Zatman Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 1 hour ago, Genie said: He’d get another PL side, maybe back to Leicester? United would have to cut their losses and do a package to move him on. This is assuming they are serious about getting back to competing at the top. They are so badly run though. Compare what we did with Carney and what they did with Pogba. They should have sold him last year for £40-60m but instead he leaves for free (again). Moving him Maguire on and paying up his contract is small change for them, but they are useless. Isnt Maguire on 300k a week. That contract isnt moving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 He has left but Pogba being Pogba is ignoring doctors advice to get an operation so he can recover naturally and play in the World Cup but risk hos career. Umtiti did same thing last World Cup and he has barely played in 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could have sold Lingard last year for £30m and used it to pay off Maguire. They could have took a big fee for Pogba too but didn’t. The “we can’t afford to get rid of him” just doesn’t wash. They are incompetent to the tune of tens of millions a season and the squad is going backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 In general football clubs are often run badly… but United have to be up there with the worst run clubs in world football? Barcelona have a mountain of debt but at least have a good side and CL football to show for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is they have an expectant fanbase of crybabies so throw money at rubbish instead of trying to find a solution.

No patience at all McTominay, Maguire, Rashford for a start are not European level quality They’ve only thrown money at one of those players - and, whilst it was a LOT of money, he was a good player at the time. Shadow of that player now. The main thing seems to be that they don’t buy for a system or style of play. Using their rivals as an example, every Liverpool signing made in recent years has been to fit their system completely. Man Utd’s approach has been… chaotic.

daft Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 It might just be his style, but I thought Ten Hag looked absolutely lost. Seemed like his players didn't even listen when he tried to talk during a water break. Again, might be his style, but I just thought he was a deer in headlights.
