Yeah they do talks at the ground the odd time and sometimes show new signings about etc. Silly wee jobs a few times a year.
-
They're "global ambassadors." These cuts are fair IMO.
-
From their academy alone the last two summer windows: Palmer - £43m Charles - £10m Trafford - £15m Forbs - £12m Harwood-Bellis - £20m Delap - £15m That's £115m of pure profit PSR wise. They can spend a fortune off the back of that alone and that's not even including the Alvarez deals plus the sales of Mahrez/Laporte/Cancelo to Saudi. They are golden for a while yet.

Leipzig have no chance of signing him.

He said in the same sentence, "I know you want headlines. There's your headline." You could almost say it was a tongue in cheek remark based on that. Maybe he does need to clarify what he said mind, and I'm sure he'll be asked about it before the next match in the press conference so will be given the opportunity to do so. I agree with what he said though, that in this moment in time we're being the worst team in Man United history. I know we've been relegated before, but the form we're in is relegation form. I'm sure this is what he meant.

I would disagree. I thought Alvarez was class, and £14m for him was outstanding business.
-
Alvarez had 100+ apps in two seasons and scored over 30 goals. It's just good scouting. Nothing else.
-
I have more than one friend Shay.
-
City had huge sales in the summer and only bought Savinho. Big sales on academy players like Delap (£15m) and Harwood-Bellis (£20m) plus huge profit on Julian Alvarez (~£70m).
-
Worst thing is, it's my mate who does the voiceover for these.
-
£57m for someone who doesn't even start. It's insane out there now.
-
Can't argue. It's totally reliant on sales. If we sell Rashford or Garnacho for anything significant we'll be able to spend a fortune though.

We desperately need another CM to partner Ugarte. Mainoo is very good, but he still needs a lot of development and needs to be protected. Ugarte is doing all of that work himself in there at the minute, and Mainoo isn't offering enough going forward for that to be acceptable. In terms of importance I think it's the following: LWB - Doesn't need any explanation. We don't really have a suitable left back that can stay fit. CM - As mentioned above. Needs more depth to let Mainoo develop properly. Eriksen and Casemiro too old. CF - Hojlund is 21 and not yet ready to be the starting striker. Zirkzee is 23 and more of a #10 IMO. RWB - Dalot might be alright here as he has the pace, but would need depth either way as Mazraoui is too slow. Mazraoui would be more of a squad player for numerous positions. GK - Onana is SHIT. CAM - Someone to backup Bruno and Amad. It's going to take a few windows.
-
I'm not saying we only need wing backs, I'm just saying they're the only specialised positions that might not fit into a future team without Amorim at the helm.

Any CB or #10 bought for a 3-4-3 will be able to play in any formation that requires CB's or #10's, which these days is all of them.
