Well I for one I'm very happy we didn't get that Longstaff although it was all a rumour...concerning Maguire and AWb, atleast they're proven in the league even Mourinho wanted Maguire so I don't think Ole did much wrong here. Dan James was a shrewd signing and I hope he dusts himself up and get back to his old self.

lol ahan from all the things we have been reading here, magwaya is an epic fail. In fact enough has been said about Maguire and AWB here already, and most likely in other SM. Leave Mourinho, he is past it.

eph12:

Seeing the complaints on Maguire, AWB and James, if you were in charge, I'm sure you won't want to support him that much sef. Cos according to us here, e be like he no sabi buy players

Am not the biggest Maguire fan but our defense is better. One of the best in the league.
I feel like Maguire fails the eye test but his actually a capable defender.
Yes, we overpaid but we got results.
Bruno,maguire and AWB are solid addition.
Even James has the tag of "development player"

At the end of the day na business for this guys so that my reckless spending no fit work. But na the solution be that.

handelex:
Now this comment is interesting, if you fear for the league champions with all the quality in their ranks if they don't improve on their squad I wonder what will happen to us if we don't buy.

since Allison and Dijk dey have added any quality player to their ranks

I'm not so fund of Maguire but tbh he's not failed at all, one can't deny his impact on our defense last season even with his snail pace. We are just angry at the money spent to buy him, fair play to Leceister, they did a good piece of business.

so if you were in a board of directors, you'd go to social media for appraisal of your business. that's very telling.

10 years before the Glazers (97-05) - £297.09m spent on 130 players = £2.29m / player

10 years after (05-13) - £362.79m spent on 181 players = £2m / player
Fergie retires. Starts missing out of UCL.

(13-20) £997.72m on 122 players = £8.18m / player.. and 4 managers later, it's all swings and roundabouts.
I can adjust for inflation but I won't get into complexities.

what we should ask now is
why was there laxity in squad reinforcements during the final years of Sir Alex?
what has now changed to require release of the purse strings?
if you say we are overpaying, it wasn't so projected under Gill. what's changed?
this is the fourth permanent manager, if things are not working out yet then what has been the constant?
we can only make inferences from what has happened before. if Ole is sacked, what's the probability that the next guy will be backed to get UCL football and then left to hang again?

Companies do take survey all the time using SM. SM is a good tool for most business in this era

I'm comparing our data with more successful teams in the last 5-7 years. We have done better than 90% of these teams in the transfer window and that's where it ends.

Just solid depths which are very vital for a world class team.

if you think you've done better where are the results?

Honestly I'm not against sacking any coach that doesn't do well, my problem with the board is not backing the coaches they appointed in the transfer market but hanging them out to dry only to sack them and the cycle continues. It doesn't make sense nau. We desperately need a DOF.

Nitrogen have dropped stats to show much is being spent on players.

I personally feel is lack of technical know how on transfer dealings that's causing this problem of players.

wait after ziyech and Werner Chelsea no win Brighton for Friendly match.

wow!!!!

That' why a DOF is needed but looks like the club's hierarchy ain't ready for that.

Wait maybe we are not understanding ourselves

We have spent more than other teams. We are not doing than those same teams. Can we still argue that this is as a result of lack of spending?

They didn't even win the match? Wawu

patrickmuf:
But who said we must spend 200m? With a proper system in place, 120 - 150m can get you very good players with potentials to become great...

Chelsea with Werner, Ziyech, Chilwell, Kai (likely) won't have cost them more than 250m but if we were signing those players, we have spent over 350m and have you come here to say we have spent enough...The problem is deep, we over pay for players especially players who aren't world beaters...

Another good point have been making since, even if Glaziers release another £200m this window, the people incharge of transfer would still blow it on average over expensive players. Then the fans will turn round and blame the Glaziers as always..

They'll run to the mods as usual

you are going broad.
we are looking at Ole now because that's the issue at hand. if he lost 9 players and we brought in 4 players and another on loan for a total cost of £200m, will you say because it's £200m spent then he has been backed? is it the manager's job to negotiate fees too?

Evening guys, hope y'all had a great day

I mean we are even wishing for new players or from the feeders team to come and replace the players Ole bought just last year.

He lost players that weren't even going to contribute that much. Some have not even played for us in a long time. I am not so sure their presence would have made any difference in the team because Ole won't use them.

His job is to sell his plan/idea to his transfer target and win them over. He should be making those calls. Even Bruno sef, probably Evra and Ronaldo that did the work.

You guys need to see dis yo! I don laugh belle scatter for here

Enough of the wailing. Woodward this, Glazers that..


Let's take a moment to appreciate the Greatest players to have played for Manure, Lord Jesse Lingardinho.

Haba this is not true nau, Bruno, Awb and Maguire are a lock for the first team, James and Ighalo are clearly squad players. So where is that theory coming from?

Yes I agree Ole needs to improve but isn't this your comment a little bit reactionary? Arteta is one to watch out for though..

Bro, it's not reactionary kankan.
Twice now, I've seen Artetas team execute smooth passing from the back and transitioning forward to score a goal- what makes it impressive is, they did it against the two top teams that press the most in England. This shows a coach with a clear blueprint.

See how this lunaticc misconstrued something so basic.
Pointing out that there's a clear pattern of play, which means giving Arteta his due credits, means I want him or something?
Abeg, carry your foolishness comot my side make I see front.

Afrodoc, Van da Beek can compliment both Pogba and Fernandes, Right?
40m is a good deal if it goes through..
