Do you think it’s dawned on many of them yet that they have been in transition for so long, that they’re now back at the beginning of a transition. 9 years ago they needed to replace Rooney, Vidic, Carrick, Ferdinand, Evra. Coming up this summer they now need to replace, Matic, Mata, Cavani, Greenwood, Lingard, Pogba who’ll all be going to pastures new for zero fee. Wan Bisaka, Shaw, Maguire, Fred not fit for purpose and it will be PR38 next year if he stays..
If they don’t make the CL, what the fuck are they going to do? The big dream was obviously Rashford, Sancho b& Greenwood as their all star front 3. One will be inside, one is so far off what they thought it’s funny and Rashford is awful and they’ve all actually started to cotton onto this.
They’re going to need £200/£300m to move forwards..
Just had a look on their transfer window thread and the rules they have include telling a poster where to get his source from and how many times they can post, also there is to be no humour. This lot are off their rockers.
Anyone not following the rules will be warned and perma banned from the thread. Please abide by the following list. DON'T: Post anything from clear BS accounts. Post anything from clickbait tabloid accounts. Post anything from aggregator sites (Utdreport etc) who don't link to original source...

Anyone not following the rules will be warned and perma banned from the thread. Please abide by the following list.
DON'T:
Post anything from clear BS accounts.
Post anything from clickbait tabloid accounts.
Post anything from aggregator sites (Utdreport etc) who don't link to original source and tend to make stuff up for retweets/follows.
Post anything that was tweeted more than three days ago. If it wasn't posted before then, nobody cares.
Use the thread to argue about the players United are linked with compared to those that a club like City are signing. If you want to moan, make a new thread.
Use the thread to moan about people who are moaning.
post offtopic comments in the thread. Keep the thread small and simple rather wasting pages on discussion about the quality of the player
post more than two tweets per post.
post joke/piss take tweets
post a non-English tweet without a basic translation
Tweets from actual journalists who work for well known media outlets are always best. (Examples - Di Marzio, Mitten, Ogden, Mathieson, Marcotti, Jackson, Ducker etc)
Last year's blacklist still applies and we will add or subtract new accounts to the below list as appropriate.

Also as a general idea, here's the Tier list from Reddit about the reliability of the journalists. Avoid posting stuff from low tiered sources
SPOILER: TIER LIST
Again this is just to give a general idea.
UPDATE FOR CLARITY:
what tweets can we post?
ALL English league tweets. No non-league tweets.
Major European top leagues only for Spanish, Italian, French, German, Dutch
Do not post tweets from outside of these boundaries.
Get a load of this of the caf in a thread about them ever being back to their former glory
"Not under the Glazers.
The kind of spending pattern that we’ll need to leap ahead of City, especially, but also Chelsea is not in the Glazer business model, I don’t think.
The main problem is that you have to improve your team rapidly to catch up. If you spread it over several years you never quite make it. I don’t like it and it really shouldn’t be the rule but in practice you have to outspend your rivals by a significant margin across two or three windows. Then you can go back to a more measured tweak and hone policy. We’ll never do this under the glazers.
A good manager can come in and win us a league or a trophy or two but if we want to dominate it will take more than that".
Shit the bed. Seen the Mason thread is closed so well aware we need to stop discussing it, but just seen the latest development that he’s been further arrested on “threats to kill”.
Assume we can mention that still and just say, “wow”.
