black_n_white Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago If Man Utd don’t offer the ridiculous kind of money to players (which they are completely entitled to) there is very little ‘pull’ these days, it’s as simple as that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago (edited) Man Utd are still super widely supported and can offer massive wages. Couple of bad seasons won’t significantly change their “pull”, unfortunately. What’s even more annoying is the fact that PSR is helping them stay competitive; ambitious teams like ourselves should be pulling away from them based on the showings last season but it’s not allowed to happen.

It's simply not true. But a lot of players will choose the Champions League football over anything. And if they do, like I said, best of luck to them. We need players who want to play for us.

Conjo Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Pretty naive to not think the wages Man Utd can offer isn't their biggest pull atm. Unless its trying to sign a player who's been a fan since childhood. The history, getting to play in front of 75k fans and potential of the club if they get their shit together is a nice bonus, but if they aren't paying above what other interested clubs are offering, I can't see why anyone would choose Man Utd. You'er kind of in the situation we were in early 00's after missing out on CL. Only reason we got (shitty) big names in was because of what we paid them more than anyone else would.

Firstly, a shit load of players will have supported us. We're the best supported club in the world, which is another reason why players would want to come. Exposure. Brand deals etc. Like you also say, history, 75,000 fans every week and the potential of the club. Being part of the team that gets the club back to the top. You would be immortalised. All fairly valid reasons to go to a club over others I think? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 19-year-old winger is still experiencing pain in his knee and OM does not want to take any risks in this operation. Porto is now the only team in the running in the dossier" Get him signed.

History, getting to play in front of 75k fans and potential of the club is all well and good, but not enough unless you're offering more than better ran clubs that can either offer CL now or a pathway (with track record) to move up the food chain .

buzza Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago The problem with Manu fans is that they are like an aristocrátic family who has fallen on bad times... no matter what they do they are incapable of reaching the heights of their predecessors. 90 % are still unbearable c***s, that also Will never change.

The College Dropout Posted 19 minutes ago Share Posted 19 minutes ago When Chelsea and City were allowed to spend they signed top players from Arsenal and Man U. Peak Wenger and Fergie. Man U still have major pull because PSR makes them the biggest fish going for wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
