Manchester United Thread 25/26 - Teamtalk/Transfers/Gossip Mod Note in OP 12.02.26

Dorgu on that left side with Cunha as the left side forward feels like a good fit imo - allowing Cunha to come in while Dorgu goes outside.

Mad to think he's only 31 in July. Will be interesting to see if they open contract talks with Shaw within the next 12 months. Any contract will surely come with a reduction. As good as he's been I hope we look to improve at LB this summer.

Comms this week is top notch stuff. Great getting it every week. Give Big Michael anything he wants. What a turnaround. The front three and Bruno have so many goals in them. Great to see.

You wouldn't be able to even give him away for free given his wages. It's unfortunate about his injury record because he was playing good this season when available.

West Ham another team we haven’t had much luck with recently. No win in the last 3 games. 2 defeats.

Those 3 players rumoured as injured - it seems to be fake ⬇️

Todibo suspended is the only confirmed absentee I believe. Apparently some players are injured but Nuno hasn’t named them.

On our own lads - Mbeumo was seen limping after the Spurs game. Carrick didn’t mention him in his pre-match presser. SullyTalks (a guy with inside info) tweeted that Mbeumo is fine but then deleted the tweet.

A win would be massive heading into the two week break for confidence, but also coming in and winning 5 in a row would be crazy stuff for Carrick & co. I hope they get over the line.

Hopefully…. what an incredible start for Carrick, five in a row and up to third would be massive.

I often hear people say that, that Mount is a top class player only for the injuries.

Is he really though? Even if he was always fit, I think he'd probably be a decent bench player.

1992 scarred me as well. We handed the title to Leeds that Wednesday night in April at Upton Park. I remember listening to it on BBC Radio 5 and was sick after it. Then of course 1995….

I always looked forward to Man United games when we were pure dire in recent years, but have to say, the excitement has ramped up big time since the last few results under Carrick

Long may it continue!

Would agree that he's a top class player. However, I would also also agree that he's probably a bench player as well… but I don't mean that as a slight on him, he would be a top class bench player (/sometimes starter) in a very strong squad.

A "decent bench player" doesn't give him enough credit imo.

As much as I rate him, I wouldn't have him down as a guaranteed starter. I would definitely have Cunha and Mbeumo ahead of him, and Amad as well.

If Bruno extends his deal, I would hope to see Mount being used to prolong Bruno's career and his own. The 2 would be ideally rotated a lot for me.

Its nearly 2 weeks until the next game so no real need for rotation, just play a full strength team and keep the momentum going.

No point changing a winning team if everyone is fit and ready to go.
