From reading the posts our summer could look like this.
Qualify for CL.
Compete to win EL
Ole to continue his work.
Target sancho and grealish for attack
Other positions will be dependent on departures and finances
Players the club will actively look to sell or are open to offers on appear to be. Jones rojo smalling lingard sanchez periera mata dalot.
Unknowns
Ddg or henderson?
Romero may look to leave
Pogba stay or go? Looks like stay at this point.
Ighalo stay after jan?
Loans for the Inbetweeners chong garner henderson levitt laird.
DOF. who knows.
That's in its broadest terms how i see our summer. Let's hope that it all runs as smooth as possible
My big hopes if the above accurate is that we win the EL and gets Ole his core targets and go again next season and get a hot start. The EL does provide the players with a great pre season opportunity.
We need to be 20 points better off next season to compete and hope the others drop off a bit.

The next transfer window is absolutely crucial.

Ed002 said United have pile of cash. Hopefully we spend it wisely and close the gap at the top.

{Ed002's Note - It comes from not paying debts that are due.}

Ed i understand if you would rather not answer. Are the glazers or club got any plans to pay off the debt of is it a case of just refinancing the current debt when needed paying interest
Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - They are working on it but this year is an exception.}

That sounds like we might have some money to spend this year but next year we might have to be a little more frugal.

I can't see United doing many deals. 7 and 11 shirts are vacant. Grea11sh seems a good marketing thing.

Only problem is that woody can only do one thing at a time. And likes to take his time to get them "right".

If Henderson comes back then Romero will leave I think, he might be okay being second choice but he is far too good to be third choice.

For me the issues we need to solve this summer are in no particular order:

Who is No.1 next season, DDG or Henderson.

Who is Harry Maguire's CB partner, are they at the club or do we need to bring someone in.

Sign a top quality Right Winger. Sancho, or someone else.

Squad depth, particularly in creative midfield. We have no cover what so ever for Pogba. While the back up for Bruno is poor (Lingard, Mata and Pereira) there are players there. Plus we could possibly bring Mejbri in if really needed. Yet the cover for Pogba are defensive midfielders and not creative options. I'd love to see us sign someone like Donny van de Beek as he could offer quality cover for BOTH Bruno and Pogba.

Shappy, are you van de beek's agent or perhaps his mum? I think that's the 1,839th time you said utd should sign him.

If I had my way;

DDG out, Deano back in.
A top class CB in alongside Maguire, who is world class and available obvs an issue.
Pogba out, Saul in.
Grealish in
Sancho in
Somehow sell or release Smalling, Jones, Rojo, Sanchez, Lingard, Andreas.

I wouldn't give WRD the job cooky. The power will go to his head😂.

Fair enough Shappy, I'm just messing around. From the way you describe him he does sound like a good option. Which means we probably won't sign him.
