So the 80 million pound player they got for 40 million is off and was hugely overpriced, who would have thought at the time the way the media was bigging him up (When will they learn, even Everton did not want him after his loan there)

Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek has completed his loan move to Eintracht Frankfurt.

The 26-year-old will join the Bundesliga side for the rest of the season, with an option to turn the transfer into a permanent deal.

The fee is set at 11m euros (£9.5m), with an additional 3m euros (£2.6m) in add-ons

Kavah is an embarrassment. The level of sports journalism is rock bottom.

I'd question the "younger" bit of that, looks about 40

Did you lot know he was shortlisted for the Ballon d'or in 2019?
Either his fall from grace was unprecedented or this popularity contest is just that.

He was part of the Ajax side that got to the CL semis, hence his shortlisting.

His decline has been ridiculous. He needed to play in a tactically astute set up and he’s just had chaos.

Nobody does well at the rags anymore. They poison players. Just look at Elanga, Perreira and even Daley Blind.

They are far better away for the shithole in Trafford.

That's because at the rags, average to good players are labelled as world class & to sell the brand are the next George Best, Duncan Edwards etc etc. It's like raggies have manic depression, one minute their players are world class & the next they aren't even championship level.

Based on GD last season they should have finished in 7th not 3rd, again just due to fluking numerous undeserved narrow wins whilst being outplayed by the opposition team.

Donut thief bailed them out time after time
No chance with nonana

Was that when Real Madrid were after him & the season after Ajax got to the semi finals of UCL

Mate as much as I’d like to believe this shit it’s not really true is it.
Would go down well on rawk though.

Villa just played into utds hands, playing a high defensive line against kick n' rush football. No different to how Pep plays against the rags.

Harry or Brian?
