Baba, I don't know how we want to go about it this season o, no choice, I must watch my club play every single match, even booked for a live game at old Trafford, but man, it's scary. Our last 7 games of last season no make sense at all, if we return to that mess as early as possible in the new season, we won't make top 10 o. Those mid table teams will take turns grabbing 3-points against us.

Okay, I need to calm down, I agree. E go better.
I understand bro.

My only issue with OGS during this TW is the way Lukaku is being treated. I don’t blame Lukaku, I will be actively looking for a new team if I was in his shoes also.

They say Lukaku can’t play the fluid attacking set up and I wonder if they watch Lukaku in Belgium. Imagine the coach telling you you will be back up to someone you are clearly better than. Anyways season will start in the next 7 days.

Rashford is English Lukaku is not so what do you expect. Ole is a puppet to the on going agenda.

Lol. Eph12 took one look at Woodward’s Maradona dribbling antics and gave up on humanity.

Had Ed been a black man he would have come from Warri. The guy format solid well well.
If that guy was Nigerian, he would have been a legend for carrying out the greatest internet fraud in history

I don't believe OGS told Lukaku to find another club. I don't believe that

Well his behavior toward him says otherwise. You think if Inter are a serious club he won’t be gone by now?

Ole is happy with his Rashford.

I'm not seeing any behavior here. There's no credible report that OGS is trying to freeze Lukaku out, neither is he going to stop him from leaving.

At some point Pep was trying to freeze Aguero out for Jesus and it wasn't a secret.

But how does this thing even work?

OGS is the manager while Ed is the guy that negotiates the deals.

I thought the manager would have a style of play he wants yo deploy and identify players he believes can help him achieve that style which is supposed to help win or at least challenge for the title.

Now I believe Ed and Ole should have sat down to discuss. Ole tells him the style he wants and targets.

Then I believe OGS IS THE ONE THAT SHOUKD IDENTIFY WHOEVER HE WANTS AND GIVE LIST TO ED.

But its looking like na Ed and co dey dictate who should be bought or sold which to me makes no sense.

The case of swap deal with juv, the question is does Dybala fit into the style OGS wants to play? Ed can advice on cost of a player being too much which will make the manager identify a less costly player that still fits into his style. This is the reason the manager should insist on his own players because whether he gets his players or not he is the one that gets fired when things go south. If Ole is the one rejecting Lukaku, but identifying Dybala, fenandes and Maguire, get them for him.

I don't understand how some other person would/should dictate to a manager who he should or should not buy? I must be missing something here.

Abeg I no know anything make una wey know explain.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 10:52am On Aug 02, 2019
It's clear that Ole does not like Lukaku. He prefers Rashford to him, he thinks Rashford has more to offer. My question really is, what do you naturally expect from a striker? I'd prefer to have a striker that won't necessarily join others to play whatever fluid footie you wanna play, but is dominant in the air, and always inside the box to give you plenty goals, than one hensbrain.

FFS, there are 10 players on the field Na.

If Lukaku leaves, we must get a replacement. We cannot rely on the other strikers.

One thing I will always respect Lukaku for is his professionalism. If you are waiting for him to go to the media and talk bla bla bla, you will sleep there.

It’s open secret that Ole doesn’t fancy Lukaku, to be fair to Ole, every manager has the kind of striker they want but trying to rely on a striker that hasn’t hit 15 goals a season over a 20 goals striker is writing letter to ruins.

One of our major problems last season was lack of goals, unless we get in another striker (not looking likely with Ed) then letting Lukaku go is a very stupid decision. Rashford cannot lead us anywhere.

I don’t believe Ed will go into the market and just buy anyone he likes. Obviously the coach will give him areas that need strengthening and the list of players he want.

Ed is majorly to blame for the rubbish that’s happening in the TW because I believe Ole is not stûpid enough to think the squad he has is enough to go a whole season. When Ole was talking about rebuilding, this is not the kind of rebuilding I was expecting.

Season starts in 9 days, las las Ole will be the fall guy. Let him keep saying the TW has been good, I don’t pity him.

Assnal that didn't have money to buy players have probably spent more than us in this transfer window. We just allowed Pepe that would definitely improve our RW to go just like that.

FFS what do those clowns even see in their Maguire sef? Which kind thing be this one na? We should have lost all our preseason matches sef

Lmao grin cheesy People get bad mouth o.. See as them finish Woodward here

Can just see us wasting the last week chasing Dybala unsuccessfully, our plan B Fernandes signing somewhere else, and us being left holding our dicks at the end of it.

Woodward strikes me as the type of guy who would fall in a bucket of tits and come out sucking his thumb.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by diji04(m): 2:31pm On Aug 02, 2019
Woodward: ‘Hi Bruno, would you like to sign for us? ..... no? What’s that, you’ve signed for Spurs? Oh right I see.’

1 day later

‘Hi Paulo, would you like to.... oh I see, you have zero interest in joining United. I see.’

1 day later

‘Hi Harry, would you..... oh £95M? Nah.’

Don't forget so soon that Lukaku had a lot of dry spell last season. He was insulted and dragged a lot by United fans. Only some of us insisted that the problem wasn't the striker but the lack of creativity and laziness in the team generally. While we have improved, I don't think we are ready yet. Whether Lukaku or no Lukaku, as long as we still have Lingard, Matic, a sulking Martial and Mata starting for us, we are on a long thing. Hopefully Martial is back and those other ones are glued to the bench. Until then we can talk about the striker

BREAKING: Manchester United have agreed an £80m fee to sign Harry Maguire from Leicester City, Sky Sports News understands.

Darmian ain't part of the traveling Squad to Cardiff..... Same as Lukaku.

Manchester United have finally agreed on a fee with Leicester City for the transfer of defender Harry Maguire. Player now free to undergo medical & agree personal terms.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 3:36pm On Aug 02, 2019
We have to clear 2/3 Deadwoods among our CBs before the General TW closes. IMO...... Darmian, Rojo and Jones/Smalling must be sold.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 3:38pm On Aug 02, 2019

Harry Maguire will sign a five year contract at Manchester United. He asked to leave Leicester and strongly wants to join.

Bruno Fernandes and Dybala next. 7 days to go. Enough time to bring in more players.
