The Manchester United Thread

Tbh Sanchez may or may not be telling the truth, but whodafuq really cares, it's modern football.

He can say he had a statue of Busby in his house, no one will give a toss if he doesn't perform.
 
Manchester United are the richest club for 2016-17 beating Real Madrid by 1.5 M pounds

That is pretty **** impressive considering we didn't even have Champions League and Real actually won the Champions League.

Manchester United have retained their position as world football's top earners just ahead of Real Madrid, according to the latest annual "Money League" report by accountancy firm Deloitte.

United made £581m during the 2016-17 season, pipping Real Madrid to the top spot by just £1.5m, the closest margin in the rich list's 21 years.
​
In a statement, Deloitte Sports Business Group partner Dan Jones said: "United's ability to retain first position is all the more impressive against the backdrop of the weakened pound against the euro.

"With both Real Madrid and Barcelona forecasting further revenue growth in 2017-18, the battle at the top will likely come down to on-pitch performance again next year.

"With all three clubs through to the round of 16 of the Champions League, it may be as simple as the club that goes furthest in the competition will have the best chance of topping the Money League next year."

Oh lawdy, 581 million revenue, with other clubs not far behind? No wonder the transfer market is slowly starting to resemble the space race. One can only hope UEFA gets its **** together and produces some spending limitations that actually work. Otherwise I don't give it long before we see one of the historic clubs overinvest and go whoopsy daisy.

So who do you reckon the most likely club to go first? Will it be Barca or Real?
 
Love it.
Great banter and parody is the greatest compliment you can pay an original piece. :)

Good move for the lad. Johnstone has played every week let’s hope Tuanzebe will do the same. And be ready for more games cut season for us



@AVFCOfficial

Good work guys, here you go... We are delighted to announce the signing of Axel Tuanzebe on loan from @ManUtd...
 
From the Yeovil presser-



Jose on @Alexis_Sanchez: “We’ve got one of the best attacking players in the world. I think he'll be very important for us because we want to have the best players possible.” #MUFC


Jose Mourinho confirms that @Alexis_Sanchez will be part of #MUFC's squad travelling to Yeovil for Friday night’s @EmiratesFACup clash.


“Alexis is a player that becomes more than a player because of his multi-functionality,” Jose says. “I say he can play in four different positions in attack.” #MUFC


Jose also spoke about @Cristiano "I think with the moment @realmadriden is having now I think I should be the last one to add some fuel to the fire, Madrid is on fire, the results are not good. Cristiano is kind of player every manager + club wants but Zidane + Real Madrid have."


Jose: "I'm also happy for @HenrikhMkh. Could he perform better with us, could I take more from his talent, maybe, could he give a little more also to adapt to us, maybe. But I don't think regrets, he's in our history."


Jose: "Alexis changed from a fantastic club to a giant club and Mkhi changed for a fantastic club, so was a great deal for everybody. (Alexis can play) everywhere, in the attacking positions"
 
Woody's faces never fail to impress lol.

At least this is a realistic extension, then again anything feels short compared to Moyes.
