How many players can we realistically hope to bring in this summer?

Agree with this, frustratingly as both should go. Rashford is still seen as this great asset who just needs the right circumstances to become great again. His career, a few flashes aside, would suggest different, but here we are.

Yes but it's the speed of change that's the issue.

It doesn't matter whether ETH goes or not this summer as Rashford isn't leaving unless he really pushes for it as no one is paying him the wage he is on at Utd

We urgently need

1 striker
1 midfielder
1 central defender
1 left back
1 left winger

Probably in that order too.

We need to replace

Martial
Mister Dead
Varane
Shaw
AIDS

We need two midfielders really, but those are the priorities.

My excuse is that I'm half asleep - not got a clue.

Any value in trying to add some free players in addition to our primary targets? Players of interest that are already listed as out of contract this summer:

Rabiot CM PSG
Hermoso CB Atl Madrid
Ndidi DM Leicester
Zielinski CM Napoli
Adarabioyo CB Fulham
Rafa FW Benfica
Jovic ST Milan
Casteels GK Wolfsburg

Not saying they are all good options but we will need to find some value without blowing the limited budget.

This seems to have slipped under the radar, I thought we could
Put our own money in now the debt has been “cleared”. Isn’t a 100 million net spend less than we’ve been working with?

This lad would be a good start

Nice of him to take the step down.

Well, all I was suggesting is that we cannot buy a whole new 11 in one go

No thanks.

And I’ve explained my reasons why, with evidence aplenty.

Another sick note

Just what we need

Yep, he's still black. He hasn't even had the decency to put on a bit of make up or anything.

This could work, get rid of Rashford and play Ten Hag left wing. It couldn't be any worse.

All depends on who Potter or Southgate want.

Are there any other examples where a big club have had to basically replace the owner, the board structure, the coaching staff, the manager and most of the team and done it successfully ?

Without financial doping of course.

Our recruitment record is so bad that we shouldn't be thinking about signing anyone. Get rid of as many players as possible and see what is left towards the end of the transfer window. If you look at Klopp's signings in his first few years there is a lot of dross that he was able to mould, we should try and do the same thing
