patrickmuf: I am not being overly aggressive. It's just sad that you want to make a case for Martial over Mbappe when the evidence points to the fact Martial was infact an unknown buy to Many United fans as well as the English press. In fact, Martial was so unknown and underrated a song was made for him.. Incase you need the lyrics.Here it is Tony Martial came from France, English press said he had no chance, 50 million down the drain, As Tony martial scores again! Na Na Na… You can argue this if you want but Martial was money spent on an unknown signing. That you even use him playing first team in a squad that got to the quaters of the UCL says all about how you rate players. As for the Balon d'or clause, no dispute the club valued his talent enough to include that but would you compare his value and popularity in france to what Mpabbe was? Why people questioned Martial's talent, no one questioned Mbappe because it was clear to see this was a true, consistent talent. Why do i even think all those clauses were Monaco's way of stripping us of every cash they could get knowing we were more money than sense under LVG 1 Like |

eph12: Everybody has different styles of player. Mourinho must not tow the same line as pep. For your info he is more successful. Fergie said according to Dwight Yorke that mourinho sholud not change his style of play because it has served him. If Fergie can endorse his style who are we to say otherwise. We are just sounding as if, Pep has won 5 EPLs in 5 consecutive years. After Arsenal went unbeaten in 2004 they never won again till now. Mind you I am only replying you because you do make sense with your points. |

BlueAngel444: Nobody is blaming City and Pep because they are achieving.. its because people make it look like Pep just came and city became an instant hit. Dude had to buy and it's paying off so why is Mourinho asking to buy to get to his target now a crime? |

CapitalCee: exactly,very useless manager,we should try to get pochettino who's an attacking player who would turn rashford to erikssen,would dramaticlly improve lukaku ball control to that of berbatov...after all he wasn't afraid to play against city... or better still we buy arsene Wenger since he's perfect for managing funds and plays very entertaining football...or y don't we get klopp who his attack is so sharp that even when his team is leadin by 5 goals,there's still hope for a comeback... mourinho must go..he's too defensive abeg..how can he not attack with Herrera blind darmian rashford et al |

joeace2020: Am struggling to get your point o, so Mourinho did not have the chance to buy his type of players right? Something is definitely wrong in here, I don't get it! Someone spent over 300m buying and the excuse now is he didn't have chance to get his targets. Wow! 8 Likes |

patrickmuf: Thank God you brought this up. How would Mourinho release players when he's been given a limited budget in an inflated market and he can only fix a few areas of the pitch with it. A manager cannot let go of players if he won't be getting replacements. Mourinho is probably showing this frustration because obviously Ed isn't working along his agenda. You can't sell out up to 6 players for small sums for that matter amd expect to get in 3 or 4 and challenge for a season. Look at City's bench. Good enough to walk into our first team. Is it Gundogan or Bernado Silva or Aguero at times that won't make this our avergage team? |

joeace2020:How on earth am I making a case for Martial against Mbappe, I only responded to a poster who claimed Martial was unknown and pointed out that he was a Key player for a relatively underrated Monaco team that knocked out Arsenal and went toe-to-toe with Juventus only narrowly losing out in the quarters...Compare that team to that of Mbappe and you'll agree they over achieved by reaching the UCL q/finals...If you didn't notice him, it doesn't mean he was unknown...No way is a club of Man Utd caliber going to spend 50m+ for an unknown... |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 11:15am On Dec 28, 2017 |
Funny thing is both managers have spent almost the same amount on players. Can we now say that the other was smart with his acquisitions or what? This is crazy mehn! 2 Likes |

nitrogen: I am not making excuses for him.. He's bought a lot and should deliver and in all honesty 2 trophies first year, 2nd in December this year, through to next round in UCL is delivering but we could do more. I am saying we have overspent on dross from moyes down. Miki in Mourinho's current squad is showing to be one. Lukaku is heading that way. Bailly now is becoming a crock. Maybe just maybe this were not the number 1 names on Mourinho's list. That Lukaku transfer somehow tells me so. It was too sudden. We might have gotten the number 1 names for the same or a little above the price of these if our transfer panel was up to scratch. |

dubylhover: You are right. Sack him, we need Klopp, he is fearless, he was leading arsenal 2-0 and went all attacking and after the game, he was able to salvage an entertaining 3-3 draw and neutrals are happy, unlike the coward Jose who got a very boring 3-1 victory, although world class Damian nearly caused a penalty. He is a coward, why ask Spanish captain Mata and key midfielder Herrera, to mark an opposition player? England first choice Centre back smalling and Injury free Baily and Jones are better than Ramos, Otamendi and Varane. Look at poch he attacked City endlesslessly and lost 4-1 and everybody is entertained, he was the main contender 2 seasons ago who finished 3rd in a 2 horse race and put pressure on Chelsea last season.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 11:26am On Dec 28, 2017 |
elampiro:yes he has spent more,but by how much? By roughly 60M. You forgot while Pep was buying low key players at bargain price, Mou was busy breaking transfer records all over the place. Pep will get five lowkey but quality players with the money Mou spent buying Pogba and Lukaku alone. It was cos u didn’t spend as much as City reason u lost to Chelsea, Huddersfield, City, drew at home to Burnley parked bus against Liverpool I could go on. Abeg stop whining. |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by patrickmuf(m): 11:29am On Dec 28, 2017 |
joeace2020:I said you can argue for or against and I was not mincing words, now, let's see your combined City-United 11 and the players you have on the bench, please oblige me... Back to the crux of the matter, who said our funds for transfers were pegged at 150m or how are we operating on a limited budget...A coach that splashes 75m plus add-ons on one player doesn't sound like one operating on a limited budget, for limited budget, check Pochettino at Spurs...And it's well documented that Mou said he wanted 3-4 players and on several occasions he admitted that he'd be very okay with Ed getting 3 of his targets and the 4th was gonna be the icing on the cake so where you're getting your lines hinged on limited budget is something we'd love to have here...We got 3 his targets and the 4th was outrageously overpriced for his age and talent. You can't be complaining that Monaco fleeced us for the amount quoted for Martial whose best years are ahead of him and on another hand criticizing the club for not paying over the odds for a 29/30yrs old winger whose is best operating from the left where you have Martial and other who can comfortably do a job there, Rashford, Young, Mkhitaryan, Lingard etc |

joeace2020: This is getting interesting o. So, you think that the players he bought might not have been his number 1 targets. Chief, trust me, those players bought by Mourinho are his type of players, jambody, strong, players. Funny thing is, they are very good players, man management and tactics are killing the team. Am saying you should stop saying that he didn't get his targets, he may need more money, after all Pep is looking to spend more in January, but to say that he's spent less or he couldn't get his targets. Forget it, abeg. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by CapitalCee(m): 11:37am On Dec 28, 2017 |
Neymar1095: He will turn neymar to a left wing back, Mbappe will player centre back and Cavani will man Mark opposition striker. This will be his formation vs Tolouse, Areola, Kurzawa, T.silva, Marquinos, Kimpembe, D.Alves. Maxwell, T.motta, Neymar, Mbappe and Cavani with neymar and Mbappe playing wing backs. |

joeace2020:In their defence, Mou is making it sound like enough money wasn't spent by the club, (real money 300+m). What exactly does he want to buy, Bale, Griezmann, Dybala, Hazard. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Neymar1095(m): 11:44am On Dec 28, 2017 |

BlueAngel444:Most of the guys you mentioned were signed last season. Keep that aside, if you can read and comprehend, I said most of his new signings are actually sub's. Still, my main point was that his tactical change in playing KDB and Silva in midfield was what brought about his recent success. Tell Oasis007, he can save his stupidity for another time. I am quite busy now to start pointing it out. 1 Like |

BlueAngel444: He wants to buy Bale that has lost it completely, buy Perisic that is above 27 years........The two wouldn't cost him less than 120m pounds. After buying, the said players go ahead and underperform, then Bros would come back and say he has tired legs, he needs to buy fresh legs. The guy is simply clueless! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by joeace2020(m): 11:47am On Dec 28, 2017 |
patrickmuf: Really? Martial, Rashford, Mikitaryan and Lingard can comfortably do a job on the left wing. Let's keep pushing players to parts of the pitch that aren't theirs and saying they can do a comfortable job there. On the transfer budget thing, i first saw it in a MEN article were paddy Crerand was quoted as saying Mourinho was given a £200 million budget for his 1st year and £150 for the remaining two years. I have checked our expenditures for 1st and 2nd season and it seems to follow. How else would we explain the reluctance to pay Perisic's fee while persisting with the player for so long as if there weren't other options out there? |
