one of the major things that's gone out of the window post fergie is due diligence on potential signings' mentality and character.
there is a pressure and scrutiny to playing for united that simply doesn't exist elsewhere and can turn good players into bad ones, and can make average ones think they are gods gift. we need to start getting that right. |

It really depends how many players and which players we can sell and for what amount.
Preferable players who we think will not fit our future team and give us a lot of money. Preferable players which we would like to get rid off, who have a high salary (Casemiro, Rashford, Varane, maybe Mount? Unless Fernandes leaves, than I would keep Mount). Main priority is that we finally come with a long term plan and try to get the right players/profiles in the next few years. Similar to Real Madrid or Arsenal. Look at the team of Arsenal 5 years ago? It's almost a complete new team. Every year they bought a few key players, perfectly fitting the first 11. That's what we need to do. Because this will take 3, 4, probably 5 years, this means players will normally be max 25 years old now. My prediction is that we will get rid of Casemiro, that Varane is gone, that we will sell Greenwood and Sancho. So we will replace them with 4 players and we will at least buy 2 central defenders (1 replacement for Varane and 1 extra). So we will get minimum 5 players. I hope more, as much as possible... |

indeed! So we have a lot to get excited about because a lot of players will be gone and an enormous amount of extra salary that we can spend. If we can recruit with the knowledge of Berrada and Ashworth, it's gonna be a nice summer. Unfortunetaly there is an European Championship first, so that's limiting us a bit

We might have salary spare but not clear how much we can spend on fees and stay within the financial regulations. |

Varane and Eriksen are on free transfers too I think.
I can see Casemiro being sold and lindelof . Realistically, whilst I’d want many more players to be flogged , Players leaving - AWB lindelof varane Eriksen martial varane Casemiro , Sancho and VDB Players needed - CB , CM , RB, RW , Lb, Cover CB , Cover ST Big window, we won’t get all our players but maybe if ineos are a bit shrewd, maybe singing that Fulham CB on a free as a cover CB, maybe a signing or two from Nice, todibo and Thuram look decent etc. I think if we get a minimum of 4 good signings for the first team we should be good. Who knows, it’s Ratcliffes first window with two or three people who have a track record of knowing what they’re doing. Maybe it’s false optimism but I’d like to think the future is bright. Write this season off, it was a shit show from November onwards . |

My list of players we should keep is - as every season - alarmingly short. There's no way the club can afford the kind of recruitment we need so expect more of the same with a few new faces. Imagine next season with Martial still at the club? It could happen. |

There's no way Dortmund would give us more than £40m, they're not that type of club. His wages will also be a huge problem as he's on double what the next highest paid is on.
There's no way he's going to want to come back. With or without EtH he was a flop here and he wont want the challenge. Casemiro could easily go somewhere like Saudi Arabia. I think he'd be happy to leave, he just doesn't look interested. We'll come to some sort of agreement where we let him go on the cheap. |

With the money we spent, we could have had a squad like Real Madrid or Manchester City, or at least easy top 4 team each year... Quote:

Did it with Rooney iirc, I'm sure there's some accounting reason or maybe the buying clubs don't want to disrupt their wage structure so prefer to split the cost of the player between wages and transfer fee
