Who are Manchester United's biggest rivals, I always thought it was City, but after Matth's rant yesterday, I'm now thinking Liverpool...confused . com ?
I wouldn't take that site as gospel mate. The Liverpool numbers aren't accurate as far as I know, they think VVD is on 150k, I've read on plenty of other places he's on more than that.
Avoiding newspapers, I've looked at other sites and they seem to say the same figures at the start of the season. It's hard to know for sure though. The problem is always whether the figures are sensationalised because of add-ons.
I think I getting grid of Sanchez, Pogba and Lukaku and telling De Gea that those players wages are no longer his benchmark gets rid of the problem. If Martial is indeed on £250k a week, which I doubt , then that could be a sticking point but the clear issue is the three players I mentioned, whose wages are inversely proportionate to their efforts. Bin the three of them. Make a statement.
Who would take on Sanchez though when he is supposedly on circa £350kpw and he nowhere near justifies that in either playing terms or in marquee signing terms.
We could get him out of the club and would end up paying part of his wages. He'd still be gone, which is the main thing.
he is like a 2019 version of Joe Cole please log in to view this image i hated that useless twat in the same way you hate Sanchez
If it was that simple then Jose would never have been sacked. From what I can see, the players have been asked to train much harder and as a result we picked up a few injuries which obviously didn’t help. Then there’s this rumour of the 25% pay cut if they fail to secure CL football. Then Martial gets a huge pay rise and Rashford is told to wait, and De Gea is asking for parity with Sanchez despite him giving us his worst season... much of this is outside of the manager’s remit, training aside obviously. We are more than capable of accelerating our title ambitions next season so that we are a lot closer, but this hierarchy thing needs smashed to pieces first. Meanwhile, Poch is the GOAT, let’s let the CL run cloud the fact that Newcastle have earned more points in the league than Spurs in 2019.
Let's consider the Spurs PL slump in form is the worst since 2012. The outcome of that being that CL qualification was left to fate in a CL final. The difference this time is that Spurs may still end up PL 3rd, and in a CL final. So let's not cloud these facts with yours eh.
Ole now dealing with the inevitable pressure of being full time manager, which was just obvious really. People like Jenas, Brazil, Durham and any talking head/journo you fancy giving it the 'what more does he have do......?' rhetoric, and then turning on him once we lost a couple of games. Was inevitable, and obvious, but we are where are and he's got to get past all this. The ****ers who made that decision have to now back him all the way. I think I'm probably alone here but if we don't lose tonight then I think we'll win our last three games and scrape fourth. Which relieves some of that pressure and aids his rebuild. If we don't though, it's still his squad to rebuild. Maybe not being in the CL would actually help that, not 100% certain it will but we'll see.
