If they’re smart, they’ll take the L and ship them all off to Porto or some shit.

But they aren’t smart, so, touché.

It's the wages.

No one else will pay Maguire, Antony, Sancho, Martial etc what they earn now so they never go.

Then they do ridiculous shit like pay daft money for the likes of Varane and Casemiro who are obviously only going one way and are clearly dead money and give them long deals too.

 

[Alan]

D’oh!

I forget about those. Pesky things.

This is the thing! If Casemiro and Varane still had 3-4 years in them, Real don't let them go. €70m for Casemiro, and then chuck €30m on that and get Bellingham. Who's got the better deal there United?

Sancho was such a bizarre one, it was like they'd never watched him play. As soon as he arrives, try and play as a 90s style out and out winger.

That's before you get to the nonsense of the Ronaldo deal

 

[Dire Wolf]

It's such a shame seeing Man Utd look shit. It breaks my heart...

Thats them over last few years looking for a quick fix & avoiding hard decisions.
No team building or long term thought or approach at all.

They tried building for the future and bought Dan James!!

He is a rare group, heard he is 1 of only 4 players that they sold for a profit in last few years (perhaps since Fergie left).

 

[PuntsWolf]

Coady an expensive cheerleader this time then

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I know they've been winning loads and managers won't change it when that's the case, but there's no way Faes is better than him, he's awful.

 

[PuntsWolf]

I’m assuming Leicester play a pretty high line consistently and Coady just simply can’t play that.

Not really, Leeds haven't really got in behind them on any great scale this evening. They basically play a back three when they have the ball too.

Fair. Although I’d definitely have Faes higher in the “fuck up” potential, he’s probably better at the core defensive aspects.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I think United are hard done by there. I don't think you should be calling Maguire offside, Garnacho is the question and he was well on.

 

[Jack Regan]

There was me thinking offside according to PGMOL was a factual decision. If so why is that prick Gillett sending him to the monitor?

Ridiculous putting the onus back on the ref as well.
Besides which how did Palhinha escape a booking for the 'tackle'?

 

[Tredman]

This is a pretty good game but only because both teams are shit

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Antony is almost as bad a signing as Guedes. Almost.

£80m on someone who did alright in the Eredivisie. Mental. El Ghazi has a decent record over there…

 

[HanDoJin]

Fabio has a decent record there

 

[Tony Towner]

Not really, hugely exaggerated by his cabal of followers.
His last 10 games there. 1 start, 7 sub appearances (4 of which were less than 15 mins), 2 unused sub, 1 goal, 1 assist.
