BeIn sports commentators excusing Fellaini's flailing hands because he's a tall player....

Christ they are apperently after spending big on Pickford if the donut thief goes. They never learn in identifying average players on stupid money to replace the ones they already have, they need new centre halves, full backs and a striker but they want to spend over 70 million on a keeper? Surely there must be an Ederson equivalent developing in one of the leagues in Europe that they can get in and concentrate where the money really needs spending.



What a mess it’s going to take years to sort where they are out.

Thing is they don't need an Ederson they need a keeper in the traditional sense if De Gea leaves , otherwise they will need to spend 100s millions on building a new team that can play out from the back effectively, and that will take years to get . Ederson is a unique player, we needed him and in some ways he needed us to fulfill his style of keeping .

I think they need to spend the best part 500 million just to get anywhere near our first 11's ability regardless who their keeper is. To buy a new back 4 will cost upwards of 200 million alone, maybe 250.

Think give poch 100m and that rags teams he will make them a top 2 team in 3 seasons.

Spending money wont solve their issues as over £400M shows.

Mourinho is finished in the game over here. Tactically shite, no fear factor from the opposition anymore and he has no respect from players whatsoever.

Until they sack him they are fucked.

Every chance they’ll be 9th come 10pm Wednesday night. Leicester and Bournemouth have winnable games. United have arsenal. :-)

"Transition" to mid table obscurity :)

They do need to spend 500 million on that team just to stay where they are or get a small gain in performance , there are players in that team that should not still be playing for them, they are so far behind the times that beside money it's time that is also a problem .
As they have proved just throwing money at a problem doesn't work, they need time to build and thankfully they don't have that .
