But for every donkey there were 3 good buys like Hazard, Willian Costa Pedro etc. There was no obvious choice for a midfielder except rice who has been overpriced for 5 years. Government effed up the Rudiger and Christensen extensions with their sanction because it was obvious Roman was funneling drugs and weapons through the toilets in Cobham. In football not one team has not had a bad transfer window, even Real Madrid (2019 for example). The idea is to not make a loss doing it so you aren't hamstrung the next year to replace those shit buys, like we are now.

I'll be honest I don't know much about Stewart and Winstanely. Poch however failed to win a one team league with Messi, neymar and Mbappe as his front three. That is unacceptable in any case. He has never won anything and I don't expect him to anytime soon. It should precipitate the situation when you saw the 3rd fella (Freund or whatever, German guy from red bull) came and left after less than a year. These guys are going to be the leaders of a midtable team.

He won the league the year after? And he failed to win the season before yes but he took over from a tuchel that left the team in tatters.

they were a team who just made the CL final and were 1 point off the top. Not really tatters , he had several months to make up a single point on the leaders and failed.  I’m optimistic he’ll do ok here though

The speed of this clear out is crazy. You love to see it. I don’t have anything against Pulisic, though. If he was fit all the time I’d have kept him around for 1 more season. But he never is. He’s going to do very well at Milan if he does.

Tell me you are clueless without directly telling me you are clueless. Christoph Freund never even joined the club in the first place. He was in the running for the position but in the end nothing came of it and the club went on to hire Winstanley, Stewart and Vivell instead.

That leaves Mudryk as the only available sub for Sterling, doesn't it?

Sounds super risky to me, but suppose folks have lots of faith here.

I'm a bit indifferent towards Cucurella at this point.

I don't feel he's been as bad as made out and would be decent under Pochettino but equally I won't lose any sleep if he does go.

I just wish we had not shit out 118m quid on him

that money would be SO helpful now

IF Destiny Udogie blows up for Spuds, I am going to be double depressed

as we could have had him for only £15m last summer

15 total league goals produced as a LB in less than 2 full seasons worth of minutes in Serie A, as an 18 yo to 20 yo

plus he is massive (1.88m), pacy, and strong as a bull

I meant vivell. Sorry I don't know the name of the director who joined for a few months and then left. I guess the true fans who are clued in are the ones who will defend stupidity no matter what. Kind of like arsenal fans for 20 years...

What if we're not being slow and are negotiations are being progressed, we're just not as leaky with the media as we were under the previous administration? Think it's pretty ridiculous to make these statements on 7th July 🤣

[Hashishi 148]

I really don't like this board anymore. People just defending the stupidity of the leadership. Am I not allowed to criticise boehly without people comparing how much better he is than the old leadership?

Get informed before talking

United having a keeper that can actually pass out from the back and use his feet will definitely add a whole new dimension to their team. DDG was an amazing shot stopper for years but was woeful with his feet.
