First game of the season and we already have two match day threads. Football is back.
Rosenborg vs Manchester United (Mon 15th July, 17:00 UK time)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Yeah and Henning Berg as well. Good to see old faces.
Have they got any players that are not playing in international tournaments though?
City normally use their first 5 PL games as preseason as well.
Sure. Grealish, Haaland and of course, Kalvin Phillips.
It’s what preseason is for.
7 of the starters are English, Brexit FC.
I am all in for this one. Let's see which gets the most pages. Game on!
And Mount played in the Netherlands. Orange FC
He isn't very highly rated by many of those who frequent the youth forum. Has been around the u18s and 21s for a while now. He's in the Gary Neville mold. Decent all rounder with a nice cross.
Harsh on Neville.
Interested to see how Casemiro looks in preseason. He is a top pro and must know he looked poor at many times last year, He should have worked on fitness and tweaking his game somewhat. If we can get another few decent seasons out of him, in rotation with others, it helps our rebuild a lot. The Saudi links appear to have gone cold.
Gary stop underselling yourself
Rosenborg trolling with Sweet Caroline.
Yea I don't think he's any special. Can play a lot of different positions though. Has played across the whole backline last season I believe. I think he's only ahead of Amass as he's a bit older and is a bit more developed physically.
Excited to see how Williams and Wheatley play. Both were incredible last season for the u-18s. Williams does appear to have a bit of Rashford about him which I hope he improves on. Had games where he did feck all and then pops up with a goal. He is two-footed though so he has that going for him.
4-2-3-1 again?
So Jim hasn't sacked the social media guy who puts the line ups in numerical order? INEOS out.
Sancho didn’t make the bench. He’s been training right ?
He was already confirmed to not be involved for this game. He will be available from the next game.
Feels surreal watching Ruud down there coaching Rashford.
What a PR jippo. No wonder why all Norwegians support English teams instead of their own.
A big MUTV tradition is the MUTV women just ask random people "favorite player? So meaningless.

30 goals incoming.
“run”30 goals incoming.
Casemiro captain. Guess he’s staying
my heart is full30 goals incoming.
Anyone know where Amad is?
I won't be too critical as he's a young lad but don't get your hopes up.
Probably the opposite.Casemiro captain. Guess he’s staying
"pass"30 goals incoming.
Individual training programs. Same reason Antony, Lindelof, Maguire and couple others were not involved.

You see that blind alley there? Don't go there30 goals incoming.
Trolling and trolling. There's a United fan singing on the pitch. They have bent over backward for United, if anything.
30 goals incoming.
“ you can’t park here “
He stayed in Manchester with a few others
Forgot how hard it is to watch the build up on MUTV. Christ.
MUTV's coverage still awful. 
30 goals incoming.
It was played over the PA during warmup
Zirkzee's biggest impact will be getting the best out of Rashford IMO.30 goals incoming.
Is that fletchers son on the bench ?
It was not trolling, it was them bending over for United and English people.
