Also important to remember we have been terrible at selling players for ages now…even before Fergie retired. For example, we sold Berbatov for a measly 5 million at 29.

That's what I'm talking about.
We have always been atrocious at selling players.
For a club that prides itself on its ability to make money through marketing, it's insane to think they get their pants pulled down yearly on players heading out the door.

Signing bang average players or past the best or old crocks on huge wages and contracts won’t help lol

Perhaps, that’s the reason. We’ve never really been a selling club and have only sold players we’ve either wanted to sell or, in the rare instance, had our hands forced by the player. Since a huge chunk of our revenue comes from sponsorship deals, we’ve never really cared about recouping money from player sales.

Clubs know this and lowball us on players (typically on the fringes).
 
The good news keeps coming 😀 could be huge for us in the second half of the season. Can’t wait to see how he comes back after sorting his head out and now hopefully in top physical condition after ETH specific training programme

EXC. Jadon Sancho is back in full first team training at Manchester United. For @TheAthleticFC
 
Pure domination. Palace one chance apart forcing a WC save from ddg have barely got out there half.

Great finish and build up for our goal
 
Little Zaha batting above his average there 😆
Lucky it wasn't outside a bar in Glasgow ;) He'd be whizzing through traffic in a nee naw at this stage 🤕
 
Var giveth, Var taketh.
Terrible 2nd half, and I swear, Rashford is one of the worst players when he stops playing with the team and starts soloing.

And to make things even worse, Case is suspended for Arsenal game because of idiotic passes from defence.
 
Not a terrible result. But a poor second half tbh. Looked a bit leggy. Agree with Van Rashford was very greedy tonight. Was robbed by a shocking VAR. Guess it’s true about balancing themselves out.
 
As I've said many times. I'm with ETH for the long haul.
This season so far has been a bonus. I didn't expect this much.

Another bonus on the way?
We might not be bought by a bunch of murdering Arabs :) (I wonder will our Scouse rivals fall to the Middle East?).
