Precisely why I proper fucking hate Neville and co when they whine about Man Utd not being able to compete with Liverpool/Man City. They’ve spent a billion in past decade and still won more trophies bar the two mentioned. Entitled group of pricks who haven’t even come close to experiencing the lows yet. Go a decade at least without a trophy first before wanting sympathy.

Going to Brondby and Slovan Bratislava in ECL = FUKCING DOG SHIT Going to Silkborg and Victoria Plzen in Europa League = AMAZING

Wrong thread.

Man City and Arsenal away early on in the domestic cups next season, and suddenly people are losing their shit in mid Feb when we're 7th and got nothing fun to look forward to apart from can we get 5th/rely on others.

Tosin is a back up CB that may become a starter, don’t get him, not going to lose sleep as we’ll still target one.

We’ve been in one final since 99 and not won anything since like colour TV was invented. Turning nose up at ECL is mad. Want us in more competitions, because it’s a chance to win something. When there’s not a chance to win a trophy, what’s the point?

How much is the projected miss on income for going deep in ECL and the home games on top? Like £15m?

Think we’ll miss out on Tosin with no Europe.

Bar. Man Utd’s day

Ah well. No Europe, but we’re in a better place club wise than Man Utd going into next season.

Man City need to get loads of these players off, and then in 2nd half actually have some shots ffs.

Only if they were signed as a starter. DCL won't be. Any striker we get, won't be. Isak is undisputed number one, just need someone who can be 2nd option, happy with that, and reliable to contribute with some quality. I'd rather get some exotic, but if they're not getting solid minutes, they may not settle and it's deemed a bad deal.

Thanks.

If we can get a fit DCL, who can play the back up option for next 4 years, it’s a great deal. Because over time, we’ll be adding goals around this team, where the striker links it up and doesn’t need to score loads when replacing Isak. Just a bit weary on the injury side, for someone who’s a physical player and getting into their latter years.

Man Utd have been shit all season, offering up loads of chances. Hope today Man City are clinical, job done at HT and we can chat all 2nd half about ideal European away days and laugh at ETH.

We paid £10m and he’s since fucked his shoulder again since then. £5m-£7m would be expected fee back for him. Basically net return.

How many points would we lose for breaking PSR and by what amount? Like if it’s just one year, and £5m and say 4 points, surely it’s worth breaking to get a player who will be key for many years? Granted it may be what costs UCL, but I’d rather roll that dice and get a player in. Can’t be thrown out of cups for breaking PSR.

Feels to me, quite a few players have been told the club will listen to offers, and the players know now is probably a good time to move on. Cash in on a new solid deal elsewhere whilst their stock is at a good level, instead of staying, don’t feature too much and stock falls. They’ve been on the journey for 2+ seasons, and know the club want to go next level. Most players aware of their surroundings and ability will be happy to leave on good terms.

Could argue it increases it if they need a sale to buy. Likely want to keep Kudus, so he’s the next asset that’s at peak value.

Evolution of side. We’ve seen games where we struggle to break sides down, shift them around. Amazing returns on what we’ve got, but feels a ceiling hit.

Not keen on Bowen. Strong player, just feel we need someone who’s more cute and creative on RW. Like we spent big on Barnes on LW, who IMO can do what Bowen does on that. Need some different style of players.

Joelinton would’ve won it, had the result gone differently. Schar just was the icing on the cake on a memorable night. Can’t wait for more nights like that in years to come!

If a DoF doesn’t want to join, because we won’t make it easy for them to leave if the correct channels are not followed, then that’s a good filter for any of our targets. Don’t want another guy who’s going to try and slime their way out in 12 months in illegal ways.

Forgot Georgia are at Euros. Makes it all more pressing this deal is wrapped up in next week or so.

Wouldn’t be surprised if another is leaked by weekend that a deal is close. Be amazed if we were all in and negotiating with just one guy, and have to start back from square one.
