In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
And that's why I asked you to tell me who are those players that he should have brought from within the club, He did it with Santon, Balotelli, Nacho, Jesé, José Rodriguez and Morata. I really don't see who he missed and that's why I don't understand the accusation.
Edit: I only see Carvajal and that was pretty stupid to choose Arbeloa over him.
Lukaku and KDB?
And I already told you who he had at Chelsea. You're not listening or making more excuses.
So we'd set up presumably 4-2-3-1. Who would be our Matic, Makele type player? Schneiderlin still has a lot to prove. I could see Jose bringing someone else to cover. We'd also need a centre forward and Jose loves a strong physical type.
Excuses, discussing is making excuses? If you think that Chelsea's youngsters are ready then fair enough Mourinho is wank.
Your whole discussion to my key point is a paradox - how can young players prove to be 'ready' if they aren't given to opportunity to prove so? He is wank, but we didn't need a 10 post discussion to come to this conclusion.
It could be someone like Krychowiak, Carvalho, Casemiro, Kondogbia, Weigl, Geis, Danilo, Kante, etc. I would like a CM like Neves.
Ibrahimovic for free is a good option as a forward, he also has a good relationship with Mourinho.
Managers work with players during the entire week, that's how they know if they are ready or not. If the players aren't training at the right standard they are not going to play during the weekend.
Who are the top 5 players on Mendez books who are available this summer? I'd imagine we'd be singing a few of those .
Martial, Carrick, Herrera out
Benny McCarthy, Costinha, Maniche in
Benny McCarthy, Costinha, Maniche in
Not including De Gea;
Ronaldo, Di Maria, James Rodriguez, Diego Costa and Ruben Neves.
Ronaldo - Do not want
Di Maria - been there, done it.
James - Cannot see them selling
Diego Costa - Jose would not want him after his efforts.
Ruben Neves - Maybe
Neves would be a great buy IMO, fits with what we have done with Shaw and Martial.
I would. Love him. Great player especially when used correctly. Deserves a proper run to be able to judge properly. Apart from that, he's a great ambassador for the club and a great role model.
Totally agree!
With Herrera's goal scoring ability's, I could see mourinho trying to do what he done with lampard, giving him the freedom to attack. Herrera has allot of potential that has been clipped by VG, memphis and martial he could see doing very well
Feck, I forgot him. Play him instead of Memphis.
Our back 4 will get bigger, Darmian, Blind, Rojo and McNair will be out. He'll want a targetman, and a hard working winger for the right, Valencia will do if he prioratises elsewhere. Mata and Rooney will rotate the #10
Mata being sold by the same manager twice seems very likely. If only this was 2008, Mourinho would try to get Quaresma here.
Rojo is definitely gone. He's a shit man's David Luiz. Mcnair cannot defend so he's not got much of a future here regardless of the manager.
If Mourinho does indeed take over, i can see Mata leaving in the summer, which i have no problem with, then Memphis and Januzaj being in trouble once the season starts.
Young will not be dropped.
Don't jinx it mate!
I hope you have some nearby wood to knock on.

I wonder if that record we have of fielding at least one homegrown player in the squad for every game since 1937 will survive Mourinho's tenure.
Why would he get rid of Darmian? There's a lack of decent right backs out there as it is, and Darmian is a more defensive right back anyways so he'll suit Mourinho. And he can play on either flank.

Darmian is bigger than Cole. A bit of time in the gym and he'll be fine.
Mourinho likes big players, he'll look at stats like if a player isn't x inches tall we'll concede y extra goals from set pieces. If a player is good enough he'll still use them, a rat like Cole was his left back for many years. Personally I like Darmian a lot
His first two buys will be a center back and a target man
Agree that he'll definitely buy a center back and a striker, that's basically a guarantee. Ibrahimovic and Stones are probably two very real targets as well. But Darmian isn't too different to Azpilicueta physically (and in terms of their play style), so I could see Mou liking him. Don't think he'd change too much in terms of the overall back 4 apart from just bringing in a center back to partner Smalling, the fullback group we have is really a Mourinho type group. Also he'll definitely be a right winger as he won't play Mata out there, and definitely won't settle with Lingard. Striker, right winger and a center back are basically guarantees if he becomes the manager, with Martial playing on the left I think in a similar role to Hazard last season or Ronaldo when Mou was at Madrid.
Every heard of a transfer window. Mata will be replaced.
How important is it though. We've seen 4 youth players brought through this season it's hardly been raves upon in here. Besides I've yet to see Mourinho stop the established he just hardly brings kids in the main team. Those already around like Lingard maybe flurish.. Like Lampard and Terry did.
We need to add more attacking depth so taking out Mata simply increasing the players required by another one player. It's just adding to the headache and therefore imo we'll stick with Mata given the amount of players we probably still need.
Sell Mata sign Griezmann(who he likes) and a right winger. Why would we possibly miss Mata if that happened.
Pretty important, I'd say. We've seen youth players brought through due to injuries and necessity, not through their ability, i.e, Pereira. In any case, Borthwick-Jackson who was brought in looks fantastic cover and will save us having to spend 20 odd million on a LB in his late twenties as cover, *cough Felipe Luis cough*.
Doesn't seem to run true for the LVG bashers, if LVG doesn't play youngsters it is because he is wank. With Jose, I think it pretty fair to suggest that he prefers to play with the finished product as he wants to be challenging for the title and other trophies. So he is less likely to take the risk of giving youngsters a platform to show their ability. Chelsea have had some really good youth players and young players they bought. I can't remember him giving them a platform at Chelsea to grow.
Exactly.. Injuries!! So why is it important then? We should always have a good youth structure regardless of the manager. But like people always say if they are good enough they will play. I'm yet to see a Chelsea youth player that was overlooked that turned out to be good enough.
Look forward to Igahlo being our 3rd choice striker though. Lol.
Mata will probably leave
