Can Man United Win The Quadruple?

Clap on the back to the PL for engineering this discussion in the media - var, refs, cards... :roll:

We’re being told how important of a competition the Europa League is now, by the media.

Utterly pathetic. I couldn’t even tell you which team won it last season, let alone the last three winners of it.

I can tell you it wasn't us. Too busy on a Tuesday or Wednesday night to be involved in that shit.

You know that any competition the rags might win is important.

I just wish I could find that picture of the rag banner taking the piss out of City playing Thursday night football.

Rediculous headline.
Breaking the season into chunks now to feed the required narrative.
That is how you lose credibility.

You have to have credibility to lose it . Talkcrap has never been a credible platform to discuss football.
Their presenters have an agenda , which is unacceptable for a media outlet.

This better not happen or Pep can fuck off along with hos apologists. He should be starting ahead of Mahrez or at least guaranteed that next season.

Don't see what the concern is. He's under contract until 2027. Is there a buy-out clause in place? Barcelona can't afforde anyone.

The player will kick a fuss and ask to leave, that's my concern. Can you blame him if he did? We have a tendency to bend over to Barcelona, it's starting to irk me now

A player who is under contract to City for another 4.5 seasons, who has been here half a season, wants to leave, scream the negative headlines.
Rashford, who is as good if not better than Mbappe (since the WC :lol: ) has only one year left on his contract. Where are the negative headlines?
MU have a wage cap of £200K a week, will Rashford be happy with that? Would Mbappe? :lol: How are MU going to tie the wonder kid and Saint down? Where are the negative headlines?

The media is just BS, biased reporting towards the boys in Red, not to be taken seriously.

imo, a lot of players have left City but very few have been unqualified successes. Maybe, and it is still a maybe, Zinch and Jesus at Arsenal.
If City decide that Alvarez can leave, with four years on his contract, so be it, they know what they are doing.

If Alvarez leaves no one should blame him as our manager hasn’t got a clue how to use him on a regular basis .
It’s like he picks him when he hasn’t played for a few Games just for picking him sake.

Álvarez is the real and will be a star for any other team.

If he leaves ill start a Baldie out thread .
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

Rags? Media? Rashford?
What's that got to do with an unhappy player? It's true players can go if they're unhappy. Alverez has proven himself on the big stage, zinch and Jesus not fit enough to lace his boots so let's put it into perspective. I can't blame him if he wants to fuck off based on playing time. Mahrez is aging and doing well, but Alverez is the future, I'd prioritise his playing time over Mahrez.

I like Mahrez, very skilled, best first touch in the league, super left foot. But Alvarez and Foden, when playing well, are far more mobile and energetic, that gives us a much needed dimension against blanket defences.
Mahrez is slower and more predictable.

Get your best players playing well and get them in the team. Simple no need for mass over complication.

And, sadly, Mahrez is 32.

Mahrez is good for the games we need to keep the ball. Foden/Alvarez are better for the games we just want to attack the opposition and blow them away.
