    Had to laugh at the scousers. I’ve been saying to my mates for ages that they should be taking their foot off the gas in the league and concentrating on the cups. They’re 25 points clear for crying out loud. But no, they play the reserves in the League Cup and FA Cup, still play their strongest team in the league and now are out of the CL. They’ve literally got nothing left to play for. They could win the league next week or so and then have nothing to play for for 2 months. Fuckin idiots! They could have won it all this year if they wanted. Just an average premier league team now. No better than Leicester. Hahaha! Come back when you’ve won a Treble. Then we’ll talk about great teams.

    The issue is 4 managers since fergie retired all with different visions, philosophies and styles of play. With that comes different players to suit each manager’s vision.

    For example, Jose bought tall powerful players like Matic, Zlatan, Bailly, Pogba, Lukaku. There are rumours he wasn’t behind the Fred or Sanchez deals.

    Yet another chance to catch Chelsea and we don’t take it.

    Fred great again. Only positive at the minute.

    Martial is not a striker. Neither is Rashford. We’re not playing to his strength. Plain as day that he doesn’t like the ball played into feet with his back to goal.

    Why is James playing down the middle? He should be hugging the touchline for 90 mins stretching the play.

    Shaw doing fuck all down the left. Willian’s is twice the player.

    Lindelof is shockingly poor. Doesn’t jump for any header.

    Mata the only player who tried to create space.

    The less said about Andreas the better. Does he know he’s not actually made it? He only plays because there is fuck all left in midfield who can play. Thankfully Matic will be back when we play next.

    So easy to defend against for wolves as everything is infront of them. No one wanted to run at them.

    I’m laying Utd every week in the league when we’re evs or less. Making money hand over fist at the minute.

    Ighalo? Jesus Christ!

    What’s wrong with Greenwood?

    £100k a week and £4m fee I’ve read. He’s 30 FFS!

    What a shit signing.

    hookeddevil – If Grealish has a £45M release clause we should definitely be looking to activate it in the summer. They’re not that common in England though.

    Good news is we have Bruno in, meaning Andreas and Lingard can be binned off.

    Bad news is if Matic is out we’ve just got Fred in midfield meaning Andreas will probably come straight back in.

    Really tough one to pick. I’ll predict with my heart and go 1-0.

    I don’t think Grealish is over rated because he’s English. Think hes the exact sort of player we need.

    He’s still 1/20 with the bookies to join us. It’ll be a monumental fuck up to mess this up from here.

    Sign Maddison and Grealish in the summer and we’ll be good to go 😉

    Lukaku was shit for us. Touch of a rapist. May have an okay goal ratio but how many goals did he cost us because he lost possession in the build up? He was static upfront. Same as martial.

    Bruno Fernandes is 1/4 with the bookies to join in Jan. Rio talking about it on Twitter. C’mon, get it done!

    The problem isn’t whether Young accepts Utd’s offer, its that we made an offer in the first place. To offer him a 12-month extension on £110k a week as a 3rd choice left back is ridiculous!

    If it was a pay as you play contract or a seriously reduced basic wage then fair enough, but to maintain the wage of £110k is seriously worrying.

    Rumours of Donny van der Beek on Utd’s radar this January. He’d be a good signing, yes?

    We’re being linked with Grealish and Maddison. I’d be happy with either or both of these players.

    What happened to the Bruno Fernandes rumours?

    I’m willing to persist with Ole. Is it his fault we have a midfield of McTominay, Fred, Matic, Lingard, Mata and Periera? I’m sure he wanted to sign midfielders, but its not his job to get the signings over the line.

    I don’t get it with Maguire. He was a top defender at hull and got better at Leicester. How has he gone so shit so quickly? He should be bossing that back four. Building confidence from the back. Popping up with the odd goal from a corner. But nothing.

    Distinct lack of movement upfront. Lost count how many times Fred and Matic have picked the ball up with no option infront of them.

    We need to press higher up the pitch.

    Get Mata or Greenwood on for Lingard.

    Shaw is looking shite too. Offers nothing going forward and can’t defend at the back.

    The less said about Maguire the better.

    De Gea needs dropping to show he’s not invincible.

    This is awful. Matic is the only player of note so far. No movement upfront. Need mata to replace lingard. At least he pulls defenders.

    Lost count how many times maguire has played the attacker on side. £80m down the drain.
