Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Rashford got a goal ruled out for offside in the first half.

Kind of an uninspired showing with the first half ended 0-0.

Then, Casemiro strikes....and another ....within 5 mins.
Absolute game changer, this guy.

Yup, they got a bit slacky after going 3-0 up and let Reading grab one back.

Can see ETH sweat a little on his bald head. I mean he was already doing the subs expecting the players to hold up the 3-0 lead.

Antony kind of redeem himself with a better showing this time.
His fellow country man, Casemiro was quick to acknowledge his contribution for the 1st goal. Repeatedly pointing to Antony and signal to the crowd.
Think he is aware about all the flak Antony had been receiving lately.

Antony was picked as Player of the match.:D

Why r there so many lurkers in this forum ahh ???....haha ..maybe I shd go underground too to protect my identity

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Good to see u back after so long bro AC :)...tot u switched to be a fan of other clubs already

Yah, u may be right, they seem to be asking for the sky to sell the club...who would be able to buy ???...they will never win any titles or cups if they r so stingy n not willing to back ETH up with more signings this January transfer window when all their arch rivals r strengthening their squads like nobody business e g Newcastle, Chelsea n Arsenal esp..

believe they will slip down from top 4 come end of season without more signings as more n more of their 1st team players r injured or suspended like in the case of Pool n they hv so many more matches yet to play ...see them being replaced by Chelsea in the top 4

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Don't think anyone will be rich enough to buy looking at their asking price...not even the oil rich Saudis....maybe all this is a charade

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

He actually did better in their next match against Reading in the FA Cup assisting Casemiro in one of his goals :)

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Yes, u r right...it was an all Brazil affair against Reading ...Casemiro, Fred n Antony scoring or launching the attacks....Reading got no chance but the bad thing is Andy Carroll injured Erikssen :( n was sent off :)

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Good analysis of the match bro :)...Rashford was denied by VAR from setting a record of scoring 10 consecutive goals :(...by VAR overturning his goal for offside...just like u said the other day Nott Forest got a goal overruled against United for offside also by VAR...so this is payback time for United ??

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Today is the last day of the January transfer window n we can see Conte of Spurs n Arteta of Arsenal working so hard doing frantic last minute transfer deals for their teams b4 the deadline time in an hour's time...whilst ETH n the useless board appears to be relaxed n sleeping, satisfied with the players they now hv n not worrying abt losing Eriksson who will not be able to play again till end of season in May due to the serious injury he just sustained in the game against Reading hacked down by their idiotic player Andy Carroll

If this is the case, think they will prolly end up empty handed again of silverware for another season as they still hv to compete against strong teams like Arsenal n Man City in 4 different cup competitions without additional reinforcements to cover for injured or suspended players...if they can win one of the 4 competitions, can consider as a miracle liao...their only hope now is to win the Carabao cup

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Apologies to ETH n the board...must eat my own words...wow, the guy is really something...does his work quietly n quickly at the last minute of the transfer window to get this prolific striker Marcel Sabitzer on loan from Bayern Munich to replace the injured Eriksson :)...so quiet that I tot they were sleeping on the job ..my apologies again...so the race continues for MU to try win the 4 competitions they still r in...saw a video of him in play, wow he may even be better than Eriksson if he plays the way he did in the video :)...GGMU !

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Um, wouldn't get my hopes up just yet. Can't even make it as a regular on Bayern's first team. Believe he was not even first choice on ten Hag's wishlist. Feels like a panic transfer, albeit only on loan (which is smart).

He is primarily a central midfielder, btw. Though he has played on the wing and as a 10 in his career.

Fingers-crossed he is better than I read.

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

its unfortunate that eriksen will be out until end april, bad timing as this mth is packed with fixtures, hope sancho can return asap to boost the squad depth

ETH will slowly ease sabitzer into first team action, at least 2 weeks as a sub?

with eriksen out, fernandes will be the main creative force henceforth, possible lineup: DDG, AWB, shaw, varane, martinez, casemiro, fred, antony, fernandes, rashford, WW

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Quite unfortunate that he didn't make the cut-off to play against Forest in the league cup. The boss would surely have given him minutes, if we were in control by half-time.

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Think he can't be any worse than WW bah...did u see the video in the app "Manchester live" in which is shown the fantastic goals that he scored for Leipzig ???...if u see it, u prolly won't be doubting him that much...a picture is worth more than a thousand words

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Seems like a walkover for them early this morning against Forest in the Carabao Cup 2nd leg...defeating them 2-0, goals courtesy of Martial n Fred :)...total aggregate win is 5-0...heard that Bruno played magically to supply Fred his pass which led to Fred's goal

Re: Manchester United's Headliners, Articles and Rumours
 

Yes, that is my main concern too.
His reason for agreeing to the loan was he wanted more play time.

But then, I had been very wrong with ETH signings.
Eriksen -- this guy got a heart condition.....nuff said.
L Martinez -- wah lieu, so short, how to be CB in EPL...sure squash like a pancake by bigger size opponents.
Casemiro -- looking for retirement club in Man U??
WW -- 1.97m, yah i know he tall, but can score boh??

As it fans out, I was slapped 4 times....:D

I hope Im wrong again.:p
