As i said there not of that level yet but there the brightest prospects coming through and it would have been a good boost for them to kick on, or even put themselves in the window for a loan move.

But yh happy with goss going, another center mid

I think only Rothwell would have had much of a claim, though I thought Gribbon might get a call - very young, but thought the club might 'treat' him on the back of signing a new contract in the summer, there was a good chance of him leaving.

The others mentioned I can see an argument for but there are probably better off doing a proper preseason and playing proper minutes for the reserve fixtures.

Fellaini should be there for something different...

well he suspended for first 3 games of the season, so its hard to see where he fits in now with the signings we have made

I'm gonna have an guess here that Valdes could be injured and stayed to rehab rather than axed from the trip.

That or he is in talks with another side. :pac:

Doesn't matter all that much anyways - talks break down then he can fly out at any stage to join the squad.

Yh the u21's pre season starts tonight, most of the lads i listed were in the u18's last season.

Be nice to se them do well in the u21's now if there promoted up.

Having sold Kroos last summer, and Schweinsteiger this summer I can't see any way Bayern would consider selling Muller - there would be absolute war with their fans. No way Muller leaves, none.

Multipacks of Muller are on offer in Dunnes now,that might be the nearest we'll get to him............Unless Di Maria goes the other way.

Do u know if anyone has the u21 game? Mutv only showing highlights tomorrow.

At. Madrid are reported to have rejected a bid for Oblak; not seen anything saying who the bid is from, but I've read we are interested in him as DDGs replacement.

Giggsy11

This made me very very happy. Fantastic midfielder to have in the team. With Herrera, Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger opponents won't have any time on the ball. From softest midfield to hardest midfield.

Interviews with our new schmidfield duo at half 3 on mutv.

Delighted to see Sam Johnstone heading off on the tour. Really hope he gets some game time.

Mitch Connor

this day 2009


No value in the market.

Today: Depay, Schweinstieger, Schneiderlin and Darmian head off on tour.

Adamcp898

Only see rumours linking him with Chelsea, but if his buyout clause has indeed been reduced to €30 million then I think Pedro would be a cracking bit of business.

jayo26

Take a look at @juanmata8's Tweet: https://twitter.com/juanmata8/status/620599057656979457?s=09

Thats the way to do it guys we can count on mata to feed them with positive energy.

What's the best way to watch the tour matches? Last year the MU website let you pay a few quid to watch the games on the site but I can't see any info for similar this year.

God I would of love Schweinstieger 2-3 seasons ago

He could still do a good job for us but bloody hell he was some player 2-3 seasons ago

Mars Bar

Shaw and Depay have really hit it off!

If his world cup finals performance is anything to go by, then we don't have worry this season.

The paddy crerand show is on mutv to tonight, i cant see it been live as its only pre season

homerjay2005

anybody reporting yet what the craic is with Valdes?


one theory ive seen is that we will use him as negotiations with Valencia for Otamendi but that could be complete porkies.

Reece James, Nick Powell also left behind - i assume both are injured.

the team is air-bourne by the way, this is their flight if anybody is interested/bored enough to follow their progress!

Glad MUTV is in HD these days aswell, makes the 4am viewing time abit easier on the eyes.

So what is everybodys go to snack for 4am games?

I have some toblerone and cheetos at the ready, might need to get some more

jayo26

Alot of the under 21s could be better served with the actual under 21 squad it was the same last year if im correct mcnair or some of them was with the u21s it didnt stop lvg from using him.

Id say hell be off at some point, pre season games wouldnt be the same without him going mad at half time at all the subs coming on.

It happens every game

Really wished we had of landed him after South Africa when he made his midfield transformation complete, he was my player of the tournament and he is what got me into watching Bundesliga, and who led me onto eventually seeing Kroos.

I wouldn't be overly concerned about his appearances last season, he had ankle trouble that was down to a tackle he got, not like it's age catching up on him. He came back and was excellent.

Could be the steel and leadership the team has been missing. Could be a real chain reaction type signing, I certainly hope so anyway.

Roquentin

Schweinstieger will add steel. can see himself carrick and schneiderlin as the MF three in tough games

You didnt miss much just the usual positive interviews but one thing i noticed that the 4 new signings have all good english its nice to see even with darmian it maybe something that lvg was keen on but its nice to see concidering slencia still cant do interviews in english.

Not sure if the San Jose game is in the international Cup Though

The Kickoff times are not kind in terms of late night viewing unfortunately

homerjay2005

I'm going to be 16 hours ahead of the US time zone for 2 of those games and on a 23 hour trip for the 3rd 😭😭😭😭

Some serious signings for ye guys, I imagine ye're pretty happy.

A RB, a perhaps a striker and a CB, and ye can really challenge on all fronts, I would imagine.

I had edited the post to include both CB and RB, but yeah, had forgotten about Darmian.

Even better for ye! :pac:
