It breaks my heart to see city are being linked with Isco while we chase another 7ft player like decooure from Watford.

We are linked with Neymer, does that make you happy?


2.) 30 Mar 2018 12:14:37
I’d happily take Decourey. Good player who gives his all. Underrated.


3.) 30 Mar 2018 12:15:40
Because Doucoure plays for Watford doesn’t make him a poor standard of player. Tevez came to us from a loan at West Ham, lukaku from everton. How many times has signing a “world class” player actually worked out for us recently. Eg Di Maria, Falcao, Sanchez and pogba ain’t hit the heights yet.


4.) 30 Mar 2018 12:53:39
Where would they fit Isco in? Or they going to move on the lad they paid 60 mill for who barely plays.


5.) 31 Mar 2018 13:05:38
I think Ndidi at Leicester is other one for us to take a look at.

Isco is great, but if he was all that Madrid would keep the home grown golden boy

We need 2 full backs, a centre half and two central midfielders. Up top we have more than enough.


6.) 03 Apr 2018 13:39:29
Schmid,

So you believe the Isco to city rumours but ignore any rumours linking United to top players, anyone would think you are deliberately choosing to do that to be negative.


7.) 04 Apr 2018 01:59:55
Isco isn't home grown they bought him at a young age of malaga i think it was.

And to make things worse, we have our world class striker, Weghorst, actually touching the "Welcome to Anfield" sign like all Liverpool players do.
What was going through his thick brain when he did that? And considering the zero contribution he's made since his arrival, how can ETH persevere with him? I said previously that we could've bought many players who would've done a much better job, also, our youngsters deserve a chance ahead of this clown.
Red Man mentioned it at the time and was mocked by all, I think its time ETH admits he got it wrong and take Weghorst out of the team and squad and promote someone from our u23 team. Anything is better than this fraud of a player.

2.) 07 Mar 2023 15:25:17
He has said multiple times before that he has dreamt of playing for liverpool

“I always found Liverpool very special. I still get goosebumps from ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’. There are other great English clubs too, and I always liked Milan because so many Dutch played there, ” Weghorst told DAZN in 2020.

And in 2018, he told De Telegraaf: “I’ve dreamt of [playing for Liverpool] since childhood. ”.


3.) 07 Mar 2023 15:27:04
Behead him the dirty rotter. Really you must have little to moan about.


4.) 07 Mar 2023 15:30:52
Eth comments were clear the stats are clear. We have scored more per game when he has played than when he has not.
Eth has said he is making a valuable contribution.
I'm not a big fan but the manager is and we have done very well with him in the team up until Sunday. We score more goals as a team when he plays. That's a fact but you want to ignore that. Thankfully we have a professional in charge.
We could not have bought anybody else at the time there was no money available.


5.) 07 Mar 2023 16:29:32
Ridiculous to touch that sign imo, I don’t care what his childhood dream was he plays for united, concentrate on the business at hand not think of your boyhood club.


6.) 07 Mar 2023 17:20:12
Relax its only a game we just had a very day dat at the office. Some of the players thought they could easily one against one of thr best liverpool sides.

Sometimes put your hands up. and say we didn't do our jobs properly and move on! .

We all know that we're couple of players short of challenging and I am so happy this year in lterms of results and winning a cup.


7.) 07 Mar 2023 17:55:30
Would you all be happy if he kissed the Liverpool badge before he went out? You should understand the significance of him touching the sign, for many years that was touted as special for Liverpool players and an intimidation of visitors.

I can take a desire to play for Liverpool, doing the equivalent of kissing the badge is not acceptable.


8.) 07 Mar 2023 17:56:31
We had no money to spend thanks to the Glazers so he had to get a body in and he choose him. Everyone knows he ain’t the greatest and probably will not be here beyond the summer but at least he tries and puts in a shift unlike some others I could mention.


9.) 07 Mar 2023 18:39:36
So Wout has cleared it up, he was stopping Van Dijk from touching the sign, not touching it, so you can all out your knives away. So funny when we lose a game, surprised I’ve not seen Ten Hag out yet.


10.) 07 Mar 2023 19:56:25
I’m not happy that Weggy ‘touched’ sign but it didn’t lose us the game. OK a Keano in the team (oh we don’t have one) should have pulled him aside and stuck one on him for being a dick but……life goes on.

12.) 07 Mar 2023 20:52:08
Interesting posts, but if I sign for United and I support Liverpool, then I don't go touching the Welcome to Anfield sign before going out to play such an important game. Keane would have decked him and rightly so. But it seems that it doesn't matter to a lot of posters, it should as the player in question should've been concentrating on beating Liverpool, not doing a museum tour of Anfield.


13.) 07 Mar 2023 21:15:09
Ken, I find your post on "beheading" tastless and totally unnecessary. Your sarcasm knows no bounds, and I'm sure you might have read that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. You seem to enjoy knocking a lot of people on here, and to be honest, it's getting boring and tedious. I've been on the banter page for over 10 years, and I think it's time I left as no one deserves this treatment, and contrary to what you keep implying, I have plenty to do with my life, so enjoy insulting people. Over and out.


14.) 08 Mar 2023 06:31:31
Ken

You keep insulting posters for holding a different opinion, why not give it a rest. It’s a banter site, different opinions are allowed. It almost seems like some want the site to run like a dressing room with no dissent and just unbridled positivity.

You can see you have got rid of AAA now, a very long standing respected poster, to ensure your opinion is the only one heard. Sad day for the site when it goes like this.


15.) 08 Mar 2023 06:36:44
I nearly left after Ken’s personal insults, now it seems AAA is leaving after 10 years because of them. AAA is a long standing poster, formerly No Midfield, who I have found mature and thoughtful over the years. I hope he changes his mind. I don’t want personal insults for expressing an opinion, nor should anyone expect it.

The Ed’s and site perhaps need to reflect on what they want as banter on here, what type of posters their advertisers want to appeal to, how the site is viewed by posters. At the moment it seems we are allowed one opinion that matches Ken or get insulted, if it is the direction then it has become a lesser site.

{Ed033's Note - The Eds made a decision about username, Ken. ;


16.) 08 Mar 2023 09:11:04
AAA you're going to leave for that? Dear me.
Red Man, is ken's comment not 'banter'? Dear me.
On live chat I've been called a in breed, co*k sucker, shirt lifter and that's only pointing out the more palatable insults but "behead the rotter". that's it I'm leaving, I feel so hurt. The comments made to me cannot be considered as banter but kens comment? Come on fellas surely it's a tad flakey to consider leaving for that isn't it?

{Ed014's Note - I’m hopeful that AAA is not leaving and continues to post.

You have been Ken’s “sidekick” and I’ve not been impressed with you either to be honest.

This page needs to get back to genuine banter and discussion not the garbage that has been spouted by Ken in particular!


17.) 08 Mar 2023 09:39:33
Ken's sidekick? Because I happen to agree with some of his opinions?
Ed014, I don't come here to impress as you clearly don't either to be honest. ;)

{Ed014's Note - it’s not the agreeing it’s the manner in which you post.

Just try not to get dragged further down to his level.


18.) 08 Mar 2023 11:44:46
Put the handbags away. Everyone gives a takes a bit of stick every now again rightly or wrongly. AAA it was only a couple of weeks ago you and United Addict tried to paint me in a negative light by saying I wouldn't have the same view on Fred if he was a local lad. I wasn't happy about that but I'm not going to stop posting.

I do find Kens stance of "The manager knows best so no point having an opinion" is incredibly counter intuitive to creating a forum of discussion but he also adds a lot to the conversation in my opinion. Again he can post what he wants and the eds decide if it goes up.

In terms of what he said here, in my view it's probably the tamest thing he'll say all season, but if you were upset by it no one can deny how you feel.

After a horrendous result, there's enough people looking to drive division and reveal cracks in the team. I genuinely don't think Weghorst touching a sign is a big deal at all. It's not great and I'm sure he won't do it again but we shouldn't be going after him for this.

Even though we don't agree on everything AAA you shouldn't stop posting mate. Everyone contributes to the site and that's the charm and why we keep coming back.

It's been a tough few days but we'll look back on this season in a positive light I'm sure.

What he did last night is what’s elected. I’m with Mumbles. Last night is the exception to the Fred rule. There’s plenty of players than can run and consistently pass well. Fred will never be one of them.

AaA anything to say about jed spence or bissouma this season?
Fred made a good pass we are all delighted with that.
But djemba djemba had 3 assists in 4 games at one point too you know.

Great ball AAA. 1 in 100 isn't a bad return ?.


5.) 17 Feb 2023 11:11:22
I would not have altered my opinion if we had won 3 2 or lost 3 2.
I throughly enjoyed that game.
I sort of had forgotten what it's like to enjoy watching my team.
We went out with the intention of winning.
My oh my what a turn around in mentality.
Than God we have got rid of most of the people that were destroying our club and all it stood for in terms of football.
We have a lot of work to do still it's great to be enjoying watching again.


6.) 17 Feb 2023 12:12:53
It was a very good ball AAA and he did his job very well shadowing De Jong especially the second half.

A few years ago when I posted how poor of a player Lingard was, my little stalker Slunkey Red would post a GOTCHA post every time he scored for West Ham. He hasn't posted about Lingard in a long time funnily enough.

AAA, my opinions on Fred are based on his performances iv watched over the last 5 years. Moments yesterday he couldn't complete a simple pass during a counter attack in the first half. Laying on the ground outside the box swiping his legs giving away silly free kicks etc. These moments could have cost us.

He did well yesterday I have to say. Winning the ball and man marking an opponent are attributes he excels at. But I have a huge problem watching a professional footballer unable to play a 5-20 yard pass. Even when his passes succeed, the player on the receiving end has to check their run or its never neat and tidy.

Feel free to mention me in the future when Fred plays well, it won't be that frequent.


7.) 17 Feb 2023 13:45:43
The bar is on the floor.


8.) 17 Feb 2023 15:15:47
I think he has had 1 very very bad game this season against Leeds at home, it was one of the worst performances I’ve ever seen. Fortunately next to Casemiro he looks a totally different player and that is where he’s been most of the season.


9.) 17 Feb 2023 15:27:18
Fred first was absolutely atrocious with the ball and giving away cheap foul after foul.


10.) 17 Feb 2023 16:02:03
Really gigg's I thought he'd been on bench must of season unless we have no other option. But he did start v Brighton and Brentford 1st 2 games.


11.) 17 Feb 2023 16:14:26
Chris, it was the same lame excuses in regards to our previous mediocre manager and some mediocre players. Lingard got a pass because "he puts a shift in" imagine effort being enough to blind some people.

Ole finished 2nd in a 1 horse race and lost a final amd was lauded for bringing the good times back.

Fred plays a nice through ball and I'm getting called out like he won the B'alon d'Or.

{Ed014's Note - just ask him if Fred was playing for West Ham, would he be laughing or crying out for the club to buy him.

I really really hope you sign him up to a new long term contract.


12.) 17 Feb 2023 16:59:06
Fred's now been key vs Newcastle, City, Tottenham and Barcelona to get good results and control games. Had 1 bad game against Leeds.

Who does he have to perform against for people to say "yeah he's a good player who probably should be around 1st off the bench midfielder"?

Like, where are you getting better rotation players?


13.) 17 Feb 2023 16:32:46
Ask him yourself ed014???.

{Ed014's Note - ?? no he’s nasty!


14.) 17 Feb 2023 16:49:12
Ed, I asked him and United Addict to pop around the other teams pages to see who would take Fred, I wouldn't imagine not many would. Him and McTominay were probably the worst pairing in the league for 2 years.

{Ed014's Note - totally agree mate and I think I was being a little unkind to West Ham!


15.) 17 Feb 2023 19:04:08
How did we get 2nd if they were the worst pairing in england?

Look how Jesse tore it up for West Ham since you like that example, if he was so rubbish? Perhaps the standards at United are simply much higher?


16.) 17 Feb 2023 19:07:23

He gives 100% and he deserves credit where credit is due.


18.) 18 Feb 2023 19:37:01
Yes Ken, he’s come off the bench in most games to play next to Casemiro and has played quite well. As you well know Casemiro didn’t play against Brighton or Brentford and the whole team was poor, don’t think Fred stood out as being any worse than the others.


19.) 19 Feb 2023 11:18:43
Fred has a wonderful infectious smile and nice teeth. That’s about all I can say that’s positive about him though. One bad game against Leeds? Not his first season here is it! He’s crap. Gives the ball away too much for a possession based team and we already have to account for Bruno being imperfect in that regard too.

We are hopefully heading into more positive ownership territory at United by the summer. Does anyone really think with an open chequebook approach the likes of Fred would still be around.

We paid over £50m for a dud. Say what you want about City but he wouldn’t have survived a season there regardless what they paid for him.


 

 

23 Jan 2023 10:05:04
Looking at our team, we have the same problems we've had for years. Ddg as goalkeeper is holding the team back. And at centre forward, we've not replaced RVP, and that's been nearly 10 years. The second problem we have is that we do not believe in our ability as we're still lacking leaders in the team.
As long as the above remain, we'll win nothing.

Rome wasn't built in a day. EtH has only been here for a short period of time and the work he has to do to take us back to the top is extensive.

{Ed014's Note - I’ve just said that elsewhere Shappy. Once he gets the quality I’m pretty sure we’ll see a whole new United.

I’ve no idea how this season will end but imagine next season, City being City, Liverpool and Chelsea coming back to life, Newcastle strengthening and you and us in the mix! Scary tough!


2.) 23 Jan 2023 10:37:26
If we react to this set back the same way that we did the Brighton/ Brentford start then we should remain confident for the season. Title challenge (If it was ever there! ) is gone, however the drive for the top 4 and champions league is in a good place.
Top 4, along with hopefully new owners willing to invest will mean that we will kick on again next year.
We have some players that will perform this year with EtH development who should be moved on in the summer when we are in a better place. AWB has performed well, however yesterday showed his major flaws and we need to look at a higher performer to challenge Dalot. CM to complement the existing group of Casimero, Erikson and Fernandes. whether that could be FdJ, Enzo Fernandes or someone similar.
Striker, I am convinced with Rashford, Garnacho, Antony (needs to kick on but will develop) we have a good base. What we need now is a Vlahovic, Ramos, Kane to give us a proper main striker.
With some of the sales that I expect in the summer, McTominy/ AWB/ Maguire/ potentially Sancho I think we can bring in some funds to support.
Progression is being made and we are ahead of where we thought we would be.


3.) 23 Jan 2023 10:50:05
Ed014, Arsenal, Newcastle and ourselves are in the ascendency, with Arsenal a couple of years ahead of United and Newcastle. That said United and Newcastle have access to greater funds so should with good recruitment be able to bridge that gap next season.

City will be there or there abouts, they have the best squad and the best manager in the league. They just seem to be a side that Pep is trying to evolve with Haaland and they are having a few teething issues. That'll be sorted for next season.

Chelsea though who knows what is happening, they are spending money like its going out of fashion. They seem to be buying an interesting mix of young players for the future and some for the here and now. However, they still don't seem to have spent on the three biggest weaknesses their team have. They need to sort out their first choice keeper, both Mendy and Kepa are capable of world class form and ridiculous gaffes in the same match. They need a consistent presence between the sticks. They have an aging midfield held together with celotape and hope. While they also have no strikers in their squad. The final question with Chelsea is will they stick with Potter.

Liverpool for me though seem to be the team that need the most work, with serious questions over whether they will have the funds to do so. They have several players whose form has dramatically dropped off recently, with it unlikely to bounce back. VvD doesn't look the same player since his injury, he'll be 32 at the start of next season so is unlikely to ever be the same player. Gomez has similarly not returned to his pre-injury form. Matip and Konate continue to keep the physio busy as well. While they have no competition for TAA. They need at least 1 CB and serious competition for TAA at RB.

The midfield looks decimated. Milner needs to leave. Henderson and Fabinho are a shadow of their former selves and seem unlikely to recover that form. While Thiago is soon to turn 32 and continues to suffer with injuries. They need a minimum of 2 maybe even 3 new midfielders.

The loss of Mane and the drop off in Firminio's form has left only Salah from the title winning front three. Diaz and Jota keep having injury issues while Darwin Nunez and Gakpo seem to be struggling under the pressure missing chances they would have scored comfortably at their previous clubs. They could do with another senior pro who is still in their peak to help take the pressure off Salah and guide the younger players.

That's at least 1 CB, a RB, a minimum of 2 midfielders and possibly a forward. At current rates that's comfortably 200m. Liverpool are the team I feel might spend a couple of season's out of the top four as they rebuild.

{Ed014's Note - agree on Liverpool but was thinking more of Klopp’s ability as a manager but their drop off has been the most startling.

I think Boely seems keen to stick with Potter and I’m sure that will bear fruits and he had Brighton playing such good football with Danny Welbeck up top! ?

You’ve had greater funds for an eternity Shappy but you’ve not spent it wisely, I think Newcastle are showing themselves to be adept on that front with considerably more money available.


4.) 23 Jan 2023 11:03:07
The first 11 is a decent side but when you have injuries and suspensions like we did yesterday we lack depth in the squad.
The second half felt like we went back 18 months with the old McFred combination in midfield and AWB at the back.
I thought we played well first half, but we were so sloppy in the second half.
Eriksen dwelling on the ball to long, Bruno constantly giving the ball away with silly passes.
The closing down wasn't as sharp, we seem to stand off and let them pick and choose there passes.
We desperately need another top midfielder, a world class forward that can score 20+ a season (Kane), a new right back and another centre back if Maguire is going.
Ten Hag is definitely the right man for the job!
Top 4 and the EFL cup would certainly satisfy me this season and then we can build on next season with hopefully new owners in place what will back the manager.
On to Wednesday. come on you reds!


5.) 23 Jan 2023 11:05:55
Ed014, The one weakness Klopp seems to have is his loyalty to his players. He gets absolutely everything out of his players and they are fully committed to him as he is committed to them.

However, that has lead to issues at both Mainz and Dortmund where he kept playing the players that had served him well even when they were clearly declining. He also didn't give the younger players enough game time so they were ready to take over from the senior pro's as they declined. Leaving him with a choice between young players who weren't ready or senior pro's past their best. He seems to have done the same at Liverpool.

Even if Liverpool find the funds to sign a CB and a couple of top midfielders are you confident that Klopp will drop the likes of VvD, Henderson, Fabinho etc?

{Ed014's Note - Fabinho is young enough to get back to previous levels mate when he was the best of the best. This latest injury could well do VVD a favour too.

It’s all subjective though but Henderson, Milner, Ox, Keita in midfield are what’s killing them with Thiago trying to do everything but achieving very little.

Thank God he's gone. Since fergie left, we've had umpteen managers, loads of good and rubbish players bought and sold. But thank God the only continuity is Phil Jones is still at the club earning £125k a week and no one knows what he does and why he's still here.

So, on the day that a bright, skilful 18yr old announces his arrival with a stunning winning goal, we get Ronaldo being the self obsessed dick that he is, and trying to overshadow everything and making it all about himself.
To talk to piers Morgan out of all people, is an insult to the club and all the hard working people within it. And it's a major insult to the fans.
Many on here do not like the Glazers, and we've voiced our opinions, but for one of our players to go out publicly and disrespect the club, manager, staff and players in this way, is unforgivable.
One think Mr Ronaldo should remember, he didn't make United who we are, but United made him the player that he is.
Get rid of him and release a dignified statement and move on.

Attack Attack Attack

1.) 14 Nov 2022 08:32:14
He should have gone in tbe Summer.

However let’s focus on the positives this weekend:

Anaemic display but fought for a win, with tbe emergence of a special talent in Garnacho.

Amad wonderful for Sunderland

Hannibal doing well at Birmingham

Alvaro Fernandez and Ethan Laird holding their own.

Promising youngsters coming through such as Mainoo, Jurado, McNeill, oyedobe and Kwambala.

Yes, the club has been stagnant for 10 years but things now looking more optimistic.

Plus a boss who is finally in charge and improving players - as well as making it clear which players he doesn’t want (Maguire)

Let’s hope Ronaldo goes asap so we can bring in a striker in Jab.


2.) 14 Nov 2022 08:44:58
I disagree AAA. No need for a dignified response no need for any response at all.
If it was up to me at the club I'd ignore it and him completely.
Make no statement at all publicly.
I'd send him a letter with a fine and suspension. Remove him from all club communications etc disengage all contact unless initiated by him or his representatives and place him with the reserves until he is sold. If he doesn't show up don't pay him.
The only thing ronaldo craves is attention. Stop talking to him and about him. Stop stop giving him attention.
Carry on ignoring him until a club comes in for him and if they don't then just ignore him and make no further comment to him or about him.


3.) 14 Nov 2022 08:55:13
All of you really need to get your head out off wherever it is stuck. Bad training facilities, poor state of old trafford, leaking roof, no development outside of Old Trafford. isn't all this the same things that all of you have been protesting against the Glazers? No investment in the team? hasn't this been the damn agenda of all the rubbish protests? What have we done since fergie left. A big fat 0, that's what. He has come out and spoken the truth. He has exposed the state of affairs at the club. Most of all he has exposed the Glazers. You all should be thankful to him rather than abusing him. You keep bigging up kids who have done nothing so far. The truth is there hasn't been a talent from our academy since 1992, 30 years. There has to be a reason.
Jose, Zlatan and now Ronaldo all have said the same thing about the club and all have the same thing in common. GUTS and BALLS to say how it is. You backed the wrong people against Jose, you criticized Zlatan and now the same thing with Ronaldo. If you listen to him, if the club listen to him, it wouldn't take another 20 years before we challenge for major trophies. Otherwise you keep celebrating 93rd minute winners against trash like Fulham and get your asses kicked by the likes of City. Top 4 is the priority, i am ashamed by this statement coming from a Manchester United fan.


4.) 14 Nov 2022 09:04:10
Cannot wait to see the back of him. We've played worse with him in the team than without. Even Juventus started down a slippery slope when they signed him. There was no need to go after the manager no matter the circumstances. He knows exactly what he is doing, saying the club is holding him hostage when there was literally not one single European club interested in taking him. Absolute ****er I hope I never see him in a Utd shirt again.

This is a fantastic opportunity for the club to move on without him now. Sack him off to train alone. If he wants to leave, let him go without a penny.

The club will come out of this looking great, the timing of it couldn't have been any better after winning 2-1 whilst an 18 year old scores the winner.

6 points off city with a game in hand, would you have taken that at the start of the year? ETH, is building something special.

To the future, not the past.

UA,

I thought Ronaldo made some fair points about the club, but crossed the line when the said he that had no respect for EtH.

It will be interesting to see how this pans out, as there can be no way he can return to the club. One Sports lawyer has suggested that Utd would be within their rights to terminate his contract due to him bring the club into disrepute etc, as well as possible preventing him from joining another club until sufficient compensation has been made.


7.) 14 Nov 2022 09:14:20
The wonder if a phrase containing the words 'mutual consent' will be being used in the next few weeks.


8.) 14 Nov 2022 09:14:48
United Addict, I can see your point. We literally have protests every home game and even away fans chanting Glazers out yesterday at Fulham. Everyone knows that the Glazers have run down the club to its current rot. Gary Neville has been saying what Ronaldo said for ages and you don't see fans insulting him.

However, you need to realize one thing. Ronaldo only ever thinks about himself. If he didn't want to leave, he 100% would not have done that interview, balls or not. And where is the wisdom in saying what he said about the manager?

Also kinda disrespectful of you to refer to Fulham as trash. Not only are they a Premier League club, but they are also in the top 10. I wonder how you regard lower league and non-league sides if Fulham is trash.


9.) 14 Nov 2022 09:14:49
Ken you have it spot on. CR7 behaving like an unruly child. We owe him nothing. He owes us and the club everything!


10.) 14 Nov 2022 09:45:08
Thus is about the giant ego of CR7 being unable to cope without being the star of the team any more, he's the biggest name he's isn't the most important player now, this is about not being able to cope with his fading skills.

He's always been about himself more than the club and for a long time that could be endured by his teams because he delivered. He isn't delivering any more and this season has well and truly been humiliating for a man whose self importance is off the charts.

I don't even link this to the Glazers because his behaviour his been that of a toddler and thisbisnt an isolated incident. The didn't make him leave the game early in preseason, sit sulking on the bench for the benefit of the cameras, walk out early that led to being left out as punishment by Ten Hag.

Real were glad to let him go, June couldn't get rid of him quick enough despite a massive outlay and we fell for the trap of the past it superstar.

I also don't think fans really are slating him for saying the facilities aren't up to standard the are slating him for his behaviour, for his undermining the coaches and manager.

He hasn't got what he wanted, which is to be the centre of attention and now he's being a brat, a brat who isn't delivering in the football sense and isn't worth the hassle. If any doubts existed as to whether Ronaldo was a self absorbed egotistical twit he's ended it.

Get him out of OT and he's not worthy of mention alongside Edwards, Best, Charlton, Robson, Scholes as a United Legend. He can sit on shelf of United Bellends.


11.) 14 Nov 2022 09:22:54
UA, you've completely missed the point as per usual.

There are some things he said in the interview that have a ring of truth to them.

But that is not why he did the interview. He isn't trying to force the Glazers hands to pay for a new swimming pool or a lick of paint around Carrington.

He did the interview because he has been unable to get a move away from the club to a UCL club. Nothing more, nothing less.

He hasn't made that interview with the club's best interests at heart, it was a typically self-indulgent, self-obsessed temper tantrum from a player who cannot take it that his powers are waning and he isn't the centre of the footballing universe anymore.

I'd suggest you remove your head from Ronaldo's derriere, take a few deep breaths and gain a little perspective of the player/ person he is now.


12.) 14 Nov 2022 09:24:32
Nail on head there Ken. So disappointed in him but not surprised.


13.) 14 Nov 2022 09:27:58
Other people's money eh. Ignore him completely, fine him a week yet continue to pay him upwards of a million quid a week only to loiter with intent in the (substandard) facilities? Sounds alright to me.


14.) 14 Nov 2022 09:51:34
Ronaldo made a lot of perfectly valid comments. What bothers the majority of Utd fans is the way he did it.


15.) 14 Nov 2022 10:12:58
I don't think he owed the club anything fizz nor do the club owe him anything.
But he is contracted so should behave in a different manner.
The power is in his hands to have his contract terminated but he wants to have it all on his terms.
Just ignore him.


16.) 14 Nov 2022 10:15:14
UA.
Did you say no investment in the team?
Glazers have invested more on the team than Amy other owners in world football.


17.) 14 Nov 2022 10:40:13
Salford he may have his opinions and he is entitled to them. He is not entitled to express them in the way that he has imo. So I agree with you.
Just noise he is petulant and above his station.
He may have been a great player but he is only a player.
To run down your manager and club publicly is out of order imo.
Leave and talk after you leave.
If he wants to leave then he has to reduce his demands to facilitate that departure.
The ball is in his court.


18.) 14 Nov 2022 10:51:44
No investment in the team? Yet the player you are defending is the highest earner amongst a squad with the highest wage bill in the premier league.


19.) 14 Nov 2022 11:17:08
This would be bad coming from anybody but it’s coming from someone who is being paid more in a week than the majority of us will earn in a decade by this club that are ‘disrespecting him’. He’s a joke, and UA, he has some good points and if he cared about the points he made he wouldn’t have done it like this, he cares about Ronaldo, and he’s managed to find a journalist embarrassing enough to facilitate this sh*tshow, it says it all.


20.) 14 Nov 2022 12:35:56
I expect EtH will deal with this appropriately, he will not let ronaldo ruin the culture of the first team squad.

For once Ronaldo is not the man in charge, and he doesn't like it.


21.) 14 Nov 2022 12:58:37
Ronaldo lost my respect a long time ago.
To even contemplate going to your local rivals says everything about the man

His ego is the problem.

He also has never been interested in any team only himself and records.

Good riddance and now hopefully Argentina win the World Cup as that would really mess with his head.

Dead right Betty. We seem to keep making these mistakes and we don't learn. The club, manager, owners are a joke.

Beast, you called it absolutely right. If De Gea hadn't made unbelievable saves, we will be looking at a 2 or 3 nil scoreline. I hate the passionless, clueless displays. I hate the lack of cohesion in the team. This result is not a good result, one goal for Seville and we have to score two. Even if we score first, we will still be extremely nervous.
I would say it is advantage Seville.
But the most ridiculous post i'd the one from 12daysofhemida. "A huge amount of us have got used to success", "We have to be practical we are still in a rebuilding phase", "Short termism and harking back to the good old days do not benefit the club". These are exactly the type of comments that drive me potty. How could you get too used to success? So shall we have a few years of rubbish performances as we don't want to be to used to success? Utter tripe. Then he mentions we are still rebuilding, we have been rebuilding for five years. A good business doesn't allow its performance to deteriorate, then start rebuilding. All the top clubs are in a constant state of rebuilding. Harking back to the old times? History is what defines you, and history is what you learn from and improve. So when you talk about harking back to the old times, you're basically telling us that we might as well throw away our history.
If you allow standards to drop and mediocrity to set in, then we might as well pack our bags and go home. That's not the philosophy of the club I've supported for over 50 years. we were built on attacking entertaining football with all the right values. Unfortunately, we are losing these values.

Ken, I find your post on "beheading" tastless and totally unnecessary. Your sarcasm knows no bounds, and I'm sure you might have read that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. You seem to enjoy knocking a lot of people on here, and to be honest, it's getting boring and tedious. I've been on the banter page for over 10 years, and I think it's time I left as no one deserves this treatment, and contrary to what you keep implying, I have plenty to do with my life, so enjoy insulting people. Over and out.

Interesting posts, but if I sign for United and I support Liverpool, then I don't go touching the Welcome to Anfield sign before going out to play such an important game. Keane would have decked him and rightly so. But it seems that it doesn't matter to a lot of posters, it should as the player in question should've been concentrating on beating Liverpool, not doing a museum tour of Anfield.

Hi DLIB, no one is pointing fingers at one individual, but the point Red Man was making is that our captain should not be showing his disappointment at being played wide. As I said in my post above, Bruno should be playing down the middle with rashford on the left and Sancho or Garnacho or Antony on the right. That would've allowed another midfielder instead of playing Weghorst who is one of the most bizarre signings United have ever made. We could've played a youngster and he would've been better.
We could've even dropped Weghorst and played Shaw and Malacia which would've kept Salah in check.
I think ETH got it totally wrong, but he doesn't do that very often, so, we move on.
Finally, watching Souness telling us that we've been lucky as we've only lost 2 in 25 games, made me nearly smash the tele. He forgot that Liverpool conceded 5 goals in 20 mins against Real Madrid 12 days ago. These things happen.

I'm not sure why he's still playing the useless Weghorst at all and pushing our most creative player out wide.

It makes no sense. Weghorst does nothing, if you want a player just to run around like a chicken without a head, then there are 50 of them in the lower leagues we could have got in, and most will do a better job than Weghorst.

I think ETH got his tactics totally wrong today. Weghorst should not have featured and Sabitzer should have played to pack the midfield.

In addition, the choice of Dalot over AWB was wrong as we needed a right back who can defend.

Bad day in the office, but we move on.

We don't know what FDJ is thinking, but it seems that he's very happy at Barca. A very good player, but if he's coming against his will, then stay well clear.
