Roux

Might as well give him a shot - whats the worst that can happen. I would still prefer someone we can trial and maybe hire full time in the summer - but i guess its a weird part of the season to get someone in.

Congrats! Highlight of the last 10 years or something!

Another repost! Bloody hell.

Surely you have better banter than that?

Blanc would be alright for the rest of the season.

Fuck me Carrick - you worked under Fergie, get rid of Matic and Fellaini! Bring back some pace, I reckon they will bring Giggs in, but i would love Eric Cantona.

he's gone - i was just about to post that i bet something happens this week.

I just think we need to focus on speed - speed in our play. We will win nothing with Fellaini, Matic, Lukaku, Mata etc. Everything is too slow and getting slower. We are delaying the inevitable here - just bring someone like Zidane in who can work with the team for the 2nd half of the season and buy who he needs in summer. I would sell Matic, Fellaini and Mata immediately. I can't fully blame Jose though - some of these players are cowards. Fair play to Rashford and Herrera, the only two players who show some fight in the team.

Well that's the end of our UCL run!

Missed the last few games - been on holiday with the Missus. Why did Lukaku think becoming a bodybuilder was a good idea? I love what Sterling did - fuck the media.

Time to bring someone like Zidane in. Nothing has changed or will change. Matic and Fellaini in midfield is the worst i've ever seen.

I think he's proved he's a United player - his consistently good performances against the top team constantly get ignored by you. Obviously he's been injured alot this season but you can see why Jose loves the guy. All the players mentioned are quick and fairly good on the ball. Hardly tall players than can't move! Players like Dalot are Fred are good players that need time to adapt - no different to someone like Bernardo Silva who struggled to get into the City team when he joined. Both players have clear quality. Pobga, Mata, Lingaard, Fred, Sanchez, Martial, Rashford can all do what you described - they are creative players that can make things happen. As a team, it's nowhere near as effective as City at the moment - which is why i think Sanchez is a better option than Lukaku up front. Those city players have the freedom to play because they have a good set of defenders - United don't. The results have actually been pretty decent since the West Ham defeat. Beat some tricky teams - this game was always going to be alot harder because of the Juve game for us - it really showed on the pitch. We effectively played 2 of the best sides in Europe (both away) in the space of a few days and did okay. The next few games should be winnable and most of the teams above us play each other.

Herrera was brilliant against Juve and changed the game against Bournemouth - its just your usual spouting nonsense again. United have some of the quickest players in the game - none of the players Jose bought (except Matic) are exactly slow! Lukaku, Pogba, Liderlof, Baily, Fred, Mhiki, Dalot are all pretty quick. Too me United look tired after playing 3 games in a week - and that's a valid excuse, City were much fresher after their UCL home game against a weak team. Losing our best player made a big difference too.

because the transfer window is shut? Couldn't give a shit about the City result - was always stacked against us with the midweek game and the injuries to Pogba/Sanchez. You need to have your best team against a team like City. Agree Matic has been really really poor this season. Herrera is a far better and dynamic option.

Absolutely. One of our greatest players ever. Got us on the edge of our seats from day one to the day he left. Won everything - FA Cups, UCL, PL - and was pivitol in all of them. First Ballon D'or winner for the club since 68' when Best won it. Every fan would have him in their top 5 or 10 in United's history. Hardly missed a game too in 6 seasons - averaged around 45 games per season which is incredible.
