BREAKING NEWS

Sky sources: Leicester defender Harry Maguire is still hoping Manchester United will sign him with just one day to go before the window closes
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by JayKayMaybachz(m): 5:35pm On Aug 08, 2018
One source has told us United have already had two bids turned down by Leicester for Harry Maguire. The second bid was worth about £60m.

Leicester are in advanced talks to sign two centre backs – Filip Benkovic from Dinamo Zagreb and Caglar Soyuncu from Freiburg – at a combined cost of about £35m.

As far as Leicester are concerned, Maguire is not for sale; they signed him for £17m from Hull City last summer and he has four years left on his contract.

Leicester are expected to offer him a new deal after his impressive performances for England in the World Cup this summer.

BOATENG STILL KEEN?

Sky in Germany are reporting that defender Jerome Boateng turned down a move to Manchester United for football reasons but, we are told he wants to move to United and Jose Mourinho wants to sign him.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by JayKayMaybachz(m): 5:37pm On Aug 08, 2018
MAN UTD WANT BOATENG ON LOAN

Man Utd are keen to bring Jerome Boateng to Old Trafford – but only on loan, rather than on a permanent basis, SSN understands.

Jose Mourinho still has the German international as his No 1 choice recruit – but privately behind the scenes at United there are fears over a permanent contract for a player with a chequered history of injuries.

Boateng, 29, suffered muscle and tendon injuries over the past three Bundesliga campaigns, missing 27 games in total since December 2016.

With one day left of the summer window, Mourinho is running out of time to find a new central defender. Privately, United believe Harry Maguire is not for sale at Leicester and as things stand, Yerry Mina’s chances coming to Old Trafford looks increasingly slim.

Executive Vice-Chairman Ed Woodward has made funds available to Jose, but is determined not to pay over the odds in the current market.

ALEXIS WANTS 'BIG SIGNINGS' AT UNITED

Alexis Sanchez says Man Utd must sign players of Arturo Vidal's calibre if the club are to compete for trophies this season.

"At United we have to sign big players, with experience," Sanchez told Sky Sports. "Barcelona just signed Arturo Vidal, who is a great player and my team-mate from Chile.

"He is an example of the type of players we need to sign in order to win trophies and compete at the highest level.

"From what I've seen in training, Fred is a player who always wants to get forward, he is always trying to get forward and from a personal point of view I think we'll be able to combine well and it will be good for my game."

Since he became our manager, the board has always tried to get 'some' of the players requested. It is always like that for all clubs. All managers have at least 3 players on their wishlist for same role just incase. It is not peculiar to Mourinho and that should never be an excuse for failure. Liverpool wanted Fekir and got Shaqiri. Have you seen Kloop crying about?.

Did Kloop wanted just only ONE position tackled? Loserfool bought brought 4 players after last season ended to Anfield. 4 transfer targets which they pursued to take care of 4 positions that needed reinforcements. Mourinho wanted 4 positions taken care of but we succeeded with just one, Fred; Dalot is still upcoming and we don't know what to expect of him.


It would be totally unfair to blame the board for his failure as he has been backed adequately. The only window I feel he was let down a bit would be this current window.
But then, who would blame the board? The man seems to be losing the plot and no sane board will continue throwing money away without any ROI.

I disagree that it's unfair to PARTIALLY blame a board that was too FOOLISH to give Mourinho a new contract despite the fact that he's serving us useless negative football. It's not unfair to PARTIALLY blame a dumb board that collected Mourinho's targets list and didn't tell Mourinho ab initio that they won't "continue throwing money away without any ROI." They'd have spelt it out to Mourinho that he won't be getting the kinda support he was getting in the past two seasons. I'm still mad at the board for giving Mourinho a new contract and collecting his list of targets only to put up little effort in backing him.

------------Lukaku------------
Martial---Sanchez---Pereira

Did Lukaku play any pte season games. I know he would be training but would he really be fit to start? Same with Martial played just a game before leaving for the birth of his child.

Rashford might start upfront and Sanchez LW with mata behind the striker.

Just saying we are not really sure of the fitness level of Lukaku, Pogba and martial.

Where is Lingard sef?

I am not sure you really got my points bro so I will state them again.
1. Managers don't always get all the players they ask for.
2. The board has backed Mourinho adequately since he became UTD's manager.
3. The difference between what both Manchester clubs have spent under their current managers is not significant.
4. Mourinho should NEVER use the board as an excuse for any failure.
5. This season is the time for him to show people why he is the special one.

We are done for this season, especially for the first few games. That formation is based on whether everyone is fit. I really I'm not looking forward to our games this season if we are going to play like we did against Bayern.

1. No doubt about that. I wasn't saying otherwise.
2. Yes, except for this season.
3. I never argued that issue.
4. I wasn't talking about Mourinho blaming the board, I said that I'll lay some blames on the board for giving him an undeserved new contract but then not backing him adequately with some of his transfer targets . Me, not Mourinho.
5. He's nothing special, maybe in the past but not anymore.

Jose signed a new contract in January 2018.

Leading up to that moment he was someone who won 2 trophies in the previous season, had the potential of lifting the FA cup and qualifying for the UCL in the current campaign. His drab method of play wasn't that noticeable or had yet to cost enough points to be angry about it. Maybe the board thought it was a passing thing.

Immediately Mou got enough backing, he became comfortable and started showing his true colors. Knowing him and his past antics at different clubs, the board shouldn't have given him such backing or handed him a contract that gives him so much leverage.

Nwoke, I'd partly blame Ed and his woody team of managers too. But not for refusing to hand Mourinho a blank cheque this TW- I'd blame them for allowing him to have the comfort of believing he's got rights to a blank cheque even if he hasn't been productive with what he's bought already.

We won't play like that against the smaller teams. I am only worried about the lack of creativity whenever we attack especially against the smaller teams when they decide to defend in numbers. We may also be in trouble if they come out to play ball, especially when they move the ball fast

FYI

Transfer Window shuts at 17:00 BST for Premier League and EFL clubs, not midnight.
