    One injury in each department and we are messed up. We need another CB who can actually step in to play properly (worried about Maguire and Lindelof stepping in now). Another RB, as its wan Bissaka if Dalot gets an injury. Malacia is good, but has zero attacking output, but hoping he will...

    Rumours that we are in conversation with Sangare. If so, that would be good. Unproved in the Prem, but atleast we are actively trying to address a DM sort of signing, which has been needed for multiple windows now. I'm still not seeing ST as a major issue right now, because I don't know where...

    Actually, a player of Bissouma's profile is something that we need. We need a player who is also good at doing the dirty work, which most of our players can't do. Granted, he has been slowly moulded into more of a box-to-box player, but he is still excellent defensively. We probably didn't go...

    And the lack of center forwards, for one. Even now, I can't name too many proper strikers available on the market. It's slim pickings, in general.

    It's more a testament to our screwed up squad building than anything else. Or panic-driven signings? Maguire was decent in the low block used earlier, because his pace (or lack of) wasn't exposed. Then, when we decided to use a medium/high block, he got caught behind (as Scouse so succinctly...

    Didn't Fergie have deals lined up for Thiago, Strootman (before the injury woes) and potentially Lewandowski lined up? With Rooney to be moved on. Moyes just dithered and overpaid on ****** Fellaini. I don't think anyone thought Moyes was the logical anything post Fergie. But yeah, even if we...

    Oh, and speaking of FM and Woodward, in my save, he decided to postpone his retirement by 3 years, so yeah... Yay.

    This part is puzzling me as well. Especially if the United job, as was rumored, was available (considering the owners probably had a discussion with him, basis rumours). Why pick Spurs? Unless it's the Paratici connection? But even that can push you so much, surely. But then again, if the chat...

    A 4-2-3-1, with Mbappe up-top is how I was thinking it. It fits, because Mbappe on a free is too good to pass on and Ronaldo is aging, so he's rotational next year. I'm planning to rotate positions, so Bruno is the only one that's fixed. Rashford is slightly inconsistent for me, same with...

    I got Kessie and Araujo (both of whom look like beasts) the first season, so pretty good. (then, a couple of youngsters in January - Cherki and Konigsdorffer) Ronaldo is still a beast, but struggles to press, as expected. Managed to loan out Jones, sell Lingard, Matic and Lindelof. Jones...

    Banned, no? That red in the last match. But instead of a McFred, McTominay and vdB would have made so much more sense, but no, McFred for glory. Sigh.

    Yeah, this has been my issue with a potential Conte appointment since Day 1. He sticks to his system, and many of our best players get binned. And it's Conte - sure, short term, improve us a lot, but when the fall-out happens, we would have sold brilliant players and maybe got stuck with players...

    I'm not even going to mention the match, because I'd be liable to breaking something. We should not be getting that result at Old Trafford, against Liverpool, of all clubs. That was an utter disgrace. Pretty depressing day even in other sports I follow, so more of that to go around. Sigh. I'm...
