But they continue to try and invest into the squad regardless, being behind isn't exactly saying much after 4 games in the season. The squad problems will show over the course of a season and reflect on the results usually.
Meh, who would be worried about spending so much on a teenager when we have 0 net spend this summer and a 750m kit deal with **** loads of other sponsors. If he turns out the next big thing it will be a bargain because like you guys have tried, getting any top striker like Cavani will cost £50m. Benzema/Lewandowski/Muller probably similar, if not more.
Not saying it isn't a gamble, but there is some calculation to it in theory, with United's money it is a very small one in the scheme of things, rather than getting no one at all. Like you guys seem to be doing.
Honestly wasn't even having a dig at you, I was genuinely saying that I felt sorry for you. Highest season ticket prices in the league and yet you always show lack of ambition in every transfer window. Or leave it very late to make one big signing that appease the fans rather than thinking of the squad problems.
