Them players mentioned left it all on tge pitch though amd worked hard. Fergie had no time for Beckham lifestyle and Neymar is a lot more hectic

Cantona did on occasion spill off the very edge of the pitch 😂

I take the point though, it would be interesting to know how SAF would get on now with modern players. He seemed to have Rooney on the straight and narrow and he was one of the highest profile players on the planet.

With Neymar you'd have to accept it might only be for a year or 2 and to milk it before it goes sour.

Neymar just doesn't work hard and has a bit of a victim complex.

Rooney, Tevez, Ronaldo... all had faults of their own, but SAF worked with them because they all put a shift in for the team.

Their squad is miles weaker than last season, surely they'll sign a CM and striker tomorrow. Someone like Ander Herrera was a decent player who could come in and play to a good standard, he's not been replaced and seemingly they're not going to replace Lukaku either.

Made some very weird strategic decisions last six years and this seems another summer of them.

I was following on twitter earlier their collective bitching because they thought we were signing Ben Yedder

With Woodward's dealings they will be signing Ben Thatcher

Man Utd are useless at transfers. How much time have they wasted this summer talking and negotiating with Dybala, Fernandes, Eriksson, Mandzukic and possibly others without anything coming of it.

They were quoted £80m for Maguire at the start of the window then end up paying £80m for him at the end of the window! 

Jose was critical of it last year and it doesn't seem to have improved

On the plus side, they've shifted Lukaku. 

If he gets any bigger he won't fit through the door at the San Siro

They're widening the doors on the plans for the new stadium as we speak

I guess Bailly is out for ages, but yeah, that's a lot. If he tries all of the combinations possible from 2 CB's, he could have a new CB pairing each week for half of the season 🤪

Got seven CBs on their books now:

Maguire

Lindelof

Axel

Smalling

Rojo

Eric Bailly

Phil Jones

Must be a record for premier league club to have that many (excluding youth ones) at any one time surely?!

Poorly run club.

They badly need a DOF

If they go on to have a rubbish season Ed Woodward will be under all sorts of pressure

Let's hope he can find the equiliser if they are behind in a big game.

Lovely article on the BBC where there is a discussion around who is the best dressed between rashford and lingard.

Are these guys 12 or something?

No wonder manure are a joke the last few years.
