    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    Imagine how differently his career might have gone if he had joined Klopp instead of chasing the wages at United. Really poor career management by his agent and those close to him. Would have been a pressing monster and creative weapon in our current system.

    Maguire is on £180k a week. There will be English clubs prepared to get close to that to take him imo. West Ham weren't bothered by it, he simply thought he was above going there and wanted to fight for his place at United. Rashford they'll have to take a hit and that's already accepted. Saudi...

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    I don't think they'll have too many issues getting players off the books, it's quite clear some of the non-performance is a result of the club culture and poor tactics rather than individual ability. There will be plenty of suitors, the problem will be wages and like what happened with Maguire...

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    We will put the cue in the rack early I suspect, Slot isn't the type of manager to go after a big score line. We've got some hungry subs though so the likes of Jota, Chiesa, Darwin and Elliott could have some fun if given the chance. No doubt we will still find a way to concede, most likely...

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    The problem United will have when it comes to fixing this mess is that selling clubs will immediately slap a tax on any players United want. Unless they get some really shrewd operators who can find bargain release clauses, there's no way they'll be able to get in the quantity and quality of...

    The best part is the United fans who thought this was entirely an ETH problem rather than a squad quality issue. Wonder if we ever see Boy Blunder again

    He's a good bloke though and that's what really matters

    No one will ever forget him smashing Bumrah all over the MCG on Boxing Day... and on top of that he then made Kohli have a mental breakdown. What a legend.

    Mediocre bowlers from both ends trying to tempt the batsman into slogging. Genius

    Oi! chill... he's the GOAT. He's above any sort of criticism

    I'd love to know what % of his 500+ test wickets were from lower order batsmen trying to slog him out of the attack. Genuinely lost count the amount of times he's gone missing on day 5.

    Any chance Lyon actually does something? I thought spinners were picked to take wickets on day 5..

    That one game suspension was the best thing that's happened to Mac Allister. He's been so good lately with how he sets the tempo and his ability to break lines with his passing. Integral player to this system but goes under the radar. Szobo got his rest now too. Couldn't have timed it better...

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    Bruno is an above average player but he's not the creative weapon he was during the first 2 seasons or so at United. His output has dropped off significantly. I think on the balance of things he ends up being a net negative because of his petulance and clueless pressing. He's not the sort of...

    **Official** English Football Season 2024/25

    I wouldn't want Dalot or Bruno but I'd wager he keeps them both (that's based on both being Portuguese and that he's relied on both so far). Mainoo was definitely overplayed last season, reminds me a bit of Bajcetic where the injuries caught up with him. It's a tricky situation. Ragnick hit...

    3pts the important thing. As you know Liverpool have recent form for blowing title races after being ahead at Christmas so just have to stay close.

    Amorim will be a failure at United if he keeps Bruno beyond this season. Gone are the days of him contributing positively to the team. He's the worst captain I've ever seen at that club.

    Injury was inevitable when he plays the amount of minutes he does. Arteta has failed to sign adequate back up which at some point is going to be an uncomfortable conversation.
