And we’d have said the same about pogba, Di Maria and Sanches if we hadn’t have signed them. There’s more to it than just talent.
We have no idea why we didn’t sign him. Could be on the club, could be on the player and agent. One thing for sure is woodward and the glazers are c***s; and the player, his dad and agent have no feeling for united.

It was much more than that if the money to the agent and father is to be believed. Plus there’s the pogba situation and dynamic that’s created. If the player had a different agent he’d probably be here now. The fact he’s not could be down to any number of things - the money the agent was demanding from united, the terms of the deal with regards clauses, the politics of the pogba situation, or raiola steering the player away from the club because he doesn’t think it’s the best environment for his development. We have no idea.

Please elaborate

The same way we were still the biggest club in Britain when we were relegated and went 26 years without winning the league.
