It's see if this works,

A thread for Man United supporters to discuss everything to do with Man United.

Posted by: Mack. 18th August 2022, 10:15 AM

British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe wants to buy Manchester United.

News of the 69-year-old's interest follows a Bloomberg report that the Glazer family are willing to sell a minority stake in the club.

"If the club is for sale, Jim is definitely a potential buyer," Ratcliffe's spokesperson told The Times.

"If something like this was possible, we would be interested in talking with a view to long-term ownership."

As long as we avoid losing by a 5+ goal margin against Liverpool next Monday we still won't have had as bad a start to the season as Arsenal did last season (3 losses, 0 goals scored, 9 conceded) and look at them now, things can change VERY quickly in football!

Posted by: Mack. 18th August 2022, 11:35 AM

What would it take to actually fix us for this season?

Casmerio
Sommer
De Jong
Dest
Antony
Vardy

Posted by: Dobbo. 18th August 2022, 11:56 AM

I would totally take Casemiro. I know he's not played in the PL before but I think he's one of the world's best in his position so would be the optimal choice. I'll believe it when I see it though!

Saying that, him alone won't fix us. The club is broken from top to bottom right now so you could have the world XI playing for us and things would still probably go wrong.

Posted by: Silas 18th August 2022, 12:15 PM

To change the Club the owners have to go. That is the only way any meaningful change will ever happen. We need new owners, proper investment in our infrax (the club has money but it lines the glazers pockets and pays their debts instead of building better training facilities and upgrading OT), and a proper football structure fit for the 2020‘s that is independent of interference from the board and the commercial side.

Until the fundamentally f***ed back office is fixed the club will remain disfunctional and fail to live up to its potential

Posted by: Mack. 18th August 2022, 01:56 PM

Who would you want as a new owner?

Posted by: Brett-Butler 18th August 2022, 02:47 PM

New owners for Manchester United will mean jack all if the Glazers sell it to a private equity firm like Apollo Management, as they'll do the same as them or worse - loading the company with debt with eye watering interest, asset stripping, and running it solely for extracting pounds out of its century-old reputation. That's not to say the other options, such as selling it to countries or organizations looking to white-wash their reputations, are any better. The best (realistic) hope is that it's bought over by a very rich man who genuinely loves the club, given that the best option, being owned by the supporters, is nigh-on impossible.

Posted by: Houdini 18th August 2022, 04:53 PM

Great idea for a thread this is! It should help other teams in the league get more of a focus in the main Premier League thread. Also echoing what has been said already the Glazers definitely need to go, I don't know if Jim Ratcliffe would be the right person to take over though but to be honest I don't know anything about him anyway.

Casemiro reeks of Varane MK II. He's almost unlike a DM or pivot player Ten Haag usually goes for - probably coming for his last pay day now Tchoumanei and Camavinga are at Madrid. They must be licking their lips.

And Ratcliffe would be a good owner. But he's done exactly the same PR move as he did with Chelsea. Can't see the Glazers selling, I'm not even sure they would sell part of the club to fund infastructure improvements.

An alternative option to Gakpo is the Atletico Madrid forward Yannick Carrasco, who is priced at £25.5m, after United failed with a bid of £67.6m for Ajax's Antony who was their first choice.

Posted by: Dobbo. 19th August 2022, 01:57 PM

I think he's got to stay now. Nowhere else wants him other than clubs outside of Europe and it seems his only interest is the Champions League so he's in a bit of a hole now.

I don't want him to go. All this talk of him downing tools and causing discontent in the dressing room but I don't see how that benefits him? He's still got a World Cup to go soon so will need to be in tip top shape and form.

Maguire would be good in a back 3, he's good there for England for example. Certainly plays to his strengths and would cover his major weaknessess.

Posted by: awardinary 21st August 2022, 08:09 AM

If Maguire leaves I think that will get rid of a lot of the negativity around the club. Not all of it of course. But if that meant we have to rely on Varane every week then that’s going to leak us more goals. Phil Jones is still there too right? Enough said.

According to The Sun today, Erik ten Hag forcing Man Utd flops to watch videos of Man City, Chelsea and Liverpool… so they see how good teams play. That’s a funny claim and will have zero impact.

Phil Jones is the ultimate example of the sunken cost fallacy. Just terminate the useless c**ts contract and get him out of my club. How he was ever given another contract, I do not know. Man hasn't done shit but keep the physios in business for the past decade.

Liverpool are not at it at the moment. Hopefully this will be maintained for the rest of the match. Trent in particular is not having a good game at the moment.

Posted by: Rooney 22nd August 2022, 09:11 PM

Fair play Utd, just goes to show how far the narrative shifts. Ten Haag played pragmatic and copied Palace's tactics against us. Best team in the world again now! Amazing how things change so quickly Lots of agression which was good, Liverpool just didn't show up today and that first goal was honestly dreadful from Virgil. But a good win, Utd played well and we didn't deserve anything from the match - we look a little shot physically and our midfield is truly terrible at this moment in time.

Posted by: Houdini 22nd August 2022, 09:48 PM

Much better performance tonight but it's no good only doing this against Liverpool, this needs to be done consistently. I liked the anger in Erik Ten Hag during his post match interview while he was stressing that you can't just play like this against Liverpool.

Sky Sports are making out like the title race is over for Liverpool because they have 2 points from the first 3 games. Pretty sure Liverpool will still be 2nd by the end of the season, it just takes a winning run and then they'll climb up the table fast.

Jamie O'Hara said that we would lose 5-0 tonight. Does that guy ever get anything right? He's stealing a living I think.

Posted by: Dobbo. 22nd August 2022, 10:14 PM

Well I don't know what team that was that turned up at OT today but can we play them every week

I was especially shocked at how well Rashford played. First good game in about 4 years...

110% here for it. Trapp is great and it weakens Eintracht which is just a bonus. Coz there was rumours they were looking at Sommer and then rumours he said naw. Which, tbh, I am not sure I entirely believe

Posted by: awardinary 29th August 2022, 08:40 PM

So with Antony set to join us, and Casemiro already here, they will no doubt get plenty of game time each week with their price tags, so whose going to drop out of the first team to make room for them? I can see Fred playing less under Eric ten Hag, possibly Sancho too, it’s going to be hard to make room for only 11 players in the pitch, but at least there’s the 5 subs rule this season.

I don’t rate Dubravka signing though, that’s a poor choice there.

Posted by: Rooney 29th August 2022, 09:12 PM

Dubravka is a good signing to come as a number 2. He's good enough to be first choice to a mid-table Premier League team. I did think they might have gone for a proper sweeper keeper though.

Anthony - can't say I have ever seen a lot of him, but it is a lot of money for someone who I don't think is courted by any other big teams. I think Brazil see him as the potential successor to Neymar so clearly there is a lot of potential there, but a lot of pressure with that price tag and you feel Man Utd have overpaid. Over £200m spent again - madness.

Posted by: Steve201 30th August 2022, 03:54 PM

The other clubs see United coming and know they can rip the Glazers off - hopefully this is another example of that!

Since the match against Liverpool our defence has looked so solid. Malacia and Martinez are really gelling well with Varane and Dalot has improved a lot in the past 3 games as well, I don't think it's a coincidence that Maguire has been on the bench for the past 3 games either and that's where he should stay. Bruno seems to play better when Ronaldo is not in the team and the same could be said for Sancho and Rashford. Hopefully we keep this up for longer and especially going into the match against Arsenal on Sunday.

Posted by: Houdini 22nd October 2022, 11:38 PM

I thought the game was over once Jorginho scored the penalty for Chelsea but Casemiro saved us at the last minute, really enjoyed the passion in his celebration as well. He's made a positive difference to us since he joined. Still a bit annoyed that it wasn't all 3 points though due to the penalty that we conceded.

Posted by: Dobbo. 24th October 2022, 08:46 AM

Such an important result that, had we lost all the goodwill built up in the past few weeks would have been extinguished but rescuing that point at the death was massive for self-confidence and the fact it was against Chelsea who are directly above in the table keeps them within our sights (though now we've Toon army sneaking around the outside!)

You'd like to think that, having got all of the games vs the big 6 (big 7 now?) out of the way, we can kick on but it's usually the lesser teams that cause us the most problems so expecting a few more dodgy games this side of the WC.

I think Rashford has probably done enough to start for England and if not start, then certainly should be in the squad.

When you look at the players England have played in that position over the past few years (Sterling, Grealish, Saka, Foden, Mount, Bowen, Sancho, Lingard, Smith Rowe) the only ones that you can say have been better than him this season are Saka and Foden and they both prefer to play on the right side which leaves Rashford as the obvious choice for LW to me. And with Saka going off injured yesterday hopefully he will be fit enough to play too.

What on earth was that second half from Ten Hag? United looked in a decent position but that formation change to 3-3-3-1 was disastrous. Didn’t have any control in the game at all after that. Especially crazy when they could have kept the normal 4-3-3 and kept players in their normal positions. Why were they playing Bruno on the right and Rashford at CAM? Why were Dalot and Shaw playing CB?

No way back for Ronaldo now after this. I think it's hypocritical what he said about being forced out of the club, he's the one that said he wanted to leave because we didn't qualify for the Champions League and he's walked out of Old Trafford twice while a match was still ongoing. He shouldn't expect to play regularly if he's showing signs that he doesn't want to be at United anymore. I think we should do whatever it takes to get him out of the club in January but at the same time it seems like no one wants him and with this "me me me" attitude it's not hard to see why. His initial period at United will always be remembered but it's probably for best that we move on without him and the impact that our new signings have made will benefit us even more.

We're on a roll at the moment and are actually not far behind Man City, we do play them and Arsenal soon so we could close the gap even further or perhaps overtake them in the next few weeks if we can get wins in those matches.

Posted by: RabbitFurCoat 7th January 2023, 09:34 PM

Wout Weghorst! Jack Butland!

Posted by: Rooney 8th January 2023, 10:12 PM

I don't think Weghorst is that bad of a signing given the right system. There were loads of stories that Man Utd have no money to spend, hence the loan signings and seemingly from the briefings from the press, whoever does end up buying them (looks unlikely to be a State) will cut back on the spending and implement an internal wage cap. Probably the right thing to do, but will be interesting how the fans react to Liverpool/Spurs levels of frustrating transfer windows.

United in some great form at the moment but the big test is against City. The games since the restart have been all games you'd expect them to win easily (although they were lucky against Wolves). Looking very good for Top 4 at the moment though.

Posted by: Dobbo. 9th January 2023, 11:17 AM

Weghost would be a horrendous signing and I want nothing to do with it. He barley performed for a relegated Burnley last season, no thanks.

I don't think we will win the league but it is a great result nonetheless and to come back from behind showed a lot of character, Garnacho was the key substitution and changed the game. At the very least this will help strengthen our top 4 place and hopefully we'll beat Palace and then Arsenal next week.

Mega result but we actually have beaten City quite a few times in recent years even when we were in worse form so don't want to read too much into it. Form always goes out the window for these big derbies much like the North London one which I can see spurs winning. Definitely played City at a good time though I can't remember them being in this bad form since Pep"s first season with them.

Charges of attempted rape and assault have been dropped against Manchester United footballer Mason Greenwood.

The 21-year-old was arrested in January last year amid allegations surrounding images and videos that emerged online.

He was later charged with attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

The Crown Prosecution Service said the charges were discontinued after a key witness withdrew their involvement.

A spokesman said: "We have a duty to keep cases under continuous review.

"In this case a combination of the withdrawal of key witnesses and new material that came to light meant there was no longer a realistic prospect of conviction. In these circumstances, we are under a duty to stop the case.

Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani, the chairman of one of Qatar's biggest banks, has confirmed his foundation will bid to buy Manchester United.

BBC Sport understands that Ineos, owned by Sir Jim Ratcliffe, also officially made a bid before Friday's 22:00 GMT 'soft deadline' for proposals.

Billionaire Ratcliffe had already stated his interest in buying United.

The Glazer family, who bought United in 2005, are considering selling as they "explore strategic alternatives".

Sheikh Jassim's Qatari consortium said: "The bid plans to return the club to its former glories.

"The bid will be completely debt free via Sheikh Jassim's Nine Two Foundation, which will look to invest in the football teams, the training centre, the stadium and wider infrastructure, the fan experience and the communities the club supports.

"The vision of the bid is for Manchester United to be renowned for footballing excellence, and regarded as the greatest football club in the world."

It needlessly congests the schedule for Teams also playing in Europe and I think given it gives access to the poundland UEFA cup it should be geared more towards bottom half PL/top half championship clubs to give them a financial boost by gaining access to a European comp to put them on better footing to compete in the PL or gain promotion to it

It's a reality check definitely, there would have been a small bracket of deluded fans saying we were in the title race but any level-headed fan knew otherwise. I still don't think top 4 is assured yet especially now, but can take comfort in the fact that Spurs & Toon have fallen off a cliff in recent weeks.

I have faith in the manager to react appropriately, but it's worrying that we've already had our asses handed to us 3 times under him which was a worrying trend under Ole as well.

Especially being away from home at St James Park with Newcastle's fans extra pumped up facing a rival and wanting revenge for the Carabao Cup final. Although obviously it's not nice to lose I would say in my opinion that we won the match against Newcastle that really counted more than the others between the two sides this season.

I knew we were in for a tough day as soon as i saw Sabitzer and McTominay in midfield. Both passengers who will let even the most pedestrian teams run at our defence all day long.

Couple that with Weghorst who can't hold the ball up, can't head it and can't shoot. Every time our defence cleared the ball it came straight back.

That's what you get with De Gea. He has a string of worldie performances which are the only reason we keep the score down but when he has an off day, it's an absolute stinker.

The bigger concern are these pair of clowns at CB for the rest of the season. Hopefully now at least Shaw is back he can replace Maguire at the weekend.

Erik ten Hag believes Marcus Rashford and Manchester United "will find each other" in the striker's ongoing contract discussions.

Rashford has scored 29 goals in all competitions for his boyhood club this season, his best in a United shirt.

Speaking before the visit to Bournemouth on Saturday, Ten Hag was asked for an update on the negotiations regarding the England international's future.

"I know [it is taking time]," he said.

"But I don't talk about the process. This is not important at the moment for me or Rashy.

"For him, it is to get more goals this season and he is playing a wonderful season and the team is playing a wonderful season.

"We have to get into the Champions League and focus on that. Marcus wants to stay and we want him to stay, so I think we will find each other."

Mount is a strange one - I actually really like him as a player and think he will be a good signing, but unless Man Utd plan on changing their style this season to more of a 433 or the inverted full back, it seems a bit bizzarre. Suspect most Man Utd fans would agree the midfield could do with an upgrade, but with the current de Gea situation and striker situation, with a limited budget, surely a striker is the biggest pressing issue?

Onana will be a way better keeper than De Gea will be though, although it all seems very strange how De Gea accepted to be a #2 and then Man Utd pulled the contract on him - very strange I must say. Onana is probably way below the elite goalkeepers out there, but he's in a good second tier. He's good with his feet and will set up quick attacks. Although he is no where near as good a shot stopper as De Gea.

Will be interesting to see how Man Utd get on, last time when Man Utd tried to be way less compact they got absolutely battered before Ten Haag changed it.

That was a poor performance from us against Wolves. We were lucky to win to be honest, they dominated the match and it's wasteful finishing in front of goal that stopped them from getting anything. If they continue to play like that for the rest of the season they'll be nowhere the relegation zone by the end. As for us we must do better in future but getting the 3 points was the minimum we could have asked for so that is a positive.

Posted by: awardinary 14th August 2023, 11:32 PM

Yeah it didn’t scream confidence and if we continue to play like that at home we won’t be challenging this season for any trophies.

If Pavard comes in that may help firm up the back line, but it’s the attacking options where we are still missing a trick with. I’m not convinced the likes of Garnacho, Sancho, Højlund or Mount are going to be putting away a high number of goals this season. With Rashford who was in excellent form after the World Cup last winter, I don’t know what sort of season he will have, but I can’t see a good enough system around him to warrant the opportunities.

Maguire will leave, not sure about McTominay who featured in the game, does anyone actually want him from us right now?

I fear unless a big signing comes before the transfer window closes we won’t have much of a shot at glory this season.

Horrible club and brainless from Ten Haag. Feel sorry for the fans who are put in an uncompromising position about this. I can't see this ending well at all for a club so concerned about image.

Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho will train away from the first team until issues between the player and manager Erik ten Hag are resolved, the club has confirmed.

United said in a statement: "Jadon Sancho will remain on a personal training programme away from the first team group pending resolution of a squad discipline issue."

This follows Ten Hag's revelation that Sancho had been left out of his squad for the Premier League defeat at Arsenal earlier this month because the winger's training performances were not up to the level required.

Posted by: Mack. 14th September 2023, 03:03 PM

Nothing changes by changing the squad or the manager. Nothing will change until the Glazers sell the club. Because the rot starts at the top. You can tinker with the squad and the manager all you want but when everything else is entirely rotted away, it’ll always just be a matter of a couple of years before the rot takes over the new manager and then the Glazer PR machine whips the fanbase into thinking that the problem is the manager and the next cycle begins.

The problem is not financial backing in the window, it’s the glazers interference and refusal to actually authorise approaches for the players the manager and scouts identify, instead only authorising who they want and then panic buying at the end of a window and overpaying for people like 9th on the list. They hoard money and refuse to invest in the facilities and ground, they refuse to put a proper sporting structure in place and ultimately only care about their dividends

Pick a problem and you’ll find the Glazers continued existence as the root cause. While they still own the club, we will be stuck in this rut. Only a full sale or the death of the most interfering duo will save the club

What a turnaround! Absolutely buzzing. I thought we had missed the chance to get something from the game when we couldn't score before half time when we had a bit of momentum. Beating the Villa is great.

Maybe saved Erik’s job!

Probably has for a few weeks.

I think he is the right man for a difficult job but needed that win yesterday!

I felt it was less about us playing well and more Villa being complete and utter bottlejobs but we take the W and move! Great for Rasmus to get the proverbial monkey off his back.

Always thought he looks a decent player, his movement is superb and he’s only 22!

I thought Utd played well yesterday. Villa played in to their hands though - if Villa had set up in a low block at 2-0, there was no way Utd were scoring. Can't help but feel this result, just puts off the inevitable though with Ten Haag. I can see Ratcliffe wanting to install his own man and if Utd don't get Champions League football this season, I think it is going to be bad. I did laugh at the fact the camera kept banning to Brailsford in the crowd. As usual, I'll be grabbing my popcorn when this goes terribly wrong - Clive Woodward MK II.

I was pleased to see Rasmus getting his 1st Premier League goal yesterday and I hope this can be the first of many to come for him. It was good fighting sprit that we showed to come back from 2-0 down but now it's about taking that sprit into the upcoming matches starting with Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Donny van de Beek has signed for Eintracht Frankfurt on loan from Manchester United.

The 26-year-old Dutch midfielder will join the Bundesliga side for the remainder of the 2023/24 season.

With Jim being at United today, I expect the 'Erik's been told if we lose to Wigan he's out' rumour mill to get into full swing.

Manchester United have exercised the break clause in Sergio Reguilon’s loan – and the player will return to Tottenham.

Reguilon joined United on Deadline Day in the summer – primarily to cover for injuries to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.

Any realistic chance we sign anyone in Jan?

Posted by: Dobbo 22nd January 2024, 06:51 PM

No one good that's for sure.
