you also forgot about malacia who's injured as well.


honestly it's going to take them a few more years to get the right squad balance to compete for trophies.

imo i think there starting team is ok it just needs more depth and a clean out of the overpaid dud players that are holding them back...

Ah Malacia. He definitely would've saved United ...

the point I've been making, even last year when they were 'flying', is that they rely too much on individual brilliance rather than collective strength.

That comes down to the manager not having any idea how to set up a team.

They can bring whoever they like into the club, with Ten Haag at the top they'll do absolutely nothing.

I actually agree with you though. The starting team is OK, and if they were all fit they could beat more teams.

But, even when they've had full strength or close to full strength they've done very little.

They've spent a fortune in the previous windows. An absolute fortune. And they look worse!

Mount. Shit
Hojland. A little bit better than shit ... for now
Onana. Worse than shit
Amrabat. Shit (was a loan but supposed to bolster their midfield)
Jones. Shit

That's even getting into previous big name signings

Antony. Epitemy of shit
Casemiro. One year being decent now shit
Martinez. Good actually. Not great but good
Erikson. Shit

How are they going to get better when they've got such shit at the club, a terrible manager, and such a massive overhaul of the playing squad?

Your boys are doing well mate.

I didn't think you were capable of this form. Fair play to you mate.

well we've just lost martinelli to injury which is a big blow for us but hopefully nothing major and back after international break.

least we only have Brentford next at home and can rely on trossard or Nelson on the left

You’ve got to laugh at these stat comparisons used to have a dig at United. The red billion pound bottle jobs are the gift that keeps on giving.

Arsenal have been quite lucky with injuries tho and it shows on the field.

It's a real battle for the premiership this year I've got to say.
