But Mancini only got the job because Jose turned us down in favour of Real Madrid. I can assure you they absolutely wanted to go down that route.

Then it would have been a very big mistake that would have taken 2 or 3 years away from what we had in mind with the Spanish vision and DNA and Pep,

Don't get me wrong, Jose is a great coach, But he's bad long-term for your club because of the damage with his instant success and Big money spending with no future planning

He talks bollocks and he is just blagging it. It wasn’t long ago he was saying the same about the sheikh

Donny Beek, an 80m player bargained at 40m, he knows about as much as I do.Watch him and the other nomark do the transfer show, its absolutely comedy gold, watching them waffle for an hour with no knowledge is an art in itself.

Dribbling from their mouths as they speak lies to appease the red masses.
Truly awful to watch

I think it was up to £5 7s 6d last time I heard.

They were an actual group PB, local titans of industry as I recall?

How can the Sheikh Jizzy bid now be acceptable?
The cat is well and truly out of the bag, his photographs that are now in the media, are no longer in black and white.
Even one in traditional garb is now out there.
They won't want that sort of oil money investment now would they?

Apparently they're set to trigger a 1 year extension for that kid who looks like Sideshow Bob and celebrates like he's just scored the winner when scoring a consolation goal in a 3-1 home defeat to the mighty Brighton.

How come it's only united that seem to have this 1 year extension thing on players contracts? I never hear of any other club having such an arrangement.

It's presumably part of their contract negotiating strategy

Back in the day where we’d get some awful groups, Madrid, Dortmund and Ajax. We didn’t have much luck in the competition back then.

Ajax game at home was a fucking joke. Ferguson would have given us more if he'd reffed the game.
