🗣 Fernandes on Pogba:
"When I arrived, he was injured. I saw him recovering and training on the pitch away from us. He was calling me sometimes and said: I'm seeing the games, I'm seeing your movement, don't worry. When I'm fit, I will show you that I can find you."

Jadon Sancho has 20 assists this season - you know who will be celebrating his arrival the most? Anthony Martial.
He's lived through Mkhitaryan and Lingard down the flanks to now being surrounded by Fernandes, Pogba, Rashford, Greenwood and Sancho.
✍ The Athletic reporting that Paul Pogba will stay at

this summer.
Himself, Bruno, Rashford and Martial have sufficient time to form one of the most dangerous attacking front-lines in the Premier League, ahead of next season. 🔥
Dear City fans,
We only want you to win the league because nobody actually cares about your little club.
We aren't your friends.
Regards,
The Premier League.
In first full-season in charge of
#mufc
, Solskjaer achieved 3rd place in the Premier League and reached 3 semi-finals.
He also moved on 6 senior names, with all 4 of his signings being a success in helping rebuild the stagnating squad.
The man deserves backing this summer.
🗣 Solskjaer on Rashford and Martial during pre-season: "I expect them to be leading stars."
• Rashford - 19 goals - 31 games
• Martial - 16 goals - 34 games
Not many clubs have a 22 + 24 year-old leading their attacking frontline.

🗣 Hugo Lloris on Anthony Martial's development this season:
"I don't know if it's related to his relationship with Solskjaer, we can see he is more confident. There is a very good understanding with the players around him at

People obsessed with bringing up Harry Maguire's £80m price tag, despite him massively improving
#mufc
's defensive record.
Not nearly enough gets said about Kepa costing Chelsea £70m.
• Brandon Williams → RB cover for Wan-Bissaka
• Sergio Reguilón → Starting competition v Luke Shaw
For a reported asking price of €20/25m, we should be all over this deal.
#mufc
This pass went out for a throw-in.
I don’t usually hone in on individuals or even individual moments, but I can’t get over the state of our midfield today. 🤒
The MEN have cited that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is a big fan of Teden Mengi. 🌟
He's enjoyed such a productive past 12 months, now training with the first-team will do him wonders too.
#mufc
🗞 Coaches have tried Sancho as a right wing-back in sessions in recent weeks and, with Wan-Bissaka’s attacking ability in question, Solskjær may yet turn to the tactic against teams expected to sit in should he continue to use the 3-4-1-2 system. [

- Anthony Martial's last 4 Premier League games: ⚽⚽⚽
- Bruno Fernandes last 4 Premier League games: 🅰🅰⚽⚽🅰
Still have Pogba and Rashford to come back into the mix. 👀
• Jack Grealish
• Kai Havzertz
• Donny van de Beek
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer identifying progressive midfielders, capable of offering Bruno Fernandes attacking support.
#mufc
Hopefully a deal for Reguilón materialises similar to Van de Beek - market value that

feel obliged to take advantage of. [swift negotiations]
Even though a left-back wasn't identified as a priority this summer, it's hard to ignore how good a signing this would be.
Alex Telles played 20 minutes for Brazil last night. 🇧🇷
📊 He managed:
- 2 key passes
- 2 chances created
- 1 cross
Coming for that starting spot at

You can tell that Nemanja Matic is just old school classy.
Rocking up in a suit like this to extend your contract with Manchester United.
Guy's a boss. ✊
£20m for Gabriel would be a shrewd piece of business and would allow
#mufc
to still invest in a CM + RW.
Particularly if we offload both Smalling and Jones - would be a very cost efficient deal.
✓ Rashford and Pogba back
✓ Mengi and Garner promoted
✓ Ighalo here to stay
✓ No senior injuries

- If United could sign one player this summer. it would be Sancho [MEN]
- Sancho is United's priority transfer target [The Athletic]
✍ Only way
#mufc
don't sign him, is if he himself turns us down.
Game we lost:
- Plenty of chances created (positive)
- Missed penalty
- Pogba first game (v opposition) since December
- Rashford minutes under his belt too
Really not the end of the world.

academy graduates to extend their contracts under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer:

• Tahiti Chong (20)
• Axel Tuanzebe (22)
• Marcus Rashford (22)
• Scott McTominay x2 (23)
Jadon Sancho, Raphaël Varane & Ruben Neves would be an ELITE window.
Three starting areas addressed, leaving not many depleted areas (quality not just numbers sake) in the squad.
#mufc
Feel like David Brooks could be an alternative to Grealish - a central creative midfielder available around the £35/40m mark.
Him and Sancho in one window would bolster our options nicely - a CB on top would be a brilliant summer.

📊 A stat that goes unnoticed:
This is Harry Maguire's 32nd consecutive start in the Premier League for

He hasn't missed a single minute in the division since joining the club.
🗣 An old Rashford quote on Ibrahimovic: “You will see the benefits in years to come. What I have learnt from him is irreplaceable."

Paul Pogba ranks 9th in the Premier League for most average key passes per game this season. [2.1]
Out of the nine, he averages the most passes per game. [64.2]
