Man Utd will probably sell him quickly if he is cleared. It's all about the commercial brand and even if found not guilty, it will follow the player around.

Are people that unforgiving?
If he is genuinely repentant I wish him the best.

Yes lol.

Man literally beat his girlfriend down. Now obviously if it came out that she lied etc. that's different but evidence isn't good man.

Btw I think Man Utd are handling the situation well, he shouldn't be sacked while an investigation is happening but should be suspended. Arsenal doing it ultimately the wrong way but then Brighton did the same with Bissouma and he beat the case.

It's a shame. Why do McTominay and Fred continue to play.

Also Martinez going to absolutely get found out in this league.

It’s all a manlet centre half can hope to achieve in England.

He will just be targeted non-stop and there is only so many times a referee will allow you to pull a taller player down etc.

5 foot ****ing 9 Jesus.

At least azpi was 5'10 and had Gary Cahill and Luiz next to him Jesus.

Reminder this guy got shifted by Danny Welbeck. Haaland has the same pace and power if not more.

I have my doubts he’s 5’9

He looks uber small.

Reply 789

Tbf Maguire is 6'4 next to him and Welbeck who destroyed him all game is 6'2. No wonder he has manlet vibes.

Feel bad for ten hag but imagine starting the season with McTominay and Fred in midfield again.

Pogba was the problem tho lol. Guy must be laughing.

Even the whole De Jong saga. It’s just wasting time when there is a season to play and smacks of wanting to sign a splash name, rather than getting solid players in.

The thing with De Jong is that I don’t think he is the midfielder that United need. He isn’t a DM, he moves from defence to attack, passing through channels and space but United don’t have anyone to defend in midfield.

The other issue continues to be Fernandes, should have bombed him out when the stock was high as the guy is all risk and cannot fit into a functioning team. His entire game is hit 10 passes, lose the ball 9 times but manage to assist on the 10th but during that time United have conceded twice due to lack of control.

Also, has Ten Haag never watched any other team except Ajax? It’s very much a getting the band back together mind-set. Very Harry Redknapp/Allardyce and he would be getting ripped for the transfer targets if he was English and getting the old boys back.

There have been Ziyech rumours as well from what I remember.
A defeat at home as start into the new season. I don't expect anything for United, not even an Europa League place at the end.

Yeah I think Martinez would be a boss as a libero (Mascherano type destroyer) or side guy ball progressing on back three like Rudiger.

In reality Man United suit a back 3. Maguire for England is good in the back 3, Martinez lack of height makes him suited in back 3. Varane obviously good enough to play in any system.

Eriksen as false 9 stinks of overthinking, this isn't man City lmao. I think they should play eriksen instead of one of Fred/McTominay. People say that it's too lightweight but Chelsea won two titles with Fabregas playing the exact same role.

Reply 797

Also I think United need a progressive 6/8 type as well as a destructive 6. I think eriksen would be a good progressive 8 and a destructive 6 can be whoever really.

Should change the club name to Meme Utd

Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Paris Saint-Germain outcast Mauro Icardi this summer.
