I've no doubt he was, I've still seen him looking shit individually for you and as part of a collectively shit back 4. The talk at the time was of him solving your problems/being the finishing touch to make you title contenders.

It's the reason I imagine they're having to sign so many players, so the likes of Colback will never see the light of day for them in the Prem. Thought O'Brien looked good in their last game. Much better than Jack of no trades Colback Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) We actually bid €80m for Antony yesterday and it was rejected. That's a ludicrous fee for a position that isn't particularly weak. Edited August 18, 2022 by Froggy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I mean, respect to Froggy for standing by his players, you could never criticise him for turning on players or the manager but I generally think he overestimates Man U player’s ability levels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely, there must be a younger version that can be had for that price. That Ibrahim Sangare at PSV for example is available for around half of that I think.

Froggy Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 It's £50m + £8m in performance related bonuses. He's also arguably the best CDM in the world and we are desperate for one. It's a no brainer if he's willing to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
