And the manager was replaced because of it.
Stop being such a Nancy and grow up. Do you honestly think we brought in Pep fucking Guardiola to piss our pants and panic buy in response to United?
For as bad as we were last year, United were worse. Their squad is filled with hasbeens and neverwasbeens and Mourinho bringing in some random defender from Villa Real for £StupidMillion, an aging Zlatan Ibrahimovic who is losing his touch in every way except his ability to alienate his teammates and Mkhitaryan, who had two poor years and one great one, isn't going to suddenly make them Champions.
Revive? Ageing Squad? Give over. "We" aren't going to do shit to the squad, that's Pep Guardiola's remit and he's the best in the world at doing it. So far we've signed Gundogan, a top class midfielder - Nolito, a goal scoring winger - Zinchenko, a swiss army knife youngster and a few others. That's certainly no worse than United have done, in fact, we've spent far less than they have and so I would argue we've done better.
It's 13 days into the transfer window and City still remain linked to Stones/Sane and a bunch of others. Either which way, if you don't think Pep can build a winner then you are severely underestimating him as a manager.
