Bye Captain Rooney!

Lukaku have medical next few days and will be joining their tour!

It will be better if Morata could join ...

I also hope the Morata deal is not really dead. Hoping RM will lower their expectations since Morata and James Rodriguez is considered surplus to their squad.

Actually if we could sign Morata then it will be great as Rooney will be going "home" Ibrahimovic high chances will not stay if stay he will likely to be back closer to 2nd half of the season ...

Tour news


Boss plan for the Keepers.

"The first match, Romero does not play,” Jose said. “We play David for 45 and the kid [Pereira] for 45.

"In the second match, David does not play. We play the kid for 45 and Romero for 45.

The third match against Man City, we don't play Joel. We will play David for 45 and Romero for 45."

GK News
 

IMO,the purchase of Everton's Lukaku was considered some time ago. Its not because of our failure to land Morata. Moreover, Rooney has been slated to be off-loaded in MU books for a long time overdue. The Everton switch for him will go ahead regardless of Morata deal. Its a business decision. Any way, we certainly have the pounds to buy more players of our choice than other clubs. Will not be surprised if two more players will come aboard in the coming month before closure of transfer windows. The more the better it is. Competition of first team placings will spur our players to perform better. It will be wonderful news to have more than enough coverage of all areas in the whole team, considering the games we will be playing in 2017-2018 season. Let's see what happens next.

Lukaku scoring from a tight angle.:thumbsup:

2 goals in 2 game for Lukaku while Rashford hit 3 first time they both play together and if the form carry on into the PL and CL think they can be a strike force just like Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke.
