The purchase of CR7 was just in order to prevent another fan revolt or meltdown. They were happy with Sancho and Varane.

It's like na only attacking players our academy dey pay more attention to. From Lingard set down to Greenwood Set. Na only Mctominey be the midfielders wey dem dey with 1st team. If I'm wrong, correct me abeg. And he sef be average player.

McTom dey. The defence guys No dey do well at all.
I feel they are not integrating them enough and giving them enough chance.

Because James Garner is not ready. That is perfectly ok as defensive midfielders mature at a different pace compared to attackers.

If a young attacker screws up, at worse you get a draw. If a defensive midfielder screws up, your chances of losing just jumped up (see Fred previous game ffs)

There is a reason no top 6 team has a starting DM from the academy.

City - Rodri
Pool - Fabinho
United - Matic
Chelsea - Jogginhoe/Kante
Spurs - Hojbjerg
Leicester - Ndidi

DM position is not where you employ IT students if you’re serious about winning anything.

I understand that. The previous post meant that clubs are under no obligation to release their players for international duty. So if they choose not to, they have the support of the FA.

Also, I doubt the players will face a country placed on the red-list, they might only play against those that are safe. E.g Michail Antonio

let's see how the season go.

The Ronaldo acquisition is quite funny, it reminds me of Alexis Sanchez (though I expect Cristiano to perform way better).

Ronaldo was never in the picture, but Man was fed up with Juve management and determined to leave. United only made that deal to avoid the shame of watching him play for City.

Never seen United attempt and complete a deal so fast when it’s not deadline day.

Well, let’s see how the season goes. By hook or crook, the league or UCL has to come home.

Those DMs came from heaven ready-made. Nice nice. We've had a DM issue for years, no purchases and no grooming. Must they play all the matches?

You people should stop mentioning Garner if he is not ready according to you. How is that a product?
