I think he is saying that those players make up around half of our usual match day squads (when fit and not sunning it in Dubai and if they can be arsed). That we will have to make a fair few signings or promotions from the academy, to make up for the lack of depth which will now be in the squad.

Yeah you’re right, I didn’t understand what he meant, but he’s right.

Regardless, I still don’t think it’s going to feel that big of a change in reality. Let’s see how we look come the start of the season .

This. He won't go. If his options are staying at United and picking up a wage for doing nothing or going to a club where he'll have to get on a pitch to do nothing he'll pick the former every time.

Horrible attitude. No surprise it's all gone downhill. Only himself to blame.

Reckon a fair portion of the blame could be laid at the door of the racists who wrote him off when he was still good. Chances are he’d still be firing on all fronts if they hadn’t worn him down, but this is England and things will never change.

Yeah it's definitely racists who wore him down. Because all the unhappy United fans who called him out for him strolling round the pitch with a face like a slapped arse were definitely white. Not a single black fan thought he was a lazy #@&%!.

Same reason Maguire only gets abuse off black fans. Damn these racists.

Maguire gets abuse because he’s shit.
Martial got abused initially for more nefarious reasons. It’s so obvious and if you deny it you’re one of them. The reality is, some men of a certain background did not want Martial to succeed here. They were jubilant when he actually did succumb to the pressure. The day Martial stopped performing was the day fascism won afaic.

Losing Hughes, Ince and Kanchelksis felt like 10 players though I'd still fancy the 3 of them to beat that lot.

You call people who don’t agree with your bullshit opinion racist. If you actually cared about racism in football, and on a wider scale, you wouldn’t make such flippant remarks that are damaging to people who do experience racism. But you don’t. So I’ll say it again: £#%&! you.

Don’t trivialise racism. Martial has his detractors, and while a portion of any fan base can be knuckledragging racists that isn’t the reason why United fans called him out.

No I don’t like Maguire because he’s shit. I’m not sure what’s so hard for you to understand.

Genuinely astounded that I’ve been dismissed and spoken to in this way.

“£#%&! you” because I’m speaking out against racism. You should be ashamed.

£#%&! you. You’re not speaking out against racism. You’re a troll and racism in your eyes is something to be made into a wum.

Enjoy your weekend. I won’t make the mistake of engaging with you again.
