Who is Joe Rindl? Must be someone off here taking the piss.

Rags on FB making excuses. I said I would be fuming if we had paid £72 million for a 10 goal a season striker!

Think it was 9 mate

There must be plenty of chants that could made from the audio alone.

I thought he was quoting directly from the audio!

I see United now have

- £50m keeper, to replace the one on £350k per week
- £50m uncapped right back
- £65m centre back alongside a £40m £400k per week centre back who’s a proven winner, keeping out the world record £85m centre back
- £70m defensive midfielder
- £55m centre mid on £325k per week, keeping out Brazilian £50m midfielder
-£60m Captain in midfield
-£85m winger
-£75m winger
- £325k per week winger
-£72m striker keeping a £56m one out of the team

The Glazers just don’t spend enough money. That’s the problem

Biggest mug off job since Maguire .

Let’s hope so. Wish version of Haaland up too and wish version of Prince/Nani on the rw. For the bargain sum of £162 million.

I read it and laughed out loud.

I feel a bit sorry for the Danish kid to be honest. With that fee the expectation is going to be massive and what would normally be a very good season for a youngster - say 25 appearances and 10 goals - will probably be viewed as failure.

The move will probably set him up financially for life but may blight his career.

if Hojlund can hit double digit goals next season taht will be brilliant and money well spent

Who's being a double agent on there?

Hilarious, imagine being happy with your striker scoring 10 goals.

We got Haaland AND Alvarez for around the same price.

Yes, but I thats because we inflated the market by paying those prices (probably).
