I didn't realize that Bryan Mbuemo has so many fans for being late to training.
What happened to rashford when he did that š.

Didn't see that how many times has he been late? . Bit surprising its not been reported widely.
No excuse for being late to work consistently.
I must ask Keith if he was like that at Brentford.

Fantastic news today. Bonana š has been called up by Cameroon. We will have BM back in no time. š.

Did the other 63 keepers from Cameroon call in injured?

We haven't had much chat about January with the window approaching. What do people think the realistic ins and outs are. Personally I think it will be very quiet with little either way.
0
10 Dec 2025 13:03:51
Agreed. Need outs before any ins.

Will Mainoo stay? He seems pretty unhappy.
If he goes on loan, does a Gallagher or possibly Baleba at a push, come in?
Midfield looks light due to amorim not trusting ugarte and mainoo. We are fools if we don't bring in a midfielder. But we can be pretty foolish, so who knows.
2
10 Dec 2025 15:43:13
Outs = unfortunately Mainoo, hopefully a loan but maybe permanent.
Ins = assume we will get a CM on loan like we did with Sabitzer a few years ago.
2
10 Dec 2025 15:52:54
Mainoo out on loan, possibly a loan coming in as replacement.
Don't think they'll be any permanent transfers coming in. January isn't really a good month and we probably won't have funds available.
We have Rashford, Hojlund, Sancho, Onana, Amass and Colyer all out on loan. I expect we will do a bit of business in the summer if we can turn some of these loans into permanent deals.
1
10 Dec 2025 17:46:23
I'd imagine malacia zirkzee mainoo and ugarte are all available in January if the right offer or interest comes.
A Gallagher loan probably will come to fruition if we move on one of the 2 midfielders.
A forward might be brought in if we find someone with the right profile and zirkzee moves.

While the result last night was great, it was again a case of starting well, getting the goal and then just sitting back allowing a very bad team back into the game and scoring. It then takes the managers half time rant to get the team going again. Men on the pitch, why can't they react on the pitch, there's huge experience out there Casemero Bruno.
1
09 Dec 2025 23:09:31
Start Mainoo.
0
09 Dec 2025 23:44:32
And drop whom? Where does Mainoo fit int this team? He is better than ā¦. Bruno? Casemiro? Mount? Mbeumo?

Think with the exception of de ligh for heaven that was sour best 11 on Monday night.

10 Dec 2025 10:29:57
Doesnt say much about the new striker we just bought if that was our best front 3 last night lol.
1
10 Dec 2025 10:57:21
Our new striker isn't fit dsg and hasn't really been all season to get good run.
1
10 Dec 2025 12:33:14
Apologies, because de ligt was referenced who was injured i thought we were including injured players.
2
10 Dec 2025 20:31:30
Move Bruno to 10's with Mainoo in the 8 position CAS in the 6. Personally drop mount and have Cunha Mbeumo and Bruno as front 3.
0
09 Dec 2025 12:41:52
Assuming they get clearance to play next Monday then that will be the last game for our entire right side of defence and attack. Mbeumo amad and maz will all be off.
Yoro heaven and martinez will be in line to replace maz you'd think. Amad is more concerning as we will look to dourgu and dalot as the likely replacement.
Mbeumo I figure will either be bruno pushing on and mainoo into midfield or sesko coming back and mount playing from right.
A few tricky fixtures villa Newcastle and city in particular over the period it will be interesting to see who plays and how the do. Mbeumo is a huge miss imo.
1
09 Dec 2025 13:06:33
Unfortunately Onana wasn't called up by Cameroon. That means Mbeumo will be away for much longer.
10
09 Dec 2025 13:56:34
cameroon have a pretty poor team and not what used to be. they might be back earlier than you think.
0
09 Dec 2025 15:20:48
De Ligt coming back, and Lisandro Martinez getting more minutes means we should be ok with Mazraoui out. I really hope we get in the attacking wing back as I think that's the position we'll struggle in.
0
09 Dec 2025 18:50:03
Yeah Don i think maz is by far the easiest to cover especially with heaven coming in recently and i'm sure that's no coincidence. Yoro looked a bit edgy for a couple of games, so having heaven game fit was a good move imo. The midge will hopefully get the chance then to ease himself back instead of the need to throw him back in full throttle.
Wb is an issue both sides. Amad is by far our best option maz next best with both missing it only leaves dalot and dorgu for both sides.
Maybe Shaw could do 30 min or heaven? Young kid unseen thus far Leon? Will they exercise option on bringing amass back?
Mbeumo is a huge hole to fill. Personally i'd like to see bruno take his place and mainoo to play in cm. The other obvious option is mount to play and sesko up front he is back training.
0
09 Dec 2025 20:24:36
Agreed Ken. I'm expecting front 3 to be Mount, Cunha and Sesko but Bruno to play more minutes in the 10 towards end of games with Mainoo getting a bit more of a chance off the bench.
For wingbacks I'd love to see Shaw at LWB. Dalot and Dorgu don't fill me with any level of confidence.
0
09 Dec 2025 21:28:21
Shaw would not last more than 30 min as lwb. His body won't allow it plus he doesn't have the ability.
1
09 Dec 2025 21:33:40
It sounds like Amorim likes Heaven. Hopefully De Ligt get's back fit and perhaps we see Heaven go into the LCB position and Shaw into LWB. Personally, i'm not sure on Shaw in that role anymore as I think he needs the game in front of him but I guess it's another option to consider. Imagine Dalot will go into RWB for the duration with the possibility of Mount doing a job there. With the lack of Mbuemo's goal threat, I really think we need to get Fernandes closer to the oppositions goal which hopefully opens the door for Mainoo next to Casemiro.
Going to interesting to see how Amorim manages the AFCON time. Would have loved to have seen Lacey get 10 minutes last night. Or even 19 minutes. Not sure where they found the 9 minutes to be honest!
0
09 Dec 2025 23:11:19
Dalot has been one of our better players the last few games.
1
09 Dec 2025 23:49:50
Shaw has more ability in that position than any of our current LWB's.
2
10 Dec 2025 09:40:33
No he doesn't imo and his body won't allow it. No way he can play that role he would be gone for 6 months in no time imo.
1
10 Dec 2025 10:30:05
We are all forgetting Malacia who can play LWB. I thought he might get a few appearances, or perhaps will still get a few sub appearances, to hopefully put him in the January transfer window.
With those 3 players out i wonder whether RA will promote and play more youth players. If one youngster steps up, it could save the club a lot of money.
For all those Academy watchers, who do you think could be promoted to the first team whilst Maz, Amad and Mbeumo are out?
0
10 Dec 2025 10:50:41
I'm not forgetting him start all just don't see him a an option.

Shaw has been excellent this year, he was always solid at LB and would be worth a shot.
2
10 Dec 2025 13:47:27
He hasn't played lb for over 18 months.
Don't you think if he could play there it would have been tried? He can run the distances required he has been decent this year where he is playing.
His body can't do it i feel.
Not fit enough and does not have the stamina or dribbling ability imo.
0
11 Dec 2025 00:27:38
Dorgu can't dribble. Dalot certainly can't. Shaw has an engine and a burst of pace the others don't. He's also a much better crosser than the other two, and a much better passer in general, imo.
Whether RA will ever play him there, I've no idea, but I certainly wouldn't be worrying if he did.

Level on points and an identical record to ātitle chasing Chelseaā only 1 point off 4thā¦. this league is crazy this year! š¤£.

If only Utd could become consistent at winning. It is certainly entertaining this year.

Live chat last night was awesome. Great fun, lots of ribbing, all taken in good spirit, top effort gents.

And this is the only post on the page, nothing from Maze or his 48 other names, we must have won.

09 Dec 2025 11:40:32
GDS2- When we were struggling last season, Maze had a full time engagement, he is only at a 50% utilisation this season and if it finally clicks for us, Maze might be unemployed by next season.

09 Dec 2025 11:43:36
It was AJH! I've only been on it a few times but last night had a lot of ribbing which was great. Even malaga-gooner didn't give it the kiss of death!
