spillo1:

You don't think the potential sales of Garnacho, Hojlund, Anthony, Sancho, Rashford etc will offset the amount needed to get a Striker

I dont. unless its only those 3 players we want to sign this summer.

nitrogen:


This is potentially a shitty deal.

Pretty much every deal is potentially a shitty deal.

spillo1:

The initial plan was Cunha, Delap and Mbuemo/Semenyo. We will definitely add a striker then outgoings will determine what position to focus on next.

I agree but I think there is a rethink due to Delap going to Chelsea. I dont believe the money will be there for a deal for a Gyokeres or Osimhem.

spillo1:
I expect this deal to be completed soon and then we move for a striker.

Dont be surprised if we dont sign a striker after g Mbeumo.

City just signed Ait Nouri for just 40m euros which is crazy. I'm pissed as that's who we should have gone for. SMH.

CapitalCee:


If Bruno Stays. Added with a fully fit Amad. We may be looking at 100goals from just the 5 of them. But with Onana in post, we may be shipping in stupid goals, thereby sabotaging the work of the front line.

I am predicting a 10 goals EPL season for Zirkzee.

100 goals.

I guess since we didnt make champions league, Na NBA playoffs remain to play next season.

Mbuemo ing us over Arsenal and Newcastle is interesting. He must really love United or maybe we should be worried about his decision making.

So Delap chose Chelsea. let's see where we turn to now.

Post-season tour in Asia. The club is looking for any and every way to raise funds.

As the club broke reach now, if you pay them to come and play a game at your children's primary school inter-house sports competition they will come.

Omo, I was just thinking how bad the finances must be for the club to do this. I dont think we've ever gone on tour so soon after the end of the season before.

afrodoc:


Amad does not play on the left. He will most likely play RWB if we get Mbeumo. Or compete with him for right 10. Either way he and Mbeumo will be in the right side and won’t impact the team selection on the left side.

Bruno will either be one of the 2 CMs or will be gone for 100m.

Mount is the difficult one. He is the one who might challenge Zirkzee for the substitute role in the left 10 position.

Garnacho is gone. The club are willing to sell him and he himself sounds tired of the on and off love. He is also our 2nd best route to raising funds after the Bruno offer from Saudi.

Star CF, Delap, Amad, Mbeumo, Cunha, Zirkzee, Mount.
7 players for 3 positions is not a bad idea considering the possibility of injuries.

The 4 new players will be replacing Rashford, Sancho, Antony, Garnacho, Hojlund (5 players).

Interesting but I would be shocked if we went for another 9 along with Delap if we get him.

Let's not forget there's someone in goal that we have to do our best to replace this summer.

afrodoc2:


Zirkzee can be a good bench option as a left 10 in Amorim's 3-4-3. Cunha to start and Zirkzee on the bench. He can be a 3rd option CF if the first 2 options can't play.

So assuming, we get Delap, Cunha, Mbeumo. Sell Holjund. You think Zirkzee will get a enough playing time? considering, we'll still have Mount,Bruno, Amad who can do a job there (assuming Garnacho is gone).

afrodoc2:


Delap is better than Hojlund and half the price. Ideally though, we should get someone better than Delap in addition to Delap and then offload Hojlund.

If we did that we would have to also get rid of Zirkzee surely?

Cunha, Mbeumo and Delap would definitely be an interesting regeneration of the attack.

Only time will tell if it'll be good.

I would not sell Bruno for £100m but I would not be upset if the club decided to do it.

I hope that will be the last time I see Rasmus in a Man utd shirt.

Jamiuokolaa:


The same 10 position where Bruno has struggled?

Tbh, I dont see how Mctom would have fitted into our current setup o. He would most likely have been one of the scapegoats, had he stayed

Also happy for him too. It means he isn't "useless" afterall - na we no sabi use am

All the criticism of him was that he was poor in midfield which he was. In his last season under ETH, He was crashing the box and getting goals for us when he was played in a more advanced role. I think he got 10 goals or so. The problem is we always played him in a midfield pivot. Most of his time in the academy, he played in advanced positions or sometimes even striker and he showed it for the first team as long as you dont have him in midfield trying to control play he can be a useful goal getter.

Amorim wants Garnacho out.

Mrviktor:
ETH never went a season trophyless.

4 finals in 2 years.


In 5 years time y'all will miss him..


Amori has no plan B.

And plan A hasn't worked for any title winning side without amazing wingbacks.

If plan A doesn't work the team collapses.

The painful part is how they are always in a hurry when it's the 85th minute.. like u played slow es from the 1st minute to the 84th minute. Then when it's 85 they start playing with urgency..

The players aren't bad.
The don't believe in the 3 man block.

Playing with 5 defensive minded players.
Add the 2 defensive minded midfielders in case and urgate that's already 7 players that are trying to prevent a goal.

Plus the keeper that's 8.

Den y'all expect 3 players upfront to perform magic and score goals..
Well done.


The tactic before was 4-2-3-1

7 defend. 5 attack.
Football isn't supposed to be hard.

I agreed with pretty much everything you said except the players arent bad. I don't fully disagree because you're right they're not bad players but this squad of players are not good enough for what they're expected to do and achieve. This is very clear and evident.

Yes, they should not be 16th position bad but if you think they're good enough to be top 4 in the league then I don't know what to tell you.

So happy for McTominay. Even in his last season with us, he showed us how useful he could be if only we used him properly. Funny that he would have probably been a great fit for Amorim's so called system as one of the 10s crashing the box and getting goals. But he has moved on and life is so much better for him.

Interesting stat.

Mrviktor:
I no even blame Rasmus.

There was no ball into the box at all

How can there be a ball in the box. He didnt hold up anything. he didnt make any good runs or movement. He didnt bring his teammates into play. nothing.

Mrviktor:
What Caicedo is doing in this midfield is unfair..

And he's doing it on his own


Beast

I we were offered him before he went to Brighton for less than £5m. we said no.

All I know is that if Amad pick injury I'm crashing out.

Amorim went with the strongest available lineup it seems.

afrodoc2:
Ayden Heaven has travelled with the rest of the squad for the Chelsea game but no Obi and worryingly, still no sign of de Ligt.

Deligt is definitely not playing the final next week.

Is Obi injured?

larride:


We are average in the league this season. We are not average in the Europa League. We are the only unbeaten team remaining in all of Europe competition.

We fully deserve to be in the final by virtue of our performance in the Europa league and we fully deserve to be where we are on the PL table.

I didnt even see that you said average in the league. If you consider that the 3 relegated teams are pretty much championship level teams. We along with Spurs are the worst teams in the division. I think that qualifies us for atrocious, disastrous in the league not average.

ChristineC:
well that's not a factual claim.
he may or may not have what it takes, but there's only one way to find out.
I don't think quitting will look good on his CV.
if the club is quiet on the transfer market, then the public idea is that they expect Amorim to develop the team from youth. if that's the resolution, then I'd like to believe he gets more than enough rope over the years.
whereas if he's backed in the market, then we get the idea on expectations as well.

Of course its not a factual claim. Just an opinion like yours. Is that not what we're all doing here?

Oasis007:


.....they don't.

Ok. Please go and remove them from next season's CL.

afrodoc2:
Europa League winners deservedly go to the Champion's League the next season. I no understand this one people are trying to rewrite the rules of the game just before final whistle.

If we win then we deserve Champion's League football. If Spurs win, they deserve it instead.

Simple.

CrystalTiger:


That his interview is looking like he's not going to get players..

But why do you think he should resign?

I think he knows he hasnt got what it takes to improve this squad and there isnt enough money to fix the issues with the squad so he is the one going to take the blame. He is not going to leave this club with his reputation intact so probably best to walk on his and with a trophy if he gets it.

If I were Amorim, If I win the Europa League I would resign immediately after.

Oasis007:


......I understand your optimism but ain't gonna put any hope on the final. Both Clubs are average this season - very average. Luck can take you to final in cup competition but reality does set-in in league competition.

None of the clubs deserves UCL spot next season but rules are rules. UCL is meant for Gladiators not Weaklings.

Bilbao we beat home and away are 4th in Laliga. DO they deserve CL football next season?

larride:


What else do you expect the manager to say? That the game are meaningless or what?

If they ask you which game is more important between the Europa League final and yesterday game, which will you chose?

I think the point is, its not and should not be either or. You cannot have your team losing matches continuously because they have a final coming. Its very easy to carry that losing streak into the final.
