Kid Icarus Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) 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.

Ridiculous amount spent the last 5 or so seasons. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/manchester-united/alletransfers/verein/985 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.

GeordieDazzler Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Man United’a transfer policy has been marked by buying players with either no plan on how they will be utilised or that don’t fit into how the team plays. Most of these have been made with commercial interests in mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 So Liverpool get Gakpo and Arsenal are likely to get Mudryk. Those are some serious moves. Whether we like it or not, we must make moves ourselves to keep ourselves competitive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

March will see Liverpool with an abundance of similar players in the front line looking for minutes. Seems like Gakpo might have been better suited to play the left wing for NUFC especially at that price (with some cover at striker and right wing too). ManU fans saying they need a true striker not a left wing. Some truth to that i think. Liverpool front line crowded with needs in their midfield. I think we are going to be conservative in this window meaning no big purchases; just some cover. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 It’s been reported for a while that he’s off, and I’m sure Spurs are favourites to get him. I’m not sure what people see in him. For Everton he’s toe erratic and error prone. I’m not sure him leaving or staying would weaken Everton to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubaricho Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Pickford to Spurs would be too tasty. I would love for a direct rival to have such a shitty keeper. He’d help us into the top 4 permanently himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

King HTT III Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) Pickford for all his faults has been easily one of the top 5-6 consistent ‘keepers in the league for a good few years now, often playing with poor defenders and in an inconsistent and at times awful Everton side. For England he’s been one of the top international ‘keepers during his career with them too. Edited December 28, 2022 by King HTT III Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also believe Enzo wants CL. Edited December 28, 2022 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
