At the bolded, you can't fault the club on that we have signed Maguire, Pogba, Lukaku, Di Maria all for high fees and of the lot, none has particularly lived up to the expected high standards that's synonymous with the transfer fee they commanded isn't it time the club applies caution?
Maguire, Lukaku and Pogba have done well, even di Maria struggled bcuz he doesn’t want to be here in the first place.. our team on the other hand is sh!te.


Pogba for instance has been our best player until the arrival of Bruno.

Maguire whom I don’t even rate has done quite well. Heard we have are one of the best defensive stat in Europe last season, that’s huge.

He didn't say for that amount and people are allowed to change their minds in the light of new evidence

Last summer, I was team Pepe. I prayed for the club to get him ahead of Sancho sef after watching their highlights. The Pepe no dey even see starting 11 in lowly assnal
that’s not the problem though, The problem is how he turned overrated overnight grin grin

I've seen this countless times, X is too expensive why not save and buy y who plays in the championship and use the remaining change for so so and so.

If we followed this thinking while trying to sign Main Man na Matuidi and sissoko we for the struggle to offload now.


Sancho has 20goals and 20assists in 44apps last season. mention players across any league that can rival this stats.

Ae don't have to spend 80M, 90M or over 100M to get good players. City as rich as they are have never spent more than 70M on a single player. It's all about planning and proper negotiation. If we had done the necessary ground work like properly managed teams such as City, Bayern and Madrid, we would not be chasing Sancho for more than 1 year haggling on price.

Leicester bought Mahrez for less than 1M from a lower tier French team, we all know how good he is at the moment. Playing in the championship does not mean a player is not good. Vardy played in virtually all of the lower tier of English football. I won't be surprised if Benhrama eclipses Sancho in the next 5 years.

You mentioned the use of stop gap players, If Bayern can use the likes of Perisic, Coutinho, and James Rodrigues why can't United do the same? There is nothing wrong with the idea of plugging some holes in a team with older quality players. I hope we won't regret shelling out 120M on Sancho and he ends up changing nothing while other teams snap up other right wingers that perform exceptionally well next year.

We should learn from Barca....
Coutinho, Greizmann and Dembele all over 100M each and they have been unable to take Barca to the next level.

We should just start our permutation without Sancho

LOL. I was never Team Pepe anything. I was actually one of the last people to comment on Pepe on this thread and only put him on a short list of possible buys based on you guys' recommendations.. I don't watch Ligue 1 when PSG is not playing and didn't really know him until you his fanboys said we must buy him by fire by force.

proper groundwork like Madrid ? lol. Wetin work for Uche no the fit work for musa, if Liverpool followed dis line of thought, they would’ve bought Luiz instead of van Dijk.

Benhrama? Man is not even better that adel Tarabt ffs! You clearly haven’t watch sancho, rest.

We just bought dany James from the championship, you want us to go back there again. Na wa o.


You mentioned the use of stop gap players, If Bayern can use the likes of Perisic, Coutinho, and James Rodrigues why can't United do the same?
bcuz all teams aren’t the same. Bayern is now the standard bcuz they just recently won the CL last year it was Liverpool cheesy

there’s everything wrong with signing older players now! Dis is a rebuild job, we are not the finished article yet.


There’s clearly nothing to regret regarding sancho, he’s world class already. They should be no regrets getting world class players especially at a very young age.. 20 goals and 20assists dis past season mention players that put up that numbers last season I’ll wait.

We should learn from Barca....
Coutinho, Greizmann and Dembele all over 100M each and they have been unable to take Barca to the next level.

we should also learn from Madrid. Bcuz kaka flop no mean say them no go buy bale.

He's a wicked player no doubt, but a deal for him looks a bit unrealistic even in the summer, unless we are ready to burn serious money


You should try to watch some Nicolas pepe clips in your spare time

Exactly
Imagine we have players like Sancho, Pepe, Pogba and Rashford /Martial (even though their heads no correct) running at the opposition, with the full backs and Bruno supporting the attack, and Ndidi shielding the defense

Mans can only dream dreams bro

This jambody will be an excellent addition. Imagine you have someone that's not a striker scoring 20+ goals and giving loads of assists. Pepe will definitely do well, quote me

De Gea - 18m (2011)

Wan-Bissaka - 50m
Lindelof - 31m
Maguire - 80m
Shaw - 30m

Fred - 50m
Matic - 35m
Pogba - 89m
Bruno - £47m (Add ons should see it reach 67m)
VDB - 38M

Martial - 57m
James - 15m

You still have Bailly, Dalot, Mata etc...If our squad is shit then it's an expensive shit...

Let's compare to Liverpool

...........................Allison.................................
TAA........ Maguire....... Van Dijk...... Rovertson
..............................Fabinho....................
.......................................Pogba..............
..............................Bruno......................
........ Salah........... Martial.............. Mane...

That's 5 of our players in the team...

Compared to City...

...........................Ederson (Debatable) ......................
Walker.......... Maguire..... Laporte........ Shaw
... Rodri/Gundogan (Matic can easily slot in........
................ KDB..................... Pogba..................
............................ Bruno.............................
......................... Aguero...... Martial................

That's 5 of our players in the team...

Compared to Chelsea...
...................................De Gea......................
Azpi................Lindelof....... Maguire......Shaw........
.......................................Kante................................
............................Bruno..............Pogba..................
.................Pulisic.........Werner.............Martial..........

That's 7 of our players against 5 for Chelsea...

Compared to Arsenal, only Auba, Tierney and maybe Gabriel (Questionable) will make our team...

Compared to Leicester...
Only Vardy, Ndidi, Pereira and maybe Soyuncu will make our team...

Compared to Spurs, only Kane, Son and Alderweireld will make our team...

Argue with the combined teams above and tell me if our squad is really shit or it's our coach that has not been eble to maximize the potentials of the Players we have?

If you even try to place players on the bench, most of our players will earn a place on the bench ahead of other starters for teams like Leicester, Arsnela and Spurs...Only City and Liverpool best us...We even have a better bench than Pool...
