It's going to be a complete restructure with years of being very average and zero guarantees of getting anywhere close to the top again.

"who literally are the worst owners in football history......"

 

I thought we went overboard complaining about Ashley at times.  Considering how many clubs that have went bust or even moved from the area they played in.  But that is some next level bullshit.

Another 12 years of this and they will know and understand what we went through.

It looks horrific, but the cost cutting is going to reach the players as well, and the exits of Rashford, Sancho and Antony with no replacements show this IMO. They'll be absolutely desperate to get rid of players like Casemiro.

It was an agreement as part of the sale. No dividend payments until 2026 at the earliest, and that includes Ratcliffe. They haven't been paid since 2022.

 

 

 

I'd be amazed if none of the jobs go to agency workers. Hard to believe that 250 can go without a negative impact.

I thought that about Mike Ashley before I knew what he was like.

Daft money and daft wages for a daft player, no thank you.

Disagree, obviously Hojlund would have to take a cut in wages, man U a fraction of what they paid.. However there's a good player there and with proper coaching he'll come on.

Far better be on the bench for a top 5 team than a bottom half team.

Happy to have both, a good squad depth, especially with Europe (hopefully) is essential.

Think Osula has had more shots on goal than Hojlund this season. Hojlund is really bad for a striker, not seen anything like it for having so little shots  There’s Man Utd defenders who have had more efforts on goal this season.

I've never seen anything of Hojiund that makes me think "yeah I like him".  And I mean nothing.

[Zero]

I genuinely wonder is those measures necessary to “make Man Utd great again”.

 

I mean, I even don’t know what’s the direction Jim Ratcliffe aims at.

He has just turned 22 and looks reasonably good with his back to goal and hold up play. I'd say there is definitely a player in there.

He's shite with his back to goal and just wrestles with defenders and falls on his arse. His strength is his finishing, but he's been so used to zero service from our greedy wingers that he's coming deeper now and isn't in the box where he should be.

There was an interesting analysis on match of the day 2 about him
