    Missing out on De Ligt hurts. He would instantly have been our best defender.

    Yeah would be a shame if we don’t get him, because of taking so long to get rid of AWB and McTominay+Lindelof (who should’ve been sold 3 seasons ago). I know Yoro was one of those deals that had to happen fast, but it would’ve been smarter to first get a more experienced CB. And De Ligt would’ve been a great deal for how experienced and still kinda young he is.

    Now we swapped our most experienced defender Varane for an 18 year old talent.

    if our midfield is the same last last year, Yoro is going to get taken to the cleaners.

    Chelsea - new gk
    Arsenal - that defender yesterday but have merino rumours which would potentially be a perfect signing to pair with rice/odegaard
    Spurs - zero
    Liverpool - zero
    City - savio. who does look sick.
    Newcastle - zero

    definitely been a snooze.

    Feel like new FFP rules in the prem are making it quite difficult for a lot of clubs to do business.

    You lot too negative. Kobbie was only 18 too lest you forget.

    They are actively building a skyscraper before our eyes and you're complaing cause there's still some scaffolding up. These things take time.

    It is a team of wonderkids. It's the United way from the Busby Babes and the Class of 92.

    And in this modern age with fees so inflated, it is the best way to run a club (without just being City levels of corrupt) as we've seen with Madrid.

    It’s brilliant to sign these wonder kids but the here and now is we have a paper thin squad already hurt with injuries.

    Do we risk the development of those young players by forcing them to play too often & burnout like so many have before?

    That defence has somehow managed to downgrade lol

    IF Shaw stays fit, that's ok - but its a big if. F***ed if not
    Same for Licha
    Yoro/Maguire - Yoro looks sharp but young and injured, Maguire is alright but not a world beater
    Dalot/Mazraoui - absolutely f***ing terrible
