03 Aug 2017 14:04:59
Cameron Borthwick-Jackson seems to be joining Leeds on loan.

Technically not a "rumour" as such but have I missed something with Phil jones/ Man Utd and doping at the europa league final? Sky sports reporting Phil jones banned for 2 European games due to it -
which with bailly suspended as well means smalling&lindeloff against Madrid?
{Ed007's Note - There is no suggestion whatsoever that Jones or Daley Blind, who was also fined the same amount as Jones of £4,500, are guilty of doping. Both players had a run-in with a UEFA anti-doping guy so Jones was fined and banned for verbally abusing the UEFA guy and Blind didn't want to hang about for the test and made his feelings known.
Manchester United have also been fined £8,900 because of the rule breaches and the club have three days to appeal against the decisions.}

Jose's comments about why he is playing Smalling and Lindelof together make perfect sense now so the club were obviously aware this ban was coming.
2.) 31 Jul 2017 15:06:28
Bit of a stupid way to get banned, after the Rio incident you would have thought the club would not have stood for any messing around when it came to drug testing.
3.) 31 Jul 2017 15:18:34
I'm sure a two game European ban will have little to no bearing on transfers but could any of the Eds clarify if we are seeking to sell any defenders? Darmian/ Smalling/ Jones/ Blind were all mentioned in the past (I have read the page and listened to the Sharkpod) . Given Bailey and Jones are out of CL and Shaw and Rojo have long term injuries, are any of these players likely to leave or will it likely be January before we see some movement here?
{Ed002's Note - There could still be sales.}
4.) 31 Jul 2017 16:21:35
Yeah, I should of said there was no rumour of any doping failure. My bad on that one. But cheers ed :)
{Ed007's Note - No worries mate (yes)
5.) 31 Jul 2017 16:48:58
They were both annoyed about having to stay back after the Europa league final and miss the team photoshoot apparently.
6.) 31 Jul 2017 17:45:58
Why has it taken those Muppets at uefa 2 months to deal with this though surely it could of been handled more efficiently.
7.) 31 Jul 2017 22:40:29
Rio incident is a completely different case tough, he ran away from them. Obviously he had something to hide. Probably snortet some cocaine couple days before and wanted to make sure the substance was completely out of his body before takin the test a day later.
8.) 04 Aug 2017 13:02:04
Apparently, there was a photo taken with a tribute/ banner to all the Manchester victims, which happened two days before. Jones was told he had to miss it to take the test and he told them to eff off till he's had the photo taken. I think its very poor from Uefa. what's another 3 minutes in the scheme of things?
23 Jun 2017 14:16:57
Josh Harrop is joining Preston at the end of his contract.
1.) 23 Jun 2017 14:37:06
Fair play to him, huge respect for turning down a contract extension for first team football. Shows ambition! Kudos.
2.) 23 Jun 2017 15:45:13
best of luck to him.
11 Jun 2017 03:19:13
Ed. Apologies if answered already, but with united clinching the signing of Lindelof, who with Bailly will I'm assuming be first choice, . who out of jones, smalling and rojo is looking most likely to leave?
{Ed001's Note - Jones and Smalling.}
1.) 11 Jun 2017 04:20:06
ED001 are there any clubs inter interested in them?
{Ed001's Note - a few, West Ham would like Smalling. West Brom would like Jones. Stoke are interested in both, though only looking for one centre half, not sure which they favour though.}
2.) 11 Jun 2017 05:08:57
Cheers ED001.
{Ed001's Note - welcome.}
3.) 11 Jun 2017 09:41:07
WIll they both go or is it a case we need to bring one more in first?
{Ed001's Note - both are available.}
4.) 11 Jun 2017 10:53:57
Good answer ed :-)
5.) 11 Jun 2017 11:12:42
Ed - does that mean blind, tfm and tuanzebe rotating as fourth choice dependant on rojo recovery?
{Ed001's Note - I would assume so yes.}
6.) 11 Jun 2017 13:10:42
So no other centre halves arriving we think?
7.) 11 Jun 2017 13:52:50
That's good, Promote youth players as well. Tuanzebe looks like he could be a top player if he fulfills his potential. Early days though.
ED001 what's your take on him?
{Ed001's Note - I like what I saw of him, looks ready for the first team to me.}
8.) 11 Jun 2017 14:48:26
ED001 he looked natural when he played this season. Like a duck to water.
{Ed001's Note - agreed, he is a very natural smooth looking player. Seems to take everything in his stride.}
9.) 11 Jun 2017 17:51:08
Personally would rather keep smalling and let jones go if it was one or the other imo, at least smalling is usually fit for more than 5 games a season lol.
10.) 11 Jun 2017 18:38:32
Jones is the better player of the two but never fit long enough. Pointless keeping either when we have some good youngsters coming through. Give them a chance in the games where a change is needed.
11.) 11 Jun 2017 20:13:24
One thing I can say about Tuanzebe was when he won the reserve team player of the year at the awards he came across very well in the interview afterwards. Seemed like a man who had been playing for years and very humble but with leadership qualities that helped him in the under 21s. Could be special.

I see an article last night about some united fans getting De Ligt 5 printed on their Man Utd shirts.
Seen as he's signed for Juventus. oops 😂😂.
1.) 22 Jun 2019 12:47:18
We're a deluded lot.
2.) 22 Jun 2019 14:22:01
I honestly don’t know a single United fan who believed he was coming here.
3.) 22 Jun 2019 14:40:14
According to sly sports Italy. could be trying to gain more money in sly betting maybe as there is nothing official elsewhere about it.
4.) 23 Jun 2019 02:12:06
Another example of a player using ‘United interest’ to improve contracts a deal.
5.) 23 Jun 2019 08:56:54
Nonsense -
Noting to do with us and he was never on the cards to join.
18 Jun 2019 01:24:27
Not technically united related - but stay with me -
I've just read a report (probably completely untrue but) apparently Barcelona are in advanced negotiations with PSG over neymar, allegedly offering €100m plus Dembele, Rakitic and Umtiti.
Either silly season is truly upon us, or transfer fees have officially gone mental! Although swapping Pogba for varane, Isco and asensio wouldn't be a bad shout ;)
1.) 18 Jun 2019 07:10:56
Transfer fees went mental a long time ago mate. £36 million for Andy Carroll in 2011 confirmed that!
2.) 18 Jun 2019 09:49:16
Betty long before that Utd spend $4.5m on the blind Venetian. A substantial amount for a goalkeeper back in those days. Fees since 1990 have been a riot.
21 Feb 2019 19:33:20
With diarra being released by PSG today, any possibility on bringing him in on a 6 month deal, just to offer a bit of cover to Matic/ Herrera?
{Ed002's Note - Zero, it is not allowed.}
1.) 21 Feb 2019 22:39:28
More to the point why take a past it player who was never that good?
25 May 2023 00:13:09
Welsh I’m guessing TUS is The United Stand podcast.
22 Jun 2020 22:35:50
Is bellingham to Dortmund connected at all with our pursuit of Sancho? Or is that just clutching at straws?
{Ed002's Note - No.}
30 Sep 2019 00:51:00
Although I kind of agree. what makes you think SMS or Saul would want to come to United in this current state?
We used to be the number one choice for players coming to the PL. at this moment in time I’m not even sure we’re even in the top 5.
18 Jun 2019 01:40:06
Quoted from sky. so believe what you will.
“West Ham want a player in return in any potential deal that would see Diop depart for Old Trafford but United are not willing to give the Hammers the player they wantâ€
Any clue on who the player they want is?
02 Apr 2019 04:32:02
So just out of curiosity, who would you guys replace Herrera with who is an improvement and who also will cost less than 200k a week in wages?
10 May 2023 01:32:03
Shappy - 6th was our worst finish? Pretty sure we finished 7th under Moyes.?
28 Jan 2021 01:12:01
To be honest, maybe we needed a loss to remind the players/ fans that we are not “back†yet and there is still work to be done. 13 games unbeaten is still an achievement, But the key now is the reaction for the arsenal game on Saturday and making sure that this one loss doesn’t turn into a 3 or 4 game slump.
15 Dec 2020 02:39:31
Deependra. please don’t anything say that again, you’ve just made half the site feel ancient lol.
14 Jul 2020 01:53:59
Don’t be so silly. we dropped points. #oleout
(Sarcasm btw)
06 Jul 2020 01:40:43
More like bellion than Beckham ðŸ˜.
