    Kane will finish his career at Spurs and be gifted a limited edition DVD of the Audi Cup during his testimonial.

    Wenger saying the ball was out of play before City's goal.

    Evan Ferguson and Cameron Archer are the future in the premier league. Both are going to be stars. I think Ferguson is pretty much already there. If I was Man Utd I’d be looking at him before Kane. He could be the number 9 for a good decade. He’s good enough.

    Honestly think he’s the next Shearer/Kane. He’ll be a hell of a signing for someone when he gets his move.

    Remember Fosse, you lot were looking great, season had turned a corner, battered Villa, battered Spurs, then you come to Old Trafford and we shoved you back into your miserable free fall… we broke your spirit.

    If you could just rediscover a little bit of it before the next game that would be grand, thanks.

    The thing with Kane is that he is guaranteed to get you goals. Look at the the ****e around him at Spurs he's still a goal scoring machine, so in a proper team he could be on Haaland's figures. So even if he's only got 2-3 years left at the top, that's enough to tempt Utd to lay out big money for him.

    I agree though that Osimhen would be the better long term target.

    Man Utd’s modus operandi since Ferguson left has been to throw money at players and hope it works, without thinking about the longevity of it. Signings like Schweinsteiger, Alexis Sánchez, resigning Pogba, resigning Ronaldo, Maguire, Lukaku, Di María, Fred etc. Even with this Antony they paid way over his market value. It’s like there’s no forethought into their transfer business. They just panic and spend. I think only Chelsea are as bad as Man Utd for this in the Premier League.

    Should seriously look into the recruitment strategies of teams like Brighton, who are always thinking about the impact their signings will have 2, 3, 4 years down the line.

    The Ed Woodward era. Marketing genius apparently.

    There's only really Schweinsteiger, Sanchez and Ronaldo second time you'd say there was no longevity or resale.

    The rest, there should be.

    They are more headline signings that lacking in longevity.

    The problem is definitely the scouting we have, or lack of even having one, for definite. This should be resolved by the new management. It's not exactly an overnight process, these issue are caused by the Woodward era as much as anything.
