I'm not sure about Zidane but agree that their squad is not as bad as some make out, their defence needs some work but midfield and up front they have plenty of talent that if they get the right person in they could challenge again next season.

Martial Sanchez Rashford is definitely a top 4 front three. As long as the ball is played on the deck. Mourinho just wanted to smash it long to Lukaku, but obviously Lukaku has the first touch of a donkey. Agree that with the right manager they'll improve. Hopefully they'll just get one of their ex-players.

zidane is an ideal mentor for pogba...french, similar player, similar skill set, enough charisma to get pogba to work. if i were woodward, id get him in just for that reason.

United have already improved just by getting rid of Mou without even kicking a ball.
Nobody managing them is better than what they were at.

Very important that they get the next appointment right, I mean wrong.....
Well I mean right....you know what I mean,

Their centre backs are awful, as are all their options at right back. in fact Shaw is the only half decent defender they have. The rest are average at best. If it wasnt for the keeper they would be 4th from bottom, never mind 4th from top.
They need at least 3 defenders and with only a caretaker in charge they wont sign anyone significant in Jan.
Top 4 a huge ask for any caretaker manager who takes charge.

Lindelof is actually decent, but has had all confidence coached out of him (in combination with a poor start and being slate by the press). He's always ace for Sweden. I think the French lad is alright as well, but Mou's murdered him.

It only takes one decent center half to come in and make the defence solid. Looks at VVD at the dippers.

The biggest thing I think for the rags will be a possible rejuvenation of Pogba.

You're stretching it there Mase, VVD is riding the wave at the moment.
