The Telegraph’s Jason Burt got one more mention in, so let’s talk about it. Burt wrote that Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers is in demand in a potential […]
Manchester United revealed its dates for preseason friendlies this upcoming summer, and the destinations will be much closer to home than has been the case for the last 24 years. United have typically played some preseason games in Europe, with an odd match in Ireland, Scotland, Norway or Sweden before heading to either East Asia […]

Manchester United’s transfer planning is reportedly well underway during the March international break, with various outlets providing briefs on the club’s plans to address problems in midfield.

If reports are to be believed, Harry Maguire looks set to sign a new deal that’ll keep him at the club for another year with an option for another year. Maguire, who was sidelined under Erik ten Hag, got back in favor under Ruben Amorim and has been a mainstay under Michael Carrick. The England […]
All the reports on United’s summer window targets suggest that midfield is the biggest area of concern and that Elliot Anderson is the biggest priority. Of course, there are two obstacles here: Nottingham Forest and Manchester City. Nottingham Forest will certainly play hardball, as is their right, and City have made it known that Anderson […]
After a hot-and-cold month that saw them draw at Bournemouth, lose at Newcastle, and beat Aston Villa and Crystal Palace, Manchester United will be looking to make it six home wins in a row as they take on Leeds United on April 13. And if they are to fend off Daniel Farke’s side, they’ll need […]

Harry Maguire and Marcus Rashford, who is on loan at Barcelona, started for Thomas Tuchel’s England while Manuel […]
Manchester United Women have been under the leadership of manager Marc Skinner for nearly five seasons now.

[…]
Manchester United Women’s season continues to unravel after a heavy defeat in the Manchester Derby at Old Trafford on Saturday.

Manchester United look set to end the season as the league’s third-highest goal scorers, which is a welcome stat considering how poor they were in the forward areas last season. Still, it must be said that this hasn’t been the most entertaining of league seasons. Arsenal, who currently top the league table and the ‘goals […]
Manchester United’s plans for a new stadium were unveiled early on in the INEOS era, but after nearly two years with co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe in charge of the footballing side of the club, there hasn’t been much update on the plans until recently. Collette Roche, the recently appointed chief executive of New Stadium Development, […]
It is no longer fashionable to lament on United’s failings over the years. They are well documented, and most United fans, and even critics, by the look of things, just want the solutions without ruminating too heavily on the methods by which they are achieved. For fans, the reasons are obvious, and for those who […]
New episode of The Fergie Fledglings! Nathan returns to join Colin and Pauly for a recap of his Old Trafford visit for the 3-1 win over Aston Villa, a much more enjoyable outing than the 2-2 draw at Bournemouth, which is also explored. As always, thank you for listening and be sure to save and […]
Bruno Fernandes receives a pass from Casemiro on the left side of midfield. The United captain is nearly parallel to me as I sit several rows above the United bench.

Take the Point – Suwaid United were quite unfortunate not to get all three points yesterday. Bournemouth – never ones to sit back – left themselves quite open, but United didn’t take advantage in the first half. The second half was more even before inconsistent refereeing took centre stage, and as frustrating as that was, United […]
Manchester United were left to hold onto a 2-2 draw at Bournemouth after inconsistent refereeing ended Harry Maguire’s night early.

Eli Junior Kroupi […]
