    Old thread here: https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057876092

    New thread start!

    Mod note 31-Aug-18

    CMod note:

    It has come to my attention that this thread is attracting more than it's fair share of trolling.

    It has to stop.

    Any pot-shots or derogatory remarks will be dealt with harshly.

    I will be monitoring reported posts from time to time so troll at your peril.

    Think of the Dirty harry scene before you post - "you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?"

    Thanks for reading.

    Steve.

    ronaldo only play 30 games for sporting when we signed him, dalot will surprise a lot of people

    For Ronaldo there are literally 1000s of players signed that dont make it so that’s a strange analogy to make.

    What are you basing your “Dalot will surprise a lot of people” comment on? Have you seen him play?(difficult considering he has so few senior appearances)

    48 hours from now, depending on your outlook, this place will either be delighted after putting Leicester to the sword, or absolutely toxic if United lose..

    Dalot could be the next Rafael da Silva in that he progresses into being 1st choice RB..........or he could be the next Guillermo Varela


    Obviously we all hope hes more Rafael than Varela but theres no way to know at this stage.

    He is basing it on nothing, all he has done this summer from what I have seen is a set up for his main course during the season.

    Some positive news to start the new thread:

    https://twitter.com/BILD_Sport/status/1026933259907751936

    Boateng tells Mourinho he's not coming.

    I know it's Bild but let's just be positive and hope it's true.

    If we don't get Toby in or a really good cb and just pay the cash then you'd assume there's doubts about Mourinho and an unwillingness to back him any longer.

    seen him play against liverpool.

    he just looks ready, he is big, strong and fast already, has the body type of a much older player, thats why i think he will surprise a few, because they are not expecting much.

    As far as I can tell I think he thinks that adox has convinced Heisenberg to join us.

    Or he could be basing it on the manager's comments regarding him as the best young full back in Europe for his age.

    Plenty of others here setting up their "main course" as you put it too. Expect the "Jose wasn't backed" excuse after any and all sh*t performances over the coming season.
