    Tahith Chong has moved from Birmingham to Luton. We'll see him in the PL.

    Clearly letting him go was the right move for him and the club.

    He's 100% definitely not all that.

    Borderline ****e tbh.

    Hannibal seems a level higher, we can see how he does.

    And, mentioned this the other week, what the actual has happened to Ethan Laird?
    He's neither returned nor stayed where he was as far as I'm aware. He wasn't in the squad v Leeds anyway.

    Nor Teden Menghi.

    Sure i read on the United website that these two had been released.
    Will have a quick check of squad on said site.



    EDIT..........Mengi is still showing in the first team squad, Laird has dissapeared from all squads.

    Just looked up what happened to Laird, sold to Birmingham on 1-7-23 for 7M Euros.

    Really, that one slipped through unnoticed?

    He's played championship level last few season, and will probably do well.
    Funny how we now seemingly have some sort of loan/transfer relationship with Birmingham, yet when it actually counted, involving Jude Bellingham, we ****ed it right up!

    Good old Ed.

    Now that he’s officially no longer the captain, is it enough information for you now that the manager does not agree with your foolish and completely biased assessment that Maguire is not that bad?

    Why would you think the manager picks a captain based on ability? We (and other teams) have had some fantastic players who have never been captains.

    Not many team captains I can think of are only good enough for the bench. He's crap - he's been crap and doesn't seem to have the fight in him to reclaim his place and can only whinge on social media. Send the donkey back to the tourist traps of Greece where his career ended..

    If West Ham want Maguire they can pay for him, they've just trousered £110 million from Arsenal ffs.


    Absolutely bizarre the idea of a loan is being touted. It's not like he'd ever come back if he does go off to West Ham.


    Oh, and Vamos. <ok>

    About time we played the game of you want him - you pay our price. £40m at least plus his obscene wages off the books.

    You have to weigh the options up, if a player is on high wages and unlikely to play much then you have to set the sale fee at a reasonably low price. We paid £80m for him and put him on rediculouse wages, that is not another teams fault therefor if we want rid we have to be reasonable with the price otherwise he will just be a drain on the wage bill.
    I think he would be a very good player once the spotlight is off him and a lower team could get a real bargain.

    Rashford has agreed a new contract until 2018 - more good news.

    Just never know if any player can handle the pressure at Utd especially a goalie.

    Plus side is he's worked with Ten Hag before. 150 games together at Ajax apparently.
