Yes son but I think the biggest concern will be the financial standing of the club.
I do hope I'm wrong but the club is standing on a cliff edge at the moment.

This fat cr*p Luke Shaw is definitely not good enough. He represents Man United's decline perfectly. A mediocre player who barely plays and is stealing a living at the club since 2014, yet there are Man United fans who rate this clown

Tough times for united. Never followed the PL matches so decided to watch the final only to be bitterly disappointed with the managers tactics as well as the players crappy performance.
Need a complete removal of all the crap players at united who are overally paid jokers.
Surely academy or under 19 players have more passion than the current clowns playing for united.

You would take Casemiro over Rice and look how that turned out?
The thing is I don’t understand what the issue is with Rice’s price tag when you’ve signed an over the hill Casemiro for £60-70m.

We got Ugarte as the cover for Casimero in the long run.
Like I said. I'd take Gravenberch or Alexis Macc Allister over Rice far better players.

Man Utd close to signing Wolves' Cunha
Matheus Cunha's transfer to Manchester United is at an advanced stage as the Wolves forward nears a £62.5m move to Old Trafford.
BBC Sport understands United will be required to pay the full fee for the Brazil attacker in three instalments, during a two-year period.
The two parties are closing in on a total agreement over personal terms, with sources indicating a deal over the forward's package is now a formality.
Wolves are yet to receive a formal approach, but that is expected in the coming days.
Cunha's release clause is worth £62.5m, meaning there is no requirement for lengthy club-to-club negotiations - provided United meet the specific terms of the buy-out.
Well-placed sources have indicated that they will be required to pay the full amount by the end of the 2026-27 campaign.
The first £20.8m will be paid upon purchase and the second instalment at the end of next season, with the final amount due in the summer of 2027.
Cunha has made 92 appearances since arriving at Wolves, initially on loan, from Atletico Madrid in January 2023, scoring 33 goals for the club.
The 25-year-old almost certainly played his last game for Wolves in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Brentford and has since taken to social media to post a message to supporters.
He wrote: "Individually it was the best season of my life. All of this was only possible because of all the dedication and love I have for this club.
"I became the Brazilian with the most goals in a Premier League season along with Roberto Firmino and Gabriel Martinelli.
"I made mistakes and got things right, but always because I lived this club so much. All I ever wanted was to do the impossible for Wolves. Another one is over. And thank you for all the affection."

United will do OK next season. They need to back this manager.
We have money to spend after sales, so we need to get 5 or 6 to go into the first eleven.
Amorim did this at Sporting first season. 20 players left in the summer, and he built from there.
You dont win any games in the prem if you start every game with 10 men (hojlund)
You cant play every game twice a week like that- it will kill you- and then a dodgy keeper on top.
Onana and Rasmus replaced by someone competent is 20 points more next season, straight off the bat.
Add in Cunha a wing back and a midfielder, and one game a week, we have to be pushing for top 4.
Money shouldnt be an issue as we will make big money on the following
Rashford 40
Anthony 35
Sancho 25
Garnacho 65
Malacia 10
Onana 30 (saudi)
That is 200m and then we don't need to replace Lindlof Evans and Eriksen, as we need a smaller squad with no Europe (so thats 25m in wages saved from them too)
WE might be able to shift on Rasmus, Maguire Casemiro Mainoo Bruno Mount Shaw depending on what the manager wants also.
Its over to ineos to back the manager.
I for one am happy he has come in and STUCK to what he wants to do, and if that has shown up certain players so be it.
We wanted ten hag to play ajax football, and he didnt do it and adapted to the players short term but could never go back.
Ineos needs to make sure this is different.
I am not judging amorim until the end of next season and even then the target should be to allow the big turnover in playing staff to bed in, and be in the top 4 if we make a table for the last 20 games of the season.

I don’t think United should give up on Amorim yet. But think so far Amorim has been one of the worst managers I’ve seen over a season. Tactically rubbish and stubborn. I’m not sure his system will even work even if he gets his player. Nearly every player got worse. I’ve never seen a manager so unadaptable.
Even Europa league final. It was amorims fault. Brought the subs on far too late, sent in the wrong team. I can’t believe he waited 70 mins to do something. Had he even done it at half time I think the result would have been different.
Spurs adapted in the final playing an unusual style for them to cover for injuries to their attack. And it worked.
Worse still spurs can blame injuries for this season. Man United can’t, they didn’t have anywhere near the amount of injuries nearly everyone was fit.
I even think sending away rashford, Anthony, now Garnacho is a bit of a mistake. They are better than the likes of Hojlund, Mount etc.
And because of this disaster season, recruitment will be harder too.
Kind of feel it’s the situation where he might be the right manager just the wrong time. I don’t think he’s the best guy to get rid of the deadwood in the squad, get the best of a bad bunch and get the club to get a stage where someone can actually build. Ironically for all the hate ole did that somewhat. Ten Haag when ahead and ruined the squad spending a fortune. All that damage has to be undone now.
I’d give him time, but it feels like the worst situation and extremely high risk to have a manager like Amorim come in.

Now lost to ASEAN all stars. Crazy stuff.
I don’t see how the board make that leap of faith backing Amorim fully in the transfer market with results like this. Too much of a risk especially when they are reeling from the signings of previous regime. And they will have to pay far above the proper price and higher wages to attract good players with no European football. And clearly Amorim can not succeed with these current players, he’s made that clear already.
If Amorim goes surely it’s going to be an experienced manager coming in with little financial backing to stabilise. They can’t afford another risk.

Man Utd booed off after defeat in Malaysia
Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim believes it will do his players good to leave Kuala Lumpur with the sound of boos ringing in their ears after a 1-0 loss to ASEAN All-Stars.
After ending a desperate Premier League campaign with a victory over Aston Villa on Sunday, the club flew 6,600 miles to Malaysia only to find there was no respite from their troubles.
Less than 24 hours after Wolves striker Matheus Cunha was cleared to have a medical before completing a £62.5m move to Old Trafford, United's old goalscoring failings struck again in the first match of the post-season tour to Asia.
In temperatures of more than 30 degrees and high humidity, Amorim's side failed to take a succession of chances despite regular substitutions which meant they ended up using 25 outfield players.
A second-half goal from Myanmar winger Maung Maung Lwin was enough to give a South East Asia XI victory in front of an official attendance of 72,550 at the Bukit Jalil Stadium, triggering boos from a substantial portion at the final whistle from fans who had paid up to £260 to watch United on their first visit to Malaysia since 2009.

Man Utd have turned Maung Maung Lwin into prime Maradona.
This team was assembled hastily with one training session too.
