I think Sancho is a bit of a lost cause, as he seems to have surrounded himself with an array of twats, but I still think Rashford is a decent player. Looked really good for Villa. Nowhere near his once potential, but still decent.
It’s make your mind up time Bruno. “Should I stay or should I go? If I stay there will be trouble …” with any luck.
Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal have offered a deal for Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, 30, and told the Portugal midfielder he has 72 hours to make a decision. (Mail, external)
I think Bruno said if United wanted to cash in on him, then he’d go. I don’t think they’ll get a better opportunity to raise much-needed funds for their rebuild than this. Further to that, I don’t think Bruno is a part of their long term future, and they’ll be better served by replacing him with an actual competent ball-controlling CM that can pick out passes. Ugarte is shit except for being able to tackle/win the ball back, but he’s awful on the ball. If they got someone like Wharton or like a Zubimendi type, then I’d start to get a bit concerned that they might actually be getting their shit together.
If they got rid of Bruno, Garnacho, Onana, Rashford, Antony, Sancho, Mainoo, and brought in Wharton, Mbeumo, Cunha, Dibling, maybe another CM and literally any non-Onana keeper, they’ll be on their way. Still shite, mind, but starting to look more like a competent football club.
When I worked in Indonesia, a young local work colleague told me regularly what a massive Liverpool fan he was.
Pre season he excitedly told me he was getting the new kit, with 15 Wellbeck on the back
