do not rewirte the history. He was a very good defender, i can hardly recall his bad games. Maybe a couple of OGs, thats all.
The send off this guy is getting from fans compared to De Gea is a joke.
Surely this leads to Rapha getting his shirt and Mount will then take Rapha's number
Tomorrow someone in their right frame of mind would name drop him as a legend, you just watch.
Wish him well. No matter what, he had some good and memorable moments at United. Injuries and a lack of consistent game time ultimately lead to him becoming a bit of a meme but he's still lived the dream and also seems like a good lad.
Only from a noisy section of the fanbase. Par for the course though these days.
Very true. His career bums me out. (and totally understand he was over paid etc..etc..)
Back as an u18 coach.
Of course
Glutton for punishment this guy 
Disappointing that he couldn't even play at championship level.
Can't wait to find out from the caf why this is a terrible idea.
Yeah, shouldn't take long.
He’s rinsed us for enough money without still being on our books. Wouldn’t want him to give the youth any ideas.

Knives out for a man who hadn't even had 5 minutes in a role that few cafites understand what is required

No issues if it's a meritocratic decision. Lad clearly lives and breathes football.
Is he going to be teaching them the scuttling penalty-box header move?
Sure he's going to actually do OK, but it is funny considering his career here..

United looking after him when he's clearly been through a lot is something to be proud of isn't it?
In the grand scheme of things, it's a drop in the ocean financially and will help give him a foothold back in the game.

If i was him I wouldn't join in training.
I thought it was pretty obvious he was never going to play again, even at a lower level. His knee issues sounded very similar to what Ledley King had, where any movement resulted in bone grinding against bone and even walking was extremely painful as a result.
Best of luck to him as a coach.
Happy for him that he's found a new path forward, hopefully he will develop an aptitude for it and the kids benefit from working with him.

Professional organisation this one, not jobs for the boys at all.
Chance for Jones Evans this season?
Hopefully he can find some happiness in the role and good on the club for giving him that opportunity.
I'd agree but shouldn't we be thinking about the best coaching for the U18s over looking after a former employee?
He could be a great coach but chances are there's someone more qualified and deserving.
Imagine genuinely getting annoyed at this
More charity work from the club after the re-signing of Evans.
Yep, agreed. The other clubs never hire their ex-players to academy coaching roles.
Also keep in mind this may be something he's been doing in an unofficial capacity for a while, given that he hadn't been able to play.
Rachel Riley FC
Indeed. Getting the badges etc. Similar to Evra and so many others.
Why should we keep this in mind? I'd rather just react, you know, on a purely emotional level like some kind of child or small rodent.
His issue was injuries/fitness, not ability, is it your belief that fitness doesn't matter so much at Championship level?
Yeah, the Glazers do charity

No outside hire allowed as well.
I have no comment on his coaching ability, but Jones looked a much better footballer the last time he played in a competitive match than Maguire has the last three seasons.
