who would you like us to sign if Sancho, Ziyech and pepe are available?

This one is tough. Any of these guys will be a massive addition to that right wing. If I'm to make a choice, I will go for Pepe sha. He looks tough. Can ride a rough tackle

Mehn this Pepe looks like the guy we need for that our right wing o. The guy is good abeg

We've heard all these before

elrony:
That one says Ole doesn't know who to sign

I'm beginning to believe these guys sef. Imagine Ole was trying to bid for Stam too? #OleOut

elrony:
.

I am suspecting this laugh o

GloryIsaac:
I just laughed when i saw that last line ... It shows perpetual ignorance.

I blame Ole for telling the press that he's bidding for everybody. Even the one the club denied, I'm sure Ole was the one doing the linking. #OleOut

afrodoc2:
Lol. Leave that one.
He doesn’t allow the facts get in the way of the narrative he is trying to draw.

I will mainly be on siddon look mode until the window ends and the season starts.
If Ole wants to depend on Youngy, Rashy, and Lingy Na him sabi. No be me dem go sack.

I don't think Ole will want to depend on these guys for next season. The only coach that I trust can win something with these guys is SAF and he's not coming out of retirement. And if Ole believes he can perform magic, good luck to him. He will be out by December.

As for me, zee world and televista are starting to look very interesting to me plus they don't cost much to subscribe for. No heartbreaks, no pain, just fun

Lana1 you dey crase o

ChristoBam:
I said all these about Ole months ago but almost everyone here attacked me.

If United's newly appointed manager was an outsider we for Don dey hear some frustrations from him like this. Trust me, Ole will go with whatever the boards decide. The board are happy they hired someone like Ole, they are even more happy fans bought into the Ole hype. No one can blame the board for hiring someone they can control easily as y'all called for the appointment.

I used to hear stories from those mumu ex players of how Ole is always gentle and cheerful to the public but can also be really fierce with his players. All those ones na bobo..

The really sad thing is that it doesn't even seem that Ole knows the players he wants to sign, not to talk of the ones to sell. We're linked with every Tom, Dick and Harry available in the transfer window.

It's Ole that's doing the linking?

SkimpleD:
Eph12, I see you for corner!

How e dey be you man?

Baba been very busy these last few months. A very welcome busy lol. As per oyinbo no wan get sense

afrodoc2:
Lol. See as United fans just dey gentle. This season don wire us well well.

I'm not even excited about any new signings. Until I see them play

What if De Ligt comes and we find out we have to stick with Smalling and Jones for the season because De Ligt is finding it tough to settle?

chidexxy007:
Most of them are just there for the money..

I just hope they do the right things this time around

Everybody is vexing on this board these days. I don't know what those guys are doing at Manchester. The lack of ambition is just so obvious there

JayKayMaybachz:
RUMOUR
United have offered €14m per year to Matthjis de Ligt and Barcelona will not match that. They are trying to convince him on their sporting project but this does not include the 'economic effort' required by the player and Mino Raiola. (source: sport via sportwitness) #MUFC

Mehn I hate this Raiola guy

Owners come and go but the fans remain.
The club is essentially the fans, so that your last statement is actually not applicable. At United,like in other clubs, we are that “himself” you mentioned in the last statement, and not owners like the Glazers who can come and go at anytime.

I personally am genetically incapable of supporting another club after supporting this club from my childhood. I am just incapable of developing the same level of passion or interest in any other club.

Na to leave football completely na instead of moving on to another club

80% of the squad finished 2nd and reached a cup final last season, and also went on a title winning run in middle of the just concluded season.

Liverpool who finished 2nd and are in the CL finals, finished 4th last season, how many players did they sell?

we are already crying for a new right back, forgetting we have one diogo dalot who just came in, what about Fred? we have already given up on them.

shey what was fabinho doing at liverpool last seasoon? he was shiit, and was getting benched by milner, now he's in the CL final after a mouthwatering performance against la midget, man-utd on the other hand have already written off fred and are looking to sign three new midfielders, perreria is now average and should be sold to the championship, that is after our fans have complained that a certain fellaini is blocking his path.

the team needs new additions no doubt, but it also needs good coaching. shey no be for dis same place people were saying our midfield trio of pogba herrera and matic are only 2nd to city's in the PL, who the liverpool midfield wey destroy barca? abi ajax midfield is now better than that of madrid that consists of modric kross and casmeiro? or did ajax beat madrid cuz ajax have better players?

pogba is a world cup winner, lukaku has 100PL goals despite spending most of his careers playing for mid table teams., martial was believed to be better than sterling and rashford on par with sane and jesus b4 pep touch them. smalling has been an important piece of our defense post SAF that have conceded the least goals in the in two separate PL seasons, and de gea na no.1 for FIFAPRO last season, you can't tell me making top 4 with dis group of players should be rocket science if they are coached well.

At some point the club will have to correct the current wage structure if not they may run into problems sooner than we think. Many players are currently earning much more than they deliver and are even asking for more. They can't run their socks off on the field but they want more pay. How long bro?

nitrogen:
Thank you. I have been saying this since only God knows when. We need one or two additions, no doubt, but this team is good and can compete well if we know what we are doing.

Which manager can make this team compete?

ChristoBam:
Pogba's soul is not elsewhere. He's torn between staying at United and moving to Madrid. When that happens, the club had to look for a way to convince him staying is the right choice.

Apart from that, list players you think should be Captain and Deputy Captain of the team. E be like say una just wan dey criticize sha.

You know what this means right?

8 guys out of 10 housemates

Viewers should get ready for some gay content

larride:
All just because you want us to keep A. Young?

Exactly

elampiro:
After watching the depth of Man City squad and looking at how injury affects us season after season, I want to suggest we should not sell players. If you select our worst 11 from the current squad, they cannot lose 6-0 to Man City. The worst will be 2-0 or 3-1.

The club should retain all players and add to them. When injury crisis hit, we should have players who can hold their own against the best as back ups. What we have had since SAF left is falling back to reserve players or inexperienced players when injury hit and the result has always been disaster.

After we have stabilize, those who will want to leave for lack of much game time can go, and those who we want to sell can be sold.

Have you looked at the wage bill? How much these guys are currently earning or asking for?

U guyz should stop giving ur self useless hope dybala won't cme. Who wants to play yoruba league?

Who wants him to come before?

afrodoc2:
Good talent with world class potential. Has better technique than almost all our forwards.

However if it’s true that OGS will be given 250m we can’t spend half of it on an unproven teenager.
Even if we need to spend large on a teenager Sancho is less of a risk.

I would not go above 80m for either of them (assuming the 250m package is right). There are too many holes to fill and it looks like Koulibaly is coming for about 80m already, leaving 170m for about 3 or 4 positions.

Whoever they choose please they should just make the right choice.

250m ke? I guess OGS will need to sell if he wants more money

larride:
You are a joker Elruditor.

So Pep was able to beat Spurs in the league home and away and the same Spurs dump Pep out of the UCL?

If Pep beat Spurs home and away in the league, what stop him from beating them in the UCL also and be among one of the finalist?

Fergie was not just winning the league, he was beating the EPL team he faced in the UCL also. It’s not that the EPL was weaker, it was because Fergie was BETTER which can’t be said about Pep.

Maybe Tottenham used a different team in the chmapions league

raumdeuter:
Salah did what no African has done before score 30 goals a season. Salah has now topped the EPL chart 2 seasons in a row

Should we still wait for 3 seasons or its 2 seasons now?

Melvyn11:
You are comparing apples and oranges. Was Barca and Bayern built around Pep like Ferguson who had an entire club structure built around him. Could pep afford to go seasons trophyless like Ferguson?

So it's no more risk of being sacked again, it's club structure now?

Melvyn11:

What other structure does a coach need than being a legend player of the team, and coaching the junior team. Who is more Barca than Pep that has been there for years? Someone that understood the Barca way and has made his players play in that way abi? Which structure pass that one?

Pep can afford to go trophyless and nothing will happen

Melvyn11:
No am not taking about when he was trophyless with United then he had not accomplished anything. Talking about from 1990s to 2010 when Ferguson was already the main man,was he ever at risk of being sacked at United?

Was Pep at risk of being sacked before he left Barça? Was he at risk of being sacked before he left Bayern? He will soon leave City now, and you will claim he's at risk of being sacked

Melvyn11:
Did Ferguson start winning immediately he came to united? Nah Ferguson could never had left united. He was a Coward who was scared to leave his comfort soon and try other challenges.

Ferguson that lost his best player and still made champions league final after that? Pep left Messi and since then he has been struggling with life. He can't even make semi not to talk to final after spending billions. I mean who loses Ronaldo, that was steadily guaranteeing goals and recovers immediately with Anderson, Park, old man Giggs, Cleverly, old man Scholes, Chicha as core players lol

Melvyn11:
Ferguson was a brilliant manager,No doubt or argument about that. But this rebuilding angle is pure bullshit. United has a club was built around Ferguson. He was literally In charge of everything. What difficulty did he encounter in rebuilding, Was he ever in danger of being sacked...never. Unlimited resources and a wonderful academy . He had all time and resources at his disposal. He could go seasons trophyless and nothing would have happened. He should try it in this modern era. He would have been sacked.

Fergie that almost lost the job just a couple of years after he joined the club if not for the FA cup win? Lol

Airmark what happens to this club when Messi retires?
