      I’m baffled United willingly paid the money Ajax were paying.

      I absolutely refuse to believe that there wasn’t some other left-footed winger they could have gotten for a fraction of the price.

    I think the Glazers are obviously a massive part of why United are as poor as they right now, but my word, that is a shocking list of signings.

    This list seems like a pretty damning indictment of the club’s scouting department, their negotiations team and their manager, because almost none of these have done anything worth talking about.

    Feel like ten Hag can’t keep being pushed to the side for a little bitch about the Glazers for too long. He’s had money to spend and he’s personally hand-picked like 95% of this list, if not more.

    I count about…3 useful players on that list, one of them being Casemiro who’s aging and with years of long intensive campaigns with Madrid on his back, which puts in to question how long he’ll remain useful for

      I’ve joked about him coming back on loan but Onana probably turns out good for them in the end. He started the same way with us, a bit shaky but as he became more familiar with the team he was great.

      I don’t think he’ll be as good as he was at Inter because our team is far better and the defence is far more capable of having the ball played to them from Onana.
