What you meant was very clear. The club can't buy players because they weren't sure if Ronaldo was going or staying. Its been 3 weeks he's been back now.
I said his decision to leave complicates our transfer plan as we will be forced to get a replacement which was not part of the plans going into the new season. How it's the same with what you're saying is what I don't understand...

If he stays, we won't sign a striker this window thus the resources will be channeled into fixing other areas of the team...It's not that hard na!

I wouldn't mind vardy.. The preset players don't like ronaldo..I'll let him leave.. vardy is a short term fix.. it's not like they are available young strikers anywhere.


Let Ronaldo leave and replace him with an injury-prone 35 years old man who have struggled with fitness for the past two years?

The thing is that there's no more IF. He's been back for 2+ weeks, nothing has been channeled into anything since then. You people made Ronaldo the problem affecting our transfer window, he wasn't

If we can't get a fix for that RB, make Wan Bissaka come back abeg.

That Dalot has nothing to give.

The club is in shambles and I think the way things are is affecting player performance. But we know what to expect from AWB. He go defend. But Dalot can not do anything. Just a number.

37 year old that wants to leave and most of the players don't like.. Will you rather keep 37 year old ronaldo and unsettle d whole team? Leave sentiments, I'm a ororo fan, but he's not that guy anymore.. when a team loses, what they need to do is regroup and get ready for the next game, not 1 37 year old questioning their mentality and sulking, like he's playing any better..

Man Utd want to buy Rabiot. Rabiot wants to come to Man Utd. Juve want to sell Rabiot to Man Utd. Nobody else wants Rabiot.

1 week has gone and no deal yet. Transfer window closes in 2 weeks. Other positions yet to be filled. League points are being dropped right, left, and centre.


And people think only the manager is the problem? cheesy

this same Maguire plays well for country. So what’s your point.

England plays 3 at the back because of Maguire. The only reason any manager plays 3 at the back is because he doesn’t fully trust any of his centre-halves so there’s always an extra man covering for mediocrity.

Man Utd play 4 at the back but the biggest problem is the depth of the team. Maguire suits a team that wants to counter attack. Sit deep(leave zero space behind), soak pressure and spring an attack as fast as possible the moment the opponent loses the ball.

However, because Ole and ETH want to play ‘modern’ football, they play a high line that leaves real estate between the last defender and a goalkeeper that doesn’t play as a sweeper. Maguire doesn’t have the pace to recover and De Gea rarely leaves his line.


It’s like expecting a wheelbarrow to win F1 race.

I’m glad you pointed out his strengths and weaknesses. Which every player has. The rule of thumb for a manager shopping for players is to buy players that fit his style.
You clearly stated why Maguire plays better in another system and doesn’t play better in United’s system. Yet you want to blame Maguire for such.

It was same reason I was on Good-Ebening’s case. Dude wanted to play 4-3-3 but kept buying slow midfielders.

My point is y’all need to cut some of these players some slack.

Troll aside I knew Pogba would flop at United ask Sinizia. Not cos he ain’t skilled but you guys interpreted his performance at Juve as being the backbone of Juve’s midfield, this was false. Pogba just like Ramsey thrives in chaos, they are not positionally disciplined. You need someone to really take responsibility of the midfield while they roam.

You guys need to stop buying players just for buying sake or to massage your ego. Buy what you need not what you want.

Maguire is shit at Man Utd. I don’t care for 3 Lions. My only concern is Man Utd and if Maguire isn’t working for the system United play, they should get rid of him. Playing Maguire in a high line is a recipe for disaster.

I am not cutting Maguire any slack. He’s the worst signing in the history of United. If you think of the money spent to get him and compare it to what he brings to the table, it makes me nauseous. The earlier ETH get rid of him, the better.

He’s the captain but has no leadership skill in him. United would lose a game and Maguire would post his passing stats or heading stats on social media to prove he played well. What sort of captain does that?

Pogba didn’t flop at United. He was instrumental in the few titles United won when he was at the club. I am pretty sure he scored a goal in the Europa final. Pogba needed a defensive cover in the mould of Kante or Matuidi, United never gave him that support.

Every club makes a mistake every now and then with recruitment. United’s problem is taking forever to recognize that mistake and fixing it. Guardiola bought Claudio Bravo and Nolito in his first season. It took him 5 months to see they weren’t going to work and he replaced them the next summer transfer window.

Klopp has had Karius, Kaban, Klavan replaced after 12-18 months with better quality. United still have people like Phil Jones, Viktor Lindelof, Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, etc in the club after producing shït performance every season. I don’t understand their obsession with shïtty players.
