Sancho wants 10m to walk. When has he run? It got smacked me that a lad with great talent is not aiming for higher and more in life.

I feel sorry for his family and kids because school and social life means he is the laughing stock for centuries. Wait till his children start asking questions.

We pay him £13m a year, why would we pay him £10m to walk away.
Keep him on the books and make him do promotional work around the world hosting fan forums for 12 months, let’s see how long he lasts.


2.) 20 Aug 2025 20:20:26
Including the amortization cost of the last 10 months of his contract of about £12m he's going to cost us 80% of his £13m salary. So around £22m in total. You would think most clubs are going to steer clear of a players who has been rejected by United and Chelsea and who, rather than grasp an offer to play football somewhere, would prefer to sit on his arse for the next 10 months. Itv would be worth it for United to sell him for £20m and cover 1/ 2 the remaining salary commitment, but a player who was highly touted, was once considered to be of international quality, can't even command a £20m transfer.


3.) 21 Aug 2025 06:45:08
All this about Sancho, are we talking the same player that Shappy said was so good and along with Onana was the missing part of the ETH master plan of a jog saw with his intricate play, speed and precision…. was going to take us to the moon…. how did that go!

Was always a waste of time even at Dortmund and everywhere he been, the red flags were there, still we were stupid enough to give him a contract so all of our own making and he milking that.
No principles or honesty in football.


4.) 21 Aug 2025 10:18:27
That stalker is back Shappy, he knows what you said well before he had an account, creepy at best.


5.) 21 Aug 2025 13:59:14
If he’ll walk for 10m I suspect he has somewhere to walk to. Hopefully they will offer him 4m see what happens.


6.) 21 Aug 2025 15:11:20
GDS, I have been able to read for far too many years! Is that difficult for you to grasp…. Clearly is! So carry on.


7.) 21 Aug 2025 18:03:14
Eth didn't sign sancho. He inherited him. i'm no eth fan but we can't blame him on sancho.


8.) 21 Aug 2025 20:03:29
Sancho appeared a good signing on paper, shame his talent never made it off the page.


 

 

10 Aug 2025 15:51:11
Take with a pinch of salt but it's on X that Rasmus is leaving on loan. He refused but has been told to go as playing time will be vastly limited

Good news if true.

Reddevilfan

1.) 10 Aug 2025 18:33:47
Makes sense to loan him out for a loan fee + his wages covered. No one is going to pay the amortized value of his transfer cost. This way we won't have to book a capital loss.


 

 

23 Jun 2025 22:20:47
Rumours that United have accepted a bid for Sanch from Napoli?

Scott MacT is on £90k per week and V Osihmen gets £162k per week so I doubt sancho will accept the wages Napoli offer.

Reddevilfan

1.) 23 Jun 2025 23:14:30
Osimhen £162k pw, I think not, it's well documented he is on circa £400,000k pw at present, the figure he is also demanding from us!

Seemingly he has stated he is not looking for a pay rise from us.

Suspect it will all prove irrelevant as AL Hilal have come back for him with an increased offer of £34,000,000 per annum, that's £653,000pw. Hard to turn away from that kind of dough.


2.) 23 Jun 2025 23:45:41
If he wants the money more than playing for us let Osimhen go simple.


3.) 24 Jun 2025 00:16:40
Quite so Salford, can't see us giving him £400k pw anyway, so would mean him taking a pay cut, don't see that happening.

Only player I know who took a pay CUT to come to us is M De Ligt. (Goes up when we get ECL qualification) However, show's a terrific attitude and desire to join us. He was of course at Bayern, so was already at massive club, he just wanted to play regularly. Well done him!


4.) 24 Jun 2025 05:19:07
Sadly, it’s difficult to see him leaving on a permanent deal. And why would he? If he stays, he continues to earn a ridiculous wage for one more season and then gets a nice £10m+ signing on fee next summer after leaving on a free. We’ll almost certainly allow him to leave on loan to recoup some of his wages, so it’s a win-win for him.

Personally, I’d like to see us take the L and force him to play with the reserves this season. Dock his wages every time he’s late and then sack him after it’s happened enough times. Allowing him to call the shots makes the club’s leadership look like clowns.


5.) 24 Jun 2025 05:56:53
Redseven, nothing to do with us looking like clowns, there is such a thing as employment law/ contracts/ rights basically Sancho is in driving seat, it just comes down to pride and if he wants to be playing, not much else!

Deligt playing regularly, you mean when he is not injured, plus we allowed him to bring the fridge he carries around on his back with him!


6.) 24 Jun 2025 10:27:12
De Ligt played 29 out of 38 league games last season, I think we get that you don’t like or rate him Maze but you don’t need to say it constantly or make out his injuries are far worse than they are.


7.) 24 Jun 2025 12:59:53
I want our trophy back.

Osimhen is currently earning just over £160,000 per week. He is reported to be looking for significantly more money. This is why he is looking for a transfer, and why he hasn’t found a buyer.

My suspicion is that he would prefer to stay in Europe, and his agent is trying to see if anyone will double his wages here. If not, he’ll be off to Saudi.

Shame because he’s a good player, but his wage demands would undermine the club’s attempt to change its broken wage structure.


8.) 24 Jun 2025 13:25:02
Osimhen is pie in the sky. A shame, I'd love to see him in the Prem, he's a really exciting player. But unless the likes of Chelsea are prepared to give him what he wants (I doubt it, given just like us they've taken steps to sort out their wage structure), he'll be off to Saudi where they'll pay him handsomely.


9.) 24 Jun 2025 17:01:34
I read the Napoli offer was two players in part-ex. Other than Osimhen, who do they have that fits the system?


10.) 25 Jun 2025 20:57:20
Osimhen is apparently on 10m euros a year and is willing to join us for no pay rise .

let me check YouTube, Ahmad!


3.) 22 Aug 2024 21:08:44
He's been good at the under 17 world cup apparently.


4.) 22 Aug 2024 21:33:14
It seems that Christopher Vivell, new director of recruitment, has a hand in this. He previously had roles at RB Leipzig and Salzburg, apparently they have a connection with Guidars.
Time will tell if this works or not, seemingly he is a defensive midfielder.
Will be a big cultural change for the lad, wish him good luck and hope he makes it.

I watched some of the U17 world cup but mostly Argentina and France. The Argentinian guy city signed is a really good player and gets your attention. I did not watch any of the Mali games.


8.) 23 Aug 2024 13:20:02
Shappy - It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair. But it was also the summer transfer window that we welcomed Sékou Koné to the club. I remember watching him running in Mali in the care free days of his youth … *3,000 words later* - he probably should be ready for a loan next summer.


9.) 23 Aug 2024 13:52:09
?? very good Danny.
It might rain but it might not rain if the sun comes out. But it might only be out for a short period if it goes back in again it might rain.
However if the wind gets up it could be windy so hang your washing out but look out for the rain in case the sun doesn't come out.

Not UTD related but Manager related

So Forest played some great football last season and the owner and nuno had beef and he was shipped.

I watched Forest under Ange tonight and if ever there was a case to say a manager can affect players drastically by asking them to play out of their comfort zones.! This was black and white!

They looked like rabbits in headlights as the danish team ( yes they are good ) ran through them. then 16 mins left throw on Woods who changes the game and the players attitude.

AUSSIE ANGE has I.M.P.O took forest backwards.

3.) 03 Oct 2025 09:42:05
him and amorim are the same. they are likeable but not good managers.


4.) 03 Oct 2025 09:46:40
One of my friends is a life long Forest fan, he likens our situation to Forest under Clough and after Clough, I think it is hard to disagree.

He isn’t in the Ange out brigade, he is more perplexed how the situation between the owner and previous manager has been allowed to escalate, two alpha males going at it and the club suffering as a result.


5.) 03 Oct 2025 09:50:02
Talk of him being sacked next week…. marinakis doesn’t hang around!


6.) 03 Oct 2025 10:26:23
He'll be lucky to simply get sacked and live. Marinakis looks like he could eat a whole one!


7.) 03 Oct 2025 10:26:35
The whole thing at Forest just highlights the issues that are created when owners get too involved in the running of the club.

Anyone who has watched EPL football over the past couple of years could see a mile off the problems with going from a manager like Nuno with his very defensive approach that had been drilled into a set of players and a squad built to play that way, to a ultra attacking manager like Ange.

You probably couldn't find two managers with such polar opposite approaches to football as Ange and Nuno.

The only reason I can see for why Forest hired Ange after sacking Nuno was out of spite to try and prove Nuno wrong by hiring a guy who is his exact opposite.

Simply they don't have the squad for Ange to be successful, and they will need a massive overhaul to even stand a chance. Which is something they can't do with the window shut.


8.) 03 Oct 2025 11:38:14
I hope they don't sack Ange next week, he could end up at OT if Anorim goes after the next few games!


9.) 03 Oct 2025 12:30:43
A bit like hiring Amorim isn’t it Shappy?


10.) 03 Oct 2025 13:47:51
Trueredman, very different context. Nottingham Forest had built a team around what Nuno wanted and have just had their most successful season in over 50 years.

United had a Frankenstein squad that had absolutely no identity or style, with there not really even being enough players to play ANY style successfully enough to be where they should be. The United team wasn't built to play any particular style, it needed totally dismantling and being rebuilt from the ground up.

At that point United had two choices, hire a manager who is adaptable and will try to play to his players strengths. This sort of manager will get better results in the short term, but will make rebuilding the team in the long-term harder and potentially take longer. As they don't have a clear style to recruit for, while they are more likely to keep players who don't fit their ideal style of play as they offer a different option. Meaning you don't shift players out as quickly either.

Or option B, hire a manager who has a very clear and defined playing style that matches how the club want to play moving forward. Someone who isn't going to be as flexible as they mould the squad to suit that style of play. They will be more ruthless with cutting players who don't suit that way of playing. Which means you suffer more in the short-term in the way of results, but hopefully you rebuild your squad quicker in the image that you want.

Whether it was Amorim, or any other manager (like Ange) who has a very distinctive way of playing we would be suffering the same now.

Only if they went the other route of a Thomas Frank or Oliver Glasner type of manager would we have seen different results by this point. The trade off is that players like Rashford and Antony would probably still be here and our summer recruitment would have looked different, maybe better in some ways, but just as likely it could have been worse. Without a clear style of play and while trying to fit all our best players into the team we would have likely looked for very different players.

The club have chosen a course, it was a course that was always going to be tougher to start with but better long-term, and likely to actually get us to a place where we can actually compete sooner rather than later (2-3 years rather than 4-5). They need to stick the course and break the media stranglehold on our club. For too long our club have allowed the media to set the narrative and ultimately dictate when the club hires and fires managers.

Fizz

Now that made me laugh :)


12.) 03 Oct 2025 14:04:33
shappy

You can't be serious. Amorim is a poor manager imo and we can buy another 10 players and will still suck under him. Everyone knows how to play us. he has zero guile in terms of how to manage a game from substitutions to tactical changes. fish out of water and not for the pl.


13.) 03 Oct 2025 14:15:43
let's be clear every manger since fergie got the boot when we finished outside top 4/ 5. People are trying to defend a guy who had us finish 15th and we look like we may do worse this year after spending 220 mill. This is not remotely comparable to other managers.

Amorim is the first manager since Fergie that I am actually embarrassed by as there seems to be no end to poor results. sure we had bad results under other mangers but nothing like this. I was not aware of the fact that we have never won two league games in a row under him. Its a joke and enough is enough. The bar with this guy is so low but he still can't get over it. Keep making excuses for him.

Athletic article saying if we lose to Sunderland tomm Amorim is safe. Its ridiculous and offensive as a fan to allow this to go on.


14.) 03 Oct 2025 15:27:57
Tbf Forest have had a number of managers and Nuno didn’t get to sign a new team.

They bought well. Ange is bad appointment.

Amorim is a great guy but as Ahmad says he’s predictable and has had time and money.

Brace for Hojlund KDB maybe making him a bargain buy! Rashford also playing great
Whats that say for Utd. I've been having a talk with a friend who studys every match very intense

He should me a video snippet of chances of how simple passes from bruno could set players on a 1v1! however sends it too far to the left and dashes into the box? Why when a simple pass straight is 1 on 1 is it intentional to try get the goal himself
Its not just bruno but others also.

Reddevilfan

1.) 01 Oct 2025 22:59:00
KDB would improve every striker with the service he provides. Legs may have gone, but his technical ability and vision haven't.

Very fitting Hojlund did it against Sporting though.


2.) 02 Oct 2025 07:41:50
It pains me to see players we had consistently do it at other clubs. Rashford was brilliant yesterday. Hojlund with 2 goals, shock, horror, the ball played in front of him and football played to his strengths.


3.) 02 Oct 2025 08:54:19
Yeah, it's a shame EtH never seemed to want to play to his strengths because I always thought Hojlund was a decent player.


4.) 02 Oct 2025 09:01:49
He was decent, and would have been better with coaching and another striker to support.

Instead we’ve now just replaced him with another young striker, who also has no support or supply.

Utter madness.

That being said, KDB is class. One of the best players to have graced our league.

Blackpool Red
Ah, I see you're back—like clockwork—ready to twist a comment into something it never was. If you'd actually read what I wrote (I know, big ask), you'd see I gave Rashford credit for playing well, not a glowing invitation to return.
But since nuance isn’t your strong suit, let me spell it out: One decent performance doesn’t erase years of inconsistency. We've seen this movie before—brilliant form right before a big contract or move, followed by a vanishing act worthy of an Oscar.
If Barcelona fancy a short-term wonder, they’re welcome to him. Just don’t act surprised when the sequel flops.

Conte really works well with scotty and Rasmus
Just watched Marcus Rashford goal for Barcelona

The injury to schar ref concussion probably gave Rashford a yard of space to direct the header in.

Keep it up Rashford only a few more months and you can bring out the walking stick.

My money is on a 2-1 win. City will be out the blocks fast and go in front early and we will gradually get back in the game before a late winner.

I'm sorry but I agree 100% with Gnev2.

I have watched the games lime everyone else and always believed he was fixing games. My family still argue to this day that one of the goals he could of saved by lifting his right peg 6 inches of the ground. If Stephen Lee can ve found match fixing for keeping 3 balls out of the pocket surely Onana was allegedly match fixing for his horrible attempt to look like he was doing his best.
