Why do you keep saying managers? :lol:Ten Hag spent more than Howe and that's it. Howe has spent more than Mourinho, Van Gaal and Solskjaer. Lucky for you that you have a competent board that know how to sell players and do dodgy deals with Forest to make the net spend look decent. 

 

Sure you paid us money for that person, only to sack him 3 months later. 

 

Wonder if he stayed things would have turned out differently.

Dodgy deals aren't dodgy if they're within the rules, as it happens they were.

Let's sign him.

 

Howe to get the best out of him instead of the Manchester frauds who ruined him.


He’s a twat. We don’t sign twats.

Not totally convinced that the improvements are down to leaving Man United or leaving the Premier League. Considering Sancho and Rashford haven't massively improved I'd hazard a guess that it's the league more than anything. 

 

Think McTominay would have been an ideal Longstaff upgrade though.

Howe has been here 3 and a half seasons. Look at what the 3 managers you mentioned spent in their short time at Man Utd. Then allow for transfer inflation. Howe has didn't the 8th most in the PL since he's been here. Your 3 were in the top 3 spenders when at Man Utd

Genuinely think Mainoo could be a Howe-type player. Excellent physical attributes, positional versatility (to a degree). Wouldn’t be in ahead of the starting three (obviously) at the moment, but if, as seems likely to me, Longstaff leaves, he significantly improves depth.

 

The article in the Sun (aye, I know, I know…) today claims they’re “certain” to sell him and Garnacho. Says £55m for Mainoo, which is probably a bit too steep IMO, but get it closer to £40m and I like it.

 

Relatively low wages too, so could probably offer him a substantial increase without too much bother.

 

Imagine taking a 20-year old England international off Man Utd…
