Apart from the middle the squad is currently bloated. Too many centre backs and too many attacking players. There has to be a little bit of a trim before anymore additions. Even the middle has Tuanzebe/TFM fighting for the defensive midfield spot so on the whole the squad is bloated unless Jose sends them on loan.

Lets be honest with ourselves the team is overbloated with mostly average players. How many world class players can we boast of apart from Pogba,Herrera, Bailly and De gea . In my View,Most of the other players are supposed to feature on the bench. Meanwhile,Rashford,Martial and Lingard will need couple of years to mature.

We have a long way to go and Mou is not helping matters with some of the signings linked to us. For example why should we buy Eric Dier for £60m? Or How is Perisic( £48m )our best option for LW at 28?. I hope that the funds spent are not wasted at the end of the season.

Nawaoo.. How many world class have we bought in recent seasons? What was the turn out? How many world class players will Man Utd go for and they'll sell cheap to us? This same issue is what we discuss everyday. Madrid was holding out for outrageous sums for a bench warmer. Sometimes we the fans just want some glossy signings like we are in some football manager game where we cab buy Messi, Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic in our team. Have you considered the fact that some of the world class today where in fact nothing few seasons back. Look at Mbappe.. One season and we will now categorize him in world class worth in excess of 100 million pounds but when Martial was banging goals 2 seasons, assisting last season, he wasn't world class. Ferguson was winning titles with average joes. Assembling a team of mercenaries is not how you sustain a long term project. Mourinho is not looking at the short term which is obvious from the young 'non worldclass' players he's bringing in except maybe perisic who from what i feel is to challenge Martial as he's not willing to step up as he did when he came, he's looking at players who can win titles and dominate for years and wouldn't cost an arm and a leg to get considering the market rate of nowadays.

I respect your arguement and i dont think clubs who have superstars will sell them to us easily. But my point is we have been spending and are still spending outrageous amounts on above average players. Instead of going that route without achieving anything why dont we allow our young lads to grow?. For example i pray Lukaku comes good, but spending £75 mil plus £15 mil in add-ons is wasteful. I will support him as every true fan should do but common..... these are outrageous sums same for Pogba's transfer.

I insist many of our players are average at best,whether they will improve or not is left for us to see this season. The scouting department need to up their game as well. There are lots of good deals out there things shouldn't be that difficult.

Ibrahimovic missed 18 clear cut chances. That must be a record.

One guy would soon come out to say Ibrahimovic created the chances the first place. But when Ibrahimovic got benched we beat Chelsea easily. When he got injured, Rashford scored the winner in Europa by dribbling the last man to take us semi final. And we won the Europa without Ibrahimovic.

Ibrahimovic is old and his lack of pace meant he couldn't even advance towards goal on one vs one situation with keepers.

Thanks for this comment smiley

This is my problem with most United fans, you complain that the squad is filled with average players. The board and management try to get quality players, you scream that we are paying too much. How many of those guys that can be gotten at a seemingly cheap/for good deals can walk into the team and be a starter?

It is difficult for top English clubs to make very good deals because of the knowledge that English teams are making excellent money from the new television deal that was signed of recent.

Lol. Some people still believe Ibrahimovic carried our season because he won us EFL and scored the most goals. None of dem ll take into account that his misses glued us to the 6th.
Thank God his chapter at United is over tho. Looking forward to a better 17/18!!

A team of Champions does not need 11 world class players in its starting 11. All u need is like 3 class players and 8 harworkers.
JS Park, Oshea, Ferdinand, Rafael, Fletcher, "Carrick", Nani, Roy Keane etc. None of these guys were world class level.

Lukaku is not that slow. Make Zlatan just go find somewhere else. I'm sure they'll welcome him back at Ajax.

Did you know??...In the 90s Arsenal Soccer Club had a player called David Dicks. When he was injured, the Newspaper wrote"Arsenal to play without Dicks". The coach was upset so the Newspaper changed the headline to read"Arsenal to play with Dicks out"... A record number of women attended the match.

Like i said it all boils down to a matter of opinions. Who exactly is a world class player? And/or what makes a world class player?? Am sure ur definitions go dey different from mine and it'll probably spark pages upon pages of debate wey i no get time for right now!!

Both Keane and Ferdinand won lots of titles and scooped up a few individual accolades along the way. But they just didn't reach that world class level for me.
