I call bullshit on that number for us.

No the Spurs debt is about right

Its debt to build the stadium now financed by bonds which do not need to be paid off for an average of over 20 years, with a very low interest rate, so our debt is very manageable

Most other clubs debt is due to over paying for players - ManU debt is from the Glazer's structuring the purchase so the debt was on ManU, and x years after the takeover very little has been paid off. And the interest rate is 3 or 4 times what Spurs pay, so it hurts ManU.

The Glazer debt is not yhe only thing ManU fans complain of - Glazers pay themselves large fees and dividends as well.........
 
De Gea is United's POTY again! After all of 8 clean sheets. Couldn't make a more damning assesment of the outfield players if they tried :contelol::contelol::contelol:
 
So still no DOF then.....?

Long may the recruitment cluster-fuck continue. :mourthumb:
thank god for that, cos they have so much money that if they shaped up, we simply wouldn't be able to compete.

Will De Jong solve United’s midfield problems?

How does he compare to Rice/ Neves?
More dynamic mover and volume passer than both.. less defensive work than Rice. Much higher level player than Neves.

Don't watch him every week at Barca but obviously for some reason he's not doing it regularly to the level he's capable of .

Hard to say really.. depends what's around him.. but with Ten Hag coaching and De Jong in midfield it would be hard to not imagine a fairly good improvement in their midfield. No idea where Bruno fits though, odd player.

Interesting, cheers 👍

I think he will improve their midfield, but he wants to stay at Barca and may be forced out. Some parallels to our Bastoni situation.
 
The only other real choice was Ronaldo, and he looked like he couldn't be arsed for half the season.
Well, he was my POTY - thanks to him, we got rid of Nuno and if the rumours are to be believed, he put the block on Antonio going to OT - double result!!

Supposedly De Jong himself said the issue is that he's playing much higher up the pitch than he did at Ajax.

He said he likes to collect the passes from the CBs and distribute. Definitely the right profile for us (except maybe the dribbling and physicality), but he'd be far too expesive both in terms of wages and transfer fee.

For United it could be a big problem if they don't get ball playing CMs, and CBs or he'll be trying to play Ajax ball with a buch of donkeys and make the situation worse.
 
Pogba must rank as one of the most over-rated and over-hyped players in recent memory. Absolute waster who amazingly still has apologists. Shame he's not still there draining their bank accounts

And a dirty bastard to boot

I still haven’t forgotten that shocker of a tackle on Dele and he’s repeated it since
 
Ok, he's earning tons of money, we know that....but that doesn't buy him an IQ and/or social intelligence.
He should focus more on being a footballer and less on being a wanna-be gangsta.

JADON SANCHO is making the most of his free time before he reports back for Manchester United pre-season training.
The 22-year-old is due to return to Carrington on June 27 after being left out of Gareth Southgate's England squad for their opening four Nations League matches.

Sancho enjoyed a post-season break in Jamaica at the end of last month after United finished sixth in the Premier League.
And he has now shared pictures of himself in a luxury jet on Instagram with his 8.5 million followers.
In the three images posted on social media, the Three Lions international can be seen showing off a diamond-encrusted luxury watch.
A Louis Vuitton bag was also firmly in shot along with a bottle of aftershave.

Sancho shared an Instagram story of him at the MetLife Stadium - home of NFL clubs the New York Giants and New York Jets.

The former Borussia Dortmund ace posted multiple videos of himself watching the Summer Jam hip-hop festival from the stands.

But it was his posts from inside the private jet that had his fans talking.

One user commented: "Okay someone’s a bit drippy."


Another commented: "Jadon with the drip."

A third added: "Ice in the veins."

One them simply stated: "Drip king."

Sancho struggled in his first season at Old Trafford following his £73million move from BVB - chipping in with just three goals and as many assists in 29 Premier League games.


Southgate has warned the youngster that if his form fails to improve, he runs the risk of not being named in his World Cup squad.

Yeah, and cement in the head...

Perfect example of getting too much, too young. And they wonder why ordinary people think footballers are obscenely overpaid.

Focus on being a footballer when there's no football on and the players are on holiday, good one.

Do you have a problem with young men enjoying themselves on social media? I didn't know 'wannabe gangstas' have a certain look according to you, interesting...
 
Looks like he's getting the Raheem Sterling treatment to me. Young black footballer who gets targeted by the rags for expressing himself in a way that really winds up certain people. Yeah no shit he buys expensive clothes and travels by private jet, he's a millionaire footballer.

Newsflash: None of these guys are decked out in gap clothing. It just seems to be the black ones who get the media heat for it though.

For your interest, I did post pics of a couple of white players (some time back) questioning their "taste". But you did not notice that.
