However good a player is if their heart is elsewhere get them gone but on our terms. Not sure it is the greatest career move as really cannot see them getting close to City or Liverpool and were well behind Spurs and Chelsea last season. Not sure their owners business model is based on Europa league and they have wasted hundreds of millions on bang average and have a wage bill higher than their near neighbours. He will also be reliant on his partner at the back and if their full backs are Shaw and the kid from Palace with no left foot and De Gea flapping in goal they are hardly rock solid. If he has gone just hope we do not go silly on a replacement spending big. A good player but has a mistake in him and not as solid as Huth or Morgan at their best Bit of a bitter comment. Wan Bissaka was one of the best full backs in the league last year and saying he has no left foot is a bit like saying Chilwell hasn't got a right foot (he hasn't). De Gea had a bad spell but is still a top keeper, Lindelof is a good defender and if he partners Maguire then they are making steps to. Improve. However I'm not convinced by OGS and they still need midfielders but unfortunately their name and brand is still attractive and he will be probs get paid double a week what he's on on now so he's sorted for life.

Fair point. I thought you were saying it's okay that they sell rotten produce because it's the staff's fault. I don't shop there, so I don't know if it's the norm for them to sell rancid groceries.

That's bullshit mate, of course it matters what we do with the money. It's like saying you won a million on the lottery so it doesn't matter what you spend the money on. If we blow it on a duff player then it's wasted profit and thus not profit anymore.

jock2612 Posted 21 July 2019 Share Posted 21 July 2019 If true I think he very replaceable . To take a player who until the end of Hulls relegation season was not even in the first team to a world record fee in 2years is superb business. Is he worth that fee certainly not . He is good but not great. I wish him good luck but am certain he will be found out quickly. Man City knew what he was worth . However he must be replaced because from what I have seen in pre-season Evans is our best defender by miles but the others leave a great deal to be desired.

Don't judge anything on pre season it means nothing. Soyuncu and or benkovoc need an extended run.

True. You've just reminded me of something. When I was about 16, I worked in a supermarket in Barrow. The bloke in charge of the produce was a fat, old cockney who stank to high heaven. We used to get complaints about him. The stench was unbelievable. The last person you want handling fruit and veg. I used to serve Ian Marshall at the checkout sometimes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the point at all. Man utd have lots of English players so don't need one for homegrown, and could have replaced Herrera and got the class centre back for around 64 million combined. I would have spunked that kind of stupid money on a forward who can transform them like a Jadon Sancho or Gareth Bale or a midfielder like Saul niguez but what do I know 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if Man.city are just sitting in and waiting... How can you make such a presumptuous statement,without knowing what either Manchester clubs are going to do. The transfer window isn't closed,and we all know every club play silly games..!! Man.city came back for Mahrez and had to cough up,more than they first proposed...!!
