Unfortunately I can't see Verstergaard going anywhere. The damage was done when we offered him the wage he is on. Already turned down Fulham hasn't he? He wants to "stay and fight for his place" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopfkino Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 Wtf is going on at the club? Have we imported all Man Utd’s staff and that’s why it’s gone to shit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akanji stinks of 70k+ per week trying to offload him back to the Bundesliga in a year or twos time Percy said in an article the other day that if Fofana is sold we will be spending less than half of what we get towards new players Those 3 you mentioned would cost at least that and probably more unfortunately 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 Signing another second rate player in his late 20s is exactly what we don't need to do. What happened to identifying young talent with loads of potential and high resale value? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Shire Fox Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 This is why i hope we dont sell Fofana because you just knew they’d panic buy shit like this with the money and be in an even weaker position then before. Theres a reason players arent wanted at their clubs. The clubs recruitment team needs a shake up from top to bottom. Far too many older players with no resale value are being signed under this dipstick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxesWalk Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 (edited) Seems like a down to earth kinda guy, if those numbers are correct he would be looking to be our highest paid player…. So I doubt it 🤣 Edited 25 August 2022 by FoxesWalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxondale Posted 25 August 2022 Share Posted 25 August 2022 I’m pretty sure the situation we’re in means the agent of every centre back in Europe who fancies a move to a PL team is chucking his player’s name in the media. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
