One win in their first four games had people describing the start of Manchester United's season as "a horror" or "disastrous." With three wins dating back to March it was not a fun international break. Many fans were ready to turn on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with some even saying he'd would be sacked by Christmas. …

Two days ago all the reports were saying David de Gea was going to reject a new contract from Manchester United and leave for free next summer. On Tuesday The Guardian is saying he's set to sign a new one, paying him £290k a week, roughly the same as Paul Pogba. Transfer gossip is literally …

Life in a 24/7 news cycle demands immediacy. Patience is a virtue that is no longer shared by the media or it's consumers. Everyone needs more, more stories, more content. So that only makes sense that when nothing is happening the story becomes that nothing is happening. In few places is this more true than …

This has obviously been a major story since the final whistle blew so I'll throw my two cents in. Paul Pogba won a penalty against Wolves on Monday with the score tied at one. Pogba stepped up and took the penalty and missed. This was a big deal because last week Marcus Rashford scored a …
Manchester United's 1-1 draw against Wolverhampton was among the most frustrating you will ever see and just like that all the goodwill Ole Gunnar Solskjaer built up last week is seemingly gone. "At the end of the day, this one is entirely on Ole" was a quote I heard from someone at the bar. While …

Manchester United thrashed Chelsea 4-0 this weekend. That's great for me who's been shouting at all the negative fans that this teams is good and you're all worrying too much. Having said that, it's important to remember it's only one game and this was just Chelsea. Next week's trip to Wolves will be a much bigger …

We've made it fam. The transfer window is over and the new season is upon us. It's not surprising that Manchester United fans are completely divided about to feel heading into this season. It's been like that for like four years now so why should we expect anything different? It's funny because most of those …

Manchester United have signed Harry Maguire and that is a good thing! Forget the money they paid for him, forget that he's now the "most expensive defender," and definitely forget to have the debate about whether he's worth the money or not. None of that matters. It's not my money, it's not your money. The …

Man Utd: “David’s obviously in contention, [but] Ash, when he's on the pitch, will carry the armband. When Ash starts, he'll be carrying the armband,” said Ole in his post-match press conference. When asked if this meant that the right-back had replaced Valencia - who moved to L.D.U. Quito in the summer - as club captain, …

Harry Maguire called out sick from training on Monday. What?!? On what planet does that happen? Players don't call out sick, they show up to work, tell the medical staff they're not feeling well and either don't participate or get sent home. They don't "call out" as if they were you or me! A few …
