We need to get real.

Next season is about stabilising the shitshow and transitioning into a De Zerbi team.

We've finished 17th twice ffs. All of our best players are broken.

A top half finish with some entertaining football and maybe a cup final will more than do given the state we are in.

We just need to stop the rot. We are not signing Kroupi/Wharton/Rodgers et al.

People turning their noses up at Savinho are laughable. Then again the same people didn't want Grealish or Rashford on loan and preferred to give Tel/Odobert a go. Any shite becomes massively overrated once they put a Spurs shirt on.

The scum didn't go from shite to signing Rice for 100m in one season. It takes time.

United did well with their 3 attacking signings last summer but who are those 3 players available for 60-80m that transforms our attack right now? Who is this season's Mbuemo and Cunha? Maybe Kroupi but he's out of our league.

There’s a fundamental misunderstanding of why Utd improved last year.

they were still average as ever with Amorim, and Cunha and Mbuemo, whilst not disastrous, were underwhelming. Amorim was slavishly wedded to his 3-4-2-1 and he was having Bruno too deep to hurt teams with Mainoo inexplicably on the Bench.

Carrick came in and fixed their midfield balance and the attack started humming as a result.

Utd were the 2nd best team in the league with Carrick because he understands that (quoting RDZ) what you do in the first 70 affects the last 30.

Let's be honest, Spurs and Everton should NEVER be in the market or even linked with the same players anyway.
We are a BIG 6 club for fuck sake! Our revenue and resources dwarfs theirs.
We SHOULD be in the market for the same players as the rest of the BIG 6 .
The sporting ambition of this football club is rotten to the core.

Funny that because yesterday you were pining for Adam Wharton but you seem to have forgotten who he played for before Palace, like ok then

I do think Kean is good not great, but he is a prime age striker who would be affordable with PL experience (and obviously Paratici connection so a deal to be done). Italian aswell so De Zerbi probably likes him a lot. The link makes sense and is probably a good fit for both sides.

Unfortunately, just feel that the level of players we’re after this summer will disappoint most of us. We simply aren’t high enough up the food chain anymore, we can’t attract real proven quality. The Keans of the world are our level.

I dont think he's that good

But also, more so, he seems to be "just" a striker. IE - he isnt coming deep to link play, he isn coming deep to let wingers come in etc - hes just in the box trying to finish things.

Im not sure thats RDZs thing at all, and if thats a profile we want I say just give Lankshear a shot - and put the Kean money to another striker to complement
