Maybe a wee bit but I don't think he's being harsh on Roos. Jury is still well put on him for me

Genuinely wondering if that euro horsing is going to be a season killer for utd.

Coulson looks a real find too. The abz podcast had a boy on from a boro pod to talk about him. He described Coulson as not the best defensively but defo handy going forward. I'm seeing plenty of the latter and hardly any of the former. He looks the best LB we have had for years so far.

This site could REALLY do with a block button.

You're giving him 8 games when there's been such a huge turnover in players? You do you mate but that seems really fucking stupid to me. Imagine the tims had done that with postecoglu last season when he had a similar rebuild to do.

If Ronan comes my guess would be it will be right at the end of the window. It was 42.2 Mill they spunked on a midfielder btw OD. Other than that I don't think we will see any movement in unless bates goes and another cb comes in. Maclennan is surely offski (good luck to him, there's a player in there somewhere), probably Watkins too though I think he's reasonable cover.

Il bow to your superior view but I can defo see where SB was coming from. Also thought he seemed a bit slow getting down for the first. It was hard to tell but his feet may have been all wrong and it hindered him.

Aye but you get to laugh at utd fans for ages about this. Swings and roundabouts

Goodwin also said still wanting one more creative player in. Must still be after ronan

Just watching Goodwins presser now. Aye thats the bad news. The good news is Coulson should be back training next week. Gutted for roberts but at least we are well stocked in his position.

Not yet, nothing on roberts either. Goodwin will be doing his Motherwell presser today so should find out then.

I don't think we have seen him play anywhere near enough as a lcb to say that with any certainty 2bh. In fact the only times we have to my memory has been against celtic and St m and I didn't think he didn't look out of place at all.

I don't agree he's wasted in defence.

I have mixed feelings on ramirez. He's going to be on a big wedge and if he's just going to sit on the bench most of the season that wage could be better deployed. That said he is an effective striker at this level. I disagree about Miovski and Duk though. Miovski looks like a much quicker and technically capable Adam Rooney to me and Curtis Main could try to finish like Duk did on Saturday 100 times and maybe get one in. The only way I would agree with not taking another cb in is if Mackenzie is going to be getting used at lcb.

Agreed, total glory hunter Barron is another 3 weeks at least I believe manc. I expect Goodwin will go with the team that won him the game on Saturday, that seems to be very much his mantra in interviews. Scales was excellent at lb and Clarkson can clearly hold his own in Mcrories cm berth. I fully expect us to win this but you just know Motherwell are going to bring their thuggish worst so unless we get an early goal it could be a bit of a slog. Out Work Rtv Dunno 3-0 Kennedy, Miovski and Duk from the bench again.

I'm not saying it wouldn't hurt but if we got scales and money for Barron I could probably live with it. Purely on the grounds that I think we need scales more than we need Barron right now.

We've still not heard anything about Coulson which is worrying. He was supposed to be getting an mri on his ankle today. Not to sound heartless but if it's bad I wonder if the loan can be cancelled and his wage redeployed . I really hope its not bad though, I've liked the look of him from the little we have seen.

https://www.ft.com/content/99bee2fb-89c5-4bd0-b99c-322f5e1686e6 Long read but goes through the financial insanity that is barca pretty well. I wasn't aware that camp nou is getting a 1.5 billion revamp but unbelievably it's already been financed.

"oh you cunt" was my response when it happened. Clumsy lunge with no intent to get the ball at all.

I clocked that yesterday and I instantly thought back to this conversation. Gave me a wee wry smile I have to say. Goodwin also said Coulsen is to get an mri tomorrow on his ankle which sounds fairly fucking ominous.

Lots to love about us that game. Agree Stewart needs to calm down with the Beckenbauer passes but I really like him as a cb. Really felt for Coulson having to come off so early as he was looking lively. Some ping by Clarkson and goal aside he slotted in nicely and contributed well. I still think Duk needs to lose half a stone but that was a cracking finish and I loved how much he loved it. Celebrated like he'd just scored the winner in Cup final.

We defo need a bit more depth in midfield

If so that puts our outlay at at about 1.75 Mill.

Me either. A cb and a cm should be the priorities imo

My bad, I thought the lc started at least a week early and didn't bother to check
