They really are the gift that keeps giving.

Or as the Glazers say, the GRIFT that keeps on giving.

Shouldn't that be a urinal?

That's behind it

Hearing a lot of this "next season will be better". Not seeing a lot of reasons why.

Amorim talks a good game and that seems to be enough for them for now.

Zirkzee quoting you'll never walk alone hahahaha

I’m honestly like Jim.

He’s a great part owner of United.

Massive.

The body language there is atrocious, stood as far back as they could get.

Embarrassing.

Ratcliffe should be there up on stage singing seeing he made them go to get them the 10m

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Wow, a regular Confucius. After the rain.......
Who was that prick?

Great headline from the DT

The myth of Man Utd’s support in Asia is crumbling​

Bet365 got 16-1 odds on relegation next season. Surely worth a tenner?
They may sign Cunha but he’s been stuck at the bottom of the league all season with Wolves. No guarantee there.
Rat man may well be off, Casimero, Lurch is going, Sir Marcus is off. They’re left with Rasmus Birtles and his even worse mates. 16-1 is decent.

The fact it’s only 16/1 says a lot.

About 10 years ago when Mourinho’s final season was in freefall at Chelsea I put a tenner on them to be relegated, at 1000/1.

rag on our Whatsapp group reckons they'll get "at least" £120 million for the ratfaced one.

They'll be lucky to get half of that.

Selling your best player to stay solvent and find a few players to fill a lot of holes. Reminds me of when we sold Sweep.

 

[Gobshiight]

I'm sure they'll reinvest the fernandes money wisely...

Probably the 4th and 5th installments of the Angel Di Maria deal.

Doesn’t really matter if they get £120m for him, he is their best player by a distance, especially in goal terms (creating and scoring) and they aren’t going to sign someone who’ll get 30-40 goals and assists a season, take all the set pieces and pens and crucially - plays virtually every single game.

They’ll be very pleased to hear about this in Burnley, Sheffield and Leeds.

What a sad set of cunts.

Might try and find today's big game against Hong Kong, 13.30 kick off.

What ever money they get it’s not something to be happy about, where do they go and how much do they have to spend to get a player like Fernandes who has literally carried that team for the last five years? You should be keeping hold of your best players and building a squad. If they did sell him would you trust the hierarchy at the swamp to recruit replacements? I very much doubt it.

I think some of their fans genuinely believed they’d get £100-150m for him, but no one was ever going to pay that. £80m is actually a good price given his age, but as he’s their best player by some distance they’ll find it hard to replace him.

 

[mexico1970]

£200 million and no less for the Portuguese rodent, if they wangle that price they need looking at :)

When that bloke who knows about contracts from Saudi Jacob’s, his name, said a team was interested in Kdb last year, he said they would pay £ 50m, so why Fernandes is anywhere more than that, no idea.
