The reaction from arsenals fans if we signed Sanchez would be hilarious I think a cheeky offer would be well worth it to test there resolve

I hope that Shaw and Darmian are back fit and in contention for the game at Anfield in mid-October. Mo Salah will potentially tear Daley Blind's soul from his body, Mahrez almost did it at one stage yesterday.

I think Darmian is fit at the moment actually - I would have him in the team over Blind at LB anyway.

Another August passes.

Another August Kane dosnt score in.



Who gets dropped though if we sign Sanchez?

Play Sanchez left wing, Mhiki central and Rashford/Martial right wing.

Or leave it as is and Play Rashford/Martial left wing, Mhiki right wing and Sanchez behind Lukaku.

**** it, lets just sign him. £60m will get him.

Spurs could be in for a really rough season, can see an early CL exit and a 6th or 7th place finish.

Yh he is the easiest player to drop. No point getting our hopes up. We aint going to sign him

I'd adore Sanchez, but he seems to have his heart set on the reunion with Pep. I think he chooses City over us if he gets the chance to leave.

I'd still like us to force the choice.

So would I. But United won't be public about it, especially if it means losing a transfer battle with a rival,like City.

This around the same time you said fellaini was not good enough to be a United squad player.

Salah is a good player and he will probably have a good season for pool but I would leave it until end of season and judge what's what then we see how good he is after 30 odd games or so into the season and a bit of fatigue sets in and one or two players out inured.

With inter at the time looking for 48m for perisic we could have signed salah for 10m less and he is probably a better player

Also says we have bid £92 million for Bale.

Some morning waffle to enjoy with the coffee:

"Manchester United have launched a £92million bid for Gareth Bale.
That’s according to Spanish outlet Don Balon." (Who da fook are them guys)

"Barcelona are preparing an audacious bid to sign Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford if Luis Suarez leaves next summer.
Spanish outlet Don Balon claim Barcelona are ready to start afresh next summer by making an audacious bid to sign Marcus Rashford as part of their new look attack."

^@ Barca....

rashford will not go, tso thats bull****, united gave up on bale, he plays left so overloaded already, griezeman is our next signing but even then that position is packed, would hate to see mata leave tbh, one of the few bright signs during the bad days

Bale has played central, and right, plenty of times for Spurs, Real Madrid and Wales. Him powering down the right and cutting in onto his left to shoot is a very viable tactic and weapon.

Talk of a few clubs going in for Lemar again this week - but you have to think Monaco will fight tooth and nail to keep him given all the other sales. United should be offering to match any bid accepted for him though. Versatile and a great crosser.

LOLtastic talk that Arsenal are willing to pay Asensio's release fee too - no chance he would leave Madrid for them BUT that is another one United should be all over if there is even a hint he would be willing to leave Madrid this summer. Again, I don't think he would be - but United should be making sure we are in the hunt for him, just in case.

Have to think Sanchez's team will be pushing hard to get him out of Arsenal. Another player we should be doing all we can to sign, if there is a chance of him leaving. He may prefer to sign for City over us, but we should be forcing him to make the choice, if he is leaving, rather than just accepting defeat without a bid.

Is lemar right or left footed? I would love a united team that could quickly cross from either side, woul;d love for sdhaw to finally prove himself. I remember the days of irwin giggs, neville beckham crossing from everywhere, was great to watch

I'd prefer a United team that pretty much gave up on the early crosses altogether tbh. It doesn't work.

He's left footed, plays mainly on the left but can play on the right or thru the middle. According to L'Equipe this morning Liverpool bid 72m+8m bonus for him

As much as i dislike city, that red card is mad

You just scored the winner and celebrate with the travelling fans and its a red

Mike dean is such a pleb

Checked on Twitter after it happened, saw Mike dean officiating and thought "yup"

No way he's letting a last second winner take away from his headlines. Absolutely brutal referee.

Learned over the weekend the "celebrating with the fans" yellow card is actually a massive grey area, where there is massive discretion for the referee. So the fact it was the scenario it was and he booked the player just goes further to add evidence to the feeling he is an attention grabbing, terrible referee.

The commentator talking about City showing title winning mentality in their third game because they were blessed with a winner is laughable. To me it shows how they are struggling early doors.

IT's why I don't buy them being title favourites and all the pre-season "experts" and predictions claiming City being the strongest.

Same as pretty much most seasons bar a spell under Ferguson, our squad has been equal if not better rounded. Sure they might edge it in the attacking areas (might) but their defence is disgraceful for the money being spent, and I don't rate their midfield at all.

On paper, think we have the stronger XI and squad. Whatever about their firepower, similar to us, it won't bail you out of everygame you play if you can't defend and leak goals.

I know we are only three games in, but I'm even more buoyant and confident about the season ahead. Our rivals all have problems where as we are looking slick in the opening stages. Still feel the "big" games are going to be a big test of not just the team but the manager also, and I'm fascinated with what he will do. Will always maintain you win the league by avoiding silly dropped points, but big games can provide a massive momentum push or a drop moral to the floor (EG. Arsenal v Liverpool yesterday)

Putting out a positive, dominant performance against a rival could send a shivering message.
