Mourinho United thread 2016-17

[Arnau]

I think micky will play on a wing, so Rooney can plau behind Zlatan or team with double 9. Micky is really great, very few weakness, play with both feet, can pass, can dribble, can score, can defend...

 

[Pogba4Now]

I would prefer

Zlatan
Martial Micki RW (maybe Rashford if we do not get anyone)

Rooney: MLS or Everton.

 

[Pogba4Now]

I love him but he has not met expectations. He has been very inconsistent for Man U.

 

[Pogba4Now]

His EPL stats:
15/16: 6 goals 7 assists
14/15: 9 goals 4 assists
13/14: 6 goals 7 assists (Half season Chelsea)
12/13: 11 goals, 17 assists (Chelsea)
11/12: 6 goals 11 assists (Chelsea)

He has not reached anywhere near his 2 seasons at Chelsea. I don't like to use stats to compare performance but for someone like him who does nothing in defense and plays just behind the striker, he needs to be scoring and assisting more.

I don't know why they choose Ashlee Yung for commercials.

Most likely new jersey. Not officially revealed yet but these 2 pics are from the official kit:

I think you should send Schweinsteiger back to Bayern for 5m.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Why do you need him? I think he did well last season but he was injured. I think we should keep him. I think the midfield is fine TBH. We recently bought Herrera, Schneiderlin and Schweini. Herrera had a very good first season. Fellaini needs to be ditched. Most of the 27 m we have spent on him is in his Afro hair.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

I don't think your midfield is fine

 

[Pogba4Now]

Herrera is good, underrated. Schneiderlin is a good defensive midfielder and passing range is very good. Schweinsteiger is past it but still good. Rooney, the AMF is also past it but still good, as seen in the Euros except Iceland, and the last part of last season when he was not a striker.

Kit looks ugly ...
Regarding Pogba, I think United and maybe Real are cooling down the negotiations to reduce the price ... Pogba euro performances another factor too

 

[Pogba4Now]

Anyone watched the friendly Vs Wigan? I watched 3/4 of the game. Micki seemed good, quick feet, nice through balls, Bailly was solid. Andreas Pereira was good and scored. I think we should give Pereira a run in the first team. He is talented. Januzaj should fuck off. He is still 21 but I hate him for his diving and I think he is overrated. He is a very limited player. Can dribble and is fast but thats about it.

Madrid just realised he is not even worth the half Juventus demands and his position is very well covered as well.

 

[poet11]

There is no need for him. Should've been more serious towards getting Kante but he may have opted for Chelsea, anyway. Its difficult to say what to improve with Real's squad. Maybe a CB now that Morata is most likely staying.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

CB is covered with Varane. They should just chill this summer.

Varane has knee issues, right? If they move Nacho to Roma they should bite for someone.

Not Koscielny.

 

[Arnau]

Varane? He is always injured. When he was 20 he was better player than now, poor progression.

Real Madrid has in Vallejo one of the best CB prospects in Europe.

But they sent him on loan to Frankfurt. Should do something to stimulate the squad.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Manchester United are set to make an official bid for Paul Pogba, according to Sky Italy.

It is understood United will make an opening offer of around £87m (104m Euros) for the France international midfielder.

Officials from the club are meeting Juventus directors and the 23-year-old's agent Mino Raiola on Tuesday.

Pogba has already agreed personal terms of a salary of £10.92m (13m Euros) a year, and his path to Old Trafford was seemingly cleared last week when Real Madrid withdrew from the race for his signature.

If he already agreed personal terms, it is most likely (but not necessarily) a done deal, unless Juventus are looking for 200 million pounds and Man U can't afford.

I don't know what to think of this transfer. I think he is overpriced. I also question if he can play at the same level in the EPL compared to Serie A because Serie A has fallen considerably over the years.

 

[kp41]

With Mou, I'm more confident with this transfer ... hopefully not Veron v2

 

[kp41]

Oh Raiola denied this ... but he spoke with goal.com
