Lol...

So United bite the bait and got CR7 while they couldn't sign a proper central attacking midfielder....that's gonna be their achilles heel this season especially when they face good tactical teams...

I was wondering how his PR team is gonna explain move to mid-table team after two years of crying that Juve is not good enough to win trophies, but I see the "coming home" and narrative about ex-teammates "touching his heart" kicked in, lol 

Man utd finished second last year explain to me in detail how that is a mid table team?

I imagine they will get Saul now and maybe Trippier.

Are we not in for Saul any more?

I am fine with media and everyone talking about and focusing on Man United and Ronaldo. While others may quietly slip under the radar.

If Ole fails with that squad then it's curtains for him but just imagine how dangerous they will be under a proper manager.

Just like us, we could finish anywhere between 2 and 6, it didn't matter. United at the moment are cynically managed, conflict and internal issues-ridden club with unclear ambitions and joke of a manager in form of Ole at the wheel, relying on enforcing controversial penalties that belongs to Europa League. This is different planet in terms of ambiton, sport level, mentality and reputation than Juventus. If You criticize Juve for not being good enough and unable to secure national title and CL win and at the same time move to United, you can't be serious.

And as far I respect every rival I can understand us fearing City, but fearing United in present form doesn't look much like winners mentality; Personally, I'm not bothered at all by their recent transfers and considering them serious title contenders seems huge exaggeration to me; Note that every time we lost to them we pretty much lost to ourselves (like we often did in recent times), not to their immense greatness.

That’s what I thought, expensive even by his standards.

Lower salary than in Juve. He just wanted to compete.

 United with Ronaldo ?

We are clear 😉

 

[Superblue 6,372]

It'll be intriguing to see how Ronaldo copes with the grind of English football again at 36 years old.

It will no doubt give United a massive shot in the arm in the short term with such a talismanic figure.

However it doesn't sort out their midfield which continues to be ignored by Ole, and besides their attacking options they look pretty lightweight in depth around areas of their squad (certainly quality depth).

I still believe if we can add Kounde and Saul (or an equivalent central midfielder) in this window, we'll have the strongest and most balanced squad across Europe.

That's partly because we never faced Real Madrid in 2 decades, and the time that we FINALLY did he was in Juventus.

But that could sadly change now.

Correction: it was mainly because we had Ashley Cole.

While he is completly tactially unfit for City, he's talented diver, so United seems right choice, welcome more penalties because penalties 

Hmm..that's the only thing that  bothers me. He will  become the PL poster boy again. VAR...
