As for our ins and outs, ideally:

In - Sabitzer, Maignan, Aarons/ Lamptey, one or two CBs, making Vinicius’ deal permanent, another Bale loan.

Out - Doherty, Dier, Toby, Davies, Winks, Sissoko, Dele and Lamela.

Realistically only 3-4 on each list happens though, so we’ll still be left with too much dross and not bring enough in to freshen the place up.
 
I feel like the Pogba saga will dominate our summer, and unless somebody stumps up £60m+ or a very good part-ex deal (not Aaron Ramsey or Adrien Rabiot) then we’ll let him run that contract down again and he’ll leave on a free again. Unless he signs a new deal, cos nobody else is gonna offer him £400k a week.

Varane, Dembele, De Ligt or Verratti could work in swap deals.

Judging from the hype of the last 3/4years regarding Hamza, he should be a first team regular by now with the holding position his own.

likewise with Demerara Grey

Your club can spot talent no doubt but they can’t seem to help maximise it...the players progress seems to come to an end and they just become bog standard with potential again.

Hamza may still come very good ... but with Wilf and Youri Tielemans in the more defensive roles he is not getting a starting place anytime soon... and he needs to be starting at this point in his career ... shame as he has been with the club since he was a real nipper ... Demarai is already doing quite well in Germany by all accounts ....

Not a wind-up honestly ... but can you really see anybody paying 60+ million for him?
 
Wouldn't be surprised if Ronaldo leaves Juve, he's conquered another country but they're nowhere near being good enough to win the CL nowadays and I think that was part of his plan; to conquer Europe with a third club.

That Choudhury bloke is a mug, he's going to end an actual footballers career.

With a year left on his contract possibly not, but he’s a commercial monster so maybe Madrid would stump it up. If he signs a new contract then no, cos we’d demand far more than that. I think he’ll sign tbh with the world the way it is.

Can see him going back to Madrid.

I don’t think he’ll extend, which means he has to go this summer from a United perspective, given his wage demands there’s only a handful of clubs who could take him, unless he goes for relative buttons. As you say, it’ll likely drag on all summer.

It depends who can fork out £50m plus a signing on fee plus Raiola’s swollen fee, plus £400k a week. Maybe Madrid if they weren’t lining up the likes of MBappe. Only other option could be PSG but would he go there? I dunno.

I think he’ll sign if we show a bit of ambition this summer, or if he has no better option. Money talks and very few have more than we do.
 
I’d say for us, it’s highly unlikely that we’ve changed the structure of our transfer personnel to sit and do **** all this summer. Apparently Inter have defaulted on their payment plan and owe us the balance of Lukaku in one lump this summer, plus we will get fees for Lingard and possibly Pogba, and have a rumoured £100m in reserve still. We also wipe about £40m-50m a year off the wage bill when Lingard, Mata, Cavani, Pogba (if) & Rojo and hopefully 2-3 ****ty others leave.

Can’t see a repeat of last summer again, we’ll have to go big.

Or he could just see his contract out and see what his options are the following summer.

Probs end up getting Almiron for £10m when Toon get relegated.
