I think it's a poor show that we don't have a proper Man Utd thread. They are one of the more compelling soap operas in English and World football. Right up there with Chelsea, who have a dedicated and official thread.
Because Utd are not winning everything and because Zomp has a job, kids, golf and general well being as more important priorities i have decided to start an unoffical thread. I'm not a fan. My dad is. We talk about Utd a lot. But I'm not a fan. I'm a borderline hater if truth be told. But we need a dedicated Utd Thread...even if only to mock the afflicted and for some of their fans to drop in once in a while...maybe, i dunno.
Anyway, I wonder if any in our community have any thoughts on:
1 The whole Jadon Sancho business. (I elected not to use the term debacle.) But it appears he;'s been banned from The Traning Ground and even the bloody staff canteen.
He might be having too many late nights playing video games https://metro.co.uk/2023/09/26/jadon-sancho-doesnt-sleep-enough-and-plays-too-many-video-games-19561731/?ico=mosaic_tag
He might have mental health problems as well though. He's from Kennington, i know the area well, rough place, lot of gang violence...i dunno anything about his family life or what might be (if anything) troubling him mentally, but there's a lot of information we're not privvy to in this saga.
There's been chatter about how he's not the most committed on the training pitch, that his punctuality leaves much to be desired. It's clear only one person wins this war though and i doubt it's the man from South of the River.
2. The on off on off sale/non sale of Man Utd
3 The state of the actual stadium, leaks an all. 'It'll take more than a lick of paint' as my grandad used to say.
4 The 'will he stay or will he go - how much?' saga of Harry Maguire, Old Trafford's least wanted.
Anyway Man Utd are currently 2-0 up against Palace.
