Would he choose Utd over, say Barca, if it's known he's available?

Why on earth would he move there to sit on the bench? Why would Barca pay so much for him to stick him on the bench?

I mean, the spot will open up for him once that rumored deal for Suarez to United comes to fruition.

Any chance of Greizman in Jan probably not.

Be patient, he'll be arriving during the summer . I'm more concerned with adding some steel to the defense and hopefully finding another Bailly.

Lord TSC

Starting XI vs West Ham: De Gea, Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Darmain, Herrera, Pogba, Rashford, Mata, Lingard, Ibra

Subs: Romero, Blind, Fellaini, Schwinensteiger, Rooney, Young, Mkhitaryan

Fantastic to see Bastian back in the squad.

Bastian and no Memphis. Final nail in coffin

I was just using Barca as an example of a far more attractive option to Utd. Swap any big club that is regularly challenging for european and domestic titles. Utd aren't anywhere near that stature these days. I don't see Greizman choosing Utd over one of those clubs unless Athletico are paid ludicrous money like Pogba.

And I gave you an example of why Barca wouldn't make sense.

There are multiple factors, Madrid might be attractive as Ronaldo is on the decline.
Based on him being a United fan and the wages we could offer we'd be in a very competitive position.

Players follow the money, of course Griezman would sign for us. We've a history of over paying for players in the last few seasons and we pay some of the highest salaries in world football, no reason why he wouldn't sign.

Lads anyone know what non-uk channel has the game?

No, playing quite well. Could be a couple up

Please not another keeper motm award

beno619

Really need to start putting teams away.

We're dominant but West Ham could easily sucker punch us.

Hopefully we won't be kicking ourselves over those missed chances later on. Rashford and Ibra should have scored when both clean-through, very disappointing finishing from both in those moments. Ibra's goal was beautiful though, nice to see Pogba pick up a PL assist, his first I think, and a peach of a pass it was.

The team overall are playing some nice stuff though, again, but really need to start hitting the net in the PL.

Utd only have themselves to blame if that happens. Finishing should be better.

Yes, he is a fan of United, he said that in 2013 to Marca, and now is saying he wants his next club to be in the Premier League, and he wants to play club football with Pogba.

Pogba was saying how he loves Manchester and didn't hold any bad feelings towards United and even said he was impatient. It was being said by Pogba last winter, and we have been told it was last year that talks started about bringing him back.
I think Griezmann is doing the Pogba strategy, he knows he will be at United next season.
Would not be surprised if Memphis is sold and the number 7 is there for a true number 7.

I would not complain if United signed Virgil Van Djik to partner Bailly in defense.

The team is coming together nicely and going the right way. Just need the results to show it, and that will happen.

Can Jessie please learn to tackle ffs.

Changes needed now
Lingard off / Miki On
Rooney for Rashford

Dwarf.Shortage

First time in a good while I've seen Rooney warming up and been happy about it. Him and Mhki for Lingard and Rashford would switch things up nicely.

How can you leave Lingard on there rather than Mata?

Takes Mata off and leaves Lingard on
WHY

Carrick or Basti for Ander too please.
