You say that but look at us post Fergie, so many unnecessary signings purely for marketing purposes, shirt sales, and to prove that we can still bring in top talent (even when they don't fit our system)

agree, seems like were trying to repeat the RVP-style impact with no thought to long-term squad management or wages

Sanchez
Falcao
Cavani
Bastian

The only one that really worked was Zlatan for a short time
Gotta stop buying these world class players nearing on retirement

They really dragged out this appointment

Sounds exciting, heard comparisons to Cavani?

I thought he was the next aguero?

I have no idea tbh

Sounds like the sort of ST we should be looking at

Think I’d rather Kane for that much though. We signed Sancho for around the same who was far more established, same age, better league etc.

Kane's injury record really concerns me

julian alvarez was the one getting compared to aguero no? or was it also nunez

Tbh you could throw Pogba into that list, we never really had a system that worked for him

di maria -> although he was still good after leaving us, we just didnt utilize him great and he never was meant to play in the PL

even RVP was like that, but he had proven PL experience, was coming off his best season, and was a good fit with Rooney. we had a system/plan that made sense under SAF.

Four years..

The best appointment we probably could’ve made. But he is only one man and he only isn’t going to instantly transform us. It’ll be gradual.

The real question is when do you sell Maguire

The question is who would buy him

2 weeks of 'coming soon' rumours.

this is the least smooth appointment. seems like the woodwards and glazers dont want to give ten hag control over key stuff.
