As the post stated the dream is over, and I agree why would he want to leave 2 years into a project that is already bearing fruit, Spurs will win the EPL in the next 3 seasons and then RM will probably catch his eye

as much as I don't fancy him, it looks as though we've gone quiet regarding the manager which makes me think 'Hose A' will be our man next season, I hope not but if he restores some glory then I'll be the first to thank him

Spurs to win the league in 3 years - no way Jose
Deli Ali will be off to Barca, RM or Citeeh to replace Toure , Kane's goals will dry up, danny W will be injured, they had their chance this year lol

Now as much as I hate man United I have to say Rooney has been playing well of late albeit in midfield.

In the semi final he was man of the match for me.

Not being English so I don't really care but id take him as a midfielder.

Rooney is finished as a striker but has been playing well in that midfield role so much so, if he is to play in that useless England managers staring eleven then let it be instead of Henderson, Milner of Adam Banana!

I used to really rate milner, but he is past it too, which is a shame as he could have been something special.

Im just glad he took Shrek's youngest goal scorer record.

Milner is a player playing on his past rep, he has a good engine but no end product, his dead ***** are embarrassing.

Id say miler is past it, and I used to really rate him.

What makes me really happy is that of all the player teams have bought off us in the recent past, none of them have ever lived up to their days at Leeds.

Ferdinand was scoring loads of goals at leeds, and keeping clean sheets, at united scored one goal IIRC.

Smith, broke his leg after a season and never did anything since, etc etc etc./..

It feels wrong, but I'm hoping for a Man U win so Saints don't have to qualify for Europe.

Check out all the bitters, especially the sheep *******, Ferdinand was the best centre half in the world for a couple of seasons whilst at United and you conveniently forgot about king Eric

Fatty, you're such a hoot, now run along like a good boy and find some of your own fans to talk to, or are they all on other teams forums as well

Martial, Rashford, Shaw, De Gae and Fosu Mensah who has big potential .... Obviously that isn't going to happen but you asked the question.

The rest arn't good enough to be Manchester United players, how many of the rest would have made past Manchester United teams ? Rooney is now too slow, he's always had a clumsy first touch, he may well give the odd good pass against weaker opposition but with less time and space against better opposition he'll get shown up and will constantly lose or give away possession.

Mata's days will probably be numbered under Mourhino as he never really rated him anyway hence why he sold him, Herrera is average, Carrick will probably leave, Fellaini is never a United player in a million years, Schweinsteiger was well past his best when we signed him, Schneiderlin probably not United standard. Not been convinced one bit by Memphis under LVG, worth giving him a try under Mourhino to see if that lifts his mood.

The defence, Rojo is never a United standard player, Chris Smalling has gone backwards and his distribution can be poor, Darmian is never United standard, Phil Jones again is never United standard, out of the whole defence Luke Shaw is the only one who has any real class along with De Gae just behind them.

Up front, Rashford and Martial are the future. Never rated Lingard, the shot he had in the final yesterday, if he tried that 20 times 19 of them would probably end up in the crowd as i've seen him do that plenty of times, he got it right on the big occasion but that was deffo a one off great finish. Valencia would make a good squad player, the same for Ashley Young.

Probably missed a few but you get the gist of it.

That is your standard
