Hearing that sheik jassim has had a bid accepted. I hope its true, after what the glazers have served up we deserve this. Proper owner, willing to put money into facilities, into Manchester and the team.
1.) 09 Jun 2023 21:22:23
Not mentioned anywhere that I can see.
2.) 09 Jun 2023 21:22:48
Not mentioned anywhere that I can see. Where is this information?
3.) 09 Jun 2023 21:25:12
Perhaps someone dreamt of it.
4.) 09 Jun 2023 21:35:00
It would be nice to take away some of the news stories and spotlight from the CL final tomorrow :-), but it won’t happen unfortunately.
5.) 09 Jun 2023 23:21:39
Think these rumours are coming from fake Romano twitter accounts.
6.) 10 Jun 2023 05:37:19
Don't be believing anything on that blue bird site.
07 Jan 2023 18:41:02
Hearing we've sign weghorst on loan. Disappointing if true.
1.) 07 Jan 2023 18:50:05
Was poor at Burnley, but off the top of my head I think his goals record isn’t too bad? Especially in Germany, I remember hearing about him.
2.) 07 Jan 2023 19:17:56
His goalscoring record is really good and he’s the profile of player we just don’t have. In Erik we trust.
He was crap at Burnley though.
3.) 07 Jan 2023 19:22:29
I know it was only 1 game but I remember him being a real handful against us last season, maybe with better players around him he can be effective for 6 months then in the summer we can hopefully sign one of our top targets.
4.) 07 Jan 2023 20:05:47
Changed the game for Holland against Argentina in the wc. That’s bout all I remember. If eth wants him then that’s fine by me. It’s only a loan after all.
5.) 07 Jan 2023 20:12:05
Certainly a different kind of player to those we have, and he's actually a number 9 rather than a winger or 10 who plays there sometimes.
I trust Ten Hag, so I'm fine with it as it's clearly not the long-term solution and he will add some much needed physicality. Another bonus is that we now look a threat at set pieces and Weghorst is about 11ft tall.
6.) 07 Jan 2023 20:22:23
Aboubakar makes me think of United signing Ighalo.
Weghorst makes me think about Ajax signing Haller.
Dont mind it along as the Glazers are gone before the plans for the summer are made.
The greater good.
7.) 07 Jan 2023 20:31:23
Changed the game against Argentina in the world cup if I remember correctly. If Netherlands had of continued with the same plan of pumping it up to him then maybe a different outcome.
Mirror the message above. In Erik we trust!
8.) 07 Jan 2023 22:11:59
We have all praised the EtH signings in the summer and want to get away from the Ed Woodward big splash signings. This has all the feel of an EtH player that fits a position of need without hindering the future plans.
If it is who he wants I am happy. makes more sense than Felix.
9.) 08 Jan 2023 10:41:34
I think the impression that he was poor at Burnley is a little unfair.
He joined them in the January of 2022 when they were in a mess fighting relegation.
He was feeding off of absolute scraps for 6 months. This point is proven by the statistic that no side in EPL history created less goal scoring chances than Burnley last season. Messi himself would have struggled to score more than 5 goals in that side in half a season.
At every other club his goal scoring record is roughly one goal every two games. Which is solid, especially as he has never played in a side that was dominating the league and creating loads of chances.
He's obviously not the perfect player for us, and there will be doubts over whether ultimately he is good enough for where we want to be. But on a 6 month loan deal where the other options are either definitely not good enough, not the right profile of player, or hugely expensive then he might be a good solution.
10.) 08 Jan 2023 11:06:33
He’s basically the plan B. Last 10 minutes go long ball if they need a goal.
11.) 08 Jan 2023 15:59:37
He’s a cart horse. End of conversation.

I've heard a rumour of garner to palace on loan, have any of the eds heard anything?
1.) 05 Aug 2022 21:01:13
Would make sense, they will be looking for a Gallagher replacement.
2.) 06 Aug 2022 15:12:00
Personally would like him to stay and see what part he can play in the midfield rotation. The high energy press from EtH will need more than just the first 11 to be successful. That being said if he does go out I have no problem with his next stage of development under Viera at Palace.
3.) 06 Aug 2022 23:36:17
Brad, I really like the look of Garner. That said he should only stay of he's going to play.
At this point in his career he cannot afford to be 4th or 5th choice playing 800 minutes a season.
To continue his development and have a chance of reaching his potential he needs to be playing 2000-3000 minutes of football.
If EtH wants to play him and thinks he can play at the club to the standard needed then great.
However, if Fred, McTominay, Eriksen, Donny and a potential new signing will all feature ahead of him then send the lad out on loan.
04 Mar 2022 20:14:10
Looks like wijnaldum might be leaving psg as he's not happy with playing time, do any of the ends know if we could look to sign him? I think he could be a really good signing for us.
{Ed002's Note - He won't be moving to MU.}
1.) 04 Mar 2022 22:57:03
Thanks Ed, shame he is a decent player.
2.) 04 Mar 2022 23:30:56
Hearts seem set on a certain London footballer of the year.
3.) 05 Mar 2022 15:25:43
Wijnaldum was great at Newcastle/ Liverpool and also for Holland at the Euros but has stagnated since. He wanted his payday and ended up being a small fish in a bigger pond.
Liverpool have a knack of selling their big players and coming back even stronger. Wise investment. I hope we can do something similar when we lose a few of our own egos this summer.
10 Dec 2021 12:36:54
So martial wants to leave, does anyone know who's interested in him?
{Ed002's Note - His agent is offering him around.}

Looks like we're stuck with the glazers and will be for a very long time. What sane person would spend upwards of 7 billion to buy us? 6 billion upfront and then another billion clearing the debt the people you have just paid 6 billion to created.
Even if someone does agree I'm sure they will try and squeeze a bit more out.
1.) 14 Oct 2023 20:28:08
The problem is that the Glazers wanted 7bn+, Al Thani then eventually offered 6bn, but promised to spend a further 1.5bn on clearing debt and investment. All that did was tell the Glazers that he had an extra 1.5bn to spend. They tried to shake him down for it. He's offered nearly double the current market value for the club. They still won't sell. Time to walk away.
2.) 14 Oct 2023 22:16:04
It's a joke, can't blame him for walking away. Jim getting a quarter of the club is not a good move by him either. nothing will change and he will be the next target.
01 Sep 2023 17:57:18
One thing I have liked this summer is that we have moved on a lot of younger players who won't make the 1st team, yeah maybe it has been for low fees, but mostly we retain buy backs or sell on fees which will serve us well financially moving forward.
24 Aug 2023 19:49:10
Hearing benzema doesn't fit into nunos plans in Saudi, would you guys take him? Yes from me even if its on a 1 year deal. Proper goalscorer to take to pressure off hojlund and he could learn a lot from him.
1.) 24 Aug 2023 20:03:39
I don't think Nuno is going to win that fight. He'll be on a plane back to Europe shortly an even richer man.
2.) 24 Aug 2023 20:45:13
Gotta agree with Mumbles on this one. There’s no way the Saudis will side with Nuno on this one.
I had the pleasure of meeting the guy on multiple occasions back when he was at Wolves and I was working as a journalist. He can be a super nice guy, but he’s also not afraid to speak his mind and doesn’t seem like the sort to back down, neither of which will go down too well with his new employers.
29 Jul 2023 20:06:43
We've got a here we go on hojlund. Brilliant summer so far.
28 Jul 2023 23:31:15
Anyone know if there's any truth in the talks with Adidas regarding greenwood coming back? Sounds legit as Adidas are our biggest sponsor.
1.) 29 Jul 2023 13:54:08
The only thing I know Danny is that the whole way through this process the sun have almost acted like his mouthpiece. So I’d say there’s a strong chance there’s truth in it.
23 Nov 2023 23:11:44
Nothing will change imo, glazers and sjr will fall out by the summer, old trafford will still be falling apart and we will keep falling further back from the top teams. You can roll a turd in glitter but it's still a turd and that's our situation.
18 Nov 2023 00:09:09
Alot of players need to go before eth. If he had decent support we wouldn't be 6th we would be up around top.
11 Nov 2023 19:13:19
Maybe on the flip side Brailsford sorted out the structure and helped get the right people in the right places. If sjr gets the right people in it will be a massive step forward for us, even If we can't see it immediately.
08 Nov 2023 22:50:41
Greame potter is the man they want to run the club.
07 Nov 2023 23:18:57
Did France used to be in South America spenno? ;)
20 Nov 2023 21:35:28
Blackpool may he needs the change to fulfil his potential, he's been in some awful teams and is still in one. Maybe we're holding rashy back not the otherway around. If he was in a team that actually turned up everyweek he would score goals.
19 Nov 2023 20:32:16
Maybe he's missing Shaw being behind him, Shaw bombs forward and opens up space for him.
26 Oct 2023 22:32:54
I thought benni Mccarthy was coming to play not coach ;)
14 Oct 2023 22:33:11
I can't imagine there is that much oil or gas below ot, the glazers would have found it by now, knocked the stadium down and got us ground sharing with Salford.
14 Oct 2023 22:16:04
