Onana saves a penalty and Maguire scores a goal.
Let's be honest, no-one needed to "keep us in check" for most of the 90s...
Managing to keep hold of Carrick & Berba around the time that Bale & Modric caught fire would have been fucking special though.
They'll likely ask for too much - he'll still have 2.5 years on his contract in Jan + Prem tax/selling to a rival.Ange would straighten him out...
30m could be a tempter, but I'd rather we invested in other talent and he was sent back to Dortmund.
They'll loan him in January,hope he performs and raises Price or see out ETH and back in the summer
He’s finally got something right then !Dion Dublin was saying that United were crap.
Honestly he always gets mentioned as a former Utd player, but I think of him more as a Villa guy.Dion Dublin was saying that United were crap.
united are in huge trouble aint they. look fucking dreadful. midfield is weak, backline weak, keeper is a clown, rashford overrated. the striker looks a bit of a handful but thats it. need a complete rip up of the culture like we had.

The only hope they have is that it is still possible to just luck into a quality squad in one mangificent window like we've done and transform them over night.
Though, given it's United we're talking about, it's a lot less likely.
yea they need someone that actually knows what they are doing. i dont think we lucked out, i think paratici actually knows the game. he aint got everything right but hes got far more right than wrong aint he. united overpay for shit, have done since fergie left. theyve tried the big boys like di maria etc and then they've tried the less extravagant route too, neither has worked.
looks like theyve got some deep rotted problems like we had with the "spursy" lot that were robbing a living. players that are not only not good enough, but have brought a poor culture to the club.

I think we lucked out a bit. Paratici is definitely knows what he's doing but I don't think even he expected Vicario, Udogie, Sarr to be this good this soon.
Very few teams get this many signings right so quickly without a bit of luck.

weve had big ange come in and cut the spursy lot out too which has helped. vic would of been destroyed by now if he had davies and dier in front of him. the feel good factor and fresh vibe has played. massive part. there seems like a cloud left when kane did too, it looked like the players before felt maybe they were beneath him and he got to do what he wanted.
we knew sarr was a player last year, i know there were a few mushrooms that thought skipp was a better player but a few saw the truth.
gotta ride this buzz now as long as we can. im confident of us going to palace friday and winning, i aint been that confident about us for a long time.
Out of those 3, I'd suggest Vic was signed with he expectation of being a 'now' player....... Although a comparatively young age compared to an outfield player; he's 27.... He wasn't signed with 2 or 3 season's time in mind.
