it’s fair to say Arsenals recruitment isn’t outstanding. It’s good but probs around 7.5/10
Eze, Gyok, Madueke, Zubimendi, Tzolis in recents aren’t top. But they got the spine right & have a coach who maximises them. A good youth crop also. We aren’t looking perfection from Ineos
If I could pick 3 players in world football to bring to United, Declan Rice is on the list
Serious serious player. Can do it all
Raya, Timber, Konsa, Gabriel, Calafiori
Full backline all cost less than £50m. Same for both their wingers. Just a truly exceptional coaching performance from Arteta getting a league title from the group. Has improved every single player
A good manager changes everything
All we ask is this effort. Is it incredibly frustrating we aren’t ahead? Of course
But we can see how the players are trying, running, actually cohesive. Although I feel we need to score first, if we concede could see the heads dropping
Very happy with that half bar a goal
Think we’ve been strong in our chance creation, building up better from the backline and the intensity off the ball is better. More compact and forcing them longer.
Amad/Bruno wasteful in front of goal. We should be two up, we need a goal
Always felt Antonio Silva could have been a great pick up for United, I preferred him over Diomande and got some stick for it at the time
Very different players but Silva has started so well for Bournemouth. Talent is everywhere
We could have had him for free….
Winger feels more of a priority for me with Mbeumo at 9
#MUFC exploring market for centre-forwards in January, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin under consideration.
Move considered remote given rivalry between teams.
Leeds believed to be looking at securing new contract for star striker.

Understand Carrick has to say certain things but getting sick of these lines from players/staff then we see the performances at the weekend
I can accept losing if we see fight, spirit and a plan. Wins will come if that’s always present
🚨🗣️ Michael Carrick: “I have to say, the boys are HUNGRY. We're hurting because we haven't won enough football games, but there's an intensity, there's a bit of an edge, there's a disappointment, there's a hunger to do better, for sure.” #MUFC
Watch the way Rio Ngumoha breaks the Chelsea block whether that’s vs settled possession or their press
The ability to beat your man 1v1 consistently is just a cheat code. Creates space for yourself + others, makes teams drop off. United have NO ONE who can consistently do that
It can’t get any worse, can it?
🚨 Confirmed: Benjamin Sesko out until at least January through shin injury.
Period of rest is required so striker is fully healed.
