Basically says Man United negotiations have slowed opening the door for us and PSG. Player is keen on the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS - the article was interesting. It suggests that Man U need to move players on before they can buy. Are they in a bit of bother with FFP? Their squad looks a bit bloated with expensive signings.

Geordie Ahmed Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Man-U don't have anything to worry about from a FFP perspective If their budget is low it will be due to the Glazers However, once their takeover goes through they'll no doubt flex their financial muscle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve spunked a lot of money on a lot of shit that they’ve lost for nowt, also the wages for Casemiro et al will be very high. Athletic reporting their budget (even in event of a takeover) will be around £100m to not fall foul of the rules. For a squad that needs some serious money spent on it that won’t go far.

GeordieDazzler Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 They aren’t in a Everton/Leicester situation where they are paralysed from making moves just that they have an overhaul to complete. Plus they may have players they could sell but they can’t shred their squad depth esp being back in the CL. How much will they get for Elanga, Van de Beek and Maguire assuming they can find buyers. The second two probably have exorbitant wages that will put off most buyers. Martial is a good player but is made of glass and entering the last year of his contract. Sort explains where the McTominey links have been coming from, he looks like one of their more saleable assets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoSelecta Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 We both have the same issue; shite players on the books who know they’ll never get anything like the contracts they’re on. Difference is we’ve got Hendrick on £50k and they’ve got players on 5 or 6 times that much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 I do increasingly like the idea of playing Joelinton LW and using the extra defensive contribution from that spot to allow us to use a creative, goalscoring player like Maddison in the midfield three.

Looking at him in clips, he looks like he could play the wide positions or as one of the #8s in our system. Might make more sense to swap him and Maddison in the above formation.
