Rumours say 14-year-old wonderkid JJ Gabriel has committed his future to us following a crucial intervention from Jason Wilcox and director of football negotiations Matt Hargreaves

Great news if true.

Red Man

1.) 30 Jun 2025 17:29:33
That is correct Redman, he has committed his future to us and as you rightly point out Jason Wilcox and Matt Hargreaves played a huge part in it.

I know someone at the academy and was told a little while back that the likelihood was he would leave this summer, with every major club in Europe desperately trying to sign him.

I saw his debut for U18s, just a kid, yet he scored his first goal within minutes of coming on. Indeed he has made 3 U18s appearances and played a total of 71 mins and scored 3 goals, one every 24 mins!

The club are very, very keen to try and keep him under the radar as much as possible as they, rightly, do not want to overload him with expectation levels at his age. Indeed, it was noticeable when he came on for his debut that the T. V. commentators did not big him up at all, in fact they just said his name, clearly they did this under order's from above!

One word of caution, he will have another option to leave upon his 16th birthday, so hopefully all goes well for him in the interim. Think he may well be in U18s squad on a regular basis from now on. Whilst he is a phenomenal prospect we all know the number's of youngster's who turn potential into achievement is pretty low so very much finger's crossed for the long term.
One other rated academy prospect 16 yr old Jayden Ngwashi has also agreed a 4 year contract, again despite numerous other offers.

Has to be recognised that the work from Ineos over last 12 mths is the reason he has stayed, the signings made and also the clear opportunities being given into the first team squad.

Not only Diego Leon arriving tomorrow, but also another very highly rated youngster Enzo Kana-Biyik an 18 year old centre forward whose contract with Le Havre is expiring today, again chose us despite others very keen to sign him. It's expected he will be going out on loan to FC Lausanne.

Finally, Jonny Evans has today been appointed as Head of Loans and Pathways, helping to progress the careers of the club's young player's.

The future is bright, it's not orange, it's most definitely RED.

While it is good to see so many prospects, I doubt we will ever see the number come through like 92. If we get 1 or 2 that turn into regular first team players that is a great return on the investment.


3.) 01 Jul 2025 23:21:35
You may well be right Grim, but what made the CO92 so memorable was the fact they all came through at the same time. How many breakthroughs were there the previous 5 years? or the 10 years after after them?

With what we have building in the academy I can certainly see a fairly steady stream of prospects coming through. There is a very clear strategy of investment in top young talent, with the fingerprints of Jason Wilcox all over it.

It should also be remembered that a big objective of this strategy is to produce players who can be sold in the £15m-£20m range, obviously to provide additional funds for investment in the first team squad. Very effective if it can be achieved.

The other day i saw that Munro, a youth centre half who impressed the one time I saw him, had signed his first pro deal. Add to that yesterday, United signed Harley Emsden-James, 16, from Southamptons academy.
We will pay Southampton a £1million compensation fee with a 20 per cent sell-on clause.

Emsden-James is a centre-back said to have physical skills with technical ability on the ball, he could potentially develop into an all-round centre-back with leadership skills.

Red Man

1.) 13 Jun 2025 07:56:31
Great to see us building from within. Personally think quite a few from the youth setup will get opportunity this season.


2.) 13 Jun 2025 09:20:19
Despite all the rubbish that has been going on at the club at senior football level, we certainly seem to be doing well in the youth area. If we can get one youth player regularly in the squad each year and give out a few debuts, we are doing well as a club and I do think it's important to keep the tradition and record of over 4000 games with a youth product in the first team match squad. Sadly they won't all make it at United, but if we can help them get good solid careers in the game then the academy is doing it's job.

I'd be delighted if in 5 years time we had a starting 11 with Heaven, Kukonki, and Emsden-James as defensive options alongside Yoro in the squad, Mantato, Lacey, Ibragimov, Martins in the squad too. Unheard of now but that would be brilliant.

Make of it what you will, but Garnacho has deleted his Twitter account this morning.

Red Man

1.) 05 Jan 2025 13:50:05
I would imagine he's been advised to do so to prevent him from digging his hole any deeper - he does have rather a dim bulb.


2.) 05 Jan 2025 19:35:49
And he stopped coloring his hair, he probably wants to become a footballer again ?.


3.) 05 Jan 2025 20:18:43
He’s also got an assist at Anfield more importantly.


4.) 05 Jan 2025 22:17:57
Garnacho has the talent, but it's whether he has the mentality to make it. He's made some poor decisions and shown his childish tendencies a little too often.

It's harsh, but when you play for Manchester United you have to grow up fast or you'll fade away.

I think he needs better people around him advising him, as many of his faux pas could have easily been avoided if he listened to some sound advice.

I've said previously that he doesn't have a natural spot in this Amorim system based on what he's shown himself to be as a footballer so far. He will need to get his head down (figuratively speaking, on the pitch however he needs to lift his head up) and round out his game. The only place for him is in one of those No.10 roles, but he needs to be more like Messi than Ronaldo I that position. He needs to be creative, hard working and a team player. He needs to learn to link with his team mates better, play for them.

If he does that then he'll become a top player, if not then he'll be gone within two years and risks becoming another Januzaj.

I thought he looked a better today against Liverpool, he played the assist to Amad rather than smash the ball at goal from a tight angle. That was a good decision and showed what he can do if he lifts his head and looks for his teammates.


5.) 06 Jan 2025 06:18:50
Good on him.

He looks a shadow of himself on the pitch at the moment. I hope it's a "full focus on football" type of choice.

If I were a professional footballer, i'd have no social media whatsoever.


6.) 07 Jan 2025 02:26:51
Liverpool fan in peace here and I think it is a good sign that Garnacho has deleted his social media accounts. I always found him to be a good prospect for you lot but he seems to have lost his way a bit since the start of the season. It didn't help that the fans and media were building him up to be the main man in the team, which understandably contributed to him developing a bit of a big head. Hopefully this is a sign that he is putting his head down and is working hard on himself again.


 

 

18 Oct 2024 06:59:15
Rumour is that ETH is keen to sign midfielder Frenkie de Jong, 27, in January as he attempts to rebuild his midfield. Not again, please

If the new board gives in to this nonsense I will lose a bit of faith in them. Stop pandering to the manager turning us into a dutch Ajax B team. I hope it's like Wesley Schneider who never turned up.

However, we could do with a magician in the club, Dynamo would be best and make the manager disappear.

Red Man

1.) 18 Oct 2024 08:09:54
Hopefully he does sign him in January along with Antony.


2.) 18 Oct 2024 10:07:04
I doubt due to wages he wouldn't be an option now but I'd have him all day long. Not had a midfielder that controls a game since the days of Scholesy. I imagine we'll end up with Gomes or Ward-Prowse.


3.) 18 Oct 2024 10:45:21
A healthy a FDJ is a superb player and will have many suitors. I can see city and many other top teams lining up. He would vastly improve us so no issues from me if he came.

Unfortunately he seems to keep injuring the same ankle so its just another click bait story imo.


4.) 19 Oct 2024 06:53:27
Red man, it's Wilcox who wants him.


5.) 19 Oct 2024 12:40:07
Angel

Is it?

A 27 year old, with injury issues, doesn’t seem to fit with everything we we were told about the direction of the club on signings. Looks nearer to a Casemiro type signing.

We need someone to score goals.


6.) 20 Oct 2024 14:59:21
Red Man, you make 27 sound ancient! A midfielder at 27 should be in their prime. Can't compare with the Cas signing. The injuries, fair enough. But 27, c'mon mate ?.


 

 

05 May 2024 18:09:44
Maguire injured in training and out for 3 weeks apparently. Another training injury.

Red Man

1.) 05 May 2024 18:20:58
I think he's been playing injured for quite some time.


2.) 05 May 2024 18:21:55
Just posted that. Surely someone has to be looking at our training methods, the amount of muscle injuries is a total joke.


3.) 05 May 2024 20:06:39
Does anyone remember that up until a recent point, the length and type of injury was never disclosed?

And now the media machine is in overdrive, things have become a lot more detailed ?.


4.) 06 May 2024 07:13:09
Might mean that Louis Jackson gets his chance.


5.) 06 May 2024 11:40:33
Other clubs have suffered similar injury issues when they have had a manager trying to introduce a high energy pressing style.

The thought is that you need to increase the players fitness and stamina and the only way to do that is to train at a high level over a long period of time to raise base level fitness.

Teams that have done this have tended to suffer a season of excessive injuries, before the players were conditioned to have the stamina and base fitness required to play a high pressing style.

Given EtH's comments at the start of the season of wanting to turn us into the best transitional team in the world, along with occasional comments about the intensity of training, and our injuries this season it does sound like we are training to raise base fitness and stamina of the squad, which will be contributing to the injuries.

If we are to commit to a high energy, transitional style then these injuries are just part of the growing pains that we will have to endure to get there.

Hopefully next season then players will be better conditioned because of this season and less prone to injuries, while those not suited to that style should hopefully be moved on and replaced with players suited to that style.

Of course that depends on whether the manager will be here next season and that style is the style the new owners/ club structure wants us to play moving forward.

From the outside looking in it looks like EtH tried to introduce this style at the start of last season, but quickly realised he didn't have the players to play it, so he went more pragmatic. Over the summer he looked to make changes to the squad and decided to commit to this style of play. According to the man himself part of his remit when he was hired was to impart this style of play on the squad. Last season they accepted the limitations and a more pragmatic approach, but with the intention of planning for and moving towards this direction this season.

EtH seems to have just followed through with the plan agreed between him and the club. He's taking the short term pain on the chin this season with a view on the long term gains.

It would be a shame if he doesn't get the chance to see through these plans, but if the new club structure doesn't align with this direction then it's best to end things sooner rather than later.

Personally as a fan I prefer a higher energy more transitional style over a slower possession based approach. I feel it's more entertaining to watch and is more closely aligned to the style of play I associate with Manchester United.

Yet that is just my opinion, and ultimately it is the opinion of the new owners and the new people being put in key positions at the club that will ultimately decide the direction of the club. My job as a supporter isn't to fight against it if they don't do what I want, but to support the club in this new direction. Whatever that may be.

Amidst the gloom I will be interested to see whether 17 year old Ibragimov takes a step up this season. He is coming to that age where physically and mentally kids can take a step up. He has always played above his standard and sooner or later one of the kids is going to make it, is it going to be him? Very highly thought of all through his time with us.

Red Man

1.) 07 Jul 2025 21:14:22
Exactly Red Man, get this deal done, get him on the US tour and then start working hard on shifting players out, try and get some money in for a decent CF and GK.

A new front three that can put the ball in the net and a competent GK that can keep it out might just give Amorim a fighting chance.


2.) 07 Jul 2025 21:20:15
Sorry wrong thread should have gone on the one below think I’ve posted enough for one day. Let’s see if we can get anything done before the US tour next week.


3.) 07 Jul 2025 23:38:29
Let's hope so Redman. Along with Lacey, Vitek, Moorhouse, Obi, Heaven, Leon, they are all to be given the opportunity for exposure to the first team, and not loaned out. Loan out the deadwood that refuse to leave. I get that they can refuse to go on loan also, but some will have a dream of the world cup on the horizon, so maybe that will force them to make a choice.


4.) 08 Jul 2025 09:01:33
If we rely on kids, we probably get relegated. Epl is very competitive now Nd we don't really have the experienced leaders to bring them through.


5.) 08 Jul 2025 11:13:33
I'm happy to see talented players like this wait. In recent years I feel like too much burden has been placed on young players.


6.) 08 Jul 2025 14:06:16
RA clearly thinks Obi not ready yet, he had perfect opportunity to play him more last season but chose not too. we tried the potential with Rasmus, look what they gave us.
Heaven is probably the best shout out of those youngsters, Leon seems to be talking like he is Roberto Carlos, so let’s hope he can back that up!


 

 

04 Jul 2025 12:59:59
I understand the players return to training on Monday, the first pre-season friendly is against Leeds on 19 July in Stockholm, two weeks.

At the moment Cunha apart we have not done business at anywhere near the level we needed to. This summer was where the club should have given Amorim the players he wanted and needed in training. He said it was vital to have time with players pre season. It starts on Monday.

I felt the 1st July was a watershed, a point when the finances refreshed, yet the same stalemate remains. I am just starting to grow concerned the club are not being decisive. If MBueno is an important one and it's an extra £3m then be decisive. One player in and the four problems still there is not decisive. It is starting to feel a bit like other summers and it's now time to see movement.

Red Man

1.) 04 Jul 2025 14:45:31
I think you're right on inbounds Red Man, but we are reliant on others to ship people out, we see Newcastle offering big money for Elanga, whilst we have 4 wingers we can't shift. Hopefully, as some struggle to get their first choices, they may turn to Rashforrd, Sancho, Garnacho, or even Antony.


2.) 04 Jul 2025 16:24:59
Lots of clubs would take those wingers mentioned. But there are only a couple of non Saudi clubs who pay the kind of stupid wages we’ve given those players.

If they were all on £75k a week, I’d imagine those players would have already left.

I believe all football contracts should be capped at a maximum of something like £80k a week, with them topped up by bonus payments, I. e. make the squad, make the team, play a game, score or assist etc. If a player wants £300k a week, then they better perform to get it. Never happen though.


3.) 05 Jul 2025 08:15:30
You can decisively do nothing RedMan.


4.) 05 Jul 2025 09:26:41
Redman players need to be sold before we buy.
Rashford not an easy sell
Sancho not an easy sell
Malacia not an easy sell
Casimero not an easy sell
Garnacho not an easy sell at the price we want and need.
Rasmus not an easy sell
Onana a very hard sale.
We can't even pay them off or give them away. We need to comply with psr and competion rules.
Im surprised at your lack of understanding for the situation I expect that from other posters. We are hamstrung and these outs are difficult to navigate.
Even if we sign mbeumo without shifting 1 or 2 of the above and then can't we are in the world of trouble.
I believe there are a couple of ins lined up for when we shift our misfits like rashford sancho garnacho etc.
No point stamping feet without having a strong understanding of v the situation.
The here and now fans are getting rattled i expect more from the more mature and educated fan.
Understanding the why is fundamental before slamming any situation. Not everybody has the ability and knowledge to understand the why but I believe you do which is why I'm surprised by your post.
We can't buy before we sell or we really could end up in a world of trouble.


5.) 05 Jul 2025 16:11:09
Ken is that one of the most condescending post you have written to RedMan or what!


6.) 05 Jul 2025 17:56:27
Not condescending at all. Redman is not backwards in coming forward with his opinions but usually takes all the circumstances into account and usually doesn't post on his emotions. I don't think he has been as condors in this past and it surprised me.
I think we are all a little frustrated by delays to out going g sales.
The players we want to move on hold most of the cards as to perspective buyers. We can't just take huge hits and buy at the same time. Its a really tricky balancing act and i'd imagine its very difficult for those trying to maximise what we can do o ins and outs.


7.) 06 Jul 2025 08:02:39
Hi Ken

Yes I am very financially astute and understand the impact of regulations. We have got ourselves into a mess and I am delighted with RA for taking what appears to be decisive action.

My point is that training starts tomorrow and little has changed. No there are no easy sales but it depends whether the club are holding out for unrealistic amounts.

I have concerns that RA will struggle with what we have and won’t get leeway for the late arrival of any reinforcements.


8.) 06 Jul 2025 10:06:04
Its not ideal and i take that point redmanand agree with it but and its a huge but, its not that simple.
Clubs have made no offers for anybody yet.
Rash at 40m is not excessive imo
Malacia no offers we would take anything i'd imagine
Onana who would buy him at any price and he didn't want to leave.
Casimero a bit like above unless he fancies Saudi
Rasmus likewise
Sancho is 20m too much?
Garna nobody made an offer of any description.
We are asking what we need to to break even as we can't take his or it will cause us issues with psr.
Its a chicken and egg situation not easy.
Let's hope they can get a bit done this week.
We can force players to move and we can't afford to take hits.
Bit of a conundrum.


9.) 06 Jul 2025 11:02:48
Agree Ken

Horrendous mess. Malacia was bought when we had Alvaro who could potentially be worth £50m, Antony when Elanga is now being valued at £55m. I took stick on here for saying Casemiro was the wrong choice, and said we should have gone for Ousman Dembele instead of Sancho again to be dismissed.

Surprised at Garnacho but if club ask £70m it’s not helpful

RA must be given time in what has been an utter shambles. He wanted preseason to get his ideas into the players, starts tomorrow.

Some on here have dismissed the impact of the Glazers, say they have made money available, even though they have not put one cent into the club. Let's have a reminder, after the latest accounts, of their impact

The BBC say £1.2 Billion in 20 years.
£815m in debt interest repayments; £166m in dividends to shareholders; £197m in external net debt repayments and £10m in management and administration fees to the Glazer family companies has left the club since the Glazers bought it in June 2005. I think it's more because it doesn't mention the £35m they made the club pay so they could sell to SJR, or all the debt costs when loans were changed to bonds.

How anyone can support those leeches is beyond me.

Red Man

1.) 07 Jun 2025 11:07:13
That's all true but had they hired competent football management we would not also have wasted £1bn in the transfer market. I've been against the Glazers and the leveraged buyout from day 1, but it is nonetheless the case that it was Woodward and his team that wasted available resources on bang average players, overpaid wages for new players and contract extensions, hired too many people, and failed to update scouting and analytics etc. Had that £1bn been spent well we would not be in the position we are in today despite the debt repayments and dividends. The Glazers biggest failure was their appointment of Woodward to run the club and then sticking with him.


2.) 07 Jun 2025 12:08:03
Red Man you keep banging that drum but I'm not sure who you think you're going to convince.

I've not seen anyone actually supporting the Glazers on here. Every single poster to a man I think feels they have been nothing but a stain on our club and the reason for our decline.

The debt is in no way beneficial to the club, sometimes debt can be, but not in this case as it hasn't added anything to the club such as a new stadium.

While the Glazers mismanagement of the club has lead to the degradation of the clubs facilities due to a lack of investment and maintenance, they have always made money available for transfers and wages. Unfortunately this has been spent awfully by the very people the Glazers chose to put in charge.

That isn't a defence of them, but a non-bias reflection of their ownership.

Personally I feel that allowing the club to spend so much money frivolously also counts against them. No doubt that the one area they have allowed the club to spend heavily in is the one area that the majority of fans care most about, and curtain tailing fan unrest probably played a large part in that decision to spend on players rather than infrastructure.

While they might not have the expertise to run a football club, they must have surely seen that the club was being run poorly and declining over many years but chose not to step in or investigate. There was nothing stopping them hiring football club consultants to assess what was going wrong at the club so they could correct it. But they didn't, they don't care enough to do so. They allowed people who kept failing at their job of running the club to stay in power.

They have been awful owners, and I don't think you'll find any Manchester United fans who genuinely feel different. So what are you hoping to achieve with these regular posts against them?


3.) 07 Jun 2025 13:23:06
Absolutely right Shappy. Redman, you are conflating people accepting the situation we're in with the ownership and hoping for some competency within it with some tacit approval of the ownership. Shawthing I think nailed what most of us feel.


4.) 07 Jun 2025 16:07:58
I think our scouting was actually pretty good. We found and recommended many if the low cost stars that came into the prem. It was our management team that decided not to sign them, instead prioritising expensive stars that would sell shirts.


5.) 08 Jun 2025 09:34:47
It pays to remind ourselves that up to £1.5Bn has disappeared, most of the cost of the new stadium. We start the financial year with a debt that makes it more difficult to borrow to fund infrastructure, the £60m a year in interest is basically a signing like Cunha we can’t make.

Why post, because some on here post they deserve their dividends, they put money in the club (false), they have bought players for the club (false) . Yes they have also made terrible decisions yet are now multi billionaires on the back of the club.

They are still here, helped by SJR to stay. Why post, because they are still here, waiting to take dividends again, to leech from our once great club. We wanted to be up with Real Madrid, yet watched £1.2Bn disappear and got nothing in return. Pays to remember and realise this pain is ongoing.


 

 

22 May 2025 22:44:54
A few years ago a few of us speculated whether we would accept relegation to get rid of the Glazers. We have seen this season, us get as close to that as we would like to go. However, the Glazer leeches are presently sat there with no golden goose Champions league cash cow, no European football next season and can see the need to spend money to even get closer to it. Will they be able to get the dividends they crave anytime soon? . Will the dividends, if any, be large enough?

Is this the near miss and potential future cash shortage that actually makes the Glazer leeches consider selling up in full. Could we get a benevolent owner who pays the debt off, let's us trade without the noose round our necks. If so, if they sell and we get a benevolent owner, what a great season it would have been.

They want to rake in money from the regeneration and new stadium. Why would they leave? They are making a fortune and it doesn't even matter if we are un successful. Shirt sales will still be strong next year. Amorims jumper sells out while the team is sinking. Full stadium.


3.) 23 May 2025 01:37:36
Oh so not the system this time, let’s blame the Glazers, you wanted SJR you got him, now he is problem too, someone new comes in and things on pitch don’t go right, let’s blame them.
Glazers gave 600 million to ETH he blew the lot and not one player any good, the Glazers have always released funds for players, ok the accounts don’t make good reading, but it’s business and really that makes not much difference to the performances on the pitch.
There are problems at the club, but thinking oh get the Glazers out and they all go away is just plain ridiculous.


4.) 23 May 2025 02:14:47
Fair point Red Man. The footballing side of Utd has been poor this season and income would definitely drop for your club without European football to play next season. But Utd are still a cash cow in of itself and I'm not sure they have fully squeezed it dry yet. As long as there remains money to be made for themselves, I think they'd stay.


5.) 23 May 2025 06:14:23
The only money the Glazers can take out of Utd is in dividends, and those are now only paid when we make a profit, which over the last few years hasn’t happened, and is unlikely over the next few, especially if there is a stadium to pay for.

The value for the Glazers is now only what they can sell it for, they wanted a record amount for a sporting club, they will not get that in its current state, so while financial it costs them nothing to just sit in Florida and wait, they will expect their stooge SJR to do all the dirty work and he is daft enough to do it.


6.) 23 May 2025 06:53:54
Germansuppclub

You like to quote on past quotes on here, however, above you said “ you wanted SJR you got him, now he is problem too”. You are very very very wrong. I wanted the Sheikh, made that very clear on here. I called SJR the rat for enabling the Glazers to stay.

If you seriously don’t think the Glazers have done serious damage to this club then business wise you are clueless. The debts have been a millstone round our necks for over 20 years. We suffer PSR issues and one major issue is the debt costing £60m a year to service.

You said the Glazers gave ETH money, clueless. The Glazers have not put one cent into the club, not one. The club gave ETH money whilst those slithering leeches have made Billions. I have been consistently anti Glazer since they arrived because I understood the financial implications of the transaction. I have said the same since I came on here 15 years ago. You need to better understand what they have done.


7.) 23 May 2025 07:01:10
Not the old everything would be rosy without the Glazers again the same Glazers who spent nearly 700 million for the last dummy in the dugout was it the Glazers fault he opted to play with no midfield? I couldn't care less about them taking dividends i'd do the same its a business not a charity. I only care about the action on the pitch which has been garbage under TH and worse under Amo a lot of clubs would be buzzing with the Glazers as owners giving unlimited funds to every dummy they hire if only they could pick a good manager maybe time fans looked at the players and managers making a fool of them with there ridiculous chat get on there backs instead of giving them a free pass waving the daft green and gold yes they're not good owners but could be a lot worse me personally i blame Amos 1 dimensional ideas for this seasons disaster he'd best get of to a good start nxt yesr or be bye bye.

Brum boi, grow up! The Glazers have not spent a single penny/ dime of their own money. Wake up and smell the coffee boi!

Red Man, it's a wonderful dream but I wake up and nothing has changed. But one can dream.

Red man your just being facetious, ok under the Glazers we have spent money, I am fully aware it’s not there own money…. and quite frankly please don’t get all personal and derogatory stating I am clueless in business, plus get of your high horse for one minute I made a comment in general, it did not mention your name, so was not directed directly to you, but if you want to see it that way then fine.
Did ETH not spend 600 million, was the Glazers not in overall control of the business which is United, think you will find both those 100% YES is every player ETH bought under his stewardship as your being so pedantic all useless and all not suited to the team or league…. probably yes

So take a breath and think first.

German, why the need fight the world with every post? We're all on the same side.

Fizz they've spent a fortune on players 2nd highest wage bill in the league they've allowed rotten managers to rip the soul out of the club tho lower expectations till avoiding relagation is seen as a tidy season i wish they would sell as well get a proper ambitious board in place but let's be honest there hopeless so how can the managers they pick be any better lucky bag finds TH Ole Amo we stick by them as well like the world will end if we sack them hoping blindly time and hundreds of millions will turn them in to Ancelloti its no happening these guys are chancers clowns who no serious club would touch with a bargepole shouldve got Southgate good steady hand if he'd got say Belgium to numerous finals/ semis while introducing young players like Bellingham Saka while having a sexy foreign name UTD fans wouldve been creaming there pants over him.

Is it tho were fans not sending petitions to the board demanding TH got kept after the FA Cup win totes forgetting the awful league and CL campaign the bars constantly lowered for these hipster managers who apparently need years and hundreds of millions spent before they can show anything i just get a bit sick of it these managers drain me want someone wholl hit the ground running that man is the Southgate best England manager since Sir Alf tine to go back to basics tried these trendy foreign non entities who think they're reinventing the wheel with there daft systems time near bankrupted us now wer back at square 1 another rebuild another wasted few seasons to see this fella in action get Gareth u no it makes sense stable hand nice guy no mad systems we needed him last year we need more now after near getting relagated.

Would we be on TV with this before or after Love Island or perhaps on the Disney channel, after all, didn’t Woodward idea say we were like Disney when trying to recruit Klopp?

Let’s watch arguments and bickering and club being shown as turmoil, dragged through dirt because that is what they would portray. At this difficult time it would be ridiculous to sell our soul for 30 pieces of silver, to see the latest dirt smearing on TV.

Amorim is spot on, none of this nonsense, be a serious club at this time. When they come to do it one day, show the Directors trying to negotiate the MBueno deal.

Pope is an interesting rumour but it is vital we have a better keeper immediately. Martinez is a far better keeper than Onana, that's Emi not Lisandro but Lisandro is also better than Onana.

We need players who want to play for the club. If someone prefers Spurs then bye. That simple.

If that was aimed at me, I recall we could sign good players in the seventies and eighties before SAF. The red shirt means something even when we are in the doldrums. Yes our history.

Can you really see Vardy at OT with his wife trying to lord it over the Rooney family? Remember there are Rooney kids in the academy. Don’t want Vardy anywhere near and not worried the club are THAT stupid.

If MBueno says he has had enough and from that we have let him down, goes to Spurs, heads must roll. No spin saying we were never interested would be believable.

We got into this mess giving Rashford, a phlegmatic character a huge wage. His attitude will impact others. Must go and no redemption.

The main reason we were so poor in the last couple of seasons is lack of goals. We cannot go another season without one. That simple.

Get a really good No9, GK, CM plus complete MBueno and I think we may not get there but would flirt with top four or five. As it is now, top ten is a big ask.
