View from the Commentary box - Man Utd



It’s been another busy week both on and off the field for Manchester United. With a win at Man City but defeat in the league cup meant Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and the Manchester United management team were under pressure to bring in more players in the recent transfer window. A  sense of anger and frustration had descended on the fans in the stands.

Reports of Manchester United’s CEO Ed Woodward’s house being attacked by angry United fans shows how far the frustration had gone.

Ed Woodward in the fans eyes takes a lot of blame for Manchester United’s current position. But in this current transfer window he has delivered players to boost Ole Gunnar Solskjaer squad.



The marathon race to sign Bruno Fanandez ended in success and his quality shown against Wolves on his debut at Old Trafford last weekend gave the Old Trafford faithful hope that his move will be a success.

There are other areas of concern that Ed Woodward has tried to fix, last week he signed Odion Ighalo on loan for the rest of the season from Chinese football team Shanghi Shenhua.

The Nigerian international who played previously in English football for Watford between 2014 and 2017 scoring 39 goals in 99 appearances.
Is he the fox in the box goal scorer Manchester United are missing?? We will find out soon as United step up their late charge to gain a Champions league place for 2021.

Creating chances and converting them to goals have been Manchester United’s problem in 2019/20 season, with Bruno and Odion on board now Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be looking for a bigger return for the chances created.

With the winter break now up and running and no games for 2 weeks it will give the squad opportunity to rest some tired bodies, integrate the new players into the squad and look to reenergise for the run in as the battle for a Champions League place is still on.
