Earlier today it’s reported we are planning a new bid for Wissa. If the plan is Sesko & Isak, why? and fwiw, I think you are totally right to be really really concerned. It's just the level of certainty of your statements that I have an issue with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sesko In and Isak Out is the only logical thing that can happen. Not shelling out £40m on Trafford makes a big difference though Edited August 4, 2025 by Deuce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is actually a new bid for Wissa, then that is obviously the safe bit. But as of this point, there hasn't been. Criticise me for having an opinion? if you think different why the fuck would you care what I think? not one single person on here knows what’s happening so you are jumping down my throat coz you don’t like my opinion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 2 minutes ago, PauloGeordio said: Sesko to bed in for when Isak leaves next summer. Wissa in as Wilson’s replacement as a possibility. Wissa would come in if we sell Isak to Liverpool. But I don't see that happening unless Eddie really wants him gone. I can see our owners insisting on Isak staying, plus I think that Liverpool won't stump up enough cash to even make us take it seriously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the plan is Sesko & Isak, why? I understand your point. I would say there is a chance we switch to 442 this year after getting Sesko, Wissa AND retain Isak. 3 players rotating for 2 positions, same as CM (Bruno, Tonali, Joe) Or else I also don’t understand why we don’t find a new CM urgently. 3 players for 3 positions there, destined for a collapse.

Trafford will be a better keeper than Ramsdale and it’s not even close It’s kinda moot, though. We weren’t gonna sneak him past City (maybe last summer we could’ve, but not now).

Barnes23 Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 9 minutes ago, Heron said: Feels like around a week ago folk were whinging we were showing no movement and not enough willingness to make the signings we want/wanted and we weren't doing enough to demonstrate our strength or position on Isak. We've since had the owners and the manager basically stick it to Liverpool and Isak and have lumped a massive wedge on a potential new number 9 and now it's "Ah he's not worth that" and all sorts of other negativity. We may have a better 1st (or 2nd) keeper. A better 1st (or 2nd) right winger and we certainly have a better 2nd striker if we sign Sesko. So we've strengthened in 3 areas as it would stand signing Sesko. If we sign Sesko, we will be selling Isak to Liverpool. If we do so, we haven't gotten anything over Liverpool or Isak at all - we have capitulated, acquiesced, to those we should be looking to topple. We won't even have acquired his true value in this market (imo, £180m plus). The ramifications of that that are much more far-reaching - a few good signings cannot remedy it. That is why the mood remains relatively bleak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloGeordio Posted August 4, 2025 Share Posted August 4, 2025 Hopefully guys we get to see some progress one way or another very soon. It’s all a bit of a cluster fuck but I believe we come out of this window stronger. Time will tell. The club’s bigger than any player. United Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
