Seniors

Keane, Lingard, Pogba, Morrison

Juniors

Hanson, Mather, Mainoo, Oyedele.


My point actually is; none of them (seniors) turns out a Legend at United despite their heroic performances at U18.
grin

3/4 for seniors.

3/4 for juniors.

unfortunately, there will not be a mass clearout. At most expect 4 signings. I think there will be 3 personally.
It is not really about the number of signings but the quality and position.
Personally I think we need 2 starting CMs (no6 and no8), a starting CB , and probably a starting RB.

Seems like you have high hopes for this lad.

We haven’t had an academy player do well either here or elsewhere for a while.
He has good skill, very good mentality, and decent pace. He is coming into the first team at a time we have a good manager who is known for developing talent.

The main problem (apart from the possibility of injury) is the fact that there are currently 4 senior players who prefer his favourite position.

We really should utilize our connection with VDS more. grin

Send our youngster there for loan. They will prolly get the much needed match time and some European experience.

And then always raid their pool of talent. cheesy
Ajax churns out youth players like water as well. They won't develop our players to the detriment of theirs.

Not a fan of either Rice or Phillips, besides we can't burn the summer budget on overpriced and overhyped English frauds.
I don’t like Rice. He is another potential Maguire.

It may be too early jare.

Which one of the youngies has made it to the first 11 and prospered?
If he does not make it here he will make it elsewhere. The only winger/forward better than him in recent years at the youth level is Greenwood. He is better than Rashford and Elanga at the same age, and compared to them he is very good technically.
Major problem is that he is yet another right-footed wing-forward who prefers the left side like Sancho, Elanga, Rashford, Martial.

In the Village of blind men, one eye man would definitely be considered a King. Hope he's gonna win it this Season too? LMFAO!




grin

Oooops..... what about at Wolfsburg? Do I need to remind you he won DFB-Pokal and DFL-Supercup: 2015 with Wolfsburg?

Individual Awards to show for it?

>Bundesliga Player of the Year
>Bundesliga Team of the Year
>UEFA Europa League Squad of the Season
>Footballer of the Year (Germany)
>Belgian Sportsman of the Year

Unlike Bruno he never went Trophyless with a midtable Club, nor dragging local Awards with Retirees and Rookies.



grin

So what matters in football is no more number of Titles won? Hopefully, your MCM won't end his Career with dusty, empty kitchen Cabinet.
But you really should not be attacking Bruno like this. Even if he is not your favourite player.

Exactly my thoughts the expectation was much. Things improved after they got the penalty though.
Did you see that comedian of a ref and his assistant. Even without replay i knew it wasn't a penalty.

The youths haven’t been playing particularly well.
I woke up to watch the last 30 minutes. Forest is a really physical side and and i think the occasion also got to them. The attendance of 67,000 is way more than a few hundred to a few thousands that they are used to.

FA Youth Cup Final today. To think that the hopes of the club for silverware now rests on the shoulders of 16 and 17yr olds.

With the pressure that has mounted on the boys now i won't be surprised if they freeze on the big stage. Over 60,000 people attending a Youth Cup match. Fans are desperate for anything anything trophy. grin

My immediate elder bro came back from UK a day after xterday.

Just yesterday,he drove to my place cos we ain't far from each other...we had a gist and he said he was going down to do some exchange in other to have some Nigeria currency at hand just 10 mins drive from my home

I was suppose to accompany him but I just changed my mind cos I was too lazy to change the short I was in....

I received a call just 3 mins and the rest was a super story.

He came out from this vehicle with just a scratch in the leg although I drove him to d hospital for a proper check up..

He said d only thing he could remember was shouting "Jesus" n he was asked to be calm by no one even as the car somersaulted 3x.

The car was up side down and he broke out from the shattered glass thereby sustaining d injury he had

He didn't hit any car nor anything ...the road was free as it was on sunday but he couldn't just explained what happened.
Thank God for his life.

It is possible he nodded off for a nanosecond. I have had a similar experience but not as bad as this one.

We had ZERO chance of getting him anyway.

Only someone with a familiar spirit will want his family member to join Man Utd at this time. Not to talk of Haaland whose father played for City and Leeds (and got his leg broken by a United captain).

You haven’t discussed this issue from the angle of the board and the Glazers.

Scouting network. Medical department. Player negotiation. And refusal to back managers in the market after their first year.

ETH May turn to DOGE by the time he spends 3 months at Man Utd. Everything is rotten.
People scouted AWB and approved 50m pounds to buy him. grin

I remember years ago when i was warning ChristineC about the danger of awarding huge salaries like Udoji to players who were still developing, she said those salaries were in line with United's status as a big and profitable club.

Rooney saw the direction the club was heading towards way back in 2010 when he asked that the club allow him to leave, but the fans didn't understand what was going on then. The rot did not start suddenly in 2013 when SAF retired.

He stuck with the senior players to what end? At some point, a coach has to make that tough decision.

Talking about control over incomings and outgoings, I think Rangnick and LVG as well as some ex players must have spoken to Ten Hag because ordinarily, ETH has not gotten to the level where he can force the club to stick to his terms or bounce...
One does not really need any certain level to ask for control. Yes he asked for control because he had inside knowledge about the dysfunctional state of anomie established by nitrogen and his fellow board members. However he got that guarantee to have control because after several weeks of negotiations the club realised he was ready and happy to walk away if they didn't acquiesce to his demands.

ETH was not desperate to be appointed Man Utd manager and the club realized he was willing to walk away if his demands were not met. He wasn't desperate for the job enough to accept it under wretched conditions.

Contrast that with Mourinho whose level was way higher than ETH's current status, but because he was desperate to manage a big team again after his Chelshit sack he grabbed the job with 2 hands without guarantees to have control.

Good day guys...
I am a Corper serving in Rivers state...
My girlfriend has been asking me when we would get paid as of last month...
Well
We got paid on Thursday..
She was asking me when I was going to give her her share...
Mind you..
This Rivers state government doesn't pay corpers..
Even my PPA doesn't pay...
I have to manage 33k in a strange land...which I why I actually ventured into side hustles...
Just this week alone...
I have sent her like 3k...
She became upset when I told her we'll discuss how much I'd give her later...
She said she didn't wanna talk tor and started giving me cold answers...
I respectfully hung up..

Am I selfishhuh

Rangnick should have binned majority of the players when it was obvious they had downed tools.

Get the young lads in and who knows, they might just be a gem in there...

Erik Ten Hag shouldn't even think of going on holidays, the task ahead of him is huge. We have to start conclude our deals early enough to make room for integration during the preseason...I trust that by now Rangnick must have spoken with Erik and the senior management of the club on who should be sold or have his contract terminated...We can't keep players who are not ready to fight for the badge...
Only sacrifice to Fenibeso can save ETH the way I am looking at it. He has so many stumbling blocks and so many enemies of progress (both within and outside).

How the Glazers, Woodward and his college roommates wasted billions in building a crap squad should be studied at PhD level. You couldn’t replicate it even if you tried.

Under-23 season is over. I heard that Rangnick was not happy with Hannibal's undisciplined cameo against Liverpool so he just might be punishing him.
