    • How much Clearlake paid Romano to suck him so hard.
    • One less for them.
    • Would absolutely prefer either one over Simons, and not bothered that it probably is summer 2026 till one comes, although before Levi's nightmare, I was not adverse to dropping £75-80m NOW on Rogers. If we do not buy Garnacho we STILL could do it.
    • Lol. I goat mouth it with my post listing the only truly 'big' wingers left out there:
    • Like @Strikementioned, United are basically falling ass first into a crazy good summer window. And tbh it’s not at all because of shrewd operating or masterful planning. It’s seriously just falling into their laps. All of their top targets they’ve essentially got a free run at. No other big 6 clubs competed with them for any of Cunha, Mbeumo, or Sesko. Donnarumma has extremely limited options and will fall into their laps.     
    • That was prior to his CWC "heroics". There's no doubt his stock has risen within the club.
    • We did explore a cheap deal for Maignan so we are not totally against the idea of a keeper joining.  But I can see Donnarumma throwing up red flags for our data-heavy directors. He does have weaknesses playing out and collecting crosses into the box. Not to mention the wages.
    • It is insane how things have fallen for Man United this summer. Sesko was left without a top club and now Donnarumma is being pushed out and has limited options All the elite clubs have top GKs - Barca, Man City and Liverpool have 2 frontline GKs at that. It is a year too early for a GK change at Bayern and Real where Neuer and Courtois are getting old
    • Yeah. I remember there was a report a year or so ago about how this new ownership would break the wage structure under special circumstances but for a goalkeeper? Nah, I don’t see it. Especially because we constantly get media briefs about how much Maresca and the club love Sanchez. Also, we like our keeper to play with his feet which is a weakness of Donnarumma. He doesn’t seem like a stylistic fit. You could say that a keepers #1 duty is to stop the ball going into the net which is true,
    • If Premier League is the likely destination for Donnarumma, I think he's ending up at United.  Can't see Chelsea disrupting the wage structure and can't see Donnarumma agreeing an 8 year £120k contract
