In that 4-2-3-1 setup, the two attacking midfielders will be Pogba and Lingard/Mata, with Pogba playing as a Box-to-Box midfielder while Lingard/Mata will be stationary with less defensive duties...

McTom is definitely going to arrive late in the box because of possible rebounds and breaking counter attacks.

I really wanted Bruno in that Lingard/Mata position because of his attacking prowess.... Dybala too would have been fantastic there but boy doesn't want to leave CR7.

I have a problem with playing Pogba as a box to box midfielder. When he starts exhibiting his lazy non challant attitude, it would be disastrous.

A box to box IMO must be strong energetic player that's runs all over the field. I don't know pogba to be that. That's why for me not having that strong player to partner Mctominay is a big worry.

That he was the highest scoring forward does not mean anything if he can't play a certain way the manager wants his team to. Pep knows this, Mourinho knows this, so does every other manager in this world.

Same thing applies to Herrera

I’m not sure you understand me so I will let it slide.

After they promised Pogba that the club is ambitious LMAO cheesy cheesy cheesy

I remember when we were trying to pick our team two months ago. We had Rabiot, Ndidi, Pogba, Bruno, Sancho and Pepe in that team. What happened? cry cry cry

A certain coach has said that he's only interested in young British talent,hence Maguire and bissaka...don't expect any foreign signing,but no these set of jokers would perform miracles this season because a certain clueless manager says so

The point is that with them in the team, we were struggling to draw matches. Without them we may face the same thing, so how is that worse off?

Remove Lukaku goals

Remove Herrera contributions

If you still can’t see how we are worse off then we were as at the end of last season, no need.

You want to bet it with me, OGS will go before Ed unless someone else buy the club from the glazers.

If you think the Glazers will fire Ed, you haven’t being paying attention.

He's the best option for that position, who else?

Even if Bruno comes magically, Pogba will still be the best option for that position.

TW is closed for United already. Good luck to the Lads, best of luck to the Manager and his Staff, fun-filled week in week out for the Fans.

Rebuilding Process continue..... hopefully with Sancho as main Target next Season.

Imagine selling Lukaku and announcing only Mandzukic at the end of the TW. undecided
Even the Mandzukic couldn't work out.
Hmmm!
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by DeadPresidents: 4:28pm On Aug 08, 2019
Just mad we didn't get any midfield reinforcements. If something happens to Pogba and McTominay, we're fecked.

God knows I can't go into a match against City with Matic and Fred as the midfield. . . If I see that, I'll just stay at home and play FIFA where I can send them to the bench.

Fred: “My first season was a bit difficult. The first year is always a little bit difficult, a year of adaptation, and, moreover, we had a season that wasn’t too strong in terms of the Premier League."

Fred: "Now I’m more used to the league and I’ve been working hard. I’ve talked to the manager and backroom staff, and this season is going to be better than last season. I’m sure it is going to be very successful.”
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 4:41pm On Aug 08, 2019
Fred: “I’m really happy with the affection shown to me by the fans and I feel immense affection in turn for them."

Fred: “I’m always going to strive to do my best here for them wearing the United shirt, to please the fans, because this set of supporters deserve it, they deserve our affection and lots of success.”

I know we all like Martial and we are trying to be optimistic but playing 2 positions is asking for much, don't u think?

Calm down
Should I also remove Rashford goals too? I'm not making case for anybody, just telling you to calm down. It was obvious that Lukaku wasn't a fit in the team last season. I don't see how that is supposed to change this season. Ole wants the attackers to be very mobile, can Lukaku be? If Lukaku is moved on to introduce players that can, how is that a bad thing? Ole probably has a mandate to build a team that can compete in the nearest future, so I am not surprised about Lukaku moving on.

What I am angry about instead is the lack of replacements not pretending to love Lukaku when we actually didn't want him in th team just some months ago

Who had more goal contributions in the EPL between Rashford and Lukaku last season? Who played as the striker more? You don't know ball. Maybe we should remove Rashford contributions too so we will know whether your own table ends at 6
