Decent that aside.

Yeah you’re right, would have been a real statement of intent if only Casemiro had been born 6 months later tbf. Oh well .

Some great players added to the squad, already looking like Maguire is finished here, and I fully believe Erik will be able to improve some of the other players who’ve stagnated a bit under poor management in recent years.



About 3 people were happy with Maguire on here.

A Sage for the ages

I like De Gea, love Martial, and Pogba, despite his @#%&!ishness, is a good player when he can be bothered (which is never). I was wrong about AWB. Pretty sure that was when Maguire was our best defender too. Sadly.

Try again.

Edit - I’ve never actually claimed to be a sage btw, half my posts on here are to rile you up

No, you’ve literally said under 30 because it’s an arbitrary cut off point and Casemiro is a few months older than that, so it still gives you a chance to moan after spending months telling everyone there was no money available for transfers

I’ve used under 30 because that’s the age of Eriksen, and players in their 30’s will need replacing in the not too distant future more often than not. Apologies for being frustrated at us signing players at the back end of their career for our weakest department.

I theorised there was no money to be spent, I also theorised they were going to drop £300m.

If before we had bought anyone and they listed ten players and we would buy of em. Those we have got would have been on a lot of lists. Needs to go strong in league. Let the other lot see the Europa league they have enough there to get through that and the league cup game.

If you look at the outgoings it shows the utter shambles the club was in. We cannot sell players so aren't bringing in any capital.

We have not renewed loads and loaned others so the loanees are still ours but hopefully they either step up or go.

His signings have surpassed expectations at last We have some backbone and players who show some passion.

It's going to take another season to get rid of the rest of the dross and improve the squad.

I'd take Jones lurking about in the treatment room for another few months for victory of the scousers.

You’re not Charles Darwin you self-important @#%&!. You’re a turbo poster on a football forum, and you apparently want credit for posting two diametrically opposite predictions about our summer transfer spending in an effort to hedge your bets and avoid being technically wrong on here

‘Self important’ from the bloke who wants to determine who can post what, about what and when?

Determine who can post what Still crying about the weekend pal?

You have been saying for months and months we had no money to spend, and you’ve been made to look utterly and complete wrong, again. But still want to find an angle to have a whinge

I’ve also been saying for weeks we’ll buy Antony, FDJ, Gakpo and a keeper by tomorrow, I’m wrong about that too. Who give a £#%&!

I come on here to discuss football and what is happening at the time. That’s what the place is for, I’m not sure what’s so £#%&!ing hard to understand tbh?

There was talk of a hugely reduced budget and the first months of the window pointed in that direction. Two weeks ago we were buying £#%&!ing Rabiot and Arnautovic ffs difficult to take from that we were on the cusp of dropping £140m on Casemiro and Antony tbf

Do you want to convey a list of topics people are allowed to post about? Maybe an acceptable number of posts per day that you’re comfortable with? Number of allowable new threads? Links? Etc. you can ask armchair to pin it to the top of the forum?

Are you alright mate? I know you don’t take being wrong about things very well, but you seem a bit rattled? I haven’t said anywhere what you or anyone else should or can post about

In the same way you can post whatever shite you like it, I’m able to take the piss out of some of the ridiculous stuff you post. That’s literally how it works. Now calm down or I’ll get into some advanced searches of your constant claims months ago that there was no money available.

Delighted with how things have ended up, especially given where we were in June, and even two weeks ago.

I think Ten Hag has done brilliantly to get rid of so much dross in one window, being in such quality and put the other wasters in the squad that they’re on notice.

If he’s as good a coach as I hope, he will improve those that want to improve too, and when you put all those things together, I don’t think we are too far away. I’ll be disappointed if we don’t win a trophy and finish in the top four.

Maybe we do need a search session, clear the air etc...
