Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted August 5, 2025 Share Posted August 5, 2025 To be honest with our threadbare squad I think it's a given Man Utd finish above us tbh, unless we do some serious business very soon, this season could be extremely embarrassing.

Displayname Posted August 5, 2025 Share Posted August 5, 2025 Amorin got 1 point pr game last season. Wouldn't count on then suddenly improving a lot with no changes in their midfield which was the biggest problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted August 5, 2025 Share Posted August 5, 2025 Their midfield, defence and keeper options are still horrendously bad. That and the fact Amorin seems simple minded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve had the following strikers on their books in the last two seasons, and not managed to get a tune out of any of them, really. Hojlund Garnacho Zirkzee Diallo Sancho Rashford Antony Martial I don’t think Cunha and Mbuemo are going to look vastly superior in that team to their Wolves days, and I don’t think it’s enough to turn the ship around. We’ll see. Knowing my luck they’ll have the league sewn up by Christmas. No problem with you disagreeing but listing those players doesn’t help your argument. I wouldn’t take a single one of them in our side but I would have Cunha, Šeško & Mbeumo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just aren’t a good football team, and I think the whole is less than the sum of its parts. There’s an Ashley-era malaise over that club, in my opinion.

I’d take all of them too, as it stands, but I think you drop them into that Man Utd environment and they’ll look shadows of what they signed within six months. I also think plenty of those players I listed would look better if removed from the Man Utd environment, fwiw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m positive when it warrants it and negative when it warrants it and this summer has been largely negative. Edited August 5, 2025 by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their attack is significantly better and they have no Europe so I can see them doing much better this season Even with current signings they easily finish top half, if they get a CM then I think they won't be too far off competing for top 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Famous Nick Posted August 5, 2025 Share Posted August 5, 2025 horrible to think if we dont get top5 I also think Villa wont be good enough this time, so it will be 5 clubs of the big fat shit 6 most likely. and thats the whole points of PSR, dont forget 5th is only CL place as top clubs lobbied to give that extra place to top leagues not to Newcastle, Brighton, Villa etc get into CL but specifically for any club like those fucker have an off season and just miss out on top4 still be able to get into it. they didnt think at the time that Man Utd or Tottenham will end up in lower quarter of the table. so far it worked out nicely as stupid Tottenham finished 5th last season and it did not worth CL, but it did when we finished 5th haha.

Sesko was always going to follow the money - Man U can blab on about legacy - that's rubbish it's the wages they offer. If we’re offering equal money to Man Utd, the player is signing for Man Utd. At some point the club will realise that if you’re after players that the big clubs want, you have to make yourself more attractive than them - I.e. offer more wages. No-one is picking us over Man Utd regardless of what happened last season. To do that with PSR, you need a much higher income; until then, you’re not shopping in the same market as them. Almost as if the transfer strategy isn’t written in joined-up writing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
