Man U will be gutted about Liverpool getting their man.

 

Liverpool signed Garnacho? :azn:

 

We had personal terms agreed with Gakpo for almost a year. Garnacho's emergence plus Ronaldo's departure has just put all eyes on a centre forward. We already have Rashford, Sancho and Garnacho for the left hand side. Spending £37-50m on another left sided forward would have been a bit mental.

Had we went and spent money on Gakpo the same people would have been saying how it's silly when we have so many wingers already. Infact I'm sure I've already seen that on here. :lol: NO's fickleness is my favourite fickleness.

You are absolutely correct about this. However, this doesn't change that you were after Gakpo but failed, most likely.

I'd say based on what the likes of Romano have said, we have passed on him. Whether that's ETH changing his mind as Garnacho has come through or the Glazer's not sanctioning it, who knows? But signing Gakpo would have ruined Garnacho straight away. Rashford, Sancho and Garnacho is plenty for one position.

 

I still think £80m on Antony was nuts when Gakpo was available for half the price, but at the same time we were crying out for a left sided winger. 

 

Centre forward is top priority by a million miles atm.

Wasn't long ago they were saying similar about Elanga.  What's happened to him? 

Following the well trodden “Darren Gibson Trail” from Old Trafford to Goodison according to the papers this morning. Next stop Sunderland and ploughing into a row of parked cars at 6am whilst pissed out his brain.

The duality of man (united)

 

Are we talking specifically about the Glazer's? Then Man United's activity in the transfer market is unforgivably, calamitously bad and Newcastle fans who experienced Ashley should know better than to simplify and downplay it.

 

Or are we just talking about Man United in general, even though they're owned by the Glazers? Then Man United's activity in the transfer market is unquestionably perfect and every move or non-move is deliberate and from a loftier position in the food chain.

They can't keep throwing money on transfers and hope it sticks. Ridiculous amount spent the last 5 or so seasons.

Jesus keep scrolling on this.

 

The outlay compared to the income is ridiculous. They buy players at ridiculous prices then sell them on at huge losses, in some cases it's not been the players fault, they've just regressed from going there.

The thing is, they often do compete in the transfer market. They often get the players they want and they do pay the money needed to bring them in. They have often been bad buys, either not good enough, don’t have the right attitude, or doesn’t fit in with the manager and his style.

 

It’s not a whole, the Glaziers don’t get us competing argument they like to band on about. You can call them out on having the right managers, people running the club, lack of infrastructure etc, but the money for the playing squad is there and the commercial side of the club is a roaring success. Although they overlap on a lot of things in regards to poor running of a football club, the Glaziers and Ashley are not the same as the argument people like to make it out as.

Oil money is ruining the game and distorting the transfer market though.
