@galvinmufc7 @Stew_Wills @utdcynical Yeah I’m not sure I’m understanding how calling a good goal a banger instead of just a good goal is “what’s wrong with the fanbase” but go on.

@Stew_Wills @andrewjs__77 @utdcynical Far better to slightly exaggerate a goal than say every player apart from the ones I like are shit.
Especially good youth players

Circumstances surrounding Santos and Tielemans deals highlights issues in departments at #mufc but they'll soon have depth in midfield. Not convinced by a Chelsea squad player farmed out on loan four times but maybe Santos will thrive in a new environment. Tielemans oozes quality and United should've gone for him years ago. Rarely lasts whenever the club restrict themselves to an age range. Still need an established defensive midfielder.

Youri.
Understand talks took place in the last 24 hours and accelerated very quickly.
Club kept this quiet with story only breaking this morning.

@Hindsight1011 @RossHarwood_ Yes he has no sources. Guesses according to rumors already circulating and somehow is still always wrong
English
@andrewjs__77 @RossHarwood_ I’m starting to see he knows nothing. Didn’t want to follow the crowd, wanted to give him a chance but I notice he just says alot and whatever sticks he takes credit
English
@Hindsight1011 @RossHarwood_ This guy is wrong more than he is right. Don’t come to him for info.
English
@RossHarwood_ Do you mind answering questions on Baleba, you said we will hear news is that still the case ?
English
@RossHarwood_ Now Ross is getting his news from the official Utd page 😭
English
@RossHarwood_ And de Jong? And gyokeres? Didn’t mum tell you that Ederson completed his medical.

@jmthrivept @FPLMahomes BTW this is how haaland always plays. He didn’t score, so your Yankee brain says he didn’t play good.
English
All fair points, but we might not be lining up in terms of context. I totally understand it from an offensive strategy perspective and how the coaches would want to use him.
From what I observed on the touch opportunities that he did have:
1. Midfielders passed it forward to him a few times and he didn’t present himself fully, allowing the defender to challenge him and forcing a poor first touch then turnover (happened at least 3 times that I can think of today)
2. I understand standing offsides in terms of gravity and pulling defenders, but there were 2-3 opps that I saw where he slowly walked back while one of his midfielders had control of the ball and resetting attack. Could have put himself in better positions to get back onside and then create pressure opps for the midfielder to chip over the defense and use his height and size against the goalie. Instead, he was walking back assuming they would just swing the ball back and around (maybe that’s what they coach, idk… I was taught you always want to keep options open to keep defense on their toes).
3. For his size and speed, he surprisingly allowed the defenders to challenge him in ways that prevented good touches and control today, leading to at least 2 errant passes towards teammates. Could be better here
It’s just funny because I’m getting comments like “stick to American football, you clearly don’t understand the game!” when these issues are pretty clear, and I played in college and I coached for a while 🤣
English
@FPLMahomes Explain your point more.
I’m viewing it from a team and ball movement standpoint, especially on attack (and especially as a forward)
English
@jbot_jeremy @InOhioB @jmthrivept It’s not that serious. I’m not reading all that but either sorry or congrats.
English
@InOhioB @andrewjs__77 @jmthrivept For the record re my previous response to you: I would firmly stand in the camp of “you can critique a player for whatever you want no matter what your resume is and you might be right”, but hopefully respect, thoughtfulness and genuineness is a tenet of your communication style.

Erling Haaland
•walks too much
•stays offsides for too long on an altered attack
•doesn’t present himself for passes consistently
•relies on shoving due to poor positioning
•inconsistent passes/touch
I see what he means when he told that interviewer that he hasn’t peaked
Jeff Mueller, PT, DPT@jmthrivept
We got offensive pass interference on Haaland. Get these refs into the NFL, let’s see what they can do
English
@andrewjs__77 @jmthrivept @InOhioB 1. I didn’t see him call himself an expert
2. He played college soccer
3. You don’t need a resume to talk about a sport or even bring up good points (I’m not saying Jeff has or has not)
4. Did you want to comment in good faith with an opinion or nah?
English
@jmthrivept @InOhioB I’ve never seen you talk about soccer in 3 years of following you but now since it’s the World Cup you’re an expert with every other American.
English
@InOhioB Maybe you can learn something today

@jmthrivept @FPLMahomes Imagine typing a novel and sounding even dumber lol

Ederson deal is all agreed and completed.
Announcements to be done following World Cup for Brazil as Ederson was late call up to squad.

@RossHarwood_ Ross has never come across a situation quite like ederson, de Jong, gyokeres Matheus fernandes…. The list goes on. Your source is your mum yelling at you from the kitchen
English
I have never come across a situation quite like the Ederson-Man Utd situation.
The agreement was all there, but at the very last moment the club decided against it due to medical/injury concerns.
Man Utd have kept numerous targets for their midfield recruitment, so this isn’t a setback by any means.
#mufc

@RossHarwood_ Add this to the list with Gyokeres, de Jong, etc etc. have you no shame?!?!?
English
@RossHarwood_ You are such a wanker!!! at least keep up the fucking wrong posts. You have no credibility.
English
Expect some news regarding Baleba to come in the next few days following the confirmation of Ederson deal collapse.
