And, worryingly, for the team formerly known as the league leaders, this isn't even Manchester City at their best.

Excellent!

Had to actually lol this morning when the BBC said United have been jealous of City's spending power !!

Well done again The Mail.

Huge graphic of Premier League owners/majority shareholders...

All centred around the excitement of Qatar 'investors' buying United.

Apparently Khaldoon owns us now.

I'm sure he will be delighted his pay grade has been bumped.

Marcus Rashford's Nou Camp exploits prove he is currently the world's best​

The world's best what?

He’s generally very good at analysing data but for some reason he’s pulled a conclusion out of nowhere.

He’s modelling based on a a correlation of wages to points i.e. higher wages equals higher points. We don’t fit that model properly as we’re over performing on points. Instead of questioning his analysis he’s decided we’re cheating by paying additional wages off the books based on being charged with the premier league. He mentions Pep but the final conclusion is shocking.

For me he’s straying dangerously close to defamation. Most of the reporting on the PL charges while sensationalist have also reported largely on known facts, charges, potential punish and history. He has taken the allegation that up to 2015/16 we didn’t report the full wages therefore as we are over performing his model in different seasons he implies we’re not reporting our full wages.

It’s bizarre. He would have been far better looking at whether Pep’s teams are statistical anomalies. Can’t see the club doing much about it but it shows how damaging the effects of the charges have been.

:)

Fuck me. Wages to points. Is that thing now? Give me a couple of hours and I could pick out some ludicrous statistics like, for example, commercial income to points, that show Liverpool, Chelsea, United, Arsenal and Spurs have all been inflating sponsorship over the last five years. And many more ridiculous statistics besides I imagine.

Rashford plays for utd and thats all you need to know about his world star qualities. He plays for Utd so gets favourable coverage, more than favourable. Same with all the media teams.

for me its never the player, its always the manager. Sterling is only as good as Pep made the team he played in. Rashford was shite until a good manager came around.

But some idiot club will come along, believing all the hype and pay Countinho money for him to find he's nowhere near as good as ALL of the media say.

It seems like only our club ignore that shit.

 

[jim tolmies perm]

Not even bothered clicking on coz he's clearly another rag shill.
Hope it's brought to the club's attention..
