have you seen this?



the man will be captain before long.



i think we can still challange for top 4 (at least) with a proper CDM, an attacker (sisko?) and maybe a malacia-like right back.

we can then work with anthony and possibly even FdJ to run their contracts down to get them at a latter date.

this is a good video.


Unless they have a 10/10 every game, I think Maguire and Bruno get phased out eventually, but that depends on them. Martinez or Eriksen could hold the captaincy at some point.
If De Jong stays, we still won't get him. He'll probably go Chelsea unless we qualify for the UCL and Barca still want to get rid of him.

Probably go for Antony next year if we still need him and if Ajax find a suitable replacement.
Pogba potentially out of Qatar. :hubie:
Some Man Utd fans were celebrating on Twitter, even though he doesn't play for us anymore. :mjpls:

Breh might be done if this keeps happening to him.
Don't know about his injury record at Juve 2012-2016, but he had similar injuries when he joined. He has had lengthy injuries when Jose, Ole (Played him for the whole 120 minutes vs Rochdale, then Arsenal a few days later and his injury got worse) and Ralf were still there.

He chills at Miami alot, so MLS will be good for him before he eventually retires in a couple of years.

When you say celebrating? is it like laughing at the injury? or is it smugness that it is no longer Uniteds problem anymore? Or a vitriol combo of the 2?

Only Juve injury I can remember was a hamstring. The trade off between Serie A more running vs PL higher intensity of runs and impact.

Accused him of faking it when he had ankle issues around 2019 and there was footage of him dancing at his brothers wedding.

@brehsimilitude


Unless it's for squad depth, I doubt Bayern interest is concrete and Chelsea probably don't want anything to do with Barca, they also need more CB's than another midfielder at the moment.

And we agreed a fee with Barca, it was just personal terms.

Probably after Barca finish their pre-season tour on Friday, this will finally be come to an end......Hopefully.



He still ain't joining us. :mjlol::hubie::skip:

I hope he misses the World Cup for the sake of his career. Removing a piece of meniscus was always the dumbest procedure athletes went along with to me.

Hopefully the fact that he didn't have surgery right away in LA means he decided to look after his long term health but then again France medical staff might push him towards surgery that will allow him to play in Qatar :francis:

He was expected to have surgery in the United States, but has instead flown back to Italy on Wednesday.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport, it’s because there are two potential approaches to take to this injury and one could see him miss out on the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

The first port of call would be to remove a piece of the meniscus, which would keep Pogba out of action for 40-60 days.

However, this is generally considered more suited to younger players, as it can affect mobility of the knee.

The other option would be to suture the lesion, but that could require the player being side-lined for four to five months.

This is why Pogba will have consultations with the France medical staff as well as an orthopaedic specialist before making a decision.

Much will depend on the extent and positioning of the damage, as well as the idea this problem has been troubling Pogba for a couple of years, which is what caused so many muscular injuries at Manchester United.

Yeah never been a fan of the patch up job knee injuries. As you have to continue to monitor and do maintenance on it all the time. All the while putting off the full surgery you're eventually going to need anyway. And you're most likely doing damage to another part of the body overcompensating to ease the existing injury.

Bayern is not about to pay him the type of wages he's use to and Chelsea is still out there trying to acquire a defender in a trade with Timo Werner :mjlol:

But also Barca will not pay him money owed to leave. Barca will slowly increase their personal attacks on him to try to get him out. They already disrespected the shyt out of him by playing the corpse of Pjanic in midfield while they had him on as CB.

It will be genuinely interesting to see how this unfolds because so far it seem Freknie doesn't really give a fukk
