It'll give us more emergency exits, which is the main obstacle in terms of raising the capacity as far as I know

The thing I'm the most worried about regarding us sharing Wembley with Spurs is how well the pitch will hold up when you take into account that there will be played 36 league matches, many cup games, both domestically and in Europe + international fixtures over the course of a season. I mean, how will the pitch look when we enter January 2018?

I can understand why people are hesitant towards the design, but in my opinion, it's completely crucial for the atmosphere that the stadium doesn't look like your average Wembley, Emirates, Etihad or even the soulless toilet seat that will be the new White Hart Lane. It's made for football, it needs to be ugly, it needs to intimidate the opposition, it needs to create a vibe that is on the other scale of everything connected with corporate stuff. There will be a lot of corporate seating within the stadium, but with a design like this, that doesn't have to matter. The Bridge today is like a library, but I want it to be a place known for its loud crowd and intimidating atmosphere, and this looks to me like a brilliant start. If we'd gone for a design similar to what Spurs is building, then I think our chances of achieving that would suffer greatly. Lastly, I'd have to say that I've never been this grateful to Roman as I am right now. He's decided to keep José during a turbulent time where he'd been long gone by now if this was a few years ago, and he's funding this football colosseum out of his own pocket. London has so much beautiful contemporary architecture - this looks completely different not just in general terms, but also in the world of football. No one has a stadium even remotely close to this, and in 10 years people will envy us. Us against the world, lads :)

Not worried one bit. I'm sure they're doing everything they can to make this become a reality.

The single tier stand will be impressive, but the stadium itself will not imo. It's basically a modernized version of The Emirates. I'm so glad we're not going for something like that.

According to the official website, the main goalkeeping kit is green. Btw look at the kit Cech used against Sydney FC.

We should always strive towards improvement. Our first XI has obvious flaws that could be fixed if we got the right type of player. Easier said than done this summer, but United are catching up and we should try to strenghten if we can. If Mourinho's preferred targets aren't available, then I'm obviously okay with us not diving into the market. Don't want any meaningless panic buys like Meireles.

Pedro is a typical Mourinho player. I don't particularly fancy him that much, but it wouldn't surprise me if we were interested.
