United, music, and lefty waffling

Early to mid eighties. My Grandad buying me the United top for Christmas. The one with the badge in the middle of the chest and the white bands near the arms. It's the kit that makes me think of Jesper Olsen and Gordon Strachan.

Unpacking a promising summer window for Manchester United Manchester United, under the guidance of a new Ineos-inspired hierarchy, completed five deals that accumulated a total spend of £216 million.

🗣️ The sum of all parts presents a visibly different dynamic within this Manchester United dressing room, with new faces in defence and attack, and an average age of only 23 among the recruits.

"They looked a very very good team, I get the narrative around United... people want to spin whatever narrative they want... That first half performance from Man Utd was every bit a top team."

Journalist asks the Burnley manager a leading, loaded question about #MUFC - Respect to Scott Parker 🫡

Never in doubt! And in such moments, wouldn’t it be nice if suddenly things take a turn for the better. Decent performance, bitty with nerves at times but some good attacks. Two daft moments. But we just needed the bloody win. Mbeumo, Amad, De Ligt very good, Bruno relentless.

I think playing a possession based game with players that struggle under the pressure just leads to it looking like they aren't trying and then it only takes one of them to slightly misplace a pass before it all goes to absolute shit. I think we'd probably do better just lumping the ball up top!

Just watched the Ruben press conference as wanted to see what he said after reading BBC headline hating his players. As per usual it was a misquote. ‘I need 10 minutes, sometimes I want to quit, I don’t like my players, I hate sometimes my kids’…. But then I noticed the journalists name Simon Stone

You're bang on. It seems there are quite a few who feel they can drop their effort/intensity down to 90% against teams outside the top 4 or 5. That has been the one consistent thing over this period.

Yes!! This is the sort of United supporting post I love to see!

I remember with Hughes and Choccy thinking we'll never score enough goals. We were really struggling to find the net. And then a long came Eric. (Granted, things were already on an upward trajectory by that point).

Those Reform nutjobs reminded me:
"Being British is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for a Belgian beer, grabbing an Indian curry or Turkish kebab takeaway, then going home to sit on Swedish furniture & watch American shows on a Japanese TV, while being suspicious of anything foreign."

Pretty soon it's going to be embarrassing to be a writer who hasn't been arrested for opposing genocide.

Yesterday showed the importance of being clinical in front of goal. If Cunha takes one of his chances and/or Bruno puts away the penalty, we’re posting about a hard fought win at a difficult ground after a good performance vs Arsenal.

Massive pressure now on the next 2 games. Must win.

Genuinely who though?? I had thought we may as well give Collyer a go before he was loaned out.

I saw comments bringing Amorim into the conversation so it was more of a reply to that.

For all of those seasons the team had established players from the academy. Kobbie is the closest we have to that at the moment. The fact the best from our academy have been sold is not down to Amorim.

They're probably too young to remember the Fergie days and think every match was like the highlight reels they've seen on YouTube and why can't it be like that now?!

They tend to flip-flop from one narrative to another. From excessive jubilation when winning to utter despair at a loss. (Or in this case, an away draw that we could have been 3-0 up in at half time).

Say what you like. It's good to read a mix of news and views. Don't agree with you on everything and that's the fun of it.

🤪

Lovely idea but utter bullshit that he has said this.

I wouldn't be upset if he stayed. I think he is being sold to get funds so we can sort out the balance of the squad. (ie. sign a DM!)

Remembering Adam Yauch on his birthday

I know United have been poor in the transfer market but I sincerely doubt anyone is buying players for ETH's system!

Improvement

Your annual reminder that the only measure of success in preseason is how few injuries you suffer.

That's it. Not individual or collective performances, not scores or results, it's minutes in legs and staying healthy and nothing else. #MUFC

You'll know it's a done deal when the press suddenly start changing their view on Mbuemo being any good.

Bit harsh blaming United for this one?! Although, when it comes to ticketing they do have a lot to answer for.

I think (hope?) Bruno is opening dialogue with the Saudis to move at the end of next season. I just can't see this season as an end to his time at United. The only reason I see him going now is because the club want the money.
