bluesman2610 1,430 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Anyword on why we aren’t looking at other options other than Caicedo. Are players like Thuram and Kone more expensive. Because from what I can see they offer much more than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that we had a prayer of getting close to them this coming season, but it’s difficult to see how anyone does for the foreseeable future when they can do this. If it hasn’t already happened, the PL will soon just be the Bundesliga on steroids. Yes, the overall quality of the league is MUCH higher than in Germany but the champion will be the same every year. hm I have my doubts Gundogan and bernardo are leaving and after 2 seasons Pep will also leave the club Im not sure if Kovacic and Rice can substitute gundogan and bernardo is a incredible player also KDB and Mahrez are getting old and maybe they can have a break next season we will see but the truth is that they always find a way to win titles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Los Che slapped a €25m asking price on Mamardashvili, who had an impressive 2022-23 season we are mad if we drop €75m (£65m) on Diogo Costa instead of £21.5m on Mamar This seems like a no brainer to me Vesper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,146 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Honestly think we can get a better deal for Mason if we shop him around. A lot of clubs will want him. He’s always been a managers dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 19,280 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 If we lose out on Caicedo I hope our alternatives are proper ballers in a technical sense. Super technical, tidy footballers with excellent first touch and great in tight areas. I’ll be super annoyed if we go out and get midfielders who are mostly just big, powerful athletes first and foremost and have questionable technical ability. Like if instead of going big and trying to get Barella we instead go for Onana from Everton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gundalf 806 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) Bayern fans dont know where this news is coming from tho. Ig its all PR. I think its pretty obvious that all these "United dropped interest in Mount and target Caicedo now" news are nothing else than PR messages pushed by United using journos to put us under pressure. So maybe these Bayern links are our PR response, showing United that we arent afraid of them pulling out bc we might have alternatives. Mind games if u ask me.

Citeh have flux and positional issues (platers being played out of position) in their defence this summer their fullbacks are a mess (2 CBs playing there often), they are likely soon short (left footer needed, thus Gvardiol) at CB, and they have no true viable backup DMF as Kalvin Phillips was a bust (anotherCB, stimes was filling in) CBs Rúben Dias John Stones (but was being used in the MF often) Aymeric Laporte (likely will be sold) Taylor Harwood-Bellis (youth, may be sold) CB/Fullback hybrids Nathan Aké Manuel Akanji LBs Sergio Gómez (meh, not remotely good enough, likely sold) Benjamin Mendy (gone, will likely never play for them at all) RB being played as a LB João Cancelo (gone, will be sold) RBs Kyle Walker (gone, going to Bayern) Rico Lewis (18yo youth) DMFs Rodri Kalvin Phillips (bust, will likely be sold) Máximo Perrone (youth) Rice is a bit strange I admit but not Gvardiol and Hakimi and surely they are hunting for a left back as well (Real Madrid, their main competitors, needs both RB and LB as well) Nuno Mendes Alphonso Davies Alejandro Balde José Gayà Theo Hernández Federico Dimarco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 31,104 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 my prediction is that most all of these (or close to it), will end up at Citeh or Real Madrid by summer 2025 or so Erling Haaland (will move to Real) Kylian Mbappé Vinicius Junior (Citeh or PSG IF Real gets Mbappe) Jude Bellingham (already there) Bukayo Saka Victor Osimhen Jamal Musiala Khvicha Kvaratskhelia Josko Gvardiol Alphonso Davies Achraf Hakimi plus Real will come hard for Reece James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
