If youd have been told 3 months ago that wed have moved on Lukaku, Sanchez, Smalling and Darmian this window, most of us would be chuffed to bits. Now they are gone / going there are some whinging and moaning about them going and the squad being thin and so on.
Quit it chaps. Its embarrassing and plays up to the football worlds opinion that Unites fans are entitled, spoilt brats. Things could be a lot worse (Bury, Bolton)
We have a decent squad, filled with young, exciting players, that could very well make top 4 this season with quality to be added no doubt over the next few windows.
GK - DDG, Romero
LB - Shaw, Young
CB - Maguire, Lindelof, TUANZEBE, Jones, Rojo, Bailly
RB - AWB, DALOT
CM - Pogba, MCTOMINAY, Fred, PEREIRA, Matic, GOMES
AM - Lingard, Mata, CHONG, JAMES,
CF - RASHFORD Martial, GREENWOOD

Perverse thing is, we can maintain our level whilst using our squad. Liverpool lose VVD or a FB or Mane for any ength of time and their level drops hugely.
Same goes for Chelsea with Kante, Abraham or Pulisic.
And Arsenal if they lost Auameyang or Lacazette
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What if we lost Maguire and Rashford
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Then we have Tuanzebe, Jones, Bailly, Rojo, Greenwood, Chong, James to step in.
The point is the difference in quality in our first 11 and 2nd string isn't as big as that at Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes it is. Jones? Bailly? 😂 Rojo? Chong who you’ve probably seen play twice.
Our squad is poor and other sides have better back up options
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Name them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Take Arsenal - at left back they have Tierney, Monreal and Kolisanic. In midfield they have Ceballos, Xhaka, Guendozi, Torreira, Elmeny, Willock etc
Up top they have Laca, Auba, Nelson, Pepe, Ozil, Micky, etc
Miles better squad than ours
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But the gap is bigger between the ability on their first 11 and 2nd string than ours is, hence they would.feem the impact of a long term injury than we would.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No they wouldn’t - take our two best players out and we suffer more than any other top 6 side
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Who would they be?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably Pogba and Rashford
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you honestly think us losing Pogba and Rashford for say the season, would hurt us more than Liverpool losing VVD and Mane, or Chelsea losing Kante and Abraham, or Arsenal losing Aubameyang and Lacazette?

It would like up like this..
Trent Gomez Matip Robertson
And for Arsenal it would likely be something like this
Toreira Xhaka
Pepe Ceballos Ozil
Nelson
Both sides could absorb that more than us

I do not care about the others but letting Smalling leave is stupid
