Manchester United Discussion

[Takezo]

Alex Telles from my club might sign with United this offseason. He's a decent left back but don't think you will sign some Alex Sandro type player. Telles is limited in many aspects, he can't win a 1-on-1, he's kinda dumb deciding and that's why he crosses from every spot of the pitch a lot of times just because he has someone in front of him blocking passage. His numbers are really inflated as almost every goal he scored was from penalty and most assists were from set pieces as Porto almost only scores through set pieces. I think it's a good player for 20-25M, any more than that it's kinda too much for a player with clear problems.

If he’s only scoring pens, he’ll fit in well.

That is quite obviously a pretty shit way to have handled stuff from Woodward's perspective and for Ferdinand to experience, but what would have stopped him going in to the club over the next few days and saying those goodbyes to staff around the ground/training ground? Players/staff don't immediately just down tools at the final whistle on the final day of the season. 

Not being able to say goodbye to the fans when out on the pitch though is shit, admittedly.

 Jose Mourinho : "It's difficult to play against Manchester united. Am not saying they are a difficult team to play against, but it's difficult because even after 90 minutes the Ref can call you from your dressing room and tell you that he has decided to give Manchester united a penalty so your Goalkeeper must dress again and go face Bruno Fernandes . You can only celebrate when you get home, because if you still around the stadium it's possible they might get a penalty even at full time "

He’s lucky it’s not Liverpool they’re facing. Penalty Kings since ‘92.

Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata has reportedly turned down a staggering £18m-a-year offer from an unnamed Saudi Arabian club to remain at Old Trafford.

The former Chelsea man has found it hard to break into the team under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and has been restricted to appearances in the EFL Cup in the early stages of the 2020-21 campaign.

Mata's deal with the Red Devils expires next summer, although United do have the option to trigger a further year, but the 32-year-old is supposedly intent on remaining in Manchester despite a lack of playing time.

AS reports that an unnamed club in Saudi Arabia offered Mata £18m per year to leave Old Trafford - up from their initial offer of £11.5m - but Mata has rejected that proposal.

The report suggests that Mata wants to stay on at United as he is confident about their chances of winning silverware this season, but the midfielder has struggled for starts over the likes of Bruno Fernandes, Mason Greenwood and Daniel James in recent times.

The Spaniard has netted 50 goals in 257 appearances for the Red Devils, who mark their return to Premier League action with a trip to Newcastle United on Saturday evening.

Manchester United have triggered the one-year option on Paul Pogba's contract, extending the midfielder's deal until 2022.

The 27-year-old France World Cup winner would have been out of contract at the end of this season.

Pogba has started all three of United's Premier League this term, including the 6-1 home thrashing by Tottenham.

During the international break, Pogba said a move to La Liga giants Real Madrid would be "a dream".

Giggs has form for this, nobody seems to remember but it was in the papers about him punching his girlfriend in the 1990s. The Manchester United PR machine is so good that it's basically been forgotten. 

Nicky Butt, Andy Cole too. Is there a culture of wife beating at Old Trafford?

Stuart Downing and Jon Flanagan at Liverpool? Is there a culture there too? No, of course there fucking isn’t. Every team has morons playing for them.

Flanagan and Downing are not treated like golden boys by our media. You're a protected club, always have been. Hopefully people see what I've been saying for years now.

Nothing, which was my actual point. It has nothing to do with the clubs, but the bellends that kick footballs.
