weedtaker:
so which of the English CB has been better than smalling in the PL dis season?

Smalling has been the best of a bad bunch. They're all shyt.

raumdeuter:
Martial not in France squad

Thank you Mourinho. No chance that his price is outrageous

He'll definitely leave us probably this summer. No way he renews his contract now.

dopeJemi:
Are you serious? Source please

Usual rumours.

I’m not sure about Sandro personally but make we siddon dey look.

Can never trust wilshere. Would even take Jonjo ahead of him.

The team lacks quality anyway. Only Sterling and Kane are top class.

weedtaker:
they both have similar style of play and are both at their best when used as supporting strikers, i don't think we need any of them, a mahrez, shaqiri, douglas costa, or willian should be top priority dis summer alongside two full backs and a backup CF.

Leicester want £75m+ for Mahrez, Griezman will costly roughly the same, around 100m euros. I think I'll take Greizzy in that instance.

SailorXY:
we should be going for Dybala or Griezmann as first options. Mahrez as second option & Shaqiri as last resort. He's not flashy but he can do his job with all seriousness; & we need serious players if we hope to win the league next season. Serious-minded like Baily, Herrera, Young, Fellaini, Valencia & somehow talented like Pogba.

No to Dybala, yes to Griezmann.

SIRcumalot:
make we start to shadow players for that right wing
I hear Barça fit won sell dembele to use the money buy greizman.
We should be all over that deal.

Won't mind Mahrez for the right wing.

What a strange lineup

For his sake, Martial should leave because he's playing for a manager who doesn't believe in him and who wont develop him.

I'm a huge fan of Martial but its not going to work with Jose. Jose clearly doesn't fancy him so its best he goes where his talents can be appreciated and developed. I'll be sad to see him go.

SAF is seriously ill in hospital.! It is well with him!

Oasis007:
“Bailly is fine, no injury. He is one of our five central defenders and honestly, my work is not about World Cups and preparing players for the World Cup or giving chances to players to do the World Cup, but he's the only central defender whose country's not in the World Cup.

"So, if I have to make a kind of more emotional, effective choice to try to help my players, he's the one I am not going to help until the end of the season. Because, of course, Marcos Rojo, Victor Lindelof, Phil Jones and Chris Smalling, all of them are wishing to make the squad for the World Cup and Eric is not under that pressure.

“I try to be a good team manager and that means being cold, being selfish, but I am not as bad as that and I still have space for a little bit of feelings. So, when I look to the other four central defenders fighting for a position in the World Cup, I'm giving less [time] to Eric.”

- JOSE MOURINHO

I'm not sure I agree with this thought pattern but na Jose get matter for head.

That was terrible

Leyqute:
Jose Mourinho Man Utd

Last season vs Big Five W3 D4 L5 This season vs Big Five W7 D1 L3

definitely cannot argue with the results against the other teams in the top 6 this season. Need to keep that up for next season.

Oasis007:
There are 3 Players of Spurs that if available - I wouldn't mind United getting them. They are;

Danny Rose
Mousa Dembele
Toby Alderweireld.

They are definitely gonna be good Signings bar Injuries though.

Just Toby thanks. No to the other 2.

Dembele is 31 and Rose hasn't come back well from the long term injury he had.

Unai emery to leave psg This summer. Wenger to psg?

chrisbaxtian:
it is not jare! it's a good movie, but certainly not the best

Agree to disagree.

Saw it laat night. Incredible. Definitely best comic book movie of all time.

Na wa for Salah sha. He has found some serious jazz for somewhere.

chrisley024:
Good win. Always love Herrera spirit. Sanchez and Pogba

Herrera isn't world class obviously but a he's very important part of the squad. He gets playing hard for the shirt and for the ckub.

Good win.

Bro, before the 1980s we were already the most famous and best followed club in the land. Before the 80s we had won the European Cup (first English team to do so), we already had 2 Ballon D'or winners, and our manager had been knighted by BOTH the Queen and the Pope.

We already existed and even thrived before then, we know the olosho clubs that can't say that (hint: full of area boys and their fans love shekpe)

Nicely done. Some idiots dont deserve schooling but well done.

Vanquay:
LMFAOOO they don't even have a good Midfield...Thier defense is in shambles,they could finish 4th next season...nothing higher than that.

Would be silly for them to get a new manager who wont bring it quite a nunber if new players. Just no way to predict what they'll look like at this point.

Leyqute:
DDG keeps 17th EPL cleansheet and 21 overall, his highest in a season for Utd.

Its DDG that I'm happy for. The rest of them can go take a running jump into a brick wall.

I would take 28 yr old Ryan Bertrand for £20m at leftback.

Oasis007:
Meanwhile...... I hope to see Liverpool win this Year UCL for EPL sake and pride!

God forbid bad thing!

LordAdam16:
You guys should start saying your farewells to De Gea!

-Lord

The world won't end for man utd if he leaves. He's obviously amazing but if he goes he goes.

RuuDie:
And this is the Manchester United that is supposed to be bigger than some other clubs in the EPL!?

True, true. I get am before...

What did Manchester united do now?

For me, Pep has disrespected Aguero too much this season. He should have been starting the last few matches. As good as Jesus is, he's simply not on that level yet.

Oasis007:
Pogba seems lazy, but Matic and Herrera are obviously Hard-Workers on the Pitch, hence they can be covering up for Pogba's defensive Lapses.

I ain't defending Pogba's poor attitude to Games at times, but I think with freedom to be an attacking Force with little defensive responsibility, he's certainly gonna be a Hit consistently.

Mou should kindly jettison 4 - 2 - 3 - 1 Formation, it's no more working for the Team. He needs to play to the Team's Strength.

Hopefully United gonna sign Fred and 2 more Midfielders in the Summer TW, thus the Team needs to start mastering 4 - 3 - 3 Formation against next Season.

United also need at least one RWF, hence I wouldn't mind Dybala or Griezmann or both. If there is an Opportunity to get the Duo, Ed Woodward shouldn't hesitate at all.

I don't think 4321 should be jettisoned completely. In game against smaller teams at home, we should be getting as many attacking players on the pitch as possible ao to me 4321 should work then. Just not in big games or away from home.

We won't be signing anymore attacking players unless we lose a couple this summer.

afrodoc2:
Like MRTA7 has said, Pogba's problems go beyond mere change of formation. His attitude and work rate has to improve, he can't keep ambling around like a chairman when KDB, Silva, Messi, Salah, Kante e.t.c are constantly pressing and pushing their opponents especially when required.

A formation change to 4-3-3 would help though as Pogba is not a 10, and this formation change is what i have pushed for for sometime now. All over Europe most of the successful teams are playing 3 midfielders and do not have a 10.
The change would work better if the 2 other 2 midfielders had pace, energy and ball passing skills AND that is where i believe for Pogba to thrive we need players a bit different to Matic and Herrera to play with him.

I like Matic, I think he's been an excellent signing for ua and his performances have been good. I'm still happy to have him starting for us next season. I do believe we can improve on Herrera McTominay with better replacements for Carrick and Fellaini. I'm not sure who yet but there are some midfield options being touted that would greatly improve us there. We need 2 signings in that area. We also need one top class CB and 2 new top full backs. So ideally 5 players this summer should set us up right. For a challenge on all fronts.

Oasis007:
Pogba needs to play in 3-man Midfield to thrive. He needs to play a free-role, dictating the Game and connecting Defence to Attack.

Mou should play 4 - 3 - 3 in our subsequent Matches. He should play the same Lineup against Man City, but replaces Lingard with Mata.

Mata is good at drifting inward, and can smartly and decisively linkup with Pogba and Sanchez in buildup play. Also I hope Mou has Learned one or two things from the 2nd Half of the City's Match.

We should never respect any Team anymore. We should attack our Opponents at the blast of the kickoff Whistle. Finally, Mou and his Armies should reward the Fans with FA Cup. They should do their utmost to win the FA Cup for the Fans.

GGMU!

Whilst I agree with most of that. Pogba playing in the 3 man role hasn't always been the only issue. His attitude and application has not always been right. Sometimes he just strolls around non chalantly like he doesn't care. One of the things I respect City for is that even with all their talent. Debruyne and Silva are usually City's hardest working players. That's something we need to see more from Pogba. If your most talented players are the hardest working you will succeed more often than not. If pogba applies himself like he did the City match regularly he will become the best in the league because the talent is undoubted.

If Martial leaves this summer only a premier league title will let me forgive Jose.
