Man Utd Thread:

Does Greenwood really need a kick up the arse or just the understanding that he's a 19 year old kid who's just finding his way and is bound to be inconsistent?

[Rich Ricci]

Well it's no coincidence that his form has dropped since the Iceland episode and being caught on video inhaling laughing gas so aye I would say that he would.

Game of two halves that match was tonight. Well organised Brighton deserved their 1st half lead while United stepped it up 2nd half for a hard earned win.

11 points ahead 5th of now with 8 games to play, a more and decent position to be in.

That's a little misleading. Both Everton and West Ham can move into top 4 if they win their games in hand so the gap is potentially only 8 points and Utd have some hard games left. I expect them to make it but I don't think it's as clear cut as BT were suggesting last night. I think the top 4 particularly 4th could be really tight.

That's a snapshot of where Utd and Utd fans are at the minute. We're a minimum of 8 and possibly as many as 11 points clear of 4th with 8 games to go yet there is still that nagging doubt... It really should be as clear cut as BT were saying last night, but.......

4th from now would be a woeful finish to the season. Should be aiming for a comfortable second and the Europa League.

That's sort of the point

If we could win the Europa league then 2nd or 4th in league is irrelevant in my opinion. We will need to rest players if we do manage to progress in europe and  So blooding youngsters in some league games wouldnt be a bad thing.

United need to invest. Apart from Fernandes, its basically been the same side for two seasons. You look at the business done last summer and none if the purchases have been a regular in the team.

Lingard on form for West Ham tonight. Do Man Utd cash in in the summer or take a chance on him ?

Cash in. No debate.

Would echo. Playing brilliant but prob get extra 10-15 million.  You often see footballers suddenly play well when looking for new contract or club. Theo Walcott always had habit of playing well when contract was near expiry.

Would be a good leverage now to get Rice. They have a player that we want, and we have a player that I'm sure they would be keen on having.

[macker15]

Would looking at Ndidli ahead of Rice. Wouldn't be paying big money for Rice. Look at Rose and Dier spurs worth 50 mil each  3/4 years ago look at them now.

Going back to the Welbeck penalty claim, had another look at it and don't see how it wasn't given - looked a clear penalty.

Yeah it's a strange one.

Sky Sports refereeing pundit Dermot Gallagher said that he agreed that VAR could not overturn the decision.

"I think Mike Dean wasn't convinced it was a foul and the VAR can't intervene because being a subjective decision that it is... is it a coming-together or has he slipped?" said Gallagher.

"Mike Dean has a difficult call. He's not sure if Maguire catches Welbeck and the VAR, when he looks at it, has to go with the referee as it's not a clear and obvious error. It's one of those where you have to accept the ref's decision on the field and stand by it."
