He's the sort of player who, if we'd gone for, there'd have been a meltdown about us going for potential over established/proven names. Don't think Mane's cr*p as such but when you've been expecting Muller and Pedro, it's quite a come-down.
So United have missed out yet again on a big signing, with Pedro heading to Chelsea. They'll turn their attentions elsewhere. But which world superstar have they bid for now, in their search for a huge marquee signing? Benzema from Real Madrid? Muller from Bayern Munich? Ibrahimovic from PSG? Nope. They've bid for Mane from Southampton...
Benteke - hardly put a foot wrong, good movement, touch, link up and goal Coutinho - always our creative force, some wonderful moments. Joy to watch Clyne - consistently solid at the back, consistently got forward well, did nothing wrong
I wasn't saying we should pay off his contract, I was just saying if the club chose to do so, it actually wouldn't cost that much. If Rodgers thinks his presence is detrimental and a bad influence, then I'd rather he wasn't around.
Owen criticising Brugge for attacking and tying to score goals. Quite right Michael, they should just sit back, invite United on to them and wait for the ball to fly into their net.
West Ham's appeal against Adrian's red card has been rejected, so he has a 3 match ban and will therefore be suspended for our game against them at Anfield.
