well Sangaré won't be coming to the premier league that's for sure now


he renewed his contract at PSV until 2027

his main reason: playing under Van Nistelrooy ICON



he could've earned loads at Newcastle but club love is stronger for him it seems

What else can they do? Lukaku was piss poor and Timo tried hard but he just wasn't cut out for the PL and Chelsea's style of play.

Simply stop buying players that don't suit your system same reason Utd fails, buy any play who does well without thinking how they suit the system

Every club has to take risks. How does any team/manager know a player wont fit into his system if he doesn't try?

Don't compare Chelsea to Utd, Chelsea always have (in the past 18 years) had a very solid structure. If sign a big money player, which we have, and they fail, we still wont crumble, like Utd, because we have a good base.

Also, you are in no position to question Chelsea on taking punts on strikers who turn out to be flops. Liverpool have had their fair share in the past.

1 player is a risk constantly doing it becomes a habit and the fact is all their big signings over the years have flopped, trying to get rid of atleast £200m worth of attackers which will bring about £50m a £70m plus keeper being shipped out on loan other players whose values have halved, spending big then selling for half the price isn't a sustainable way of working especially under American owners who will eventually stop spending money.

Under Klopp we have only made 1 bug money error in Keita all the rest have been working

[Denver]

Utd panic buying again, they are trying to sign Marco Arnutovic, the 33 free year old former Stoke and West Ham striker who has a bad reputation

[bitontheslide]

United have obviously run out of cash because their activity in this transfer window has been almost non existent. From last season, they needed to dump most of their players and do a complete rebuild, but for some inexplicable reason they haven't and I don't think that was under the managers control

Barcelona are in big trouble, they have been caught making fraudulent accounts to make their books looks healthy when they didn't have the money in the first place and will now be forced to pay £35m tax on money that didn't exist.

They also threatened De Jong with legal action if he didn't take a massive pay cut

if they take down Barcelona, Barcelona will bring down entire La Liga with them to expose more clubs of corruption

so the spanish FA cannot do anything against them or else their top level league will no longer exist anymore

[bitontheslide]

Barcelona havent been able to register their new players because they don't have enough cash apparently

[Nicky91]

well they now sold Neto to Bournemouth anyway, good on him with light of the upcoming world cup, for his chances to try and lock in a place in Brazil's squad

and once Frenkie is gone, that'll also clear up some space, and as for frenkie 30m, well Frenkie needs to learn to read between the lines of the contract before signing it

small letters are oh so important these days

[Nicky91]

could've been bonusses and if you don't succeed with those expectations well you don't get anything

its that simple, you can go to court but i might be proven right here, no i am always right lol

Manchester United have made a surprise enquiry about former Manchester City winger Leroy Sane’s availability as boss Erik ten Hag continues to assess his attacking options.

Sane hasn’t had the smoothest of times since returning to Germany in 2020 to join Bayern Munich. And the arrival this summer of Sadio Mane from Liverpool has raised questions about how much playing time he will get this season.

--------------------------------------------

Looks like yesterdays result has given them a swift kick in the ass

[Cherie]

Don’t United have anyone coming through the youth ranks

United used to be pretty good at winning things with kids, also their scouting seems way off as they seem to focus on golden oldies rather than looking out emerging talent

[bitontheslide]

i dont think they are doing any scouting, the names mentioned have all been around for years, there is nothing on emerging talent which is the scouts job to find

Now Sane, that would be huge for them. I highly rate Sane.

Manchester United’s pursuit of Marko Arnautovic is no more.

The Red Devils stunned fans and pundits alike at the weekend when news of their opening £7.6m bid for the former West Ham and Stoke forward, 33, first emerged.

That offer was rejected by Bologna, though reports have suggested that United will return to the Serie A outfit with a second approach.

However, The Athletic now claim that will not be happening after such a strong fan backlash against the move.
