  1. Mason Mount's Many Misfortunes (please don't make another waste of money post)

    I think there's an element of overwork. He puts in basically an Ugarte level shift whenever he's on. I imagine if he takes it a touch easier on defence he'd be less likely to get injured .. let's see what the recommendations from the physio are. I think he's very eager to prove himself. Got the...

  2. Marcus Rashford | 2024/25 Performances | loan to Villa

    I'd be more optimistic about Villa paying his option to buy than Barca putting up any money at all.

  3. Manchester United vs Real Sociedad

    Can we take Simeone on a one match coaching appointment? Dive, cheat, use the dark arts, be like Atleti for a bit. Just win.

  4. Mason Mount's Many Misfortunes (please don't make another waste of money post)

    I'm struggling to follow the logic here. Are you one of the 3-4-3 haters and saying the system itself is broken so he has no chance of success? Or do you think there's no difference between Mount's role in Ten Hag's 4-2-3-1 and Amorim's 3-4-3?

  5. Mason Mount's Many Misfortunes (please don't make another waste of money post)

    I'm back on the hype train boys, waiting to get hurt again. Hope he just replaces Eriksen and doesn't get stuck in the Ugarte role.

  6. Amad Diallo | 2024/25 Performances

    Disagree. He can't really control the game like a proper regista. Maybe he will have a Scholes-like evolution but he's currently not that player. Despite his workrate, you really need someone more physically solid in that role. Like a Partey if not a Rodri or Carrick. There's no one else in the...

  7. Jadon Sancho - Chelsea (loan) watch

    I'm sure Amorim won't shy away from enforcing standards. Sancho wouldn't be around for very long if he goes back to his fifa playing ways and not turning up for training / not putting in a shift. You can also choose to loan him out after giving him half a season under Amorim. I'm generally not...

  8. Jadon Sancho - Chelsea (loan) watch

    The debate really is if we should subsidize his salary for him to go play somewhere else or have him around as a rotation option. We'll potentially save 6-7m by flogging him on loan. He showed enough flashes of quality at both Chelsea and BVB that I think there's at least a rotation caliber...

  9. Jadon Sancho - Chelsea (loan) watch

    It's definitely the right thing to do but I'm still pissed off about it. Let's see .. I'm kinda hoping this is just public pressure on Sancho to make him reduce wage demands. May I suggest he'll actually be alright in one of the inside #10 roles? We have a nonexistent attack and any incomings...

  10. Jadon Sancho - Chelsea (loan) watch

    I think it's standard practice in contracts but they'd probably have to pay up to avoid signing him. My guess (and I've been banging on about this several times in this thread) is that the future wages with Chelsea are not agreed and they don't want to pay him 250k p/w to sign him on a 5 year...

  11. New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built - design visualisation released

    Whatever additional value United gain as part of the process. It went from a 500m club --> 5b club over 20 years or so. I think a 10x improvement isn't happening but who knows how things will evolve. EDIT To flesh it out a bit, the three major revenue streams are TV rights (PL / CL tv $)...

  12. New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built - design visualisation released

    Okay I take back my circus tent statements, I think it looks quite cool. The interiors are magnificent, the plaza looks great, the night time shot looks absolutely bananas.

  13. New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built - design visualisation released

    This was my first thought before it was explained to me that it's supposed to look like the trident.

  14. Geovany Quenda - Summer 2025

    I'm happy to trust Yoro in the RCB role. The LCB is a bit more iffy but Heaven seems to have the right ingredients even if he's not quite ready yet. Evans and Lindelof will leave and we renewed Maguire so it's not a stretch to think Maguire / De Ligt are being planned for the CCB role and we'll...

  15. Geovany Quenda - Summer 2025

    Do you think a forward line of say .. Delap, Amad, Bruno backed by Ugarte and maybe a fairly robust playmaking CM has enough "duel winning ability"?
