OFFICIAL FOOTY THREAD ⚽️: Rodri wins 2024 Ballon d’Or

[Coupé It]

Conceição is not going to play around at Milan.

Still don’t understand why he wasn’t hired first instead of Fonseca.

color me optimistic but I see a lot of promise from Ruben... dudes in game management has been great... recognizes issues early and isn't afraid to act. Players letting him down with their quality, but I have no doubts in his ability.

There is no point to playing Felix, Palmer and Nkunku together. They all occupy the same positions, have no pace, and slow the game down way too much.

The Nkunku and Lavia transfers have been pretty disappointing so far given the hype and money spent. At least with Lavia he’s young, Nkunku is 27 and doesn’t have a place in our starting 11. I don’t see him staying past this summer if this keeps up

nkunku time at Chelsea been a let down

Lavia has looked pretty composed the couple matches I watched and yeah only 20

United deserves all this and more for the way their ownership is acting. Let them get relegated if another steward or concession worker sees a penny more taken away from them.

As I've said, this sport favors the young.
Every year of getting older becomes an uphill battle. Our knees haven't evolved for the excessive running and have a shelf life.

All the players with pace eventually lose it. That's why Mbappe gotta hurry and get this balon d'or because the clock is ticking

It’s impossible to make a honest assessment right now but you got to wonder why this move was made.
Especially with January just right around the corner.

Ipswich has only lost one more match than Utd, yikes.

Hopefully Liverpool go easy and use some lube.

Meanwhile Rooney got the boot as a manager again.

Southgate getting a knighthood is wild, if he actually won something he might have become a saint.

 

[Coupé It]

Especially when I think it’s against United’s policy that they don’t buy in January much.

Insane situation, he really might be a free agent in a few hours as things stand

looks like he's gonna stay and wait it out to see what happens? but im guessing he can't play until if/when the financials are resolved

Lever activation incoming

The potential is really high with him, he has it all except availability. Missed all of last season and most of this one so far. Fofana is another that misses too many games to be counted on

So yall are saying Ruben was brought in now because the plan was to always retool in January? Or am I following wrong?

 

[noskey]

**** that orc. Hope he breaks an ankle on the sideline.

I’m asking.

Don’t United not do much January business?

It’s always Summer it feels like

 

[Beans]

I think most clubs try and avoid January as it screams desperation but they need to get him players to help cuz this ain’t it.
