See you in 5 years then, if maybe Rashford will be the player you're hoping for. You don't have a clue how a big club works. Just look at your username - typical video game manager.
Do you talk about big clubs such as Bayern who had Müller as an automatic starter from the age of 19, or maybe you mean they're a small club? Or what about the small club Real Madrid who had a 20 year old Higuain play 30-35 games a season, most of them from start? Or are we talking about the mini-club PSG whose been letting Veratti run their midfield since he was 19/20?

Now please tell me, how many big clubs in the world right now have 35 year olds as an integral part of their attack?

If you're going that far back in time then I will use Ronaldo as an example. 34 goals in 37 games at the age of 19 for Barcelona. Rooney, 16 goals in 36 games when he was 19. Cronaldo, 9 goals in 33 games as a 20 year old. Thank God we let him play and not some 35 year old winger, eh?

Rashford will get enough games in the Europa league, league cup and FA cup and Rashford doesn't even come close to the players you mentioned in terms of talent.

I think my 8 year old might be the ultimate muppett. He was so excited about this signing. And now that it's done, he has already moved onto Pogba

fecking hilarious how the Blueshite give it large over buying the league due to Ibra receiving 250k a week.

Anyone paying £42m for Mangala, one of the worst CB ive seen, literally has no right to even debate it

a. Both Hazard and Gundogan were under existing contracts with their clubs. Announcing their transfer is more disrespect to the departing club fans. Zlatan is a free agent.

b. In case of Hazard he was dicking around with multiple clubs all summer. The whole "blue or red" nonsense. Zlatan never once dropped any hints about joining any other club but us since his farewell at PSG. There were rumors of him going back to Sweden and he shut them right off.

c. This is also okay because Zlatan.

Stayed out of the thread all day, still can't believe it. Zlatan will play for my team, finally! Unreal. If i was a norwegian i'd prob shed a tear but i'm a swede so none of that.

Well Gundogan had actually signed for city. He announced it 5 mins before the club announced it

I think you will find Zlatan is still a PSG player for a few more hours
