The Official Manchester United Thread

Their first goal last night for me was just a killer. Was a prime example of everything that is wrong with our formation and tactics.

And seriously what is he doing by not playing shinji? Why is kagawa not starting week in week out in his favoured position?

Did more in his 20 minute cameo than everyone else combined and he hasnt played for about a month.

Its a disgrace. Why is he not trying something different? 4-4-2 every fucking week and he thinks were in good form because we beat palace 2-0?

Former Wales assistant coach Raymond Verheijen has slammed Manchester United for handing Wayne Rooney a bumper deal, claiming the Reds should instead have sold the England international.

The opinionated fitness specialist has built a reputation for criticising Premier League training methods in the past; most recently accusing David Moyes of overtraining Robin van Persie during the summer.

And now Verheijen has taken to social media to claim United’s decision to hand an ‘ageing’ Rooney a five-and-a-half-year deal was driven by the commercial benefits.

“The Man United board must have been extremely desperate to save the Utd brand by giving a 300K per week salary to an ‘over the hill’ player,” he Tweeted.

“Wayne Rooney is no longer a world class player. He is a player who once in a while delivers a world class performance.”

The Dutch coach suggested the Reds would have been better off shelving the forward and rebuilding around the ‘much better’ Van Persie, with Juan Mata occupying the space behind the striker in Rooney's absence.

“The problem of keeping both RVP & Rooney is that both players have to play. Playing with 2 strikers means nr 10 Mata has to play on the wing.”

And Verheijen later advised Van Persie to jump ship if he harbours any hope of winning trophies in the final years of his career, adding: "It would be better for him to leave the Man United swamp."

He thinks Rooney was kept mainly to aide commercial benefits, what the hell could've given him that idea?

Not like the club have signed players or given contracts with financial benefit as the primary reason. Smh

Again interesting to hear about the revolutionary stuff that Moyes has brought to the table behind the scenes, again begers the question of what the fuck was going on beforehand.

I'd be over the moon if I believed that because we all know he's gonna continue to fail miserably. No belief in my mind that they would be willing to sack him until at least December times or summer 2015. He's gonna dismantle the team Fergie built this year.

 

Klopp is the only person I want in charge. Or someone who's been part of United history in some form.

This is the same high-tech scouting set-up that he used at Everton that picked Darron Gibson out of all the players in the world, pmsl.

Exactly.

Either we had nothing going on scouting wise beforehand

Or

The people in charge have no idea.

Both are as terrible realities as the other tbh
