I dont understand why the club havent moved on. I assumed FDJ has given ETH the assurance he's interested in a move but this is embarassing now. Really need to move on.


"Deadline" is Friday apparently. :duck:

It's either Tielemans, who I don't think Man Utd want to do business with after ripping themselves off for Maguire.
Or Neves, who Wolves want nearly 75 Mil for.

Honestly having to keep Ronaldo is a much bigger blow than not getting Frenkie. Arnold and Murtough should be flying to every club in the world offering man up for free.

Getting him out is far more crucial to our rebuild at this point.

I agree with this since he has made it clear that he wants out. I did think if he was all in he would have been a great asset for this season for ETH.

Great asset if he didn't take over absolutely everything because of who he is. This summer was meant to be about EtH's rebuild, now it's about Ronaldo.(the way he wants it)

If EtH drops him(which i assume he'll have the balls to do), literally everything will be about him not playing. He'll throw strops, have his agent leak stuff. He's just not worth the hassle anymore imo.

And that's before we even get on to the problems on the pitch with him playing, which are numerous.

Because they don't have anyone else to move on to. Every single transfer target has been a ETH request, these dumbfukks haven't scouted or shortlisted anybody.

The writing was on the wall with the whole Ralf Rangnick fiasco. They refused to sign anyone in January, despite obvious to everybody gaping holes in midfield and attack. The excuse was that since he is interim it made no sense to 'waste' money before new manager is hired.

Well then what the fukk is the point of having a DoF, deputy DoF, sporting director, technical director and a whole board if you have no philosophy and no clue how to build a team independent of a manager. Not to mention that none of them even knew who Nkunku was.

Title of Director of Football at United is just an illusion to create an image of a properly run club. When in fact director of football at Manchester United is just a glorified negotiatior/lawyer.

Chelsea get Koulibaly. feels like they should have signed him on atleast 3 different opportunities. Great player though. interesting to see how he gets on in the premier league.:ehh:

He's an upgrade on Ruidger and Christensen. :manny:

Barcelona’s squad composition makes no sense. They’re loaded with forwards but have very little depth/balance for the rest of the team. I can’t see them being challengers even with the additions they’ve made so far.

Looks like it's still the same situation regarding deferred money Barca owes him :manny:
