It’s a player who will plaster over their issues. He’s a good player but they will get a year or so out of him then be stuck with a big wage bill.

It’s a backward step & long may it continue :-)

Eriksen has been a good (never great) player in the past but he is now over 30 and past his peak, even before his recent illness his form had dipped. A few good games for Brentford is not enough. This is another desparate move by United.

Its a punt for sure. Kind of where they are as a club

 

[TonyM]

The marketing men at united will be rubbing their hands if Eriksen keels over on the pitch. Only half joking unfortunately.

(I hope he has a long and unsuccessful life ahead of him)

He should have showed some loyalty to brentford , they gave him the way back into football whilst the rags waited to see how he was

 

[dadnlad]

they've done it again 150 million pound player for free
i dont know just how they do it

Their sheer stupidity, hypocrisy, and irony as United fans, and the amount of money United spend and waste is lost on them, bar the odd sensible and honest few.

Don’t be surprised if they activate Christensen’s £416m release clause, such is their profligacy in the transfer market.

In the past 5 years in ‘net spend’ terms we’ve had a negative £173m


That’s a ‘loss’ per season on transfers of less than £35m - omg it’s insane!!!!

Compare with United’s last 5 seasons … the figures are horrendous.

But yes, City’s spending is insane say the United fans…

what about the £5 billion of agent and signing-on fees that clearly aren't included

The rags time at the top is over and
they will have to live with it.
I never thought that I would see this change, not in my lifetime...

 

[Tuearts right boot]

He's a decent proffesional and fair play to him, he's gone for the chance of champions league football. It's an rank outside chance mind but a chance non the less. He would have been far more a decent proffesional if he's stayed at Brentford and paid them back. Still like the guy.....

That’s another ‘insane’ thing, the ramblings of insane red shirted fans.

That expression says " I fucking hate those noisy neighbours ".

Too bad you bitter old drunken twat , plenty more suffering to come.

 

[abu13]

Well that’s fucking shit. Why was no-one else in for him?

I thought the same but in the cold light of day he is 33 years old, had a heart attack on the pitch last year and I cant see how he possibly fits into a pressing style that Tent Peg wants to play. Interesting that as a free transfer it was only between Brentford and the Rags, nobody else went for him and i suspect with good reason.

 

[abu13]

Heres a thought, they passed on the chance to sign him when he left Spurs, if he wasnt good enough then what has changed? He is older and as we all know has suffered major health issues. I cant see anything that is more attractive about him as a player other than it being a free transfer.
