Manchester United Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2016 - Mod Warning link in OP 20/3

The teams away form has been shocking. Down with Stoke, Bournemouth and Crystal Palace. The only thing keeping United in touch with the top 4 has the points picked up at Old Trafford.

Liam McPoyle · 01-05-2016 4:11pm

Meh, another nail in VanGowls coffin so I don't particularly care.

jimmytwotimes 2013 · 01-05-2016 4:15pm

As expected, we were all hoping for a City/Arsenal slip-up knowing, deep down, that United weren't going to capitalise if it did happen.

Europa League next year, reason enough to get rid of a manager at United. Otherwise we accept that's good enough.

Not nice to see Memphis bottling that challenge with Schmeichel near the end.

Summed him up. Rojo and Memphis reminded everyone today as to why they're not long-term prospects at Utd.

Some reports on Twitter that Van Gaal grabbed a sky reporters hair and asked how he liked it, when asking about Fellaini!!

god I hope thats true, he'd be sacked straight after that

Lord TSC · 01-05-2016 4:34pm

I'd be waiting to see the context; if it's playful, then there's no point getting all aggravated by it.

Yep. There's a video of it now, although grabbing is a bit of a reach.

Any chance of a link?

There's a small video clip of it and he is being interviewed and just puts his hand up to lightly tug the reporters hair and says something like "your hair is much shorter and I'm sure you don't like it".

Haven't seen the full video but looks much ado about nothing.

adox · 01-05-2016 4:39pm

Ok here is one to get you slightly annoyed. Van Gaal reckons that was Utds best performance of the season.

I'd have preferred if he elbowed Geoff Shreeves

Otamendi at fault again.

Bret Hart · 01-05-2016 4:58pm

2-0 get in. Mane.

Unearthly · 01-05-2016 4:58pm

What a goal.

Oh yessss

Too early to moan about the chance we threw away earlier? :pac:

Lord TSC · 01-05-2016 5:00pm

Jaysus, its a rollarcoaster following United at the moment.

City look dreadful. Minds clearly focused on the CL.

Cantona's Collars · 01-05-2016 5:00pm

Rooney showed again today he's not a midfielder,dropped deep and continually played the ball wide to the right.Zero threat from him when he was in decent positions outside Leicester's area.
Did well to charge back to tackle Albrighton near the end though.But that isn't enough.

Rayne Wooney · 01-05-2016 5:01pm

Lads we were never going to win 4

A draw and 3 wins was always going to be the best we could hope for so we simply have to win the next 3

Southampton doing us a favour which means if Arsenal get at least a draw it's in our hands

To be fair, with the situation Pellegrini finds himself in I'm sure he isn't bothered either way about top 4 and is totally focused on CL and who could blame him.

As well as being United fans, we are also Arsenal fans for the next week, c'mon Welbeck...

Nalz · 01-05-2016 5:05pm

Southampton need to finish the job
We need to win all 3 games
Arsenal need to not lose to City
Liverpool need to lose vs Villarreal or in final of Europa

Long shot tbh

Just on the last point Liverpool need to win it and City have to win champs league so that one can be taken out

Oh so if we finish 4th, City don't win Champions League and Liverpool win Europa....we still get into CL?

Oops, c'mon Southampton...defend better than that!!!

94 minutes, 0-0, Welbeck through one-on-one......chips it into Hart's hands.

A draw would actually do if we win our games, if Southampton win of course

We won't if we continue the trend of pass,pass,pass,get in range for a shot,pass sideways,go back a bit then give it to Martial and hope for some magic.

markc91 · 01-05-2016 5:32pm

Not sure how to link it but look what Lvg said to bbc when asked about Fellaini........Its on the match of the day facebook page

jayo26 · 01-05-2016 5:33pm

So bloody frustrating all season we get in touching distance of making progress and fuk itt up. The amount of points threw away this year is criminal.
