I could recommend a couple from a team that plays in red and white to their south west. Witton Albion ? Too much of a step up. They could however blow the lot on a young CB with experience at their level. Less of a gamble than raiding us for our treasures. Though I’m sure super Jake knows the area so would settle without any problems not like super Sam in his terrace in Goms Mill.

Shame that fancied he could have been good for us Not really what we need though is he? He seems a playmaker-ey type player abit like sawyers. With Powell Laurent baker and Kilkenny (?) not really room for him.

Look to have done ok in that area

Liked the idea of Mike Doyle's grandson playing for us though. It was early in my time supporting us - remember him being a nasty hard get who never smiled!

One of my first games he scored for us in...2-0 win v West Ham My Dad cut him off leaving the Vic after a game and he gave a V sign back . Think he had a Jag if I remember . I thought it was cool at the time.

From a purely aesthetic view, it’s such a shame that we replaced Adam Davies with Jack Bonham.

Seems to be confirmed that Ronaldo wants out of Man Utd If the right bid comes in... Don't see that happening, other than Chelsea which top team are even in for a striker right now? United would make the price for them absolutely brutal surely. Bayern perhaps if Lewa does go to Barca... but don't see them upsetting their wage structure with Ron. Even PSG aren't dumb enough for this one.

Even PSG aren't dumb enough for this one. If I was Man Utd, I'd accept anything that took his wages away and he doesn't seem a great fit for what they're trying to do. Probably time for a fresh start under Ten Hag £25m-a-year?! I wouldn't be massively shocked if he'd prefer a season on mega money in the sun in MLS over seeing out time in rainy Manchester in a team that's not going to win anything.

The man got 25 in 40 being supplied by team mates that played like they have brain injuries.

Looks like we're slowly building a decent side
------------------Bursik or new GK----------------
Clarke------------Flint-----Soutter----------Tymon
----------------------Kilkenny--------------------
---------------Baker------------Laurent-----------
-----------------------Powell---------------------
-------------Brown--------------Target man--------

The man got 25 in 40 being supplied by team mates that played like they have brain injuries. Sometimes though a player can be great individually but still not quite the best fit for the team. Fergie realised that with RvN and moved him on to accommodate Rooney and Ronaldo. It was true of us to an extent when TP signed Crouch as well. Ronaldo was still scoring goals but he doesn’t press and seems to be a bit of a problem in the dressing room. Fernandes’ influence decreased massively after Ronaldo arrived as well. Being shut of him and Pogba gives him a better chance of building a team.

Nope I'm pretty sure he'll go 343 however I'm not sure how that'll implement the new signings unless he leaves Laurent out If he goes that route I'd imagine as it is you're looking at Bursik Wilmot------Soutter------Flint Clarke--Kilkenny--Baker--Tymon ------------Powell------------ ------Brown-------Target man-- What is good news is that 1) Bar Flint they're all either at there peak or hungry to push on. 2) They seem well thought of by there old clubs fans.

Just depends who he can bring in doesn’t it and what formation he wants to play. Given what we have at the moment it isn’t a waste because non of the others can do it. If he wanted to go 343 I can’t see a job in the centre two for him even 433 he’s probably more suited to the front three than the middle 3. He’s fine in the middle in 352 and ideal in the centre of the 3 in 4231. At the end of the day it’s not a problem Powell is pretty competent in any role MON is likely to play him if only you could say the same about our other attacking options.

I’d be surprised to see MON use that formation and if he said he was using it I’d expect it to look more like 541.

We've got some good players on board let's utilise them.

We’ve disagreed on this before. I don’t think you’ll ever convince me that playing our best player in any position other than his best one (as a 10) is a good idea for the team. He can do “a job” in lots of places, but I want to see him excel, which he is capable of in a 10.

I’m expecting to be even more negative next season. Not saying it’s going to be better or worse in terms of outcomes but I’m not expecting it to be entertaining or exciting.

I am worried Maja is the striker we will plump for and I am not convinced he will provide us with enough goals or be physically strong enough.
