Bredbury Blue Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Reasons behind why you didn't sign xyz Man Utd: Why did they not sign anyone and is there trouble ahead for Jose Mourinho? https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/45133827 Bits that caught my eye in particular: "Speculation surrounding a move for Tottenham's Toby Alderweireld rumbled on for much of the summer. It turned out to be unfounded. United never made a bid for the 29-year-old Belgian. As one club source said: "We ended up in a situation where if we had done a deal, we would have been swapping our fifth best central defender for another fifth best central defender." Under the circumstances, United concluded there was no point." And "The one conversation between Woodward and Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy this summer centred around the availability of Martial and Juan Mata. In both instances, Levy was told no."

Bredbury Blue Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I'm with you on the comments on Maureen's personality and management style but his track record as winner of trophies can not be doubted. Hasn't he won 2 trophies in 2 years at ManU - isn't that better than ALL Premier league managers bar Pep? So do you want a winner or a nice guy in charge? Know which i want.

I have no time for Mourinho as a person but in fairness he did add in the same interview "His game (Shaw) was very complete.If I forget the goal, which was an important goal for us,the (Shaw) performance was very complete" Sounds like a ringing endorsement to me that Shaw may get a regular run.Young can move to RB to replace Darmien and Rojo is expected to go to Fernabance on loan. Rather than cherry pick one sentence quote the lot rather than what suits an opinion. Pogba got the armband,maybe an olive branch ,up to him if he accepts. I just would like to see him get his head down and do what he did against Leceister every week,its all very tiresome tabloid fodder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought that Darmian was on his way and that we had signed a new RB? Rather than cherry pick one sentence quote the lot rather than what suits an opinion. Well in my local newspaper that was the only sentence!! All the same my opinion of Maureen won't change as he is all over the place most of the time and about as positive as a dead battery...…...and it is reflected in the negative style of play; sadly!

Snow Leopard Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Luke Shaw is a great player. At least he can cross a ball from the left flank in open play. Ashley Young cannot. I think the lad just needs to work on getting stronger and fitter so he is less prone to injury. Giggs was prone to injury for a long time as well don't forget.

Lads had 1 decent game in 5 years. Steady on. I think he's still got a great career ahead of him if he wants it.
