Man Utd Thread:

Essentially you believe the overweight consistently awful white English left-back "maxed out in life" while the goalscoring black man is lazy and was given too much money too young.

Gotcha Ron 👍

Jesus. More than a whiff of Big Ron vibes off this one.

Seems Taylor and the wobbler are either unwilling or unable to address my posts asking them to explain what they mean.

Quite telling...

Quite telling? Lad I'm working.

Paul Pogba is a most commercial footballer. The epitome of "it ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it". His focus is on his brand, not his career. His inability to maintain a consistent performance level means he can't currently attract a better brand (club) to partner with. Which is why the transfer tittle tattle has dried up. He will only go somewhere if it makes him more marketable. So he has largely given up, and instead of being inconsistent, he's now unbothered.

Funnily enough I would at least praise him for having focus on something. Martial is even lazier. Too much money too young for that one.

It smacks of McCarthyism when you can't criticise players for fear of being branded a racist.

Luke Shaw is a key member of the lazy camp too. But a player of his limited technique and versatility maxed out in life in getting a long term Man Utd contract. Even if he gave a Henderson-style determination to proceedings he'd still be an average left back.

Whereas Martial and Pogba both have the physical and technical attributes to rank among the best players in the world. What's stopping them isn't a series of managers, it is themselves.

Hold on. I suggested that Shaw got more or less everything he can achieve in this game (a huge financial reward) and this contributes to his laziness. Just how are you misinterpreting this to fit your agenda?

I do wonder about you.

Is this the kind of unprovoked abuse which is tolerated round these parts?

Very unbecoming behaviour from a referee imo.

Meanwhile racial stereotyping goes completely unchallenged by the rest of you. A sorry state of affairs.

Why do you think people are talking about you?

Best of luck to Chris Smalling, a decent servant over the years. Sometimes threatened to be a very good player

Expressing my opinion is not looking a bite. Feel free to ignore it.

Pogba gets a hammering in the press for his attitude, being a "cancer" inside Utd etc but all reports or interviews from players, insiders etc always state that he's a positive influence in the dressing room. His agent and family are definitely a pain in the arse in the media. I think there's definitely an undercurrent of unconscious racism in how the British press treat Pogba (and Sterling).

Decent pro a good move for him.  Few if any of Ole targets delivered. Pure PR to not confirm the Cavani deal until the last hour of the deadline.

Everton, Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea all had much better transfer windows leaving Uniteds task to finish top 4 more difficult.

Despite the £90million or whatever bids, did the club ever really have any intention of spending that sort of money on Sancho or anyone else this window?

As a few talking heads have pointed out recently, serious transfer discussions rarely involve rejected bids these days. Clubs employ negotiators who chat behind the scenes and don't waste time offering money unless there's a very strong chance of acceptance.

United seems to have had a summer of rejection - can their transfer negotiators really have been that inept, or was it all just spin to keep supporters onside for as long as possible?

Ur hardly a reliable barometer, with ur "he's shite" mantra 

[NAG1]

There doesnt seem to have been any serious attempt to sign a CB. So that obv means that either Ole is happy with what he has currently and told to make it work, or that the club are happy with what is there and he was told no.

The Cavanni one reminds me a bit of the Zlatan deal, bit of a gamble but if it pays off every one looks so clever pretty much like the Zlatan one and if it doesn't they hold their hands up and say he was on a free.
