Go away Pep
By jts Go To Posthttp://bit.do/euroslaentAh, sorry, missed that.
Did I spend time in this for nothing
edit: I can also add questions
Can we throw this in the title?
By Phlebas Go To PostGo away PepWhy on earth would he buy him back?
Guardiola sold Kroos because they didn't get along.

By Francis Go To PostWhy on earth would he buy him back?I think Pep likes him
Guardiola sold Kroos because they didn't get along.
Most likely his wage demands forced Bayern to sell him
By Esch Go To PostI thought real Madrid fans didn't like Toni Tony Toné, thoThat crazy talk.
They want to keep him?
Toni Kroos has been incredible for us.
By Esch Go To PostI thought real Madrid fans didn't like Toni Tony Toné, thoWith Casemiro on the field he's great
They want to keep him?
We've been playing him as lone DM for the past one and half years
By Esch Go To PostI thought real Madrid fans didn't like Toni Tony Toné, thoSurprises me too, to be honest.
They want to keep him?
I thought he was a lazy bum. It's what I've been told all season.

Nah m8, I fucking love him
By Francis Go To PostWhy on earth would he buy him back?

Kroos wanted lots of money.
Do Madrid fans still want Ronaldo gone?
By JesalR Go To PostAh, sorry, missed that.No harm no foul breh.
Can we throw this in the title?
Based on your excellent question suggestions, I’ve added:
Player of the Tournament
Top Scorer
Golden Glove
Lads who’ve answered already without these questions please do-over, I’ll eliminate the old answers.
By Francis Go To PostSurprises me too, to be honest.

Modric -Casemiro-Kroos
is easily our best midfield setup, he's doing well in this system. We'd be fools to think of letting him go
By OneTwoTee Go To PostSakho Lovren Matip GomezHopefully Gomez shows enough in preseason for Klopp to be able to decide whether he's ready to play there
What a time to not have to sign any CBs
Wish we could keep Toure, but with no Europe next season I don't think we can guarantee him any minutes. Having said that, Sakho is pretty injury prone, Matip could be shite, Lovren's form could tank and Gomez might not be up to it. The 4 you listed could be enough, or it could end up being woefully inadequate.
By Wedward Go To PostDo Madrid fans still want Ronaldo gone?I was one of the fans that said he may need to move on.. But how can I argue 50 goals? I mean the man just keeps producing and proved me wrong.
He still has a place in Madrid. He's accepted that he may now need to be benched time to time to enter his next phase professional football.
He's staying. I'm eating crow.

By Cleff Go To PostI reckon a misguided bid for Pogba after Mino leads Woowar down the garden path is in order.
Nailed on. No way Perez isn't getting in on that action.
Ronaldo was awful earlier tonight but to be fair to him it was obvious that he was playing through injury.
Nah.

Perez ain't a fan of interracial 🌝
Don't need pogba, stay away Perez.
ST and backup LB, really think that's all we need to round out the team.
Think jese might get time out on loan, should give Mayoral some playing time next season.

I prefer United not broadcasting to the world who it is they're targeting. First few summers of Woodward making a fool of himself were more than enough. Last season was a step in the right direction. First time we heard about links to players was when the deal was almost completed. Sergio Ramos thing aside of course.
By LFMartins86 Go To PostI´m almost done doing the table with the predictions posted here before.jt already did it m8

Casemiro can't play everygame
Lots of pressure on Woodward to deliver the players Mourinho wants. Don't want to start him off in a huff because recruitment was fucked up.
James Rodríguez would definitely have come if Moyes or LVG were still in charge but Mourinho isn't dumb enough to bring in a player who doesn't really want to come in the first place.
I would have loved to have him, though - under different circumstances.
Fantastic footballer.

By Gurthang Go To PostBack Up DM tooRight, almost forgot.
Casemiro can't play everygame
Who do we bring In?
Someone who's good enough to slot in but doesn't mind riding the bench.
First big links of the summer are Subotic and Diafra Sakho. Both are on the cusp of being believable and would be solid signings. Though I am in no hurry to see Sam split up the Kaboul/Kone partnership, Subotic would be a nice upgrade on O'Shea...
I added the link to the thread title. Hope it doesn't offend anyone.
Good job jts I'll fill it out when I have some time

Don't want to start him off in a huff because recruitment was fucked up.Read an article on this, on the one hand Mou has the most funds and we will go after whoever he wants, and no-one is going to impose or say to him "We want this player" (ala Madrid/Chelsea), on the other hand we have no CL and a dodgy man negotiating.
I really hope Mou has been sewing some seeds while off under the impression he was coming in.
