@MattyT99 @AcademyScoop Honest question: why consider Baleba this year after a very underwhelming season for Brighton? I still think that Brighton will overvalue him and his shortcomings this year look to be largely mental. Old Trafford is not a kind place to play for the mentally weak

@AcademyScoop Such the perfect ‘project’ signing alongside Baleba too. Getting both for 100m would be top business from united. Avoid these 100m midfielders unless we have a genuine shot at Anderson (best in class).

Mateus Fernandes is such a tap in for United this summer. Maybe the best value for money midfielder on the market if West Ham get relegated - perfect as the third MF signing if/when Ugarte leaves.

@FPLfrasier Him buying the United Stand makes more sense every day. Another way to disparage the current iteration of United

Either Gary was pretending to be a United fan all his life or his brain has not been working around United anymore. Comes across so anti United all the time. This can’t be accidental anymore.

@Molson_Hart @bobbyfijan And there it is. You are just not in the strike zone yet for what Dallas does best which is providing a great place to raise a family with access to big city amenities

@bobbyfijan Walk to school type stuff yeah? My oldest is 4.5

Let me explain Dallas(s) 1. The summers are unbearable and this cannot be understood without moving there. You can't just visit Texas for 3 weeks in peak summer and understand it, because that's not why it's bad. It's bad because it's late October and it's 90+ and you're questioning your sanity as to whether not it will ever end. 2. Dallas' culture, superficially seems good, but once you dig down... 3. Dallas living is about the airport. You save money in Dallas and then fly out all the time because being in Dallas is rough. Airline travel in the US has declined a lot, so this way of life works less well. 4. The driving. It's dangerous. You need a tank and you're going to be sitting in it all the time. Dallas sort of seems like a city but it's not really. It's more like an area. 5. You can trade 3% state income tax for better weather, more trees, and fewer problems. I think Dallas is a solid place to live in a bigger house with A/C and grind for money aggressively for a short period of time and then move out of. Other than that, unless you are tied down there (job, family), I can't recommend it.

@UnitedStandMUFC You know what's funny? Your figurehead @markgoldbridge repeatedly stating that we should have sold Bruno last summer and it was a MASSIVE mistake not to do so. He's quiet on that take now...

🇵🇹 PFA Fans' Player of the Month... Who else? 🤷‍♂️ #mufc

@usmntonly No chance

BREAKING: USMNT and AC Milan winger Christian Pulisic is ‘firmly on the radar’ of Manchester United ahead of the summer transfer window, with the club accelerating plans to reshape their attacking options. Pulisic has just 12 months remaining on his current deal and there are currently no active negotiations over an extension following initial talks last year. Rafael Leao has been offered to United. However, insiders now suggest his AC Milan teammate Christian Pulisic is viewed as a potentially better fit for the club’s needs. Pulisic’s versatility is a major attraction. The 27-year-old has operated across the front line this season and has even been deployed as a false nine, underlining his tactical intelligence and adaptability in attacking roles. [TEAMTalk]

@UnitedStandMUFC Honestly some of your most rational opinions - agreed

💰 You've got £300 million to spend on FIVE players... Who are you going for? 👇 #mufc

@QQays10 @UnitedStandMUFC I’m grateful that you too are not in charge of transfers

@UnitedStandMUFC Thank god you are not in charge of transfers we need midfielders and real wingers who can take on defenders those are the most important positions we are missing Sandro tonali Mateus feernandes Baleba Diomonde Mika Marcel Godts Lawis hall

@Pokretni4 @UnitedStandMUFC Midfield is the greater need and an overlapping LB gives you some of the touch line width you are looking for. Cunha is too good not to be playing on the left side of that forward line

@UnitedStandMUFC We don’t have a proper LW, and you’re talking about a third CM. Two are enough with Kobbie Mainoo, Bruno Fernandes and Mason Mount. LW is a bigger priority than a 3rd CM or backup CF. Matheus Cunha and Patrick Dorgu aren’t natural LWs.

@ekmokaya @TheFergusonWay Brentford haven't lost in 10 matches. They are a decent side and we are in the middle of a transition, particularly in the middle of the pitch. Miles off? No. But we need 2-3 strategic upgrades on the pitch

@TheFergusonWay Can't blame him after lady night's game We're miles off

🚨 | Bruno Fernandes has made it clear he wants to win the Premier League and Champions League, and sources close to the player believe he is seeking reassurances about #mufc's ambitions. Fernandes may wait to see how United's transfer plans unfold, but the club hope their strategy to build a squad capable of competing for the biggest trophies will resonate with their captain and talisman. [@TelegraphDucker]

@FPLfrasier 1000%

Last two games are the best games I have seen from Mainoo. If he plays like this consistently, he is a £100m midfielder.

@AndyMitten @stan_chow @AndyMitten - will you be at OT for Brentford? Would love to buy the latest UWS and say hello (visiting from the States)

@Rekkr95 @kershaw_alex That’s not what OP is saying. He’s saying that General is the last person alive that was an officer who landed on Omaha beach

@BobbyBourne @kershaw_alex But there were others who landed after him he was in one of the first 3 waves

Happy 104th General Raaen, the last living officer to land on Omaha Beach on D-Day.

@Rekkr95 @kershaw_alex He retired as a general. Thats the appropriate way to refer to him is by his last rank but he was an officer when he landed on Omaha Beach. OP was correct

@kershaw_alex Raaen was a captain when he landed on Omaha Beach the last “generals” were Rosevelt Jr and Costa

@FPLfrasier Isn't most of the gap explained by the lack of Champions League football, i.e. the clause that wages go down by 25% if the team is not playing in the Champions League?

This right here is the reason we won’t be able to sign Anderson. The gap between United and City for wages is just huge. We don’t operate in the same market.

@htomufc LFG - flying from the states for United Brentford at OT next week. They better carry the momentum forward

UTFR ❤️

@ringer @BillSimmons @BillSimmons - you are really reaching with this one. And we will keep the receipts

“For me, it’s like a no-brainer. I would take Kon.” @BillSimmons discusses why he believes Kon Knueppel should be the Rookie of the Year over Cooper Flagg.

What would we have accomplished by getting a midfielder in January? If we can get Champions League without it, why buy a player who's not a long-term fit right now? And I don't think any player we could have loaned would have helped us make up a 15-point gap to the top of the table.

Others not saying it, I will just go ahead and say it. I think Ugarte has given up on United. Just didn’t like the way he played last game when he subbed on. It was like he wasn’t understanding the situation and playing however he liked. United should have signed a midfielder in January. Utterly irresponsible not to get a midfielder.

@ttsportsfeed99 @Adroit_Cadet A sniper doesn’t simply recycle the ball

@Adroit_Cadet Curious what makes you think Wharton is a sniper. He's perceived as such but stats don't back him up in terms of recycling the ball, winning it, or progressing it compared to other mfs. Why not get someone more similar to Tonali having proven a Bruno G - Tonali pairing works well

Wanted a Partey-Neves-Pogba midfield 6 years ago. Thank God we didn’t get Partey for obvious reasons, but, the vision is the balance in a midfield combo I want Let me have Wharton-Bruno G-Bruno Fernandes Sniper + driller + creator Nice and compatible with possession + counter attacking football

@AndyMitten Stone cold penalty - really don’t understand what VAR was doing

AFCB 2 MUFC 2. Cracking game for a neutral. Of which few of you are. Thought it was a pen on Amad before Bournemouth went up the other end and got a pen.

@FPLfrasier He probably had more natural talent but he was never the better player

Does Rooney consider himself as a top player? Because Neymar was better than Rooney.
