Would have been epic if a coveted EPL superstar had a release clause that was activated after their early deadline, and they had all that money just sitting in the bank unable to spend it :lol:
 
'Pool really managed to get 20m for Ings...

Jesus :lol::sick:






What goes on in public and behind the scenes is very different though :lol:,nothing players have posted

I'd be down to make an avy/SN bet over not falling out of the top 6. Think the club would rather sack Mou and have either Carrick/Mckenna as a caretaker if ever a top 4 spot was in doubt than letting the ship go down in flames...

Having everything thinking they're relegation bound might be the best for the squad in the long run,not as much pressure heading into the season which might be what Mou was going for

Not interested in making that bet. No idea what will happen this year, but even Arsenal is investing in depth, so things might be crazy for anyone outside City. I do agree Mou would be fired in a heartbeat if the top 4 were in jeopardy.

Not interested in making that bet. No idea what will happen this year, but even Arsenal is investing in depth, so things might be crazy for anyone outside City. I do agree Mou would be fired in a heartbeat if the top 4 were in jeopardy.

For sure but I still don't really see anyone falling out over a full season,especially not United who have a better squad than last season. Barring a full on mutiny/meltdown that lasts all season,I'm confident in them finishing in a CL spot
 
So practically Modric is gonna stay for another year
I expect him to be sold next summer though

Yea I can't see Flo allowing it with Kovacic already gone for the season but it seems like he wants to join his compatriots in Italy eventually

More on that

 


United’s hierarchy believe Mourinho is taking a short‑term view rather than thinking more strategically about what would be better for the club in the coming years.

United decided Toby Alderweireld was not worth such a huge outlay, particularly given his age. Only one conversation took place between Woodward and Levy during the summer.

Levy called Woodward to ask about two United players, one being Anthony Martial. Woodward wanted to keep Martial. Mourinho was willing to let him go

Woodward is against selling players such as Martial, Paul Pogba and Luke Shaw as they could be an asset to the club for many years.

United were reluctant to spend vast amounts of money on players they did not consider to be elite performers

They concluded the defenders targeted were no better than those at the club and who, in today’s inflated market, could have cost upwards of £70m without vastly improving the team.
[Guardian]

Been saying they're probably looking more long term passed Mou's tenure and 70m for Toby would've been deseprate as hell when he'll cost just 25 next summer

Lowkey on Woodwards side in regards to the signings,he's bought Mou damn near a brand new 11 already it's up to him to to make it work instead of spending more just to spend.

Not sure I buy the Varane stuff though but not surprised Real would never sell during his prime
