The Manchester United Thread

Disappointment in the Jan transfer window for the women’s team. Cant believe City rejected 2 bids from us for Chloe Kelly despite the fact she said she wanted to come. And accepted bids from Brighton and Arsenal ( she accepted the later ) Hopefully we can get her for free at the end of the season.

Lad from Arsenal just confirmed the move on Insta. Going straight into the first team squad according to Andy Mitten and Ornstein
 
Well that one went under the radar with the media. Hopefully they will pay a decent percentage of that extortionate salary he is earning. An outright sale would be better but with the wage he is on it was never going to happen. Next up sell Casemiro and get rid of another high earner.
 
U18s lost 0-4 to city
U16s beat city 6-1
U21s won 2-0

And all our loanees had good games today either assisting or scoring
 
By the start of next season our squad avr age could be around 22 😮
I'm sure there will be a couple more mature players coming in at some point to raise it slightly, but you mustn't forget that the Busby Babes had a simliar average whilst the so called Fergie Fledglings averaged at 24. If the young players live upto half those two squads then there is nothing to worry about. One of the problems the club has had over the least 10 years is buying 'stars' who are on the downward slope in their careers at over inflated prices thus pushing up the average age and limiting the development of the young players, several of whom are now proving letting them go was a mistake.

Yeah wasn’t a complaint mate. More just shock after thinking who’s leaving, left, coming in. I welcome it 🙂
 
With Antony gone and Villa covering 75% of Rashford’s wages — United’s player wage bill will drop down to 6th in the PL (annualized), and Villa is rapidly closing the gap so 7th isn’t far away. United wage bill is now practically only half of City’s.
 
Just seen Ornstein saying Villa could cover upto 90% of Rashfords wages if he plays well. Even better! Good to have competent people on transfers at last.
