I don't think we were letting DDG go until after that FA cup final. That's the only way it makes sense. Besides the mistakes, I hear he blanked the Glazers in the post game medal ceremony. Not a smart thing to do to your employers when your contract is done!

Anyone that says he’s crap hasn’t watched him properly clearly. Whenever he was fit, especially with a run of games he always looked a class above our other players. The injury’s have been the problem not his ability

Quality player he should of joined a few years earlier. Injury has plagued him at United but i thank him for his service and wish him all the best in the future.

No one likes Rasmus, Martial, and Lindelof. Rashford is not the problem at all. It's silly to say so.

His quality is beyond question. Even half arsed he put everyone bar Evans and Martinez to shame that we've signed in the last 10 years at centre back. Injuries hampered him and that was the issue. Wouldn't have minded keeping him, but that would have been on severely reduced wages/pay as you play deal and I doubt he'd be up for that.

The problem isn't that he's a bad player, the problem is he was a terrible signing for Manchester United. He wasn't in full decline yet but he was nearing it, that's exactly why Real Madrid replaced him. We put him on a huge deal and signed him as the pillar of our defence. Not his fault at all but shows the terrible decision making at the club. We had no youth that he was supposed to mentor, and we weren't on the verge of winning the league where the van Persie type signing makes sense. Really put the cart before the horse with him

He’s just returning from an ACL tho, so dunno how he’s doing, but he is the guy. If you want a great CB pairing of old, the likes of Bruce & Pally, Rio & Vidic..

Perr Schuurs (Torino) fits the mould perfectly to pair up with the Butcher 💪🏽… they played 70 games together at ajax so they're familiar with each other and such a silky defender. Should be come fairly cheap too. My only concern is Martinez injury if it becomes a recurring one. But that's a problem for another day.

Rashford and Luckhurst can go together for 80 mill.

Varane was class for us, always very professional and he consistently played at a high level.

United buying players past their sell by date is nothing new. United buying players and making them look stupid is nothing new. Many years ago we bought a player called Gary Birtles from Forest, he was a potential superstar had won 2 European cups and scored goals for fun. He played with the ball to his feet running at defenders. We played him as a target man with the ball flying into his head hence no goal in first 25 games.

Garnacho hasn't played so well in the last two games doesn't mean that Mainoo and Amad are better than him. In those games also, the entire front 3 (if not the entire team played badly).I hate when people sit behind the microphone and display signs of selective amnesia. Tune it down a bit with Mainoo because I have seen how several England born players faired over the years. So spare us the Mainoo stuff.

Clubs like Real & Bayern dont let there legends go unless they know they are on the way down. And weve gotten done so mang times with this in the last 10 years. Schwienstiger, Verane, Casemiro Not to mention the stupid free signings, Ronaldo, Cavani, Zlatan, Falcao. Hopefully those days are over

The reason Varane's leaving is because the offers are coming in for him. The players we moan about week in week out are probably still gonna be here, because not many teams will pay their wages... Varane's getting on and is frequently injured, yes, but still runs rings around Maguire, Lindelof, and Evans. Hopefully Martinez will be fully fit next season, But Varane leaving isn't great news. We had a solid defensive partnership last season, and we should replace him with a quality CB next season... Not just the cheapest or the most available option.

United did try to sign him at 18 and I seem to recall that he played a champions league game at Old Trafford for Lens around that time. It was already obvious he was different class. He went to Real Madrid instead of United and I suspect he was left with a tinge of remembering that time and then ultimately signing for United.

Varane was just one of the many players we signed 5/6/7/8 years too late

i think the club might have a age cap on players we have and players we sign. just a thought as all the players leaving are declining. lets just wait and see how old the players are that we sign

Despite his struggles, he had a good run at united, it's time to upgrade!

26:00 Man United played thier best football under Ole. We went into big games with the hope that we could beat them. I'd take Ole back over all the other managers Man United have been linked with. Ole over Potter, Southgate, Tuchel and the rest.

If you look at clips of Varanne at Real Madrid he had the best attributes of Kyle Walker combined with the best attributes of Wan Bissaka. Speed, tackles, tight progressive control.

Thing is we can't just "sell" players. We need to be realistic, we have a load of seriously overpaid players and underperforming players on our books. If we can sell (which is unlikely) we need to drop their price heavily. Even then the player probably won't move because of what would be a serious drop in wages. Newcastle have had loads of players they can't get rid of since they were taken over and they'd probably take nothing for a Hendrick or Hayden. Then there is the cost of replacing these players. It's going to take years of sensible investment to fix.

The Fa cup v dippers was a good show case of Garnacho. He was excellent. You just get a bit if inconsistency with youth. He will develop into a top player. I agree build with the youth and sign good young technical players.

That green and gold kit was gorgeous, still got mine. Sponsor looks top on it as well.

Let's be real. Varane was a great player but a stupid signing. It's the epitome of a Manchester United signing these days. Either someone completely over hyped like Maguire, or someone entering the end of their prime or start of their decline. Zlatan, Cavani, Varane, Casemiro, Ronaldo. None were bought to plug a hole or with any succession plan in place, they were bought to go into the starting 11 as the main man. Who thought that's how we should be building the squad?

The fact that everyone blames Ole that we have Maguire when Jose literally wanted him the year before is mad.

“Rashford needs a move to get back to where he was” are you seriously saying this he was always like this, he was never a top player he was always an overrated/overrated player. Not top club will buy him only psg because any player can score goal there which I think even if they buy him he will be on bench not long before they come to know how wasteful he is with ball in his leg. If Rashford leaves united he will just be a player who will not be appreciated by the fan base and club only deluded Man Utd board and fan think he is something special. Mark my word Rashford will be on loan if leave united because no club will tolerate like united for him being bad player

They aren’t the gregarious give players a hug type. They don’t have much of a sense of humour. Look we don’t want a comedian but the players have to warm to them a bit.

Second season, they get some players in, it takes time to gel, they start poor and switch managers, finish 9th. Third season, they buy a few players in key positions, they're 5th with a game in hand, challenging for top 4 still, they've got the best defensive record in the league. Now have a solid base to build on.

Amad has looked bright. Decision making and creates himself time and space on the ball, almost like Scholes.

He’s been a good CB but age, injuries have taken there toll. Football has changed since his Real Madrid and World Cup winning times and he realises that.

Exactly this. For MU his contribution is similar to Bailly.

I'd tend to agree about varane. I do think he was committed to United but largely for professionalism rather than passion. To be fair to him he's not a badge kisser, he's a serious operator. Having said that I think in a months time he won't be thinking much about United ever again. He'll probably end up with a coaching role or similar in Real Madrid, France or Lens and pin his life in Madrid or back home.

That Green & Gold kit is AWESOME Ste, put me down for a 2xl 😍 love it!

Sorry to say this but he wasn’t really anything special in a United shirt, too injury prone, and struggled with the pace of the premier league. His best years was definatly behind him when he joined and Madrid never really put up any kind of fight to keep him. United to stay clear from signings like this going forward.

I think that guy asking about protests against players was probably referring to Greenwood.

Yeah, similar feelings, class signing for us (when he played), but never got the feeling he cared for the club. At the end of the day, he'll only be a miss if INEOS don't replace him properly. 👀

Should have had him at least 5 years ago, but peak Real players don't come to Utd. Casemiro is another case in point. I genuinely hope that era is over. We should not be a retirement home for greats past the best.
