Has to be an obligation to buy, otherwise it's pointless.

Nah no way I just saw a stat — Mason Mount made 15 passes in 85 minutes yesterday

How the f*** did we find someone who gets on the ball even less than Scott McTominay

Mason Mount answers the question of what Thomas Muller would look like if he was half as intelligent as he is off-the-ball

McMount

Are we at least better than Chelsea?

That's a low bar. Mudryk is one of the few players who's flopped more than Sancho though.

Ralf really recommended us players like Alvarez Diaz Haaland Nkunku Gvardiol Nkunku Vlahovic and Enzo, while we ended up with Antony, Eriksen, Malacia and Mount. We NEED someone with good talent ID asap in charge of transfers, not some d***head like Murtough or Woodward and not a manager that had not scouted a player in his life before coming to our club like Ten Hag or Ole. Like someone who actually knows what he’s doing. Like if you kept Ralf and put someone next to him with good negotiating skills we would have spent that 500 mil or so we’ve spent over the last 2 years a lot better.

Ten Hag only started doing great things at Ajax after Overmars stopped getting him FC Utrecht players (ETH former club)

Like people now saying get in De Zerbi like that would change anything. You think De Zerbi is the one that got in the likes of MacAllister, Caicedo, Ferguson, Mitoma and now those Enciso and Pedro guys? No, it’s cus they have an excellent recruitment system in place and executives that act on it.

Not saying he isn’t a great manager, but get De Zerbi in at us under our current executives and I can guarantee you he’ll become another Graham Potter

That's why I find it wild when people want to completely blame Ten Hag. The club is f***ed from the top down, so firing him and hiring somebody else would just lead to the same result.

At this point it looks like there's no takeover happening though, which is pretty worrying bc that's the only way these things change.

Well said

Rashfords pressing was embarrassing yesterday. Looked lazy. I get he’s fruetsrated with lack of chances and how s*** we play but damn, at least he’s gotta hustle

Literally all he does is run away from the ball. Which I don’t even blame him for cause he’s not a CM so I get that he’s scared to get the ball deep and turn etc. Everything about us is f***ed rn.

he never presses tho he does it to maintain and preserve his body cos he knows he’s gonna get overplayed regardless.

even if we get a huge fee for Varane, sure we can then by a decent midfielder but we are then short at the back ..smh🤔

That Mou clip of him not playing up top is absolutely right (even if he did bag 30 goals last season).

His play off the wing is inconsistent but he's just a lot better when he cuts inside and can run at full backs from that angle.

Our midfield is ridiculous, I really don't see why we spent so much money on Mount when he doesn't fit the profile we need at all.

Ten Hag was really gambling on a Mainoo breakthrough season and that stopped before it even started.

Funny how we’re going to sell Varane then have to get Todibo who’s going to be costing twice the amount he would have been had we bought him two weeks ago. He’s gonna be 60 mil plus now, all the while Pavard is going to Inter for a measly €30 mil. It’s f***ing embarrassing.

When I was barely watching that Leipzig-Bayern game everytime I'd look at the tab it was cutting to Olmo wheeling away and Pavard looking guilty like he'd just f***ed up. Keep Varane or get that Toledo lad

Why on earth would we sell our second best CB to get Pavard on the decline or Todibo who's an absolute gamble at this stage?

Despite all this negativity, I've been very impressed by Onana so far, has the right attitude and the leadership qualities we need in goal.
