Matthijs de Ligt

Can’t understand why he’d go to Utd. The club is an embarrassment and everyone knows it. If I had my pick of elite clubs they wouldn’t even be on my list of possibles.
Twat of an agent that City won't even entertain but United will. He's a money grabber who will be agitating the player for a move in 3 summers time no matter where he signs. We won't tolerate that, United will. He's a good player, as were Sanchez and Fred, but United have no system in place thanks to Woodward calling all the shots so De Ligt will not be able to stop the tide in that shit team.
 
Our squad is good but no doubt could get better. Sitting there and saying it's great and we don't need to sign top players is exactly what will stop us from progressing further. Had we payed the fee van dijk would have been ours and the title race this season would be non existent. Had we payed up for mbappe we would have aguero replacement set for the next 10 years. Had we payed up for de Jong our midfield would have been taken to the next level. if we payed up for de ligt again our defense would be set for years to come.

Just because Sanchez and Fred worked out doesn't mean it's a viable long term policy and that every player we won't pay up for wouldn't have improved us. Wether we like it or not our perception as a club will always be that of a money club and players know we can afford it. We aren't the only top team in the world and we can't say that their shit or have a weak mentality if they join another team.
Let’s say we didn’t sign Van Dijk, De Jong, De Ligt or Mbappe and we won back to back league titles, back to back league cup titles, the FA Cup and a charity shield - would you think we made the right decision?
 
If he goes to Utd then he's silly however it's more likely Ajax wanting a bidding war?

yes we did really well but with just some those players it would be a lot better if not near unstoppable. So in that context yeah it wasn't the right decision. That isn't to take away from our accomplishment and achievements but you should always be of the mentality of how to improve and what you could have done to be even better.

I love how people think any team let alone us could get all those players with the ones we already have and still manage FFP.

As for the 2nd bolded park contrary to what you think we can't afford it. Even PSG is having a hard time. Sure they have Neymar and Mbappe along with some other good players, but they have to do things like sign Buffon and Herrera on a free while playing that youngster who's name escapes me against the rags who gave away the 1st goal. Also having Choupo-Moting as the backup striker. They may have a good 11 or 12 players, but they don't have a deep a squad as people think. We have a deep squad that helps us when there are injures and also helps compete for all trophies. If you want all those you suggested we couldn't pay half the players we already have.

That isn't to take away from our accomplishment and achievements but you should always be of the mentality of how to improve and what you could have done to be even better.

Just made history winning the domestic quad and “we did really well” also buying some of these players will make us unstoppable! What better than the season we just had? As you have seen at the rags buying players doesn't guarantee success or trophies. Trust the club seems they are doing alright. :)

I think you mean "could be"

As for improving the squad, yes that has to be done but we have people paid to do that and so far, they seem to be doing OK
