Adryan: I Turned Down United

Flamengo midfielder Adryan has confirmed that he had held talks with Manchester United over a possible move last summer before opting to remain in Brazil. He 17-year-old turned down the opportunity to follow the Da Silva twins and Anderson from Brazil to Manchester as he doesn’t feel like he’s read for a move to Europe yet.

”Manchester United did talk to me and showed interest,” Adryan told Globo Esporte. ”But I was not interested in moving at that point. Let’s see if something adequate comes up in the future. ‘I don’t think about going to Europe so quickly, things need to be done step by step.”

    We have bad experiences with brazil’s midfielders, so somehow i feel relieved…

  2. FletchTHEMAN says:

    It is good to be looking at youngsters and we will miss a few because they aren’t ready to leave. Especially for non european kids, moving to europe to early can keep them out of there national teams U18-U20 etc. So don’t read to much into this.

    Who?

    Good head on young shoulders.

  5. wayne says:

    Why do these cunts have to announce they’ve turned Utd down who gives a fuck and why is it a thread

  6. Clint-Iamyourpapii says:

    Sells Giggs and Jones….buy Adryan :D

    bring back kleberson :)

    could not give a flying fuck

    Send in the clowns

  10. Mikekelly12 says:

    The lad was probably asked the question, the thread is probably an attempt to show we are still in the Market so fair play but like you, I couldn’t give a fuck.

  11. Clint-Iamyourpapii says:

    How Jones and Giggs have drawn so much hate and criticism, bamboozles me !

    How the hell do “fans” bring themselves to such a level where they wish bad luck upon a player and wait in hope for them to have a bad day so they can pounce like disgusting vultures, spreading their hideous dark disease upon fans who have fresh wounds and try to rally a greater number of plastics.

    When angry I lash out at players performances during the game and if its a run of games during the bad spell I get frustrated and constantly point out their flaws and areas of improvement, but I don’t ridicule them at a level where even if they had a good game or even average that I would deliberately set out to criticise them. I try to understand the performance ( Injuries,age,positioning,match sharpness,fitness, discipline).

    The players I do have concerns about(Fabio,Anderson,Fletcher,Nani) rarely do I heavily criticise but instead I do the opposite and hype them up in hope some day they become the players I big up because if was in the crowd I would cheer regardless of who they are, as long as they wear that badge and play with pride, thats enough for me.

    @ Giles. I genuinely believe that IF Fergie had not bought this Jones fella, we’d have won the league by now and still be in the CL. I’ve said this countless times and I really feel that there was absolute NO need whatsoever for us to get Jones in. If Jones hadn’t been bought either Rafael or Smalling would have made the RB position his own. Smalling and Jonny providing cover to the 2 CB’s Rio and Nemanja. A proper solid back 4 would have been played each week and the lads would have got good continuity, trust and most importantly a solid rythem to their game. Its all very well having a big squad and competition for places etc BUT I’ve found it to have a negative impact for us and results this season have illustrated my point clearly. U don’t win leagues, CL’s and cups by changing the team on a weekly basis. Shit doesn’t work that way and that’s a fact! U need a solid back 4 for starters and I feel the defense is the most important part of any team. Its vital. Look at the carrick – scholesy combination in recent weeks and look at how successful its been. We need continuity. Even though that’s a midfield combo, playing players weekly in their preferred positions wins you matches and results speak for themselves. Rio and Jonny is another one. they’ve been immense the 2 of them and thank fuck Fergie hasn’t decided to throw Jones in their as well.

    Look at Barca for example. The reason they have been so successful is caus they basically play them same 11 week in and out with only a number of small changes here and there. And results say it all. They have dominated football for a couple years now.

    So its just my opinion and u can all call me a cunt but I don’t give a fuck to be quite honest. This Jones lad has messed our team around in a big way and therefore I genuinely believe that if he had not been signed things would have been different…

  13. FletchTHEMAN says:

    Sheesh. Conversation with some folks is like that with a bulldog. One sided.

    Re New players that would be a laugh:
    Usain Bolt sounds like he wants a trial after the Olympics. Back to long ball tactics then? Hahaha

  14. EdwinVDS4thewin says:

    I can honestly understand where max is coming from. I was also skeptical at first when we signed Phil and I had a funny feeling that it wasn’t the right decision and move @ the time. I don’t think he’s good enough to play every week for a club like United and especially not @ right back. let’s see what happens. Only time will tell…

  15. DeanStrauss says:

    Not quite sure about that Jones post.

  16. DeanStrauss says:

    As soon as we wrap up #20, I’m sure all attention will shift to “who should/will we sign” ….dominating conversation for the next 4 months.

    I would expect minimal movement. 2-3 signings, at most. Unknown youngsters.

  17. Mikekelly12 says:

    I think Jones has nailed Max’s mrs!! He really doesn’t like our lad! That said, he has been shit for a few months! But he will come good. Forgive the boy and back your future captain!

    Just had to re-post this …….with my answer….

    Lack of class…… unparalleled pathetic stupidity…….

    at least I support Utd unlike you with your negative ramblings……. and I feel you are worth cussing….

    Kindly go fuck yourself and take your stupid alter egos with you….cunts like you make me sick.

    Evening reds,

    Thank you Adryan..

    I dont want one samba boy taking out the playing time of another samba boy (ando) at United ;)

    Oh dear.

  22. TonyBee says:

    Don’t you fucking start Costas…..GRRRRR :lol:

    Cussing that’s a quaint word haven’t heard that one for along time

  24. Clint-Iamyourpapii says:

    Sack Fergie and Jones !

    Bring in Guardiola and Messi, once we sell Jones, we;ll win the treble again, the midfield’s creativity and strength will recover, our goalscorers will be less injured less and will score more and we’re bound to win the Quintuple again.

    Its Jones’ fault we lost against Barcelona, we was ready to win,but because Fergie was interested in Jones he dropped Berbatov as preparation for this season and they we got fucked, because of Jones !

    Because of Jones we lost in the Carling Cup, if we have our Vidic there, we would have won, but Jones took his place and Liverpool now won the Carling Cup.
    Its because of Jones we got beat in the FA cup match vs Liverpool, Jones played in midfield and should have scored at least two but he didn’t and distracted Evra, so its Jones’ fault.

    I don’t like Jones, I don’t think he likes himself either and Max was spot on in July when he said Jones was going to mess up our team.

    You missed MaxFactor!! Maxed my credit card on buying Phil Jones’ new bird champagne. Actually he tells me its not his mrs?! Maximum apologies!

  34. wayne says:

    Mikekelly maybe in this case but it seems players like telling the press they turned Ud down,STR is a Must supporter so don’t think that would be the point of the thread and it happened last summer so don’t see the relevance

    Max you’ve been added to my fuckwit list

  35. BigL says:

    The player we should go for is Lucas Moura if you have’nt seen any clips of this guy do so now!!! UTID

  36. mancdub says:

    How many 19 year olds are performing consistently in prem at the moment. We’ve seen Jones make mistakes this season. Mainly with the positional side of his game. But we’ve also see him display great maturity, energy, workrate, leadership qualities and courage. Sure he’s not the finished article but what 19 year old is. In terms of raw talent he’s one of the best teenagers around. I’ve no doubt he will one day become captain of both club and country. Also his attitude is spot on.

  37. dannysoya LOVES SIAN MASSEY says:

    This is my take on Phil Jones. I don’t believe in overdoing and overhyping his versatility. I believe he was signed to be a DEFENDER at Manchester United and NOTHING ELSE. At Blackburn, he caught the eye because of his stellar DEFENSIVE performances. At the start of the season, he played his best games for United IN DEFENSE. Why on earth we decided to take him out of his comfort zone and throw him into midfield against natural midfielders is beyond me. You cannot expect someone who is more of a defender to immediately turn on the style in midfield. The reason why Jones is on a bad run of form is because he has gotten too used to midfield and now he is trying to re adapt to defense and for a young boy it does take time. However Jones can do his adapting in the off season. Cannot afford anymore mistakes at this point. Right now we need someone at RB who is stable and can bring this title home and that man is Rafael. end of.

  38. Costas says:

    There was one fear I had about both Smalling and Jones. That their versatility (and our lack of a fit right back) would turn them into new O’Sheas. Meaning that they’d be good at 2-3 different positions, but not great at one. I hope this isn’t what’s happening to Jones. It’s early yet, but it will be a long time before he plays as a central defender regulary. And like dannysoya said, that’s his best position.

    @TonyBee

    Everyone at ROM has speculated about what member of Max’s elite family Jones shagged. :lol:

  39. TheCANTONA says:

    some united fans made me feel ashamed. attacking our young players, written them off on their first year experience ffs! dont u spoiled bastard realize the value of this great club? its not just all about winning, glory (one reaso why i hated “GGMU” tagline), BUT it is also giving the young players a chance to grow up, to fullfill their potentials, to embrace the greatness of this club and it needs process, it takes time!!

  40. TheCANTONA says:

    @Costas:
    Everyone at ROM has speculated about what member of Max’s elite family Jones shagged.

    Hahahahaha! this Max fella has serious problem wtih jonesy boy, so that’s possibility, no?

  41. samuel - united WE stand says:

    Adryan is an outstanding younger talent, really technically gifted and perhaps would have been a massive improvement on some brazilians we’ve shipped into the club. He impressed in a couple of tournaments, catching the eye with his creativity and ability to score a goal. He’s another potential and would have needed time to be moulded into a premier league player.

    One thing i’ve noticed is, we seem to buy some players who do not fit into the system united currently employ and then we try to covert them into something they never will be or would be less effective at (veron, kleberson, anderson) baffles me.

  42. Ryandunny says:

    They are some major flaws in Max’s theory. Smalling, Rafael and Fabio have been injured a lot this season. Without Jones we would have had Valencia at right back a lot more of this season. And his performance against Norwich is a reminder to everyone that he is not a right back. We also would have had more problems in midfield, Jones had to play there at times in the first half of the season. So I very much doubt we’d have the league won and still be in the Champions League if we didn’t sign Jones.

    It’s all well and good going about a consistent team, but we’ve had a bucket load of injuries.

    Also, SAF may have doubted Evans ability to recover like he has this season. So there were several reasons why he was right to sign Jones.

    In a few years time Jones will be one of our most important players.

  43. Ryandunny says:

    Also fair play to Adryan. If he didn’t feel he’s ready then theres no point in joining. If he turns out to be a star let’s hope he’ll join when he is ready. :)

  44. CedarsDevil says:

    Who the fuck is he? Anyway, sign him up, bound to be better than that flop Jones

  45. Sandeep1878 says:

    in the last 24 hours i can fill in the blanks,

    Carrick – Evans – Berbatov – ———–

    Jonesy is the answer..;)

    Thank fuck..

    Fans have gone mental, well few of them anyway :)

    sometimes they forget he is 19 :P or 20…

    Good night reds

    United – 20 – come hell or high water

  46. MG says:

  47. Sandeep1878 says:

    Cedars,

    how are you my friend?

    we cant sell flop Jonesy now…who will buy him? Derby? Chartlon? Southhampton?

    well,

    3-4 years down the road, when he is having those elite strikers in his pocket and making those bombarding runs by twisting one defender after the other to finally screw the goalie,

    then we can think of selling him…may be to the likes of Wolves, Wigan, blackpool etc..

    ;)

    Good night buddy

    Good night ROM

    Night Sandy

  49. Lee Martins Winner says:

    I just want to say one thing re “some” united fans……… please take this as its ment.

    We have NO god given right to win any game, We were poor last night fact, but to read some comments made on various sites from “fans” saying SAF is clueless and giggs is past and should retire sickens me to my core.

    Passion is fine, disapointment at losing is how it should be, but to go off on a ridiculous rant aimed at true United legends is simply crude and the act of a plastic.

    So if you are one of these people, please fuck off and support a club with no history, no class and no morals. Just like you. I know of a team starting with M where you will fit right in,,,,,,

    on topic.

    We will be linked with another 1000 players this summer…. next

  50. CedarsDevil says:

    Right, non football but I thought I would share it…….

    You see I am not one for going to malls, far from it. Seeing that I am travelling on Saturday I had no choice but to make the trip to a near by mall to buy some things that I need…

    BLOODY HELL, what have I been missing! A collection of the hottest babes all gathered under one roof, I was just spinning on my two feet, left, right, up, down I just did not know where to look anymore. Fuck the shopping, I needed a breather, sat down in a coffee shop for a hot one, that was no help at all, the caffeine only served to pump me up even more. I decided to spare my heart and cut my losses so I left….Will get back there in the morning when its quiet and I can focus on my shopping!

  51. samuel - united WE stand says:

    I don’t get why people are upset when others do not rate a player. Football has and always be a matter of opinion, why the aggro?.

    Let’s be honest, jones has been inept for months now. I’ve said he lacks experience which brings added composure and awareness, he continues to be moved around like a dog smelling of Shit which again affects his development. He is and was bought as a center half, his surging runs forward has made people believe he is the outstanding box to box midfield player, he certainly will never be that because you require certain attributes to occupy and excel in that position. Jones enthusiasm and willingness for the games means he doesn’t mind but in the long run, he needs a fixed rigid position which is centre half. He needs to work on all facets of his game to improve and i’m sure he will want to but there are no definite guarantees that he will definitely turn out to be a great player. Step by step is how you climb a ladder.

    The fact he’s played more games than expected has brought its added pressure. United is a club in which you need to be consistent throughout and jones like many is learning that now.

  52. CedarsDevil says:

    Sammy Sam Samuel

    There is a huge difference between how we rate players and being totally obsessed with hating them my friend

  53. samuel - united WE stand says:

    When adryan feels he’s ready, who will bet against him running out at camp nou or the santiago bernabeu?

  54. MG says:

    Cedars

    :lol:

    MG

    He no turn United down no?

    :lol:

  55. James21 says:

    FFS Is it sill going on about Jones?

    Deary me and the essays are repeating themselves.

    I blame Cedars and MG personally.

  56. samuel - united WE stand says:

    Cedars – if it’s hating a player for the sake of hating then i disagree with that mentality. However, we all analyse differently and probably should welcome different views but fair point.

  57. samuel - united WE stand says:

    I can’t blame myself for knowing how to construct words well can i now..

  58. CedarsDevil says:

    I blame the Syrian economy

  59. James21 says:

    Sam
    but this Max doesn’t even want to give him a chance. Its the injuries that have unsettled us and the constant changing that SAF has had no choice but to do. How the hell can it all be down to Phil Jones?
    You make points and they are dicussed but this guy hates Jones like a Shitty or Dipper hates Utd, he won’t even give him chance to settle which is utter madness. If Phil Jones doesn’t cut it at Utd then thats life and we move on and wish him all the best.

  60. MG says:

    I blame women, they decided to give there husbands a chance in plumbing when they really needed men like James.

    :lol:

  61. TheCANTONA says:

    so its ok to slagging our young players in their first season? FUCK me! i think i supports Man United FC, a club always willing give a chance and time to their young players NOT some plastic clubs with no history and morality..

  62. CedarsDevil says:

    MG / James

    Check out the post made at 13:33 on the Gaitan thread……….. I have my doubts

  63. TheCANTONA says:

    *slagging and writting them off in their fisrt season*

  64. Giggs12Gerrard0 says:

    I am fuming with our glory hunting fan base.

    I must be thick as I just looked at the table its says we are top.

    I do agree with Samuel on the debate of being able to have a pop when required.

    The difference with max though saying things would be different had we not signed Jones……how exactly we are top of the league? Europe is not an option were not good enough and have not been since 09.

    Last night we were wank it happens but fuck me reading the some posts in the aftermath is fucking unreal.

    First time we had been beaten in the league since Jan 4th.

    We win game after game the blog is dead we lose and all of a sudden. 600 posts on a thread and SAF and Giggs are both shite.

    I have said it for a while now we are spoilt Bastards and as such we have become unrealistic. Stop bitching and support the fucking team fuck me imagine being a fucking Bolton fan.

  65. MG says:

    Imagine being a Wolves fan!

    Imagine being Terry Connor!

    :lol:

  66. CedarsDevil says:

    Giggs12

    I hear you mate, its always been the case, you hit the nail on the head, we are spoiled bastards…..

    Wonder how many of these plastic twats would have hung around in the 80′s

  67. James21 says:

    Terry Conner? Didn’t he do Name that Tune?

  68. CedarsDevil says:

    I’ll name it in 2

  69. Lee Martins Winner says:

    ive sad the same a little earlier giggs 12. It makes my blood boil, i have less respect for these so called fans of ours than i do even the most blind dipper.

    Jones is a very good talent, with a bright future. He WILL learn and he WILL improve. a defenders best years tend to be around 26 – 32. this is where they can use thier expeience while still having the physical ability.

    I remember a young rio at west ham, always going on a mazy run and leaving his def exposed. He tuened out to be a shit player eh!

  70. James21 says:

    Cedars
    I saw that post. smartalex certainly wouldn’t have let sachu get to him he was far too smart. Also the ‘Cedars my dear friend’ bit didn’t sound right. Noticed Iced Ink also made an appearance last night.

  71. samuel - united WE stand says:

    james21 – i agree with you, it certainly isn’t down to jones. Football is a team game and if we’ve encountered problems this season then it’s mostly down to injuries to key players, enforced rotation e.t.c.

    Jones was never the finished and when bought, he needed time blend into the squad. like i’ve posted many times, moving him around is not helping his development, he still needs to gather experience and then composure and discipline will come. You can’t plant a seed and expect to reap the rewards instantly, it takes nurturing and patience but on other hand, it still doesn’t guarantee a player becoming who we hope he would be but you have to take risks and jones is an example of that. I disagree with people saying we should dispatch him even thought admittedly i’ve been critical of some players and casting doubts but that’s nothing to do with me wanting them to fail but a burgeoning desire for them to succeed and perhaps eclipse expectations, it obviously brings out that harsh straightforward side in me but hey sometimes we have to be patient with players (that have the attributes or potential).

  72. cantonas collar says:

    It sounds like these were exactly what he said ‘talks’ probably just the slightest of enquiry but fair play to the lad for admitting he isnt ready.

    I think jones will be fine eventually given time and will settle into CB alongside smalling long terrm.

    Talking of brazilian midfielders I am worried for ando this summer he has been here a while now and hasnt made his mark. It was widely accepted that this season was nani’s make or break and ando jooined at the same time. I think he has bags of talent and can really be a top player but im wondering if he will make it that far.

    Any thoughts ROMers?

  73. CedarsDevil says:

    James

    A variety of other easy clues, the word ‘guys’ which the real smartalex never used, then words with capital letters half way through sentences…………. Far to easy

  74. Giggs12Gerrard0 says:

    Lee Martin

    Exactly mate Jones will be a united great I’m sure of it, he is only 19 and started fantastically well. He is the victim of his own success as he has been relatively poor since the turn of the year.

    We are a month away from potentially wrapping up our 20 title. We are five points clear yet reading our fans views you would think Dave Sexton is still in charge or under the doc in the second division.

  75. Mikekelly12 says:

    Cedars
    You never fail to make me chuckle with your 1 and 2 liners. Funny.
    Giggs12 and James have you been spit roasting mrs max?

  76. James21 says:

    Sam
    We all have the same desire for players to succeed. I wanted Gibson to succeed at Utd and the main reason I didn’t join the witch hunt. Nani winds me up because I know he’s a Good player but he could be world cvlass. Any Utd fan should know that Jones is work in progress and as you rightly state he was never the finished article, not many are at 19.

  77. James21 says:

    *Class* sorry Tits for fingers strike again.

  78. wayne says:

    Playing regular for Utd at 19 is a remarkable achievement he’s been playing all over the place probably mentally drained its his first fucking year at the biggest club in the world and some fans are already slagging him off and want him sold jesus
    I think most of us assume fans coming onto a Utd blog have played some football know a little about football and are Utd fans but that’s not true some are just Fuckwits

  79. James21 says:

    Viva MG. I’m pretty good with old boilers. ;)

  80. Lee Martins Winner says:

    If jones gets 100 ingerland caps, we win 10 more leagues with him as captian, these plastics will be the first to wear the “Jones = Legend” t-shirts.

    On to the villa game, we will be better, we will be at home, pushing hard for 20

  81. CedarsDevil says:

    wayne

    You mirror my thoughts exactly mate.

  82. MG says:

    James :lol:

    Old boilers, mature no?

    :lol:

    Terry Wogan :lol:

  83. James21 says:

    M19ke
    No not me mate I think it was Kanchelskis and Giggs.
    Everyone I know who goes to the Lakes says it pissed down all week. Wouldn’t botherme I’d stay in the pub :D

  84. MG says:

    It’s a shame when a genuine talent has been playing full tilt way past his expectations is being treated by his own.

    Would it have to take for him to leave to appreciate him?

    Yes and probably a 30 million player that just sounds good instead in football manager

    Fucking hell United the whole foundation of the club is based on youth.

    Without it this club has no definition.

    19

  85. Giggs12Gerrard0 says:

    James / mike

    I was just pissing myself at James’s post. Imagine the real Giggs and Kanchelskis roaming the land smashing the wives of rommers as a result of a shit post.

    I’m on my 9th pint of blackbird ale!

    He’s getting drunk again!

    :lol:

  88. CedarsDevil says:

    9 pints? I think Mike is not even warmed up yet

  89. Giggs12Gerrard0 says:

    Fucking teachers and their 43 weeks holiday a year. I hope that blackbird ale gives you the shits.

  90. James21 says:

    Giggs :D
    Your namesake would cos he shags who he wants.

    M19ke
    Have you had a chaser with each pint?

  91. samuel - united WE stand says:

    James21 – i agree. one step at a time, we all hope he’ll come good. Sometime some of us want to push players to become stars as quickly possible but that won’t always work like that with every player…..

  92. Jack says:

    Back on topic.

    Is this Brazillian hoping that by saying he turned down United that the rest of the Prem are gonna think he’s the next Messi and come running after him.
    What probably nearer the truth is that United turned him down

    Adryan for those who haven’t seen him play is a lot like Alexis Sanchez just maybe not as quick. The boy is very good for his age and to confirm it, he actually wears the #10 jersey for the Brazil U-17 team. Definately wouldn’t be a bad signing.
    Fingers crossed Jones dosen’t play again this season, he’s already got 3 own goals to his name. What a waste of 16mil!! 20years old or not, Im yet to see ANY promise at all! I mean Hell: Alaba, Wilshere, Pogba, Gotze, Eriksen, Neymar, Tello are all about the same age, but we ALREADY know they the real deal, stop hunting for excuses for Jones. DDG, Smalling, Pogba n Welbz are the future not Phil.

    Opinions are opinions but I think that is a terrible post sorry completely disagree.

    SAF rates Jones very highly, the poor lad is being played in so many positions due to his versatility.

    Plus I don’t know half of the names you dropped so we don’t know they are the real deal at all.

    I like how you claimed pogba who has made just 1 prem lge appearance can be closer to a the finished article than Jones.

    @giggs12

    I dont agree that is opinion mate I think Jones’ potential is fact not opinion. Of all the things there may be a question mark for him his raw talent isnt one. It is there for all to see.

    Neymar- Santos, Brazil 1st XI
    Tello – Barça

    My View on Jones;

    Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness- hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery, we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness.

  121. CedarsDevil says:

    Diablored

    For someone so well informed about the game all over the globe it seems and can draw up a list of players in a second, your assessment of Jones is quite daft and may be you have spent all this time following the wrong sport.

    Jones turned 20 two months ago, he has been hit with injuries, played in three or four different positions by the boss. Did you see his performances during the first half of the season? If you cannot see the raw talent the kid has then I am sorry (may be not) but as I advised earlier change sports and quick because when it comes to football, it seems you are clueless

  122. King Eric says:

    Neymar is a little fucking fag. ”Cussing” ”apb”. What the fuck is that shit? Pogba the real deal after ONE game but Jones has played how many games? This scapegoating is fucking horrible, kneejerk and wreaks of plastic.

    See Commoli has fucked off. Ha.

    How comes that thug cunt Ivanovic lost his appeal but didn’t get an extra game added on a la Rio?

    Sorry but this abuse of Jones has got me fucking seething. All those names DiabloRed quoted are all fucking FIFA cunts I dare say. Good players but all attacking players.

    Im saying at this crucial time of the season, for the sake of progress, may he stay on the bench where he belongs, quite honestly, can’t trust him in ANY position on the pitch!
    P.S Neymar, is the best thing since CR7 and Messi, definatly dosen’t qualify to be a fag. Totally inspired that kid!

    @TheCANTONA at 21:36

    Yeah mate. It’s not just Jones. De Gea and Young have also had their harsh critics in here. Less than a year in the club and they are already making judgments on whether they will ever be good enough for United. Dear me.

    I think it was Roy Keane (before he late his bitterness get the best of him) that said back in 02 that new players shouldn’t get the blame when a season goes wrong. And that was in defence of experienced players like Blanc and Veron. It should apply even more to Phil Jones.

  138. Phil Jones shagged Max's mum! says:

    Phil Jones will master his trade within 2/3 years. Maxine will come on here and still complain about him. The truth is, Maxine’s thong is riding into the unknown. So I can see the why she is taking it out on Jones. Must be a terrible affliction. Loosen it a bit honey.

    Oh and willie told me to thank you for the mention. He’ll be back.

  142. NBI Red Onion says:

    I don’t see Pogba’s issue.

    I can understand he was pissed seeing young guys from outside like Jones play in his CM position when he was not even CM and seeing them bigged up as future captain while he was looked over. But he has also been reassured he has a future and seen Welbeck, Clev, Rafael from youth team get their chance. Also had he signed maybe SAF would have played him instead of experimenting with Jones who is not remotely at the same level in MF.

    If its money I can’t accept that, he would make lots of money if he progressed at United and SAF is clearly showing him he considers him the future. Jones will not be playing in his spot next season if Pogba signs. It should be him and Scholes / Cleverly / Carrick. I am sure he has been told that, he will have a spot, he just needs to sign. Also at Juventus there is no guarantee he will start.

  143. CedarsDevil says:

    Costas

    I am sure there will be other opportunities, with my mum living on the island permanently now I will be visiting quite frequently….

    Sweet dreams MG

  144. NBI Red Onion says:

    I don’t rate Jones at all on present form, Smalling and Rafael and Evans are better in defence and other players better in MF. However, he does not pick himself, it is SAF who picks him and therefore the manager is the one who people should look at if they are not happy with team selection not the guy who gets selected. SAF picks Jones for whatever reason ahead of Rafael, Smalling. Park and Pogba. I wouldn’t, I would have played Smalling and Rafa ahead of him at RB or defence always, but I am not one of the world’s best managers.

  145. WeAreUnitedd says:

    why the hell pople slating JONES????? I don’t get it?

    he did nothing wrong last night, the season started well for him , and we all know he will be a CB in the future, you can bet on it, He’s only what 19-20???

    Vidic will pplay maybe 1-2 seasons and will be sold, Rio getting old though I love the guy (no homo) hope he alwas stays fit,

    what’s left??? Only Evans? nonono, This is ManUtd! .

    Smalling and Jones are the future among Evans, also do you really think we won’t make additions if those 2 don’t make it? cmon guys. there’s always something.

    I myself trust on those two players, they just need to be played on their CB place.

    don’t sweat about it. WE ARE UNITED.

  150. NBI Red Onion says:

    Vidic is only 30. He has 3/4 more seasons in him at least injury aside. Rio 1/2. Vidic relies less on pace than Rio did.

    Re CD Evans has staked his claim as heir to that world class pairing, one of the greatest United has ever had, and after him I loved Smalling, he had an amazing debut and has been pure class for the most part and has pace to complement Evans and Vidic’s positioning. However, we need an O’Shea and Wes as back up. Jones may do the job, who knows, but one more back up CD is needed.

    What is happening to De laet? I was hoping to see him back at OT. What I saw of him the kid had real potential. Fryers has buggered off the horizon, I heard he has the same signing reluctance as Pogba. Otherwise I had hopes for him as a defender. The uncertainty re these kids signing is disorientating.

  152. Keane16 says:

    Anyone? What position did Anderson play for Porto? That’s right googlers left sided attacking midfield/ or just off the centre forward, the bloke was considered one of the best young players in the world, so united signed him and turned him into or tried to turn him into a box to box midfielder, look at nani more productive on the right but played on the left uniteds player of the season last year when Valencia was injured. Phil jones is not a full back nor midfielder, but he is twice the centre half that Evans is! Is it the coaching staff or the manager that make these fucking glaring mistakes it’s almost as bad as pairing carrick with giggs in the engine room who makes these calls????

  153. Clint-Iamyourpapii says:

    devil310 is a liverpool fan? :lol:

  154. Clint-Iamyourpapii says:

    Keane16

    I believe You should make those changes you seek pal !
    You’ve got a great eye for talent too.

    I agree Anderson should play left side or behind the strikers. That way he doesn’t need to become a complete midfielder or learn how to influence the game from the middle. Great suggestion pal, I agree with the Nani part too, left to right is a big fucking difference especially when he’s got “such a crap left foot”. You got some great reading of the game buddy.

    Also I agree, Jones is the 3rd best centre back at United ahead of Evans, a 24 year old established regular who is only just ahead of that right back Smalling. He’s not twice the player but twice the man Evans is. I hear his dick is larger than Evra as a person….top notch is our Jones, unproven at Centre back but yes twice the player, clearly evident from the 2 games he’s played there.

    Our Coaching team is piss poor aswell, they need their heads chopping ! You are spot on again.
    Carrick and Giggs are so shit together, how on earth did we beat Chelsea 3 times in a row last year, get to the CL final and win the premier league with those two clueless bums partnered together !
    Its just pure luck Giggs scored against Norwich and set up Hernandez at Chelsea. They are awful !

    Who makes these calls? Fergie isn’t it ?
    Sack the nutter, he’s lost his Skittles ! That Phelan is holding us back he is.
    Plus that Rene I hear is Dutch, he must like his Marijuana.

    Bring in Keane16,
    He’s the manager and coach our team is crying out for, with his proven past record of producing great players and being a tactical mastermind, we’ll win the 21st and 22nd league titles within 2012 We Will.

    Get those Nutty Snickers out of United now !

    If you don’t agree with me, go chew on Samosa’s, We (Me + Keane16) have the coaching teams cards marked, We Do !

    I don’t understand how a RB is to be blamed for us losing some games. The last I reckoned, many of the goals we conceded came from the left.

  169. Sandeep1878 says:

    Rene Meulensteen: “The manager wanted to see Hazard. That shows that he thinks he’s an interesting player. We’ve spoken a lot about him.”

    “It’s important for a club to keep refreshing the squad. Hazard is a special talent, but concluding these things always takes a while. For example, we were tracking David De Gea for a long time before we signed him.

    “Ferguson wants to know the player’s character, and because of that he makes personal trips to watch them. Hazard is the main man at Lille and so Ferguson wanted to see if that had had an influence on him.”

    It goes back to the good old scapegoat mentality mate. Somebeody has to be blamed. Berbatov is no longer around, Carrick and Evans are playing well, so the next in line is Jones. 2-5 bad matches and immediately the played is accused of not bring United quality. One thing’s for sure. We won’t have to look hard when Fergie retires. Just replace him with Max or any of the other know it alls in here.

  179. greg says:

    Jones is not a united player what dose he bring to the side? We have a great centre back in Smalling who shows Jones up when it comes to ability, the fact the lad has heart and puts his head where others wont dose not warrant a place at united, if you put me in a united shirt id put every thing i had in the way sign me up Fergie? i thought not we are dwelling on players that are no longer good enough!

    Giggs is a liability now days i do not for one second question the ability this guy has had and what he has done for our team but he cannot perform at the highest standard any more.

    The Pogba situation is idiotic to say the least if he is as good as we think give the lad what he wants he will save us 30 mill in the transfer market if he is.

    For me it is no coincidence that Tony has been playing as well as he has with Rafa behind him he compliments him well they are both in the form of there lives but fergie chooses to drop raffa for a guy (Jones) who is supposed to be a centre back but cant get in there so we put him centre mid but hes not good enough there so we put him right back and we lose joke

    Im not a doom and gloom fan i think that for our side which is in no doubt in transition to be top of the league is a amazing feat no one but us could do that.

    I cannot wait for 20 to come and it will
