Watched it on his TV at home I'd imagine. Not even on the bench

Fred is proper knobhead, could had made a career here, instead he is making a career in changing tv channels.

Is Fred injured? Or has he just been frozen out?

As an aside I’m truly stunned Baconface has escaped any sort of part in all of this. The squad he left for Moyes was not good for ongoing progression and they are suffering now from the mismanagement started in the last year or so of his tenure


This.
Taggart's last season in charge was all about winning the league and stopping us, not creating a plan after he is gone. But you will never hear a word.


Quite right, and seeing all the ills in the world are blamed on City, the one thing we are responsible for is never recognised, namely making bacon delay his retirement for a year by winning the title he was meant to.

Frozen out. I'm sure Mourinho said a week ago that they can't play Fred until their defending improves. So he may as well get comfy on his sofa!

Maybe saying "it wasn't my choice to buy Fred" and is refusing to play him. Similar with Sanchez. Perhaps the boys up stairs did actually just buy those two to stop us getting them and it's pissed Mourinho off.

He wanted his legacy to look even greater. He wouldn't want someone matching him as he would look less special.

And yet when he finished the press was full of articles of the wonderful legacy of young players he had left for his successor, how they would be the basis of a successful team for years to come etc. Horrible arse-licking stuff.

This is spot on. He became obsessed with us and that's why he bought Van Persie. It was never a signing purple nose would have made in the past. That was all about winning the league one last time and bollox to those who were coming to take over.
He knew Moyes couldn't do it and that's why he championed him.

I think Rashford would had been similar to Sterling if he worked under Pep, instead of Maureen. The kid, as much as I hate to admit it, has huge huge potential to be world class, but under Maureen he regressed a bit, or better yet, stood still.

Also, I think he is actually a poacher, not a winger how he is used.

It might just be the games I've seen him in but every time I've watched him for the rags and England he's been awful. Gets the ball, runs back to his own goal, loses it/passes to Lingard and no one else.

Sterling had already won Golden Boy. Call me crazy, but I think Raza is just as good as Mbappe. Rashford isn't on there level and never will be.

Incredible info put out by an express journo on social media ........
Glazers at Utd ,
£18 million dividend paid to them last year , £56 million made from a share sale , £13 million executive salaries. Their 2005 take over organised by banker Ed Woodward has cost the club £1 billion and still £487 million in debt ........

Staggering !
Not really here
