Iam really surprised by man utd scouts that they Didn't even linked to
João Palhinha . This guy is a f***ing monster , a bulldozer just like a Roy Keane type of mold . He always want to tackle who isn't afraid of hurting opponent with his tackle. If we can get João Palhinha in 30 mil deal this will be the best transfer window I have seen in this decade for man utd. João Palhinha is criminally underrated and we also have good relationship with sporting and we know no player has flopped who came from sporting
Utd are stronger than Chelsea. Close to City and Liverpool.
As good as the other three? United finished higher than Chelsea and Liverpool last year
Greenwood
Rashford Sancho
Bruno Fernandes
Pogba Mctominay
Shaw Varane Maguire Wan bissaka
Henderson
I still think we can't rely on cavani and the other strikers to get us the league champion….we need haaland or kane
Pundits give their own opinions.
Craig: I agree with their point
Need back up for Cavani.
if he gets injured we are Fkd. Martial ? no not good enough. I'm sure the 99 team had 4 strikers
Man Utd 3-5-2 formation
De Gea
Wan Bisaka Varane Maguire
Fred/New CDM
Sancho Bruno Pogba Shaw
Cavani Rashford
not if pogba stays at MU
NO❗👹
2021/22 English Premier League:
1️⃣ Chelsea
2️⃣ Man City
Me *a United fan-sees the video and clicks on in. Realize that it's ESPN so the answer is most probably no. Exits the video
21 in 2021
We need good midfielder to back up pogba and Bruno in case they are injured. We need I r bench to be as good as our first eleven. That is his we going to win trophy
no
Maybe a Kimich in the base of that Mid?
Dreams come true right
This year will be their year.
😉
No.
LOL Manchester United finishes 2nd pretty clearly and adds 2 world class players at needed roles. ESPN pundits: yeah they'll still struggle to get top 4. 🤣
Craig rattling mancs as usual, you love to see it 😀
Manchester was always one defender away from being title contenders but they always went for players like DI Maria, Sanchez, pogba, cavani, ibra, falcao, lukaku etc…. And every single one of them flopped because the pressure they put in their strikers out weighed the pressure in the defence, poorly run organization up until this summer… and too think they bought defenders like blind, Bailey, rojo and thought they could win anything was insanity 🤦🏼♂️ after 10 years they finally got it fucking right by signing a half decent defender
City and Liverpool not that strong enough either what they’re talking about!!! United has best squad now in PL
Haven’t watched yet but I bet ole is being slagged off 😂
Chelsea finished 4th in the league last season, but because they won the champions league, suddenly they are premier league contenders? Wow….these guys will never use their brain
Never with Ole. The coach is grossly incompetent. However, with a proper manager and this squad definitely contenders.
They will never praise Real and United whole heartedly no matter what. These pundit are biased.
Wow this is probably the first time I’ve agreed to every word to what Burley said, am I going mad or is Burley talking sense?! 🤯
Craig talking about Sir Alex. Is he even qualified enough to talk about him??
Craig is very eloquent and quite well spoken but the hate against Manchester United is very obvious . He is very very biased and that is seriously disgusting considering Sky Sports considers him a professional .
MU needs a coach, Ole is useless
If utd get camavinga and trippier as well I believe they are champions
Craig will be Craig
Just a CDM to remove shitomminay and we all well on our way
It is still gonna be Manchester Shitty with that nonsense manager, Anthony Farcial, Marcus Trashford, and Paul Flopgba.
Nope .not yet.. but on the right track
I am Speechless, Straight away after Dr,Winner cast the Lottery spell for me, I felt enveloped by the control of the spell. This spell changed my life into riches
Start 20/21 season for MUFC everyone was disappointed ( here we go again) . But to end up second was an awesome surprise ( Fernandes magic 🪄). The signings will only enhance the depth.
They won’t get anywhere with Solksjaer as manager, they need a good manager
Short answer: no
Long answer: Absolutely not
Sorry to say but I think Rashford is the weak link in that United side. He has one or two good months a season and then is poor for 8 months. He was awful towards the end of the season.
Martial on the left with Sancho on the right and Cavani/Greenwood rotating as striker is Uniteds strongest attacking set up currently.
Wait til Ole brings on Varane in the 89th min of a game we are chasing 0 -1. It is written.
Maguire is LCB not RCB
Feel bad for the swedish lad. He is a hard working boy but yea
Lol Varane without Ramos is like a fish out of the water. Have you seen him play when his dad is not there to hold his hand?
Yes, it does. Hurts me to say it as a Liverpool fan, but it'sS their Van Dijk moment, well done
If they are not in the convo then the manager has to go!
Craig is Salty BUT he has a POINT, the standard for Man Utd should be waaaay higher than it is at present. He knows SAF MAN UTD were always one of the favs even in their weakest, so i have to agree, He just has high standards for Man Utd
They should try first be more up than man city. Before dreaming about trophy
