RT @shaunconnolly85: Regarding #MUFC and the expected sensationalism across the board. Manchester United supporters are not celebrating d….

Luiz Junior & Atubolu probably 2 id put forward, but again not really playing at the top level for long so you can’t judge the mental aspect.

I like Moritz Nicolas, John Victor & Tzolakis as relatively cheap GKs that can challenge Onana w/o the pressure of a leading GK. but in terms of outright signing a #1. I feel the market is very weak for distinguished keepers—heavy push for analytics needed there.

Alexsandro vs Reims.

funny seeing both sides of any argument on Twitter, as per its consistently 0–100. but the second someone points out a positive or negative depending the other side only digs their feet in deeper…not everything has to be reactionary (even when you think it’s not).

Hopefully Ineos are inspired on the back of that to push for Baleba, would make such a huge difference (genuinely so fucking huge) to where we finish end of season. some really good signs tho, as losses go the players continue similar and the wins will follow.

Can’t speak more highly of Cunha & Mbeumo today. Really good game, the chances were there—that understanding will only get better & better especially with Sesko in between them, exciting times.

Hojlund literally has deals lined up, we’ve been trying to get anything for Onana all summer, it’ll likely take a loan due to his NBV…this may force the loan.

Amorim shoving out Onana & Hojlund and United fans crying like this is a bad thing 😭.

Delighted it’s Dalot RWB, some of the best play we’ve seen pre season is with him in the squad. Shaw vs Saka & no Sesko my biggest concerns.

So if signing someone worth 40+mil stops us signing Baleba next summer personally I’d agree.

Don’t think we spend big on a CM either unless we shift Case, likely best we do is a loan. would be nice to see us sign a CB—people can argue the squad needs x or y but Ineos will be thinking of building the best squad for 2/3 yrs time, not just a short term vision.

You’d guess United are waiting to see if interest in Onana picks up once he’s fit as to why they haven’t pulled the trigger on their “younger GK”. still expect a lot to happen—which may seem reactive but imo is being thoroughly thought through.

Samardzic this is the season, wow

it’s just to bait the press (an affective bounce pass)—yes you’d rather it be a DM so they can equally turn & carry but that DM wouldn’t be playing CCB the rest of the 90 🤷‍♂️. he’s adapted it last few months to only use it in deep build up, it’s no longer really important tbh.

and so the push begins

Calma, United being respectful because of Brightons opener today . Talks will resume soon 🙏.

They’re looking for a CCB? I hope they don’t come in for De Ligt

Andoni Iraola has done incredibly well, especially factoring in the fact they’ve Adams & Smith kneecapping them somewhat. perhaps sitting deep more then they should be, but expect them to do very well against majority of the league this season.
