    Speaking of utter bollocks.

    Seeing what players other teams are buying, and for how little.

    Then looking at how much United have paid for a range of players that are crud.

    ^ a combined Man U/Chelsea 11 of underperforming players at big $$$ could be a world beater (for poor value/purchases).

    After Lukaku scores a hatrick and wins man of the match in the Champions League Final, I hope Chelsea take a chance on him fixing their striker problems at a reasonable 100 million or so; gotta be worth 350,000 a week too.

    Indeed. We could line up with Mr Blobby in net with Qatari investment (and he might even be better than the current incumbent).

    Who has the first clue what the manager would want?!?!?!? Aside from the fact that Rice is going to Arsenal and Bellingham had been nailed on to Madrid for months.

    Nu football fans, eh?

    And we don't need a sugar daddy anyway. Unlike some we could mention, we make more than enough money ourselves to compete with anyone in the transfer market.

    It's spending the money wisely that has been the problem, not finding the money.

    I would be tempted to wait and see how much the Custodians of the Two Holy Cheque Books give to Eddie Howe to spend on the Champions League before you label that as "fact".

    Well, yeah, but I would be very surprised if Rice were to leave London. From what I've heard he's just had a kid with his missus and that's where they want to be.

    However, in terms of the barcodes, rumours of them sniffing around Kim Min Jae of Napoli, who United have been after, might go some way to explaining this from L'Equipe over the last 24 hours about United now moving for Disasi from Monaco:

    Man Utd ‘close to completing surprise transfer for France World Cup star in under-the-radar PS44million move’ | The Sun

    But who knows what the great Ten Hag has planned for the mighty Manchester United?

    So my commenting on the foibles of SEA airport security is somehow comparable to you believing every piece of ridiculous bullshit tabloid journos can make up between now and transfer deadline day is it?

    Think it was Betty asking about what Mount would bring to the team.

    Man Utd transfers: Why Chelsea'&#39;'s Mason Mount is wanted by Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford | Football News | Sky Sports

    It's an interesting, well written piece, with info about the history of Mount and ten Hag.

    Fair points, but I just hope we don't go above 60 mil for him and have money left over for a centre forward (well, 2 please).

    We do need some legs and talent in that midfield though. If only we had Fredriksen and McTomemiro...

    Indeed.

    A right back, and offloading backup Maguire and bringing in a backup CB wouldn't hurt too.

    A #9 (or 2) has to be priority though.

    That wanker was probably reading TD, and just copied what I said (filled in with some fluff...)! Where's my commission???

    You need to start with a keeper (get rid of your current one). Get rid of Maguire. Mount can be attacking midfield purchase (Get rid of McTomriksen). Get Kane (get rid of Martial). Kane looks like a donkey, but he just keeps producing the goods season after season in an average team. Man U are not that much better than an average PL team, so a 9 who will give you loads of goals and assists for the next 2 to 3 seasons while you progress into a better team would be a great addition.

    Money in = 20 million (if you are lucky).

    Money out = 160 million (if you are lucky).

    Not anymore.

    Sold to Qatar for 5.5 billion quid.

    arabianbusiness.com

    18 years of pillaging the club and they end up selling us to a fucking state.

    Glazer bastards.

    Yep. Never really expected anything else.

    They will be much better than the Glazers in terms of what they're gonna do for the club, but that's a very fucking low bar.

    Sportswashing continues unabated.

    The share price has gone up 24% this morning, adding another 1 billion to the value.



    Traders betting on Qatar before announcement (confirmation) expected later today.

    https://twitter.com/faisalislam/stat...31101181042688

    Sheikh Jassim has said he will pay out on NY listed shares at takeover price while Ratcliffe is focussed on the Glazer shares so listed shares wouldn't immediately benefit. Hence Qatar.

    One of the biggest non-criminal heists in the history of mankind by the Glazers. Invested nothing, taken at will and made a massive earner on a club they left - literally - to rot.
