Manchester United vs Athletic Bilbao (Sun 6th August, 16:00 UK time)

Harry needs to go for his own sake. He looks like a panicked player and I think it's too much of a focus on him.

Never thought he was as bad as some said. Price wasn't his fault and he seems to be calmer for England.

International football is a lot slower and it helps having Rice and Phillips who are defensively sound in front of you.

Thing is will Southgate risk playing him if he doesn't play for us and when he does makes constant mistakes. He has up to now, but Harry is getting worse.

Fernandez is a weird player in that he’s brilliant on the ball, but not explosive enough to be a flying touchline fullback nor is he quick enough to be a Shaw type technical progressor that can be relied upon as a third CB. It’s almost like someone should have moved him into midfield years ago but at this point it’s too late.

I’m not sure what his best role is.

I would agree with this. He looks more like a mid than a LB. I think he s a joy to watch with the ball at his feet. His pivot is something else. But to say he s on par or better than Malacia in this position seems crazy to me.
 
Bilbao have brought on a wizard. Not sure that's allowed?

Exactly. Being saying for a long time that he's surely mentally affected by all the negative focus on him as a United player. Poor guy's a walking meme.

He's a much better footballer than what he's showing in the United shirt, and for his own sake and ours he should move to an (upper) mid table club like West Ham asap to redeem his career and reputation.

Southgate doesn't like change. The fact Phillips who never plays for City keeps getting picked just shows that Harry will remain. Even Henderson will get picked.
 
Harry just do the fecking basics in the second half. He makes it almost impossible to support when he has a brain fart every 10 minutes.

I think Donny has looked great this preseason. He has been thriving in that role he has been given. Sancho has also looked class, would like to see them both involved more this season. Fernández is another player who could potentially be given some gametime if he stays at the club.

Van de Beek did nothing in the first half. If that's him thriving we really do need to get rid.

His spatial awareness is very good. Question marks over his fitness and physicality.
 
A lot of these young lads could definitely have a role to play for us next year.
 
Don’t care what anyone says, Pellistri deserves minutes next year, he oozes talent.
 
Pellistri can be a part of this squad, I still stand by that. We need someone with his directness as an option on the right side.
 
The most expensive CB has no clue on how to defend that he better off signing up as the next presenter of Blues Clues.
 
Pellestri makes a great run while sancho just admires him and doesn’t move for him
