Doesn’t make him brilliant though.

They really do love a rat-faced cunt in that club. I can't remember the last time they DIDN'T overpay just to get the players with the snidest mug. It's like they want to gain a psychological advantage by fielding a team that look like So Solid Crew on meth. Honestly, for decades now... just a sharply fugly bunch of pricks with ASBO written all over their rodent features. Rice is even trying to grow some whiskers. Pathetic. Maybe he's trying to suck up to their manager, Roland Rat-faced LegoPrick.
This list grows much bigger than the flops list, there is NO DOUBT about that, anyone with at least a semi-functioning brain understands that. Name the reason Chavs and City are where they are right now. That’s right, because they spent fucking money on quality players. They didn’t win titles by signing £20m players.
Can't believe there's people still defending this clown, as yourself if Pep or Klopp or Poch or Ten Hag were in that exact situation, do you think they'd play politics with their board and ruin a kid's career for the sake of their own ego's or would they actually do their fucking job and actually attempt to coach and nurture the kid and not play a player who in that role who isn't good enough?
Disclaimer:
- The below is my opinion and I don't consider it to be fact
- Yeah I do know that it'd take something darn special to get some/most of them names but...you don't play, you don't win
You gotta look at A-list (or ish) CB, that's how you fix our defence...even the whole team to be honest. Some of them guys are also terrific leaders, which we're lacking if you ask me.
- Laporte (injury-free version)
- Marquinhos
- Kounde
- Bastoni (may have heard of him, folks)
- Kim MJ (as above)
- Gvardiol (and again)
- Upamecano
- De Ligt
- Rudiger (yeah I know...)
- Christensen (...)
- Alaba
- Tomori
- Kalulu
- Rrahmani
- Toloi
- Ibanez
- Sergio Ramos
- Le Normand
- Skriniar
That's a decision that could cost Ange his job or help build his legacy.
No idea.
I promise you I'm no gooner.
I'm just being objective.
Ben White for 50 million vs vdv for 30 million. I ofc hope that vdv becomes the next jaap staam and wins us the title.
Put it in the other teams thread mate not here
It takes us two weeks to decide to pay an extra 3 million for a signing we're serious about !It’s claimed Galatasaray have already rejected the north London club’s €22m bid for the Denmark international requested his release clause of €25m to be paid to sanction his sale.
Akşam state Ange Postecoglu’s side took time to consider the Turkish club’s request and have now ‘decided to pay’ the €25m fee to sign the centre-back in this window.
Should Nelsson join his ‘biggest suitor’ for €25m, the report states it’ll be a club-record sale for Galatasaray.
Tottenham Hotspur have 'decided to pay' requested fee for signing - Spurs serious about transfer - Sport Witness
On June 20th, Hürriyet said Tottenham Hotspur had offered €22m to sign Victor Nelsson. It was also stated he had asked Galatasaray to accept the bid because he’s keen to join the Premier League side. Last Thursday, Milliyet reported the Turkish club’s vice-president, Erden Timur, made a trip to...sportwitness.co.uk
I'm not determined. Only a few days ago I posted something along the lines of:
"Good to see djed looking positive. Come on djed, show ange and the fans what you can do"
I'm behind him! I just think that it is revealing that conte got caned for not playing him, but only got 8 appearances at Rennes.
I've seen him play in the fa cup vs Woolwich (absolute class). And one other match in the championship where he was very quiet.
So it doesn't sound like we're very serious at all, otherwise we would have moved a lot faster to get it wrapped up.
Tell you what, let's look at the 10 most expensive transfers in premier league history.
VVD and Grealish are the only ones you can say have been successes and the only players that won prem league titles with the clubs that bought them
| Enzo Fernandez | Chelsea | SL Benfica | £106.8m | 2023 |
| Jack Grealish | Manchester City | Aston Villa | £100m | 2021 |
| Romelu Lukaku | Chelsea | Inter Milan | £97.5m | 2021 |
| Paul Pogba | Manchester United | Juventus | £93.25m | 2016 |
| Romelu Lukaku | Manchester United | Everton | £90m | 2017 |
| Mykhailo Mudryk | Chelsea | Shakhtar Donetsk | £88.5m | 2023 |
| Antony | Manchester United | Ajax | £82.2m | 2022 |
| Harry Maguire | Manchester United | Leicester City | £80m | 2019 |
| Virgil van Dijk | Liverpool | Southampton | £75m | 2018 |
| Jadon Sancho | Manchester United | Borussia Dortmund | £73m | 2021 |
The next 6 in the list are as below and again, at a push 3 of them could be seen as success - with Havertz winning a CL for Chelsea and Kepa being a good purchase though its debatable that he was a success.
Fofana to Chelsea for 80 mil
Nunez to Liverpool for 80 mil
Havertz to Chelsea for 80 mil
Pepe to Woolwich for 80 mil
Kepa to Chelsea for 80 mil
KDB to City for 76 mil
So that is 5 our of the top 16 all-time transfers to the premier league that you could call a success.
Not really.
I would suggest that signing Maddison and a goalkeeper getting high praise in serie A shows we are VERY serious.
It's not football manager, fella. We don't just click a button and hey presto, this guy is ours.
Same if you look at top 10 in the world. Maybe 3 successes in there, a couple of maybes and a lot of flops.
nah I wouldn't say very serious.Not really.
I would suggest that signing Maddison and a goalkeeper getting high praise in serie A shows we are VERY serious.

I would say we have done well so far and I'm happy about the signings but the cb situation determines whether we are very serious.
This just shows how bad Utd are at spending money.
