More protests! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66322345

“ But United have a net spend of 1.36bn euros (£1.18bn) on transfers under the Glazers, with only Manchester City having a higher figure in that period.”

Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson was furious after the final whistle, advising Bishop to 'stay away' from his team. "I’m fuming about it, I’ve got to be honest with you," he said.

"It was a clumsy, reckless challenge in a pre-season game and I’m not happy with it at all. I haven’t seen the goalie and he’s probably best steering clear of us for the time being because we’re not very happy."


United this pre season are clearly under instruction to be super aggressive, there were some leg breakers against us in the friendly the other day and even their B team hasnt let up, they play Real madrid later today, be interesting if they carry on their assaults and what the ref does.


Also , united charged 180 dollars for tickets and not one first teamer played. Out of order that.

I was there and said in real time that it was a bad one then I saw the replay on the big screen and was sure. Dunno how he didn't get a red for it.
A lot of their kids were being shithouses, I told the wife they are definitely preparing them for the first team.
Honestly though most of them didn't look anything special, the only one who looked half good was the CM #46, can't remember his name but his hair gave me Valderama vibes, he looked to have the ability but wanted to showboat way too much and Wrexhams older pro's were not giving him the time he's used to at youth level.
Finally got to see young Ben Foster, I can see what all the hype is about, he's gonna have a big future.
That's outrageous from Utd too

Don't see them finishing in the Top 4

Another year on the legs of Eriksen, Casemiro and Varane.

Rashford's form tailed off badly last third of the season

Martial's still there, Maguire still there, didn't get any mug to take Sancho off their hands, Antony is £83m

Finally fucked DDG off but replaced him with a keeper who has at least one bad rick in him per game.

90's fullbacks Shaw and AWB, and can't even name their cover FB's

Still loads of deadwood on their bench can't be shifted because of high wages.

Expect Chelsea to be so much better this season under Poch and if Villa keep up their end of season form Utd could finish below them too.

I'm predicting 6th or lower for them.

They've bought Mount which will give them more energy in midfield, so Eriksens legs going is irrelevant, as for RB, Dalot starts for them there now, they're still not very good at all but they'll always spawn enough Jammy 1 nils throughout the season to be up in the top 4 or 5.

Apparently Maguire doesn't want to go as he feels he should be at a bigger club than West Ham while Man United feel £20mil is derisory. West Ham fans don't want him at any price, Man United fans don't want him but feel West Ham should pay £35 million or they are taking the piss and West Ham only want him for cheap and if Man United pay half his wages.

Something tells me Harry will still be haunting our friends from Manchester next season.

Sounds like he wants to stay and fight for his place. Lovely stuff. Even more funny considering how every man, woman and child of a Manchester United persuasion wants to see the back of him. I hope he leaves there on a free in a few years time when the sad day does come.

I've thought a lot about who the worst transfer of all time is and surely it is Maguire. There's been a few more slightly expensive flops but pound for pound I'm still saying Maguire. He'd shown literally nothing to suggest he was anywhere near the level they'd have wanted, and I'm not having the England form as international football is often like watching a different sport. Even at international level he makes mistakes against dross. Just someone the entire family can enjoy really., good fun.

Posted a few pages back:

I was reading that Caf thread yesterday and it's baffling, already Mount is better.

Quite a few shouts that Szobo regressed, 10 goals and 14 assists last season for a midfielder.

Funny how they forget to mention the regression from Mount the last 18 months.

This is a fanbase that had Harry Maguire as a top 5 CB on the planet.

BBC Breakfast News just said the Mancs have turned down a £20M bid for Slabby from West Ham. I'd have thought they'd have snapped their hand off at that price. He's not worth that much, even in today's insane market.

I know the Saudi guy hoovering up all the LFC players and ex-players is supposed to be a mad Reds fan, but isn't it telling that we've not heard a peep about anybody in the M.E. being interested in any United players?

Seems that there seems to be a gap forming between the clubs' respective reputations. Imagine watching Henderson swan off for £700 grand a week whilst your club is turning down £20m bids for you from West Ham.

A youngster of theirs missing the first part of the season, injury picked up after Casemiro hacked down a Real Madrid player who fell onto the other unite player.

They don’t do friendlies, the dumb fucks.
We already have shit in the country, and the game of Liverpool fills life with joy. Thanks
