What is worse that having a vibe ruining dickhead in your squad? Having the manager make a point of trying to get rid of him, calling him out in front of the rest of the squad to tell him to work on finding himself a new club, only to then not be able to shift him and have the managerās credibility with the rest of the players shot when he comes back
I was listening to a conversation this week mitigating concerns about Utd failing to get rid of their unwanted players by putting it in the historical context that (me badly remembering the stat so dont @ me if this is not 100% right) itās been over 10 years since Utd managed to sell a first team player by this time in the summer, and he was some no name player that if I gave you his name I doubt anyone here could pick out of a line up.
It took them about 10 minutes of batting that idea around to raise the possibility that maybe this means Utd are just historically shit at offloading players.
Onana has hurt his hamstring and is expected to be out for 2 month, at least until after the window shuts. This will hurt their prospects of shifting him and could result in them starting the season with the same options they had last year
I keep reading on social media this, āThe players are looking super fit and leanā narrativeā¦decided to have a look on the Caf to see wtf theyāre on about.
Aside from clearly clutching at straws, this tickled me fancyā¦
New bid for Mbeumo. £65million + £5million add-ons.
How many weeks have they messed around with the deal, and ended up paying top dollar anyway?
Still, annoying that heās going there. Cunha and Mbeumo have the workrate to cause teams problems, so I hope the rotten culture within the club infects them and they falter away.
