German U19s champions for the second time in a row.

This 1998s boys (Passlack, Pulisic, Burnic, Larsen and others) have won the U17s title twice in a row and now the U19s title as well. :frantic:

 

Final penalty:

 

 

Wow that's an incredible achievement for the youth team and to pull off the title wins twice in a row in both U17s and 19s is an incredible feat. Congrats for their hard work and hopefully they continue to impress to earn a spot in the first team!

In regards to Griezmann, I think him joining is a real possibility considering Simeone may be leaving Atletico due to his contract expiring and he will only stay if he stays. It'd be cool if we can add Morata and potentially Kroos since Carrick isn't getting any younger plus they are good fits. Hopefully we make it happen but firstly we need to win EL to confirm CL next year! Go United

Have a weird feeling Griezmann is using Utd as a bargaining chip to get a better contract. Just like Ramos did. Starting to get fed up with this saga....

If he isn't sure, he wants to come, drop him. Lots of other targets to go for.

Speaking of Man Utd

 

 

2 weeks before the most important match for Frankfurt in years. Very smart move. Couldn't wait until after that match and consequently the end of the season. :picard:

Unfortunately there is no medication against stupidity...

Feeling confident about the EL final today. There's no other manager that knows how to win when needed most other than Mourinho. I trust him to get his tactics spot on and attack from the get go. It's the trophy we are missing in our cabinet even though it's not the most sparkling trophy. My heart and prayers go to the victims of the Manchester bombings and hopefully they win it for them. Go United!

So far, so good. The team has been playing well in all competitions so far including their final match vs CP in the PL. it hasn't been the bestest of seasons but winning the Community Shield vs Leicester after last year's FA Cup win and English Cup win as well so overall although a disappointing PL campaign, a year where we win possibly 3 trophies if we finish off Ajax today which were up 2-0 is a good year in my books. Pogba' goal was a fluke sort of off Ajax' defender Sanchez and I missed Mkhitaryan' goal. We're on our way there.

Mourinho knows how to win big matches when it matters the most and he got his tactics spot on yet again. Rested key players in our final PL match so we can have them all fresh and mentally prepared for the match. Pogba said it best. They did it for those who died and all of us as United fans. Scored a big goal that got us going on the front foot. Mkhitaryan got one off a corner which Smalling headed down cleverly for Mickey who stretched his leg up as high as he could to put it away. It's a big trophy win for the city just couple days after a tragic event and us as United fans. Kudos to Mourinho for getting the team far more prepared for this. His defensive scheme was on point and pressed well on the counter. Now we need to get players who are capable of playing a much faster, up tempo play as those type of players are crucial for C/L success. Pogba and Mickey have the experience but the rest have very little to limited Champs League experience. That's the key if we want to build a team that can compete in both P/L,  C/L and other competitions as well. In Mourinho We Trust. For now time to enjoy this EL Final win! Wooohooo
