No. easily sell to where? with the high wages he'll get as a free agent? he's a definite NO for me. he has regressed badly. I would have thought we've learnt our lessons signing players like that.
Regressed badly? After just a season where he struggled?

I remember I suggested we sign Ings a couple of years back but some of us here were against the move, the same Ings that moved to Southampton and was very good...

To sign a player of Dybala's quality, you'll need to cough out at least 50m so, if we sign him on a wages of 200-250k for 3 yrs I wouldn't mind...

There's a general dearth of quality attacking players in the market so, I'd rather we sign Dybala than nothing...

NB: I rather we sign Antony but if we don't, then Dybala will be an upgrade on what we have currently as I am not sure Amad and Pellestri are ready to step up and Greenwood is still not training with the team while Sancho seems to favor the LW position.

I have not seen any holding midfielder linked to United, abi De Jong will play CM and HM together. ETH is playing with fire if he thinks De Jong and Erikson only will solve our midfield problem, we need a very good HM to play with Erikson or De Jong (if he eventually joins).
Lisandro can effectively play that position if he joins...

Let it be known to all and sundry that our new signing, VDB will not struggle with this new system.

He will tear up that SS role with his quick combinations

Welcome to digital footy baby kiss

[Dejong Update: Simon Stone]
Manchester United have been getting a bit of heat over the difficulty they have experienced in trying to sign Frenkie De Jong from Barcelona.

It is understood an outline deal is in place but progress towards completion has been slow.

A piece in the Spanish newspaper Marca might explain why.

Marca say they have seen De Jong's Barcelona contract and it confirms the Dutchman agreed to a major restructuring of his contract within an overall extension that was designed to help the Catalan giants through the pandemic.

Essentially, Marca says De Jong had his salary reduced to €3m in 2020-21 and €6m last season. Starting from next season, he is due to earn €18m for the next three years - and €19m in the final year.

Evidently, if he was to leave for United now, De Jong would want some kind of compensation for the money he should have earned by now but hasn't.

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Ellexy: 12:00pm On Jul 06, 2022
No be United dey hold up the deal, na Barca wey no want pay Dejong his agreed salary. They want the guy to just forget what he's being owed you can imagine shocked

Once this is settled, the deal will be concluded hopefully.

They could not make those passes accurately at the speed required by ETH. A sort of football Heisenberg uncertainty principle cheesy

The youth players that trained on Day 1 and 2 of camp did better.
Exactly what I was going to say. The youth players did it better and faster. All I heard the coach saying was that they should up the intensity. The senior players are doing it all wrong.

It'll gel with time sha. I just hope they don't turn on him.

[The Athletic] It is currently not known when — or if — Cristiano Ronaldo will return to Manchester United. As he looks to force a move, he could even go public with his grievances.

Which grievances abeg
cheesy cheesy cheesy
He will return this week sha. It's pointless to stay away while the team's preparing to go for preseason tour. What if a good offer doesn't come in? He should be here by Friday.

Btwn do y'all know the likes of Ziyech and co initially turned on Ten Hag first 2 months or so of his tenure? Ten Hag had a meeting with the players and they decided to meet each other half way. He made some concessions and they did as well. I think Laurie Whitwell said this in one Red devils podcasts.

So he might have some problems with some of these egoistical players. That's why I'm not totally against bringing in ex players on a massive scale. At least as a start until we start seeing some positive changes.

That's if they don't turn on him first as they did with Rangnick after they have guaranteed their place in the team
ragnick bleeped this squad up, people keep shying away from it.. you can't come mid season and expect a team that has not played pressing football for years to start pressing immediately. I like were Carrick was doing, he was playing to the team strengths, which was surrender possession and Counter attack.. ragnick isn't a bad coach, but a bad manager..

You people tend to forget there was a reason Rangnick was brought in.

Ole was friendly with players. Was nice to them. Was always trying to keep them happy. Was ready to adapt to whatever tactics and formation . But he got sacked mid-season, why?

But sure, let's put all the blame on Rangnick.

The funny aspect is the hype Carrick got over 2-3 matches performance when Ole the worsr manager we have had in a lifetime performed better over 10 matches.

I really liked Carrick as a player but i have no idea about his coaching/managerial ability as a couple of matches is not enough to pass judgment.

This is my fear. But as someone opined, bringing in his former players might settle the intending or unforseen hullabaloo.

Ps:
I'd like us to judiciously follow the preseason tour. We need to assess these players not on their previous records. And from the look of things, it's showing a sign of positive progress even if it's minutes.

Lol because of 2/3 matches?

Tell me how the club was going to get a honest assessment of the team from that?

My fear in Dejong insistence is that if for any reason ETH doesn't work out here, Dejong will immediately hand in a transfer request because he does not want to be here in the first instance. That's a lot of eggs in one basket. We have to only bring in players that believe in what the club intends to achieve and are ready to play for the club

I have lost faith in a lot of them. I'm not expecting a miracle from these players. I certainly don't trust the preseason matches. Until season starts proper and we play like 10+ matches before I start to believe in the team or just give up on the season

Telegraph: Manchester United move for Frenkie de Jong is being held up by money owed to him by Barcelona in wages he agreed to defer due to the coronavirus pandemic. He is owed £13.7m in basic wages.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 8:53pm On Jul 06, 2022
Telegraph: As well as the £13.7m in basic wages, Frenkie de Jong is believed to be owed another £3.4m in waived bonuses by Barcelona for playing in at least 60% of Barça's matches over the previous two seasons.

Bayern don't want him. Juventus can't afford him. Chelsea new Owner wants him, I guess for commercial purpose, coz ain't sure Tuchel really wants him.

Real Madrid? Ain't sure Benzema will be happy to have him back in the Team.
