I'm sure we are all hoping OGS injects some life into UTD. He has nothing to loose but everything to prove also.

What players can create energy on the field? My energised team would have to be
Martial rashford Sanchez
Periera Pogba Fred
Shaw lindelof bailly dalot
Ddegea

Now that's a young energetic team ( ex Sanchez ) that with some confidence and smiles! Should be able to get out of park and into 2nd gear lol.

On another note wtf did we not sign bale. He is coming into his own. ( Until JM signs as manager.

Pogba should be no where near our team and sooner he's gone the better.

Reddevil, that is the exact team I was talking about at work today. We might be open to the opposition attack but for me we could own the ball with that and really attack. Whilst I hate promoting bad behaviour I would give Pogba the captaincy and make him accountable on the pitch and off it.
Clean skate for the past and let's see what we do going forward.
I just hope Ole is brave with his selections.

I'm hoping we can move Pogba on in January, in an ideal world along with Sanchez.

Lets get rid of De Gea while we are at it Shaps, make sure we have no potentially world class players in the squad ;)

GDS, I'm not doubting Pogba or Sanchez's ability or their potential to be world class. Just that for whatever reason we aren't seeing it with us. If they can't perform for our side then its best they leave. Veron was a world class player, yet he couldn't do it for our club.

Pogba I feel will struggle to reach his potential on a consistent basis, we will see flashes of it during games, maybe even the odd game where he is excellent throughout. Yet he lacks the humility to learn and develop. Without that he will not be able to maximise his talent. Too interested in the "Hollywood ball" rather than the effective one. Until he learns that he will struggle to be the genuine world class talent he could be.

Sanchez is a different issue, he works hard there is no doubt. Yet the rumours of him being a loner and not integrating with the squad are concerning. Our club is called United. We need players who will pull together. The rumours say he is unpopular and isolated, these rumours have followed him from Udinese to Barcelona, from Barcelona to Arsenal and now from Arsenal to us. He was good for Arsenal, yet he really only cemented himself as "world class" during one season where he played as a false No.9. That seems to be his best position, a position I don't see him playing regularly here with us when you consider we have three potentially great/ world class No.9's in our squad. So if we aren't going to see the best of him and he is a disruptive influence within our squad then it is best he moves on.

De Gea is obviously a very different matter, he is world class and generally performs to that level every week while also being well integrated and popular member of the squad. We should be doing all we can to keep him.

Shaps,
I was only joking mate, I agree that Pogba should go and that Sanchez should possibly go as well, although I don’t have any issues with his commitment and do feel he could be different under a different manager that plays to his strengths. The problem is we signed all different players who all have different strengths and play better in different systems and then couldn’t find a system to suit them all.
I will be very intrigued to see if Ole and the team use any of the kids, in my opinion Greenwood and Chong are not far away from being ready, Greenwood is ahead of where Rashford was at the time he came in (which I actually feel was a year or 2 too early, but the way he started it was impossible not to keep him playing) .
