You lucked into CL given quality of Europa and have picked up tin pots here and there since Fergie left. Lets see how you do this season. I'd say you finish 3rd to 6th. We'll see. I think the bookies are about right, but I would back Jose to outsmart Pep if he gets a chance to next spring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I keep all my cup final ticket stubs (the ones we win) in a photo album. They are the memories for fans, along with league titles, as are winners medals for the players.

doesthisbusstop Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 Very impressive today, this team looks full of pace and power and capable of going the distance. Matic, Pogba, Rashford and Lukaku all immense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AMIW Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 the reserve team isn't bad either - one of my work colleagues asked if I thought man u's back ups would be the 2nd or 3rd best team in England and you know maybe that is true goalie romero defenders lindelof, smalling, darmian midfield lingard, herrara, fellaini, carrick striker martial cetianly better than the chelski bench or any other bench probablu 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

C4G Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 The usual 4-0 win............whatever you lot say, Utd are playing to bloody good football Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doesthisbusstop Posted August 19, 2017 Author Share Posted August 19, 2017 It's early days yet but we look so powerful. When you think we drew 15 games last season you can see how this team can now turn most of those into wins. That will put us in the title hunt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

On the right road, and like I said earlier Matic is a really good signing for them, but they need a good strong and healthy centre back pairing and also lack guile up front with only Mkhitaryan from yesterdays selection able to supply that.

We definitely need more guile to go to the latter stage of the CL. But the PL early signs are good considering we scored 54 goals in 38 PL games last season and it's already 8 in 2 without conceding any. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doesthisbusstop Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 Home to Burton as we begin our defence of the league cup. A good chance for Jose to play the rest of the squad who haven't yet featured in the premier league games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

doesthisbusstop Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 1 hour ago, AMIW said: busstop will be happy zlatans back Well, if we were an imposing squad of power before, then the addition of 6ft 4 Zlatan has raised the bar further. Lukaku knows he has to score game in game out and Jose now can rest and rotate as he wishes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doesthisbusstop Posted August 26, 2017 Author Share Posted August 26, 2017 Played 3. Won 3. Scored 10. Conceded 0. Top. ABU's unhappy. Bank holiday weekend. Life is good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AMIW Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I thnk you are maxed out at 25 players already so would have to sell/loan somebody or possibly not name rojo or zlatan in squad if they aren't playing before xmas Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doesthisbusstop Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'm happy with our squad. Now everyone can get on with it. It's now a 35 game PL and a 2 point head start. Come on united. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
