S-Clarke Posted 10 May, 2016 Share Posted 10 May, 2016 We know first hand just what a snake MP is. New contract or not, he'd walk over broken glass to get the United job Yeah, this makes it even more odd though. He hasn't signed that new contract yet, lots of talk about it....but it was left with ''it's with the lawyers' and now he's spotted with his coaching staff and a Utd advisor. Hmmm. I really hope there's something in this, it could be a very fun summer if that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalkboy Posted 10 May, 2016 Share Posted 10 May, 2016 (edited) There are some nice little chats on the spurs forums, reminds me of how we felt when he was touting himself around at the end of his time here. A sweet little bit of karma may be on the way. Yes I know, I've been on a couple of Spurs forums myself to see what they are saying Would be delicious karma, butttttttt, you know who they will come after if he leaves...............

aintforever Posted 10 May, 2016 Share Posted 10 May, 2016 Looks like Jesus, yeah. Maybe it's just a manger to ex manager chat? Or does Fergie still have a 'proper' say at the higher echelons at Utd? He hasn't actually signed the deal he spoke about, which does make you wonder. I doesn't matter what deal he signed anyway, managers can sign whatever they want and still just quit.

S-Clarke Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 Schneiderlin's missed out on the French squad for the Euros - oops... I doubt it was even a thought in his head last summer, going to Utd could cost him his place at the Euro's - if anything, he probably assumed it would cement it. Based on his first half showing at WHU, I'm not surprised. He was a shadow of the player we had here, like a poor clone of him. When Fellani and Carrick are regular's in front of you then you know it's time. I reckon he'll move in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelman Posted 12 May, 2016 Share Posted 12 May, 2016 Really, I have little sympathy. Maybe that is the attitude of a jilted lover, but he made his choices and he has been diabolical in some games this season, not least the last one vs Wet Spam. But. It does get me thinking - is there really a difference playing for MUFC than SFC? You hear "expectation" being pulled out a lot. Well **** me, if that means they weren't giving 100% at SFC (as we have the same expectation of winning every match) then **** them. The pressure is different because of the expectation - is that really the case? You might have 75k booing you rather than 30k sighing and muttering under their breath.

ENSKIED Posted 13 May, 2016 Share Posted 13 May, 2016 No doubt those cynical among could see the MP 'connection' unfolding this way. Man U have him on their short-list [undoubtedly so] and wish to sound Mauricio out, so he meets with SAF secretly [supposedly], MP's agent sells the Scum newspaper an amazing exclusive, "nice little earner know wot a' meen guv"? The Scum duly arrive on cue, cameraman on hand as they would. Levy gets wind of the MP, SAF meeting as he was meant to, "know wot a' meen guv"? MP's agent awaiting such an outcome as he and MP smoke Gurkha Black Dragons and sip vintage Champagne in the Savoy, receives an immediate summons to an emergence meeting with Levy and members of the Spurs board, where MP's agent matter of factly informs Levy, as he offers him a Gurkha Black Dragon, Man U will pay his client a "basic" £6 mill per annum with massive bonuses to be added. Levy and the Spurs board with the Scum info in the public domain and the Spurs fans venting bile, combined with the looming financial implications of the New stadium and ECL football for the coming season, now could face losing MP unless they act and act right now they there and then agree to seriously up the ante in relation to MP's new contract and MP duly signs. He having had a free lunch and earned an extra £2 mill plus per year and a few extra bonuses under the "ole' counter wink, wink, know wot a'meen guv" virtue of a free lunch and a single phone call.

Crab Lungs Posted 13 May, 2016 Share Posted 13 May, 2016 Schneiderlin's role is markedly different at United. It's very limited. Collect the ball deep, pass it. He's not playing an enforcer role like he did for us and at times, has been left woefully exposed by his midfield partner (mostly Fellaini is guilty of that). He's still an absolutely class footballer utilised disgustingly by an absolute worm-headed moron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Duckhunter Posted 14 May, 2016 Share Posted 14 May, 2016 Were you saying that while he still played for us? He was a good player for us, but the " how can we ever replace him" & " a Morgan sized hole left in our midfield " type of posts have been OTT since he left . Good player for a Europa league side , squad player at champions league level imo . Throw his toys out of the pram because he couldn't go to Spurs ,there haven't been many in my 45 years of watching who've refused to play ( or not been in the right mind to play) , but he's one of them .

I think you are re-writing history here somewhat. He tweeted something in the heat of the moment when we turned down Spurs' offer for him, but I don't recall him ever refusing to play, and his attitude on the pitch was never less than excellent IMO. Fair enough if you don't rate him as highly as others do (did) but if you're going to criticise him then at least make sure its for something that actually happened.

No run in the starting eleven, different partners, no coherence in the team formation and Van Gaal clearly simply doesn't like/rate him. Think he'll move and reestablish himself at Arsenal or Spurs after a wasted year. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
