we shouldn’t be spending 57m on a player and then hoping he does a job in CM.

as said previously and repeatedly we didn’t need him. L
it’s little things like this cumulating in where we are today.
Wasting money on players we don’t need and then wondering why we have no quality in the areas we need players in.

him and vdb. Our last two signing worth a combined 100m and both and basically surplus to requirements as we have better players in their positions.
Many times. It isn't being made up.

Ajax must be thinking "". We sign 2 of their 3 most expensive sales of all time (a club like Ajax, who've sold Bergkamp, Suarez, Sneijder, Ibra, Overmars etc) -- and both players either can't get in the worst Utd side in living memory or are being called to play different positions after 2 games

It's almost like transfer fees are significantly higher now than when they sold the players you mentioned.

Yes you're right. DVB + Lisandro are commensurate with £100 mil of assets in this modern age AKA what Liverpool paid for Salah, Mane, Diaz, Firmino combined in the past 5 or so years.

Can only imagine Edwin & Marc's faces (when the latter wasn't chasing skirts) when Arnold, Ed or John hopped on the phone. ""

Not sure how true…


I think that’s about right tbf

He handled him well early on

Problem was the entire team shit the bed when that silly @#%&! in nets gifted Brentford two goals. We’re mentally fragile and having that tit in goal is costing us so much.

He played 22 games in defensive midfield for Ajax, the most recent being two and a half years ago. In 2021, Ten Hag said he "does not have the running capacity to play in midfield".

Think we're more likely to switch to a back three than see Martinez in midfield personally.

Obviously everyone looks at his height and raises an eyebrow, but from what I’ve seen he’s done £#%&! all wrong so far. The 3rd goal Saturday was a collective £#%&! up that he couldn’t do much with. Writing him off because of what might happen is just odd. There’s been plenty of tough, short CB’s that have excelled.

f*** me. When you're breathing in the rarefied air on Planet Ronaldo FC (aka "build the team around a 37 year old") & dreaming of an Eriksen/DVB midfield pivot as the ailment to the clubs midfield woes & hallucinating about Frenkie stands to reason you need to invent enemies to make sense of it all was Spurs before you absolute muppet. Scouser now. Who next??

and dunk given you think the billion we've spent was Monopoly money and not real not surprised to see you here defending the DVB + Lisandro purchases either.

We will go 5 at the back before Lisandro lands in midfield. Called 5 at the back before the season started. Only way to play with this squad. Carry on.

Is what it is. P.s. -- told you the Liverpool full backs were £#%&!ed soon as they played Fulham. Not sure you agreed from memory? Now being accused of being a Scouser by the insane brigade

Anyway won't derail anymore. The lad cannot play midfield in this league. He also cannot play a 2 man defence or the 3rd Brentford goal will happen frequently. Its a back 5 or nothing. Time will tell.
