How is this stuff left until the very last minute? We’ve known for ages since we let Billy go out on loan that we need another body in midfield. Literally months. The moment Kante was injured and missed the Palace game opening weekend things should’ve been sent into overdrive trying to line up a midfielder. He’s going to continue to pick up niggling injuries. And it has been reported for weeks that Zouma was off. Why would we okay that sale without having it in writing that Sevilla were okay with the fee? This is what makes me feel like there’s one last push for Koundé. Otherwise our negotiators will look extremely stupid.

I know it probably sounds spoiled, entitled, and negative but United finishes ahead of us last season comfortably and have added 3 world class players that go straight into their first XI. And they might not be done yet as they could still sign a midfielder which is the last piece of their puzzle. How can we possibly only sign 1 player? Especially when Tuchel himself has confirmed multiple times in press conferences that there are a couple of areas he wanted to strengthen.

And yet Sevilla raising the price by £12m is a deal breaker? Makes no sense. While missing out on Koundé this summer isn’t devastating, the problem now will be that if he has another great season in Spain many other top clubs will be back in for him this time next year. We had a free run at him this summer and he was apparently extremely keen on coming here. We’ll probably be targeting Rice who will cost £100m so we won’t have money to spend on him next summer. This is why getting him in early right now made sense.

Why on earth would we sell Zouma before any Koundé deal was also sealed and signed simultaneously? 😑😑😑 If you’d have told us at the start of the window that we’d only make 1 signing I don’t think anyone would’ve believed it.

If Koundé wasn’t already agreed why on earth would we sell an extremely useful asset in Zouma? It has to be happening, right?

Can’t imagine we’ll go the whole window selling off like 15 players and only signing 1. We can challenge for the title with what we have now. But if we’re serious about winning it then we need just 1 or 2 more quality players.

Wolves can’t score to save their lives. This was always going to be a smash and grab from United.

United will 100% panic buy some sort of midfielder before the deadline. Hope we can pinch Saul before they do.

Adama is an absolute monster in the open field. Been saying that in every game so far this season. Does literally everything amazingly up until the final action that lets him down. If he went to a club that has plenty of players who can get it done at the business end he’d be a serious weapon.

Was literally just coming here to say this. They’ve been utterly horrendous for the most part attacking wise in all 3 of their matches and will still likely enter the international break top of the league. Spuds are especially annoying because they have two of the worlds ultimate “bail out” players in Son and Kane. The team can be awful for entire matches but one of those two can always score out of nothing and win them games. This is why I had hoped Kane left so Spuds would fade into irrelevance. Now that he’s staying and they’ve made a couple of decent signings they are a top 4 threat.

Koundé will probably get announced tomorrow if I had to guess. Any move for Saul will probably come down to the last minute.

Kante repeatedly getting unfortunate injuries is why a midfield signing is paramount. Even more so than Koundé coming in. ‘We can make do against small teams with Kova and Jorginho but we will get run through against elite midfields.

Bingo. I counted at least twice in the first half where Rom was wide open in the box (once with Mount on the ball and once with Kai) and they didn’t pass it to him. Both would’ve been tap ins.

Not even gonna bother watching the rest. Bent fucking refs.

To give penalties for accidental hand ball is already ridiculous enough. To also be red carded is scandalous.

Perfect performance ruined in one catastrophic defensive scramble. Don’t see any possible way we can hold on to a point for 45+ AT Anfield with 10 men. Completely rattled these fucking cunts and then all the good work undone.

Anyone criticizing Mount starting at this point is a clown. He’s the least of our concerns.

Yeah, as good as Alonso has been these opening 2 matches I’m surprised he’s starting this one. They’re certainly going to target him. You would assume they’re going to press us like monsters to try to put pressure on Jorginho and our wide areas. Hope the lads aren’t shell shocked by the fast start they’re likely to have together with the Anfield crowd.

Everton, WH, and Leicester all ahead. All clubs we want to see drop points on a weekend we have Liverpool away will probably win. 😕

Yep, true. West Beom is another yo-yo club that is a waste who we’ll probably see back again next year.

Norwich might be the only side in the league worse than Arse. They’re literally a complete and total waste of a PL place.

When Arse are actually able to retain the ball in attacking areas they aren’t woeful. They’ve got some pretty nice attacking talent. They started decently against us and here against City for a few minutes. But their midfield and entire defense is shambolic. If they sack Arteta and give a proper manager a couple of windows to rebuild the defense they could be pushing in the 4th-5th range. But they’d still be years away from challenging the big 4. Problem is, they just spunked 130m on extremely average players who a new manager may not fancy. Now they’d have to start another rebuild.

I find them incredibly boring to watch without De Bruyne in their side. They play slow, walking pace football with a thousand short passes. It’s an incredibly skilled and effective machine but they aren’t really that exciting without KdB pulling the strings.

I know a lot of people think Conte wouldn’t lower himself to Arse’s level, but if they sack Arteta this week and beg him to rescue them I think he might do it. A chance to bring back a “sleeping giant” who’s in crisis. He’d be a hero. And just as I’m typing this City score again! 😂

LMAO!!! This might be a 6-0. They could start the season with 0 points from 9 and a -10 goal difference or something. 😂😂😂
