I just realised ralf didn’t sign any players

LvG should never have been sacked either, just as the players are acting up now, and did for Ole and Mou, they should’ve been told to STFU and do as they’re told or be replaced. Not doing that then helped get us here.

Loyal support - you just don’t get it, schweinsteiget is a brilliant buy, Falcao

Jose: most people “this is the best possible appointment”
Loyal support: “woke up this morning feeling f… hang on I don’t like him…. Errrm it’s the GLAZERS!!!”

Ole: most people mmmmmmm
Loyal support “Ole’s at the wheeel….. hang on he’s not so everything he did was woodwards decision and anyone who says otherwise is a glazer apologist.. “

I hope you all boycott the Liverpool game because you think the Glazers are @#%&!s like some of us did nearly 20 years ago and were called @#%&!s for it. Then tell us how you can’t give it up because you’re top reds and when the inevitable five games of good results comes you call everyone doomlords and you knew all along that ten Hag was the best manager in the world.

what are you blathering on about?

It was never decent.

Dan James was a horrific signing. Absolutely shit.

We made £14m on him, that’s a good turnaround. More profit than we’ve made on a player since Ronaldo, I think

That can't be true.


Can't be

Giggs recommended him didn’t he?

not even close.

Mourinho actually won us trophies.


ole on the other hand gets an easy ride despite doing nothing positive for the club.
ralf came in after ole was sacked and said we needed open heart surgery.
if that was any other manager it wouldn't be taken so lightly.
oles 3 year project was basically a monstrosity thats needs to be burnt to the ground and rebuilt.
ole didnt leave us with one decent department. just tears and exit interviews

Could be: will need to go on a fact finding mission. First impression is that The greats (Rio, Rooney etc) were allowed to swan out gracefully on free transfers. The not so greats were allowed to swan out ungracefully on free transfers. Not a lot of actual money coming into the club for players NQAT

%@#$&!s I’m afraid.

You might think selling your soul for a Carabao cup is worth it, most do not.

He won those trophies off the back of the confidence and good feeling in the club that winning the FA Cup with a young side had instilled. He then eroded it away until the cloud over the club was cloying. Worst possible appointment.

Pereira at £8m might be closest

Probs threw his laptop at the wall when he finally watched him play

Mourinho basically forced the club towards Ole out of desperation to reassert “the Utd way” after that mushroom cloud of bile and poison Mourinho left around the club in his wake. Basically the root of all evil.

Oh, he was also on 20 million a year. Mourinho & Ronaldo are going to bond over taking the ever loving piss out of Utd at Madrid reunions NQAT (from their thrones of money)

United name in the mud.

Zero trophies.

sad but very true.

Yes Sancho is so much better

He was definitely an Ole signing.

Yeah one of the biggest disasters Ole and Ragnick made was making him Captain and keeping his place in the team despite a litany of mistakes. As much as those parasites have bled us, Ole pissed a lot of money up the wall (Varane wasn't the best signing either and is on colossal wages).

It's one of the things that ten Hag needs to rectify asap. Don't care if he's captain, that's a mistake he has to sort out immediately because I definitely believe the leaks that he isn't respected in the dressing-room (how could be as a footballer?).

Ten Hag has got Malacia, and he needs for double down on Gakpo and do the same with Shaw and Rashford.

Dan James was bought for £15m + £3m add-ons, sold for £25m. Small profit, but another bad signing.

And that makes him a good signing? Thought we were a football club not B&M Bargains. Anyone we have to sell on is a bad buy

Yeah, Man United isn't really about buying low and selling slightly higher.

Who was the last player of any quality we sold purely to make money?
Beckham, Stam and RvN fell out with Ferguson. Ronaldo wanted to go to Real....

Who was the last player who was actually good who was sold primarily for the income? Hughes to Barca?

Dan James was and is £#%&!ing shite.

The problem we have is that every signing is viewed as being forever, and every signing comes straight from the coffers because we make no money on transfers.

City, Chelsea and Liverpool pay for their transfers by selling players at great profit, regularly, having acquired them cheaply. We have to do the same. We managed it with Dan James, ergo - good signing.

Right, and now we aren’t the richest club in the World as we were back then, nor do we only need to buy 1 or 2 players a summer to ‘tweak’ the team anymore.

Your thinking is exactly the through process at the club and the reason we continue to fall further behind clubs that are run properly.

The difference is that they get good use out of them before they sell them on.

No they don’t they farm the £#%&!ers out on loan, cream loan fees, then flog them when their value is high. All of them do the same.

Are you kidding? We usually have to give the @#%&!s away.
