    Hope they don't get bought by Ridgid Tools then.

    apparently ex arsenal sporting director is interested in replacing Ward. Knows klopp wel for time at Dortmund.

    Problem is, lists his 8 signings at arsenal

    Aubamayang - ok to start with
    Mkitaryan - poor
    mavrapanos - who?
    leno - poor
    papastathopolous - poor
    torreira - poor
    guendouzi - poor
    lichsteiner - poor

    All true, but United jumping in like that, days after Liverpool, implied a sense of urgency (panic) that they were about to miss a very huge, gold-plated bus that had our name on it. I don't think there's room on the top of that bus for both of us. (Is that enough mixed metaphors?). :emoticon-0143-smirk

    I shudder to think of what United would have done with that extra $2bn that the Glazers fleeced from the club in interest payments and inflated salaries that they creamed off in their tenure. That's something Apple won't do, and it will all viably go towards players and their wages. And they'll have the tax-exempt money to re-build OT that'll be outside FFP, and they won't charge it to the club - unlike FSG.

    Very true. United will eventually come back to the fore regardless... Just keep enjoying them being crap for now

    Can't see how Man U can legitimately spend significantly more than they do already.

    I find it fascinating that whenever there's an event for which we have no explicatory evidence there's a polarisation of opinion - a division into the "there's probably a perfectly rational reason for it" and the "it's a complete implosion" camps.

    He should play an alien on a sci-fi show. That's a really impressive skull.

    When I saw him, Ten Hag came immediately to mind.

    We have had this before with players liking stuff etc
    Nothing to stop Bellingham changing his mind
    I really doubt he is coming to us
    When City or Newcastle or PSG or Madrid offer 1 million a week he will be off to one of those clubs imho
