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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago 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.

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. 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 https://www.transfermarkt.com/manchester-united/alletransfers/verein/985/1000/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteV Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago 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… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it seems he’s on absolutely nowhere near that at the minute. Appreciate he’d want a significant rise, and tbh, so he should if he’s being bought for something like £40m+, but I think he would accept a lot less than that. Who knows though? All just hypothetical . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhog63 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago If they could sort the money out, Mainoo would definitely play Eddieball Garnacho has loads of potential. Tbf, even that hideous Antony looks a canny RW. Players stuck at a toxic, unhappy club tend to flourish when they're removed from the stench and allowed to breath and smile again.
