afrodoc2: Martial has always been a dangerous player. The issue with him is if he can put his body on the line and work his socks off. Ole should please let him know that. Yesterday I saw Tuchel yelling at a chelsea that he is too lazy for his liking. Sometimes players are not lose focus on the pitch especially if thats their default setting, the onus lies on the Manager or anybody on the bench to let them know. Fergie does that a lot 1 Like |

Hahaha. This Dortmund vs Sevilla match is the perfect example of monkey dey work, baboon dey chop. After all Sevilla’s gra gra, it only took one chance for Erling Haaland to bring them down to earth. I will be the happiest United fan if we manage to sign Haaland. |

Rashford on the left. Haaland through the middle. Sancho on the right. Martial on the bench. We can only hope. |

Trevor012: The truth is there are very few defenders better than what we have at the moment. If you stick Lindelof in City, Barca, Madrid or Juve you will think he is the incarnate of Cannavaro. Football currently places little emphasis on defending, so we should spend our resources on better midfielders, forwards and fullbacks. |

CapitalCee: Pepe is old skool. One of the last defenders that made it purely on their ability to stop goals and not about passing ability, skill or technique on the ball. Pepe had 18 clearances. Mad ting. I don’t blame you for making your statement. But you need to watch 1994 World Cup Final, or pretty much any knockout game that Baresi played in. I actually believe that 1994 World Cup Final is the best performance i have seen period (defensive or offensive) from any footballer. Ever. He was a major reason that it turned out to be the only World Cup final to end goalless. 2 Likes |

Manchester United is pleased to announce the promotion of John Murtough to Football Director and Darren Fletcher to Technical Director, two new roles that will further strengthen the club’s football operations. 3 Likes |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 1:20pm On Mar 10, 2021 |
John will have overall leadership and responsibility for operations and strategy across all football functions, reinforcing the strong foundations already in place. This appointment builds on the work John has already undertaken in recent years, working closely with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and the rest of the football staff to create the structures, processes and culture to deliver sustained success on the pitch. This has included successful overhauls of the club’s Academy and recruitment department. Darren will work closely with John to add technical input and direction into all football and performance areas. He will focus on a co-ordinated and long-term approach to player and squad development, helping maintain the integral link between the Academy and the first team, aligned with Manchester United’s values and culture. As Football Director, John will work day-to-day with Ole to align recruitment and other strategies and to ensure that the first team has the best-in-class operational support it needs to succeed. Ole will continue his role in the recruitment process, supported by extensive scouting and data analytics functions that will continue to report to John. Matt Judge will also report to John, with a new title of Director of Football Negotiations. |

Great. Woodward has given us a new scapegoat. Murtough it is. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SyIvalord: 1:31pm On Mar 10, 2021 |
Oasis007:I was genuinely surprised but pleased when I saw this news on the United app. Woodward be like; There! Have your technical director and shut it! |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 1:33pm On Mar 10, 2021 |
Murtough started his career as a sports scientist at Everton under former Manchester United manager David Moyes. He worked his way up to become their Head of Performance before leaving in 2012 to become Head of Elite Performance at the Premier League. He has become a close confidant of Ed Woodward having helped put the pathway in place which has produced Scott McTominay, Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood and other top talents. He has overseen the United academy as well as leading an expansion of the scouting department and network. United have signed several talented youngsters in recent years with Murtough believed to be involved. For example, it was reported he travelled to Norway with French youth scout Mathieu Seckinger to watch Hannibal Mejbri as a 16-year-old before they splashed the cash to sign him from Monaco. According to Training Ground Guru, Murtough has also headed up special projects, such as developing a data science strategy similar to the ones use by rivals Liverpool and Manchester City. |

Woodward na criminal. He has arranged to have one of his stooges be the scapegoat. We should give Murtough a chance though. He did a great job with the academy so he just might be able to get things done. |

afrodoc2: Finally, you guys will free Woodward and the board. They have given you a football director and a technical director. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 1:44pm On Mar 10, 2021 |
Murtough’s new role will focus on player recruitment and ensuring the first-team has the operational support required. Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will continue to have input into the recruitment process along with United’s worldwide scouting and data analyst network. They will report in to Murtough, who will head up the football operations. The new roles mean Woodward's involvement in transfers will be reduced. The recruitment department headed up by Murtough will decide on targets with Solskjaer having the final say. Murtough will now be the first point of contact for clubs who want to buy or sell players with Matt Judge, given a new title as Director of Football Negotiations, continuing to oversee the process of negotiating transfer deals and contract renewals. 1 Like |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 1:51pm On Mar 10, 2021 |
nitrogen: What is your point? Does that absolve them of blame over all those years they amateurishly wrecked our recruitment? Appointing a competent football director/technical director is the barest minimum expected from them. They get no brownie points for doing the barest minimum of their duty. |
