the utd stuff is really funny

like as if the glaziers have pulled the plug pending sale or whatever.

hojlund 70mil?
Mount 60mil
onana 50mil

thats 180mil out.

elanga 15mil
Fred 7mil
kovar 4mil
telles 4mil
about 30 recouped.

so that's 150 mil on the wrong players.

I suppose some form of ffp might be in play but they did buy.mount.before July 1?

last year though they spent over 200mil.

all this does is reinforce that Chelsea antics are a complete dodge

Irrelevant if the cost is spread over the contract

He's not very good.

In a possession based team, he will be found wanting. If he's playing for a lesser team which defends deep and just want to hoof the ball away, then he's solid at it. Not good enough for us IMO.

It reminds me of when people used to say Harry Maguire was a top class centre back when in reality, he's quite limited and only suits a team that defends in a deep block. Put him in a higher line with more space to cover and more responsibility on the ball, he's painfully average.

He’s Nat Phillips in reverse.
 
Brighton close to signing Fati on loan from Barca. Random transfer that one. Could be brilliant business if he gets anywhere near his potential but been destroyed by injuries last year or so.

Amrabat one seems very odd. Now saying United couldn’t afford the 30m fee cos of ffp.

After all the hype about him after Wc and what is a relatively cheap price makes you wonder why clubs aren’t moving for him unless it is all hype and the scouting of a lot of clubs haven’t seen anything that makes him stand out

I thought we'd go for him in January when we were desperate for midfielders and his agent was linking him to us every few days.That was at a touted £50m though. The club persistently denied any interest, and tbf some of the posters on here who watch the Italian league (I don't) said he was completely anonymous on a week-to-week basis. He's 28 next month, but still £30m is peanuts for a supposed worldie. I can't help but think that if we'd spend £20m on Endo though... :emoticon-0138-think
 
Balance issue

8's
Left side
Macallister
Gravenberch
Jones

Right side
Szoboszlai
Elliott

Special case
Thiago (can't run as an 8 and not really a 6)

no 6
endo
bajcetic

This seems to me to be rather "attacking"
 
Saudi intent to sign Salah for up to 150m.

Gonna rumble in that one. Get up to 200m and go for it.
