Manchester United Thread..The Final Chapter of 17? (MOD WARNINGS IN OP)

Won’t be long now till Sky have a microphone in Jose’s face so we might get a bit more to chew on.

They didn’t sell him to City for £60 million because they couldn’t replace him with Thomas Lemar in time.

Edit: I meant last Summer in my original post. Maybe the wording is confusing.

Yep thats what confused me. I thought you were suggesting they could still get a transfer fee this summer if they waited to sell him then!

Hopefully this transfer doesn't stretch out to a deadline day dildo in the face...

No Alexis


4-2-3-1 again I think

Sanchez not even on the bench? #joseOUT

No Mkhitaryan in the squad

Rayne Wooney

The Sanchez move hinges on Mkhitaryan, Arsenal said to be extremely keen on us not including him in the deal.

Or Romero? Injured?

I'm expecting a spectacular finish or 2 from Lingard. Along with a Spanish Dave clean sheet, and goals for Lukaku.

GSPfan

No Mkhi at all. Interesting.

Jose says his head isn’t in the right place. Well thats true cause we’ve all suspected it was up his arsé for a long time.

I think so it was O'Hara and Pereira who went with De Gea to Dubai for the warm weather training I believe.

Strongest team bar Bailly in for Smalling imo. Should be beating these handy. I wonder which of their players is going to have their best game ever to prevent that...

His head has been turned by Arsenal???????? more like his stomach I'd say.

I hate Smalling and Jones together, but should not be a mad issue against a relegation team.

Jose said in his press conference that Mkhi would be playing.. he was with the squad in the Lowry earlier and now all of a sudden he is out..

Did he mean next cup game or did he mean tonight? I thought he meant cup game at the time regardless of follow up speculation.

Yeah interesting alright after Jose said he would play.

They are decent enough together I think. As decent as any defense with Smalling in it can be.

I thought he meant tonight although only read the quotes rather than saw him speak the words.

Still don’t get all the Smalling hate.

Thought he said something like “train Saturday, rest Sunday, play Monday” with regard to Mkhi

i doubt he meant actually start though... probably 20 players staying in the lowry before a game

I was hoping for an interesting discussion on MNF about what Sanchez could possible do for utd but I got was load of whinging and crap

Ya ever here the nonsense from carragher. Im actually sick of people putting clubs up on a high pedestal as if they have morals from somewhere all of a sudden.

They bloody paid over 100 million on wingbacks induring the summer.

Here’s what Mick posted earlier today

M!Ck^ wrote: »

Sounds to me Miki is not part of any deal yet

"Earlier in the press conference, Mourinho admitted Henrikh Mkhitaryan is set to play against Stoke when asked about the Armenian’s future and reports that he may move away from Old Trafford.

“My approach to players is that every player has a price,” the boss said. “It doesn't matter who he is, it doesn't matter the level, the prestige, the status. I think every player has a price. I'm not the kind of blind manager. Blind in the sense of this player is untouchable, that this player we can never sell.

“I think every player has a price. So when the transfer window is open, it's also open for any club that is interested in our players, then it is up to us to make a decision: yes or no. It's up to us to decide what we think is the right price.

“But Mkhitaryan, he played the last match in the cup and probably will play the next one. So it's a little bit the same in relation to other players who are involved in this gossip of the transfer window. He is our player. He's a very good player. Saturday he is training, Sunday selected and Monday play."

I just find he's prone to a brain fart or two a game. He'll be solid for 88 minutes, but then have 2 minutes where he's utter dog****e and cost us a goal.

Between Pilib's tweet and now Mhikis absence maybe we see some breakthrough tomorow!

He's the most prone to brain farts defender that United have. Least assured on the ball and lacks game intelligence. His best seasons came playing in the rigid LVG system where he would look good because he could just sit back and not have to worry about making smart interceptions or positioning himself correctly.

I don't think he's a bad CB by any means, just not top quality.

I think he’s our second best CB behind Bailly. Streets ahead of Rojo and Blind. Much better than Jones. Much better on the ball than he’s given credit for.

Couldn’t disagree more about the Van Gaal theory.

Carragher can be decent every so often but he reverts to pro-player bolloxology when he doesn't know what he is talking about.

Like the look of that team

The Smalling bashing is way over the top

Everyone is prone to an error, he's experienced and is excellent on the ball

adox

Sounds like Mikis days really are numbered going by that Jose interview.

GSPfan

I’m hoping for that to be a 433 instead of a 4231. It would be depressing to see Pogba back taking passes off of Phil Jones in our own half.

He can't say he hasn't been given plenty of opportunities

He was given plenty of chance too in his preferred position this season

Too weak, too easily dispossessed and some dreadful utilisation of the ball has led to this

I'm sad it didn't work out as when we signed him I believed he was one of the most exciting signings in years but sometimes it just doesn't work out

Wish him well if he does go

Has Sanchez been paraded yet?

Hopefully the ref gets at Crouch early for his fouling.

Stephen Ireland is still with Stoke?! I assumed he had fallen down the leagues.

Martial could have shot there I thought
