Clear out?

Who's going to pay anything for

Mount
Maguire
Lindelof
Malacia
Bayindir
Casemiro
Eriksen
Antony
Shaw
Zirkzee
...etc

They're fucked! Can't sell anybody because nobody wants their shit and can't buy because they've got no money!

Fucking glorious!

Don't know Southgate could get them to 10th with that squad

Loving the work Ineos have done so far, bringing Ole back would be a genius move, better tie him down to a 5 year contract before someone else takes him.

10 million quid.
That's how much the Adidas contract will drop by.

But, it's not just the sponsorship money, 4 home games plus 1 qualifier (if they are lucky) Plus all the TV money they will miss out on.

It's why they don't want to finish top 8 in there Europa league they get 2 more games if they finish 9th = more money

 

[shemnel]

i think they've turned a corner.

i think they've turned a corner.

Hopefully at 80mph and straight into a brick wall

Not only can’t they get money for any of that dross, but who is going to “downgrade” for pennies on their current contract dollar?

There are quite a few players there who have peaked as far as club, league and pay, so why go backwards from here?

“I’m willing to fight for my place. This is the best club in the world!”

You can already hear it!

Kobbie Magoo's FA cup goal has now been upgraded to "One of greatest goals in FA Cup history" according to MEN's Samuel Luckhurst on SSN.

Time to wheel this out again...

Sir Jim Ratcliffe holds a significant financial interest in a business that
produces rubbish, pumps out toxic waste and grossly overpays underperforming
employees.

He also owns the Ineos chemical company.

I don't think they've got a chance of top 4, they're crap with or without ten hag. they're not 14th crap but not close to top 4 despite the most expensive squad in history. The ones in charge have to know that. They cannot be deluded enough to think they've got a top 4 squad and as much as I'd love to see them in a relegation fight, that's never going to happen.

There is a built-in buyer, if the Glazers want to sell, and at this point they’ve made it clear United is merely a halo debt dump company that services their other sports franchise costs.

…but zero debt City are the big FFP/PSR threat!

YCMIU!

I’ve had similar thoughts but won’t bother adding a reply as you’ve covered it brilliantly!
