Man united have been pretty aggressive this window and properly backed the manager.

You're right they have but the problem is they've always backed Ten Hag which isn't necessarily a good thing.

I know people will point out he's won two trophies but the performances and their consistency doesn't point to any sort of sustainability and does he get the best out of players he has asked for, haven't seen it.
 
Really Ten Hag can have zero complaints. All of them veteran pros except Yoro.

Feels like a Jose or a Conte squad again but not good enough to win the league.

The profiles he goes for are weird, they lack a controller but they buy Ugarte, still haven't got a long term LB - They were looking at Braithwaite who is a left footed CB only to sign De Ligt and Yoro who are right footed...not even sure they needed Zirzkee either 🤷‍♂️
 
Best thing about Chiesa to Liverpool is somehow Brennan Johnson is catching a break from it.

Now it’s Werner on loop because we signed him instead of being able to get Chiesa.

Obviously I wasn’t best pleased with the Werner loan because I thought it meant only one forward but I have to hold my hands up because we spent 65m on Solanke and 30m on Odobert.

I get complaints but at least be honest about your complaints and don’t move the goal posts randomly later on to fit your agenda.

Will always be complaints.

If we signed Chiesa, it'd been cheap option. Liverpool sign him and it's opportunistic.

Even with Man Utd signing Ugarte,it's a great signing but if we did, it'd probably be spinned as signing a PSG reject who couldn't even hack it in France by some people
 
Just this window?

They've spent €650m in the three years he's been there!!

With lynchpin of this "backing" campaign being paying 95 million for Anthony who ETG coached in Ajax.

So they pay 95 fucking million EUR...
.... for player that the gaffer already has coached...
...thus should be able to evaluate his level very well...
...yet he ends up being possibly the most pathetic flop the whole league has ever seen...
...scoring 5 and assisting 3 goals in EPL - after again- being signed for 95 mil-

Yea. Please.
Keep ETH forever.
And back the shit out of him.

P.S that absolutely does not mean that we shouldn't buy more players that Ange wants. Different situation. I still say we need 2 more senior players (ready to make full impact from the start)
