Dembele was good but that Mor lad was something else. They had better not bring in that average Schurrle into the squad to stiffen the kids of playing time. |

capricornian: It is important to play well in preseason games but it's not important to win it. The backward passes have reduced and you can see the attacking zeal again. The defense is just poor. It's not yet time to vex. Sip Lipton. |

GBR1: you are the one who needs to read the excerpts i posted from Mourihno's interview and explain how we would get the best outta Pogba (with our current setup) As regards Mata, I fail to grasp the role of the little fella ( Probably as a backup "Hole-man" or an inverted winger" ) in relation to Pogba's best Role in a formation we arent likely to play ( based on the obvious inferences one can draw from the manager's quotes thus far) Btw, this was what our manager had to say about Mata....
if you want to compare the above statement to what he said about Rooney, you are on your own. Instead of you to just admit to the fact that you have given us another important reason not to sign Pogba, you are grasping at straws. |

Dadehmola:You failed to prove that Rooney would always play as 10 (he's also a 9) and you've also failed to prove Rooney must always start. You've proved absolutely nothing! Listen to yourself again; So you think Mourinho playing Rooney as a 10 is a reason not to sign Pogba? It's embarrassing to claim to that, and i stand by that. |

Leyqute: Of course I know and am not talking based on this game alone but I just can't wait to get rid of some of these players I consider average |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Dadehmola: 5:00pm On Jul 22, 2016 |
GBR1: Oga - if the manager has said our captain is gonna be a very important player for him & the reasonable assumption is that Pogba, Miki & Ibra would be in our starting lineups, give us an "unembarrasing" analysis of how we would get the best outta our potential 100m (220k/week after tax) signing....aside combing the whole of Europe for a top (and probably expensive) Defensive Midfilder to partner him in a pivot. And to think you came out guns-blazing to annihilate us with facts, only for you to give us another excellent reason why we should steer clear of Pogba |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Diademk07: 5:13pm On Jul 22, 2016 |
GBR1:What do you want me to say? You think Pogba is the best we can get right now because the better ones aint available but I'm still of the opinion that a readily available Oliver Torres even with his little experience, has more potential and offers what our team needs at the moment than Pogba. O. Torres only needs a platform to showcase his talent and horn his skills, just the way Psg offered a platform for Verratti regardless of his little experience and today, he's the best young midfielder out there. And it's not as if Torres has no experience at all, he was Porto's best midfielder while he was on loan at the club. If he had been Porto's player, he would have been set with a ridiculous buyout clause by now and could have even gone to City already. Pogba on the other hand, is a luxury player who could only fit into an already well oiled team. He's not even as good as Yaya who's physically a beast yet with all his physical attributes, he was always found wanting in the CL. This at least tells us that physical attribute isn't the be all. For all Pogba's huge physique, menacing black colour and similar playing style to Yaya's, he's no beast like Yaya nor a deeplying playmaker. 1 Like |

I think a 4-2-3-1 formation will be able to accommodate both Pogba and Rooney and hope they give their best, where Pogba plays as a B2B midfielder in the pivot and Rooney plays behind the striker. IMO a 4-3-3 or any other formation with both on the field would most likely be a disaster. I could be wrong but Mourinho will want to give Rooney who most fans feel is past his best a chance in the beginning of the season and I hope that does not put the entire season in jeopardy except Rooney is a different person this season. Man City, Chelsea and the others will not be waiting for us to make mistakes and adjust. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SIRcumalot: 5:26pm On Jul 22, 2016 |
codedguy1:Pogba is coming in as our best player. the team should adjust to him. if playing as box to box or a "10" is his best position that is where he should play. we can't spend this amount of money on this ninja and not play him where he'll cause most damage. I think we probably have to sell Schneiderlin. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SailorXY: 5:37pm On Jul 22, 2016 |
SIRcumalot:Sell Schneiderlin for who na? He's one of the few CM we have with pace. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SIRcumalot: 5:56pm On Jul 22, 2016 |
SailorXY:despite what I said above I think Pogba is coming here to be a box to box type CM. we need a proper DM to partner him. Schneiderlin isn't that guy, am seriously confused about the type of player Morgan is. plus he'll fetch the most money. |

@ dadehmola: you don criticize too much so let me know your thoughts on this matter... Let's scrap the players Jose has already brought in & want to bring in. If you are given £200m for this summer transfers with your knowledge of the squad needs, who are the guys you'll bring in? {realistic targets} cc afrodoc2 cc elampiro |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SailorXY: 7:37pm On Jul 22, 2016 |
SIRcumalot:perhaps but not this season. We have two veterans in Bastian & Carrick. Not sure how many games they can be fit to feature in. The rest are Fellaini, Morgan, Herrera, {versatile Blind} & Pererra {academy}. 38 league games bro, who's to know how it's going to go down fitness-wise? Besides if Pogba joins he should be deployed as attacking midfielder & nothing else. Let him bother less with defensive duties, it's not by size. The guy & Toure Yaya are more or less the same in style. |

To add to this, I can't believe majority of the guys on here were lambasting LVG for his failure to finish 4th and winning the F.a cup with that poor ugly squad at his disposal. Infact, he did a miracle with that squad |

SailorXY: Lol @ "Criticize too much" -Since there aren't too many decent CBs out there, I probably would have gone for Bailey too (hoping that he comes good). Varane would also be on my radar. -Mikitaryn is another player I woulda signed (considering his quality & contract situation at Dortmund). -As for the C.F. role, I woulda looked to sign one of Aubameyang Jamie Vardy Harry Kane (if Daniel Levy no go do anyhow ) Edison Cavani (yes, the same Edison Cavani wey you hate die ) -In CM, I woulda looked to partner Miralem Pjanić with Schederlain while keeping tabs on happenings as per the purported pogba-Madrid move (the idea is that Kroos or Modric would be surplus to requirements if it happens) -Any decent winger with pace (I probably would have trusted the judgement of club scouts if they talked about an unknown player) |

SailorXY:somebody is going to grumble about playing time you know that. maybe mid season. I like to think that pogba will be played as an AM but I've my doubt some which have been raised above. seeing his performance in a Box to box role for france in the two games I watched didn't gimme that much confidence in his ability in that role. there Is a workaround, and I trust Jose will find out. |
